as homeowners continue to seek ways to reduce their energy consumption and lower their utility bills, solar water heaters have become an increasingly popular option
these systems use energy from the sun to heat the water in your home, providing a significant source of renewable energy and a decrease in reliance on fossil fuels
in this article, we will conduct an energy savings analysis for homeowners considering solar water heaters to determine the potential benefits and cost savings associated with these systems
our study will involve multiple variables including the solar water heater's capacity, home sunlight exposure, and family water consumption
we will also need to account for the upfront cost of the system, which can vary depending on the size and brand
assuming a typical sized solar water heater with a capacity of 100 gallons, costing around $3,000 for installation, we can estimate the energy savings potential
according to the us department of energy's data,.
