However, if you can go green and get a good return on your investment, it\u2019s even better. Since water heating is the largest use for energy in the hospitality industry (it makes up nearly a third of total energy usage) virtually anyone can take advantage of <a title=\"COMMERCIAL SOLAR: AN IMPORTANT PIECE OF THE POWER-SAVING PUZZLE FOR BUSINESSES\" href=\"articles\/commercial-solar-power-saving-puzzle\/\">commercial solar hot water systems<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Why Choose Commercial Solar Hot Water Systems for Hospitality?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Sure, hot water may seem <em>complimentary<\/em> for guests, but hotel management knows that every single shower and laundry cycle counts toward a steeply rising utility bill. Of course, in the hospitality industry, you can\u2019t ask customers and guest to sacrifice comfort by using less hot water and power. You can, however, strategically utilize sustainable solar systems which can lower expenses without guests even knowing it.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few reasons why\u00a0<a title=\"SOLAR ENGINEERING\" href=\"services\/solar-engineering\/\">going solar<\/a> and choosing to use commercial solar hot water systems is a smart choice, especially for businesses in the hospitality industry:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>It\u2019s cost-effective<\/strong>. Commercial solar water systems are one of the most cost-effective ways to generate hot water for your hospitality business year-round.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Offers a solid return on investment<\/strong>. Installing solar for your building is one of the safest investments a business can make. The system can typically pay for itself within 3 to 5 years and can last for 30 years or more.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Provides clean energy.<\/strong> On average, traditional electric water heaters can emit as much as two tons of CO2 into the atmosphere. Solar water heaters use clean power and produce zero greenhouse gas emissions.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Take advantage of tax credit<\/strong>. Solar water heaters qualify for a 30 percent Renewable Energy Federal Tax Credit from the government and some local utility rebates.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Go green<\/strong>. Get your business involved in the green energy movement. Switching to a solar hot water heater is the perfect first step toward a greener company.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Commercial Solar Hot Water Systems (SHW) for All Types of Businesses<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><a title=\"BUSINESSES RUN ON SUNSHINE- ADDRESSING 4 ON-SITE COMMERCIAL SOLAR INSTALLATION CHALLENGES\" href=\"articles\/commercial-solar-installation-challenges\/\">Commercial solar photovoltaic (PV) technologies<\/a> produce clean electricity for businesses allowing them to generate and store their own power on-site. Solar hot water systems (SHW), on the other hand, capture thermal energy from the sun and transfer it into a building\u2019s hot water supply, rather than converting solar energy into electricity.<\/p>\n<p>Whether you\u2019re using hot water for handwashing, hot showers, or high-volume commercial dishwashers, all types of businesses use hot water. This makes both solar hot water systems and solar photovoltaic (PV) technologies a smart choice for any industry.<\/p>\n<p>Questions?
