			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Adding a heating solution to the pool provides luxury at no ongoing cost, unlike other expensive electric or gas pool heating options. And there is no cost to the environment. Its a win win scenario.<a href="http://waldtrenewables.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/Red-saturated-solar-pool-heater-collectors1.jpg" rel="lightbox[194]"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-196" title="solar pool heater collectors" src="http://waldtrenewables.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/Red-saturated-solar-pool-heater-collectors1-300x200.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="200" /></a></p>
<p>Solar pool heaters for the Outer Banks rental home market that you will be able to get more rentals… renters who book homes in the late spring and early fall often rent solely because they will have access to a heated pool. For most homes, booking one to two additional weeks pays for the entire cost of the system.</p>
<p>Our professional, turnkey installation is quick and easy. We are a long standing, local company who understand true customer service.</p>
<p>This solution has a great price point and it just makes sense&#8230; Call us at Waldt Renewables 252.491.2204 or email us for a quote!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Bridge McDowell, President of Waldt Construction has been at the National Home Builders &#8220;Green Building&#8221; show in Raleigh this past two days. He reports a set of buzz word being used on the show floor &#8220;Extreme Energy Efficiency&#8221;.</p>
<p>&#8220;This concept is really about making homes energy independent. In lots of instances there are homes that install renewable energy solutions with the idea of generating enough energy to offset their utility demand. But without deploying simple energy efficiency measures to cut the energy demand, renewable energy solutions, like solar or wind cannot be sized appropriately.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;However, after an intense energy efficiency upgrade that significantly reduces energy consumption, it is possible to lower total energy demand and actually power the house or business with renewable energy solutions,&#8221; states Bridge.</p>
<p>At Waldt Construction and Renewables, we&#8217;ve had this concept on our radar for a while. Renewable energy solutions are often second following an &#8220;energy audit&#8221; and some minor repairs that may often cause energy consumption to drop by 20% or more. This makes sizing your solar or wind turbine solution really offer you a chance at energy independence from the utility company.</p>
<p>Waldt wants to work in partnership with you to make your renewable energy solution a success. Using clear and honest communication we will help you find the best options to be energy efficient and then energy maximum benefits from your renewable energy solutions. And the great news is&#8230; all of this is available for combined state and federal tax credits of up to 65%.</p>
<p>Call us today at 252.491.2204 or <a href="http://www.waldtrenewables.com/contact.htm" target="_blank">email</a> us.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This week in Raleigh the National Association of Homebuilders is holding their &#8220;Green Building Conference&#8221;. To make sure that Waldt Construction and Renewables is on the cutting edge of Green Building, Bridge McDowell has been at the convention.</p>
<p>One interesting find from Bridge is a solar hot water pretreatment system and tankless hot water assist system. It replaces standard high energy use electric hot water heaters. Using the sun&#8217;s energy to keep the water hot most of the time and using the tankless assist for short term high demand times. Bridge&#8217;s comment: &#8221; Great idea that has a great rate of return&#8230; &#8221;</p>
<p>Keep in mind that solar hot water technology is eligible for all of the unprecendented State and Federal tax credits&#8230; up to 65% of the total INSTALLED costs. Renewable energy solar solutions like this one can really make financial sense for the average homeowner.</p>
<p>Waldt Construction and Renewables will be happy to provide a turn key quote for you to take advantage of this type of solar solution.</p>
