Solar Domestic Hot Water

Watershed is pleased to be managing the installation of one of the largest Solar Domestic Hot Water systems in Toronto. The large-scale commercial system is slated to become operational in the first quarter of 2010 and will provide up to 40% of the hot water for a 128-unit midrise apartment building.

The system uses 100 evacuated-tube type solar panels and a drain-back arrangement to ensure maximum solar gain during sunny periods, and freeze-protection when the sun goes down. A monitoring system will provide a web-based interface for the system so that energy production can be constantly monitored and compared to projected performance. Since 1977 Watershed has installed or project managed dozens of solar thermal installations. We would be happy to discuss your project, please contact us
