CAPITAL SUN GROUP LTD

Our founders incorporated Capital Sun Group in 1997. Because they have worked in the solar and energy efficiency field since the 1970s, we have an unusually broad range of experience. It includes the full range of residential and commercial solar energy technologies, including building design. We design, install and maintain solar thermal and solar electric systems, both commercial and residential, as well as geothermal heat pump systems. We have worked on a few small wind turbine projects. Most people who contact us now are interested in solar electric systems, termed "photovoltaic" or "PV." Our installation experience ranges from 20 Watt stand alone lighting systems with batteries and LEDs to an 84 kilowatt utility interactive system for the U.S. Postal Service. We have a long history with solar water heaters, which are especially competitive if homeowners have electric hot water tanks. We also sell solar home and commercial space heating systems. In the energy efficiency area, we have what we call anti-solar products that block the sun when not needed and let it in when desired. To cut your air conditioning costs and hold in heat in the winter, radiant barriers reflect solar generated infrared (heat) radiation. One type of radiant barrier is Lo-Mit, a reflective paint sprayed on the inside of roof sheathing and rafters. It will cut AC costs by 10% to 15%. We also offer reflectors (Inflector) for windows that cut heat gain by 70%, protect furnishings from sun induced fading, and also reduce heat losses through windows in the winter. You can see through them and they let light in. In a related category, we offer Window Quilt thermal shades for windows and sliding doors.. They install indoors and are made of fabric with an integrated radiant film. They roll up and down in tracks to seal windows from letting cold air inside. They can also block the hot sun in the summer. Window Quilts, unlike the transparent Inflector technology mentioned above, cannot be seen through. Capital Sun often consults to home owners and architects on solar design for new homes or additions. These are called passive solar homes. When we are done with a building addition, it will help heat a house and keep it cooler in summer. The overall energy consumption can be less than before the addition was made.
