If you are interested in the various solar initiatives across the U.S. and in the State of Florida, visit the Web sites below. Solar energy provides the best hope for our future energy needs, outside of nuclear. You can be a part of the growing solar energy innovation by installing the HyBan solar booster for your existing home water heater and save hundreds of dollars. If you have a pool or spa, you can have nice, toasty warm water (up to 102 degrees) in either by adding the Xolarator solar pool heater, again saving hundreds per month in heating your pool or spa.
Both systems carry lifetime warrantees, and both systems meet federal and state requirements to qualify for the solar program rebates available.

There are significant gains to be realized from the deployment of solar energy collection and distribution systems. One statistic that is very interesting is that in just 22 days, the Sun deposits an amount of energy into our atmosphere equivalent to ALL the remaining fossil fuels on the Earth. That's a lot of energy. Maybe it's time to start getting your share of what the sun is giving us free of charge.
Another benefit of converting to the sun's energy for your home is that it's clean — no carbon dioxide, no carbon monoxide, no soot, no man-induced weather factors.
If you live anywhere in the U.S.A., there are seasons that are favorable to the collection and production of solar heat. But to realize the best results, you'll need to find a company that has experience in the installation and maintenance of various systems. Whoever you choose to deal with, make sure they have the proper training, certifications and licenses, and experience to handle the work you need done.
