When renovating their dream home in Rancho Santa Fe, the Chavez family wanted to install a solar thermal system that would provide solar hot water instantly at either end of their 6,200 square foot home. After interviewing three installers, they signed a contract with Adroit Solar ; a Vaillant certified installer. Adroit was the only installer to propose a single application to meet their specific needs.
Adroit designed and specified a dual recirculation system, integrated with Vaillant® Solar System’s 990 auroTHERM® collectors. Once the design was approved and ready for build, Adroit got to work and had the solar hot water system up and running within two weeks.
Since the installation, the Chavez family has noticed a considerable difference. Teresa Chavez explains, “It’s been over six weeks since we started using our Vaillant solar water heating system. I wanted to let you know how very pleased we are with how well the system is performing. Totally trouble free, we get hot water within seconds throughout the house. It’s phenomenal.”
With an annual savings of over $750, the system is estimated to save $30,481 over 25 years and will offset 3,210 lbs of C02 per year, or 80,486 lbs of C02 over the life of the system. That is the equivalent to taking seven passenger vehicles off the road.
