Powered by sunlight, Kansas is a good geographic location for effective harnessing of this natural power. One of the best advantages of solar energy is the fact that it is totally pollution free. And do not forget that, once the system is installed, it’s totally free energy and the cost of the power you produce with your solar will not rise in the future.

Different solar options-

Solar Space Heating lowers your utility bills by heating your house with air or water.  Air collectors are by far the simplest and most cost effective, but water collectors allow you to store heat for night, and works very well to heat water for your house year round.

Solar Water Heaters usually consist of 2 or 3 collectors and an 80 gallon, or larger, storage tank which heats or preheats the water for bathing, washing clothes, etc.

Photovoltaic Panels are the collectors that produce electricity from sunlight.  They have improved significantly in quality and price over the last 20 years, and have a life expectancy of 20-50 years with no moving parts and very little maintenance.

Evacuated Tubes for heating water or your house have become more popular in the last decade.  In colder climates and on overcast days, they can be even more efficient than flat plate collectors.  Water or propylene glycol can be used for heat transfer.  These work well for water heating.

Flat Plate Collectors have been the workhorse of the industry for heating water and space heating.  Constructed of aluminum, copper, and glass, they last and last and last.  In fact, we have collected quite an inventory of used water and air collectors, as well as solar glass.  Call for prices.

Now there are a lot of good ways to “do” solar.  For an interesting overview with diagrams and descriptions of the various systems, download the catalogue at www.aaasolar.com.  It also has many products and prices if you are interested in doing a system yourself.  If you take on a project and need a consultation or backup, we would be glad to assist you.
