Solar Appliances
Reduce Your Energy Bills

The amount of energy that residential electric appliances consume is substantial. Solar appliances help to reduce the residential electricity monthly bills.

The solar residential appliances can be divided into two categories :

  1. Electric Appliances working on residential solar generated power
  2. Appliances utilizing solar radiation directly

If you live in a developed country, your appliances and home electronics are responsible for a substantial portion of your energy bills. A one time investment in solar electric appliances can save you money every month

Electric Appliances

These electrical appliances and electronics devices are operated by electricity. If you have or plan to have a residential solar generated power, make sure you have efficient appliances (in the USA these appliances carry the Energy Star Label, a label that rates the appliance energy efficiency). This is the list of energy hungry domestic appliances:

  • Clothes washers and dryers
  • Computers
  • Dishwashers
  • Home audio equipment
  • Refrigerators and freezers
  • Air Conditioners
  • Television sets and DVD players

Appliances utilizing solar radiation directly

These are appliances that are harnessing the sun radiation directly. They are not connected to the home power lines and they do not consume electricity. In effect, they use free of charge solar energy instead of using expensive fuels or expensive electricity

Benefits of solar Energy

Solar appliances provide the full set of advantages that are achievable by using solar power. Run a thorough economical analysis to see which appliances on the list are cost effective to you. In most cases, replacing the energy deficient older appliances by Energy Star Appliances and installing a solar hot water heater are the most economical choices, you should consider them as your top of the list choices.
