SOLAR

In Australia we are blessed with bountiful sunshine which can be easily and cost-effectively harnessed to supply you with hot water, power or both.

Did you know that you can offset your electricity costs and start supplying your local ‘grid’ with energy (which you get paid for!) from as little as $6,000.00 (after Government cash-backs)  . . . . add up your annual electricity bills and see how quickly that would pay for itself! 

We have extensive experience installing solar power systems in rural and outlying areas (including low maintenance solutions in Aboriginal communities).  And after exhaustive research into the most aesthetic and economical solar hot water systems available today,
we have agreed to become the mid North Coast distributor for the exciting new Apricus product

So whether you are looking for a way to be more carbon neutral, for a power solution to make your dream tree change a reality, or just a clean, green hot water alternative, we can tailor a solar solution to your individual situation and needs.


GRID CONNECT
By purchasing solar panels to be fitted to your roof, and a Grid-Interactive Inverter, you can become pro-active in creating energy both for your home or business and the needs of the
local community.  The power created by your solar panels is metered, and so is the energy
you use.  By working hand in hand with your local energy supply company, you only pay for what you consume over and above what you produce.  If you produce more than you use,
then you are paid for the power you feed back into the grid.

So we can create a system that meets or exceeds your energy usage, dependant on whether you want to simply off-set your energy costs, or make a very real contribution to the planet
in this time of climate change.

SOLAR HOT WATER
Hot water has traditionally been heated by burning wood, coal, oil, gas or electricity.  Which means that our taken-for-granted hot water is burning millions of tonnes of increasingly scarce and expensive carbon-based fossil fuels EVERY DAY.  We all know that we need to limit our carbon emissions and become carbon neutral.  And soon this will be a Governent directive as the Global community gets serious about the challenge of Climate Change.  The simplest, easiest and cheapest way to do something positive for the planet is to switch to solar hot water!

The Apricus AP solar collector is a highly efficient thermal solar panel, suitable for both domestic and commercial heating.  Using evacuated tubes (which not only absorb more sunlight, but are more aesthetically pleasing than old-style flat panels), together with heat pipes, glass wool insulation and a ground mounted hot water tank, the AP system represents the very latest in thermal solar technology (choose either gas or electricity booster).


SOLAR PUMPS
As Rural Australians know only too well, electric pumps use a lot of power! By harnessing the sun to serve your pump’s energy needs you can make a big dent in your power bill, and what
is more, be sure of water when the grid supply goes down in adverse weather conditions.  Crucial if you have small children, sick family members or you just like your daily shower!
