FYI. We will not be taking tank orders for the foreseeable future. Due to supply chain issues, we had been in the process of reassessing our product line, but this complicates matters. We will post an update when we are able to take orders again.

Just a few things of note on this sunny, spring day.

We've moved! Just a quarter mile down the street from our former location, but now in Stockton Springs.

With our move, the old, 207 number is no longer in service. Our only phone number is currently 888-866-8970. We are always reachable by email.

If you're curious as to where the Priuses are, they can be found on our other page, American Solartechnics ASTcars.

Have a warm and happy holiday!

Another pellet boiler tease:
Combustion testing is coming in at 85+% efficiency.
We are not done yet, but it is getting close to being done.
Photos as soon as we are ready.
For now, we still are playing with fire!

We've been working on a new kind of Pellet Boiler. We hope to offer it within six months. It will cost less than $2000 and is specific to our tanks and heat exchangers. This will be a perfect back up for those solar heating systems and smaller houses that have modest heat loads!

Heat and DHW in a DIY package! Only at AST!

Tom shows us how quick and easy it is to install liners in an American Solartechnics Heat Bank.
