You’re paying too much for hot water

Wasted energy is wasted money

Traditional hot water systems waste energy every day, costing you up to $4 per day ($1,500 per year).

Electricity rates are as high as 40c/kWh, and gas prices are soaring—making heating water more expensive than ever.

Unused solar power going to waste

If you have solar, why sell power back for cents when you could use it to heat your water for free?
