Solar PV Systems
When you take advantage of the 30% Federal Tax Credit, now is a great time to install a Solar Photovoltaic (PV) system. The myth that New York does not receive enough sun to generate electricity via solar panels has been busted. When designed and installed properly, a Solar PV system can operate just as efficiently in Western and Central New York as any other part of the country. Contact Us for more information!
How Does Solar Work?
Photo Voltaic Cells are made of silicon, a semiconductor material. Phosphorous and boron are added to the silicon to enhance conductivity inside the cells which activates the electrons and gets them in an excited state. When electrons are activated in this way, they move across the cell into the circuit that is hooked to the solar panel bringing electricity into your home..

Solar Hot Water
Solar hot water systems (SHW) convert sunlight into heat and transfer the heat with a fluid through the solar collectors on the roof to the water in your house. This saves you money by reducing the amount your water heater needs to run by 50 to 80%. With the Federal Tax Credit, now is the most affordable time in history to install a Solar Hot Water system. Find out how much you can save on a Solar Hot Water system through a consultation. Contact Us for your FREE ESTIMATE!
How Does Solar Work?
Solar hot water systems operate very simply. In your conventional hot water tank, every time you use hot water, cold water replaces that water. With a solar hot water system, every time you use hot water, hot water (sometimes hotter water) from the solar storage tank replaces the hot water. That way, your hot water heater does not need to turn on and you can take longer showers!
