To complement the energy efficient ICF
structure we can provide for you - we are also pleased to be able to offer
EnerWorks Solar Water Heating Appliances. These appliances are suitable
for both new or replacement residential applications and operate as the
primary source of your hot water. Your existing electric, natural gas,
propane or oil hot water heater then functions as a backup heating source. For
a list of approved Enerworks Installers -

An average household can generate an
average of 2 tonnes of carbon dioxide per year using traditional water heating
sources. The use of Enerworks Solar Water Heating Appliances can help to
reduce emissions of these harmful greenhouse gases into the atmosphere and help
to limit the effects of climate change.

Solar Hot Water Appliances are one of
the most cost-effective renewable energy systems on the market today. In
North American, an average person can use approximately 70 litres of hot water
per day. This equals approx. 3600 kwH use per year for water heating.
A home with a Solar Hot Water Appliance can save a family of four approximately
50% on their hot water costs, and helps contribute to a cleaner environment.
If you participate in the Natural Resources Canada's ecoENERGY home
retrofit program, you may be eligible to receive a $1,250 rebate from your
purchase of a Solar Hot Water Appliance. For residents of Ontario, the
provincial government will match this incentive, for a total rebate of $2,500 if
you participate in the ecoENERGY home retrofit program.

Announced
March 31, 2009:
"The new EcoEnergy program offers a $1,250 rebate, up dramatically from $500
under the old program. A matching rebate from the province means the
purchase of a residential solar hot-water system can get back $2,500 on a
purchase that ranges in cost from $6,000 to $9,000, including installation.
"It's meant to increase the market penetration of renewable technology, and
specifically solar hot water," explained Louise Roux at the ministry's office of
energy efficiency.
On top
of all rebates, Raitt reminded homeowners they can qualify next tax season for
the Home Renovation Tax Credit, which amounts to getting 15 per cent back from
the cost of a home renovation in 2009, up to a maximum of $1,350."
