Solar Pool Heating… Affordable Luxury at No Ongoing Cost!

Tuesday, June 22nd, 2010

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.

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.

Our professional, turnkey installation is quick and easy. We are a long standing, local company who understand true customer service.

This solution has a great price point and it just makes sense… Call us at Waldt Renewables 252.491.2204 or email us for a quote!

Waldt Discovers the Latest in Green Building

Tuesday, May 18th, 2010

This week in Raleigh the National Association of Homebuilders is holding their “Green Building Conference”. To make sure that Waldt Construction and Renewables is on the cutting edge of Green Building, Bridge McDowell has been at the convention.

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’s energy to keep the water hot most of the time and using the tankless assist for short term high demand times. Bridge’s comment: ” Great idea that has a great rate of return… ”

Keep in mind that solar hot water technology is eligible for all of the unprecendented State and Federal tax credits… up to 65% of the total INSTALLED costs. Renewable energy solar solutions like this one can really make financial sense for the average homeowner.

Waldt Construction and Renewables will be happy to provide a turn key quote for you to take advantage of this type of solar solution.
