New “Sustainability Heroes”

January 25th, 2009

Every time someone chooses to install one of our solar water heaters in Maryland I feel it’s my duty to highlight them as “Sustainability Heroes.” After all these are people who have chosen to take action and do something about their energy consumption.

New Sustainability Heroes This couple in Howard County, Maryland installed a solar water heater a couple weeks ago and here’s what they have to say…

“We decided on a solar water heater because we feel it is the right thing to do. We believe everyone needs to do their part to reduce the energy crisis. Our gas and electric bill is $260 per month…we already heat our home with a wood stove and the solar water heater will help to reduce our bill even more.”

“A good friend of ours argued that our money would be better invested in an IRA, but this doesn’t matter to us…it will be more satisfying to see our energy bills go down.”

Way to go!…Congratulations on taking action.

Is Saving Money the Only Reason?

January 23rd, 2009

“Is saving money the only reason why I am interested in solar?”

This is a good question to ask yourself if you are considering a solar water heater for your home. While the savings benefits are significant over a long period of time a solar water heater corrects one of the least efficient areas of your home. By using the sun’s clean, 100% renewable energy to heat your water you have made a tremendously positive impact in helping the environment. You are reducing tons of CO2 emissions which means less pollution and damage to you world. This is a wonderful benefit!

Making the decision to switch to a solar water heater does make financial sense, but should that be the only reason? There are a lot of things we buy that don’t save us money and don’t help the environment. Maybe it’s time to take a closer look at why we are truly interested in renewable energy investments…like solar water heaters.

Change is Hard, But You Are Not Alone

January 22nd, 2009

Financially speaking you are currently on track to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars over the course of your life in energy expenses. This is money that you could be using to help achieve long term financial goals like college funds, retirement, or putting the money to better use in other investments to help build wealth.

Change is Hard, But You Are Not Alone

From an environmental standpoint the energy we currently use requires the consumption of fossil fuels. This consumption is directly responsible for things like global warming, pollution and many health problems.

Changing this pattern is hard, but the good news is that it is entirely possible for you, your family and friends to reverse your current course and create very dynamic positive results in your personal finances and simultaneously benefit the environment.

This Annapolis, Maryland area family made the change.
