Solar Water Heater Cost Information for Residents of Orlando, FL
How much does a solar water heater cost? It is a question that is being asked by an ever-growing number of people in the Orlando, FL, area as they become more interested in alternatives to fossil fuel consumption. At the outset, it is important to understand that, while solar water heaters do tend to cost more up front than gas or electric systems, “going solar” will almost invariably help you save money over the long run. According to HomeAdvisor, the average price of a solar water heater is approximately $3,500. This figure can vary as other costs generally must be taken into account, such as
- Installation expenses
- Permitting
- Future service and repairs
- Backup heater requirements, if any
Though somewhat pricey, it is worth reiterating that a solar water heater will be less expensive to own and operate over a period of many years. The U.S. Department of Energy says that solar water heaters – particularly those that are ENERGY STAR® certified – can lower household water heating expenses by 50 percent or more a year. How much money, specifically, will you be able to save? Factors includes:
- The amount of hot/heated water you use
- The efficiency rating of the solar water heater
- The cost of fuel for, and how frequently you use, a backup heater
- The availability of financial incentives (e.g., tax credits) for investing in environmentally friendly technology

Tony Spinney was an awesome installer! He was on time, very pleasant, and explained everything thoroughly. He was very accommodating. He changed the install layout to fit our system in our tiny 1 car garage. So grateful!
I recently purchased a water conditioning system from Florida Energy and Air, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the entire experience. From the initial consultation to the final installation, the team demonstrated professionalism, knowledge, and a genuine commitment to customer satisfaction.
HIGHLY recommend hiring this staff and company for your home needs.
Tony, the technician/plumber from Florida Energy Water & Air, was most pleasant, knowledgeable, professional. He arrived on completed the replacement of very old water heater including nearly 100% disappeance of the "knocking noise" in less than an hour, and cleaned up the work area very nicely at the end. I highly recommend his and FEWA to anyone needing these kind of services. Thanks Tony !
