Florida solar energy equipment and services
This document is intended to serve as a source of basic information on solar energy equipment available from manufacturers, distributors and retailers in Florida and on solar energy-related engineering and design services offered in the state. The directory is designed for use by architects, engineers and others seeking information on available solar energy equipment. The product descriptions provide key information about solar energy products, with the recognition that additional, detailed product specifications can be obtained from the individual companies. The information provided is sufficient, however, to allow those selecting solar energy equipment to identify products which may meet their requirements. The solar energy equipment listed is limited to that in production and commercially available or in advanced development and near the production stage. It includes equipment specifically designed to use solar radiation for application in domestic water heating, pool heating, and heating and cooling of buildings. Details are not given for those components of solar energy systems which are not unique to solar energy utilization. For example, descriptions of circulating pumps are not included. Such products normally are listed in other, more extensive product catalogs, but names of conventional products are given when available. Exceptions to this rule have been made for storage tanks because they represent a major subsystem of the solar energy system. The directory also lists companies with experience in design of solar energy systems or which offer services specific to solar energy utilization. Included are companies with experience in engineering design of systems and testing of solar energy equipment. While efforts were made to avoid omitting firms providing legitimate solar energy design and test services, the listing does not represent as thorough an effort as was made for the manufacturers and distributors of equipment.
