Solr4u - Who are we and what we are about !
Hi all,
So you are aware Solr4u has been around for yonks (1995).
We are a team that specialize in Solar Water Heating.
Unlike solar electric, solar water heating is most often a lower capital
and a great place to enter your solar journey, or simply leave it and just that !
So;
1) Solar water heating to heat your hot water cylinder and help you reduce energy costs. Water heating if often considerable chunk of your power bill. furthermoe, going solar is great for reducing reliance on the countries energy needs.
2) Solar water heating to heat your Swimming Pool (and or spa pool). A solar heated swimming pool more means longer swimming season with minimal ongoing running costs. Don't wait until spring install now so ready to go ! !
Tauranga based, so give the local team with lots of experience a call, and we will provide a free site visit and evaluation for what you need.
It's easier than you may think ! Often installed in a day and bingo, you are up and going with solar.
Regards

PS: If you have a "solar electric" system and find it struggles to provide enough energy, it could be because it's has to heat water as well. A single panel solar water heating unit will take a lot of that load, freeing up solar electric to provide electricity for the rest of the house ! Talk to us today
