Meet the Business Owner

Business Owner

I built my first hot air collector in 1985. I’ve burned wood for 35 years, doing my best to avoid burning oil. I had compact fluorescent lights in the studio before most people had even heard of them. On the studio roof is a hot water batch collector I built 15 years ago that still makes hot water all summer long.

Even with all that passion it seems quiet a leap to open this solar store. However a chance meeting with Dave Bonta of USA Solar Stores made that all possible. His long term industry connections have given us access to people who have been in this business from the start, more then 20 years ago. So doing hot water for a 75 room hotel six months after opening could have been a silly idea but instead with access to the best minds in the business it has been and continues to be a complete success.

Access to great resources like that are important to the ongoing success of our business, but just as important are the local resources we have at our disposal.
