Heat Trace Installation For Your Solar Heating System

By Dorothy Perry


The are two things that are unavoidable, death and taxes. Although you can t avoid them, there are things that can be done to prolong the inevitable, with death, it s eating healthy and exercising. When it comes to tax however, it s a bit tricky because if it s done wrong, you go to jail. Depending on where you live, solar heaters can make the taxman pass turn a blind eye and here s how with heat trace installation.

The real benefit of using equipment like solar water heaters comes in the form of reduced carbon dioxide emissions. And because of this, the money invested in solar heater panels could be returned when selling your business. The principle is not only applicable for commercial use but can also be applied in the private/domestic market. Where the value of the house and return on investment when selling that house will be much more prominent compared to other houses in the market of the same kind without the solar heater installed.

With solar water heating panels, the energy drawn from the sun is used to heat up a water tank where all the hot water is stored and used when in demand. This kind of panels including the tank are smaller than their PV counterparts and as a result, the amount of water that is available is limited. But its range can be extended with the inclusion of a boiler which can serve as a backup of sorts.

As mentioned earlier, depending on the country or region you and your home happen to be based in, there are tax incentives that can be provided by the government such as reductions, discounts or even payment for reducing your carbon footprint which the installation of a solar heater will do.

A central theme from any article about the commercial use of solar heaters or solar products in general is the cost saving opportunities available. And the potential for the highest output at the lowest running cost which is enticing to any business owner looking to cut down costs. On that note, it is best to do some research and look for an installer that is reputable and has a track record of how long they have been working with the renewable energy production because this technology is costly, and hiring inexperienced contractors can have expensive consequences.

A new hot water cylinder is often required and installing it needs space. Space that is often not available due to the initial floor plan of the house not catering for such a provision. The need for a hot water cylinder specially designed or altered for solar heater panels means that costs saved in heating are often reused in ensuring that these panels are maintained on a regular basis in order to ensure they work properly.

Those are not the only factors that limit solar heating products. Because the industry of renewable energy is relatively new, there hasn t been enough investment and as such, economic barriers persist in the development and innovation of solar heating and similar products. The lack of solar heater installers and other secondary or tertiary service industries that are a result of the yet to grow industry make solar heaters a hard sell.

But the barriers are only temporary as with time the economic advantages will take precedence, increasing production of goods and ultimately profits. Which in all honesty, is the bottomline when it comes to business.
