• In general, payback times tend to be shorter for propane and electricity-fired hot water systems and longer if you are currently relying on natural gas. Due to the magnitude of factors of influence, it is impossible to offer one precise figure here. However, simulation results suggest that payback times can start as low as 5-8 years. For a more accurate figure of the payback time for your specific home, please contact our technical solar experts, for a customized simulation based on your specific needs.
