Roof-integrated collectors benefit new homeowners and builders. Our roof-integrated installations merge aesthetics with function due to their sleek skylight appearance.

Our goal is to assist builders as they meet the growing green demand while providing homeowners a no-hassle way to help preserve the environment without sacrificing comfort.

Commercial projects offer the opportunity to save significantly on larger water heating applications. Beyond the financial savings, commercial entities will contribute to preserving the environment on a substantial level.

Furthermore, commercial applications maximize their return on investment with tax incentives: a 30% federal tax credit without a limit, and a 5 year rapid depreciation of the system costs.
