Answer 2

The Solar and Electric Water Heater Systems are of different nature.  You can find out a supplier of Solar Water Heater System and find out the cost based on your hot water requirement pattern.  Find out the present electrical energy consumption and cost born by you for the same.   The difference  will be the savings for changing over to solar water heating system and will be a profit for you.  Normally it is a profitable solution in a long range.  Government will also give some nominal subsidy for solar water heater system.

Answer 3

first you calculate the cost for electrical heaters. but for solar heater except the pump electrical power their is no consumtion cost. if you calculate the cost saving by operation wise, you can see the huge saving. but the problem in Solar heaters are scaling in Mirrors. so replacement cost will go up. so end of fifth year or seventh year you can see no saving. before u calculate the cost saving option you have to consider the Water hardness and TDS, possiblity of scaling, cost of electrical power and replacement cost of solar pannel, frequency of replacment. if you have your water analysis, you can ask the any solar panel supplier about the scaling. do the home work before take a decision
