So in a previous post, I mentioned that there has was some ridiculousness involved with registering for water and sewer service. Well, I registered two months ago, and never got a bill. Yesterday, however, i got a letter from the DEP saying that I haven’t paid my september water bill, and that late charges will be assessed. What’s worse, the letter has no invoice associated with it, so I still don’t know what the bill is. When I got around to calling them today, they were closed.
Now I have two upcoming projects with water. I have two 50 gallon water heaters in the basement area. I think I can fit heaters up to 75 gallons in there, and would like to, so the tenants will have more hot water available. The question is how to do this to interrupt service as little as possible. The other one is how to find a natural way to heat this water. I am open to suggestions.
oh yeah, and I should probably pay that bill too, as soon as I know how much it is.

You will likely want to look into a solar thermal heating system. In short a series of panels that have glycol or a similar substance run through them to collect heat. This heat can then be used to “preheat” your incoming municipal water (which is 4 or 5 degrees C probably) thus reducing your heating costs.
Here is an article about a local business using such a system

and a link to a cool video about the same project

What is the physical layout of your building like? What about exposure to the sun? or any other site specific features?
