Taking advantage of the state's new solar water heating incentive program, The Tradewinds, a community of condominium homes located in San Jose's Blossom valley, will soon boast the largest solar water heating project in California.
Free Hot Water, under the management of TBI Energy, will install 183 solar hot water collectors on five buildings of the complex to serve the hot water needs of its 320 residential units and sports club facility.
Breene Kerr, TBI Energy Project Director stated, “TBI Energy is excited to be a part of the largest solar thermal system yet installed under the CSI thermal program. This is a complex installation with three independent solar thermal systems serving hundreds of residents in five different buildings. TBI Energy’s extensive construction management experience along with Free Hot Water’s proven products and technology gives us the confidence that this project will be successful. California needs more installations like this one. We look forward to providing a highly visible example of why solar thermal systems should become as common in this country as the are throughout the rest of the world.”
