Customer Letters
Florida - December 2005
Dear Mr. Gulden, I would like to take a moment of your time to tell you how pleased I am with the first phase of the installation of the hot water system. Your installers, Frank and his partner (please forgive me I don't recall his name) were very polite, courteous and above all professional. It was apparent that they possessed the skills, knowledge and abilities necessary to completion of the job. They represented your company with a sense of pride and should be commended. I will be looking forward to the completion of the system as soon as I can get my roof repaired.
Thank You - Frank F. Imparato

Mexico - December 2001
A group of 16 adults from Brownsburg Christian Church in Indiana went on a mission trip to an orphanage in San Luis Potosi, Mexico in September 2001.
We did several general maintenance projects plus also installed (3) ProgressivTube solar water panels. This was done to reduce cost of propane gas used to heat hot water. Also hot water was provided to areas of the orphanage that did not have hot water. Previous to the installation of the solar pamels, the propane tank had to be refilled every 3 weeks. The orpahange now reports going 3 months and still has gas in the tank. In addition, hot water has been expanded to the kitchen, clothes washing area and two bathrooms.
We want to thank Solar Direct and Watkins Trucking for providing and shipping these (3) panels to Mexico.
It was a very rewarding trip to first improve the physical needs of the orphanage and second to have a great spiritual experience with these wonderful people.
