There’s so much going on; come join in the summertime fun!
July 9th – Solar Open House 6:00-7:30 pm 8 Devons Wood Drive in Kittery, Maine. Come join us for our next solar open house event to view this beautifully new constructed home utilizing solar hot water panels to meet the domestic hot water demands of this family. This home has two 20 tube solar hot water evacuated tube collectors on the south facing roof to heat an 80 gallon solar storage tank. The tank is connected to the propane boiler, which serves as the back up to the system. These home owners also installed necessary wiring when building their home so that adding solar electric panels would be easy and accessible when they were ready. Come meet the homeowners to learn the processes they took to building their energy efficient home. We will be meeting at 8 Devon Woods Road in Kittery at 6pm.
