Renewable Sales, the East Coast’s premier distributor of Solar PV and Solar Thermal products is proud to announce their American Choice Solar Panels will be featured in upcoming episodes of the popular PBS Series This Old House. The project Renewable Sales is involved with is located in Barrington, Rhode Island and it incorporates both Solar Potovoltaics (PV) and Solar Thermal products.

Sitting on the beautiful Narragansett Bay, the 1925 seaside cottage featured on the show has experienced a mish-mash of additions over the years and it was more than ready for a retrofit. Because this house is in a “Zone II” wind zone, it means that it faces particular hazards associated with strong winds of up to 110 miles per hour. This provided some interesting dilemmas for the installation of Solar PV and Solar Thermal.

Going through the process of filming and setting up the house with the proper hardware made for some long days, but it was well worth it for the Renewable team. Two arrays featuring 10 of Renewable Sales’ American Choice 250 watt (ACS 250) Monocrystalline PV panels were installed by Mass Renewables of Bellingham, MA. In addition to the panels, the Thermal System installed featured a 2 Collector Heliodyne Hot Water System. The installation of this system was done by Shift Energy of Biddeford, ME.
