Is Solar Water Heating Available

Hi there! I know you posted your message a long time ago now...but I was curious whether you decided to go ahead with a Solar Heater? We are a well established company here in Zihuatanejo. In case you did not install solar panels at the time and would perhaps want to touch base!

My home is in Troncones. As I explored solar water heating, I heard that people’s experiences in Troncones have not been favourable. The water is well-water that is high in dissolved solids, especially alkaline salts. The salts tend to block the solar water heating systems.

In order to eliminate climate-changing GHG emissions from my propane water heating, I replaced the propane with electric water heaters.

I have bought an electric induction cooktop. When my current supply of propane is used up, I will have the tank removed and have the electric induction cooktop installed. At that point, my home will be carbon neutral.

I don’t have a car. I am trying to determine the practicality of having a BEV electric car in the Zihuatanejo area. As a “second best” I might have to settle for a PHEV.

All of these changes will increase my need for electricity, so within a year or so I will have to expand my PV solar panel array.
