Solar Quiz Time!
On our Facebook Page we asked: How much hot water do hospitals use?
With many hospitals across the country at an average of a +60% occupancy rate the number of people calling a hospital home, at least for a short period, can be a staggering number. Figure in all of the hot water used by those individuals as well as the volume of water for cleaning and laundry purposes and it’s not hard to see that hot water figures in as a large cost of a hospitals overhead.
The average cost per inpatient day is $2,025 for nonprofit hospitals and $1,629 for for-profit hospitals.
With hospitals using an average of 35 gallons per day per patient and considering that solar hot water can provide as much as 50% savings on energy costs, the benefits to these institutions to make the switch to a sustainable solution could be immense!
We’ve worked with a variety of residential installs, as well as large commercial projects for car washes, universities and dairies throughout Idaho; we would love the opportunity to discuss how our solar HVAC solutions could be used in the health care industry as well.
