Thermal Solar

Thermal solar systems, which heat water, are traditionally installed to provide hot water within a home or business or to heat a pool. PetersenDean installs both types of thermal solar systems.

Solar Water Heaters

Solar Water Heaters—also called solar domestic hot water systems—can be a cost effective way to generate hot water for your home. They can be used in any climate, and the fuel they use—sunshine—is free.

Solar water heating systems include storage tanks and solar collectors. There are two types of solar water heating systems: active, which have circulating pumps and controls, and passive, which do not.

Most solar water heaters require a well-insulated storage tank. Solar storage tanks have an additional outlet and inlet connected to and from the collector.
