Solar Energy & Our Philosophy – “Do It Well”

Posted by Dan On September 27th

Fafco Solar Energy Founder Ward Morrissey Jr 466x350 Solar Energy & Our Philosophy   Do It Well

“If something is worth doing, it’s worth doing well.”
My Father – Ward J. Morrissey Jr, Founder of Fafco Solar

These words, which I heard many times as a young child, formed the foundation of our high quality standards at Fafco Solar.

Although, my father and I were 180 degree opposites, and didn’t see eye to eye on many things — I have him to thank for giving me a wonderful career and the opportunity to do something I’m very passionate about.

In 1975, I came to work for him, primarily to get to know him (plus solar energy sounded pretty interesting to me).  I wasn’t planning a long-term career or anything… but here I am, 36 years later, still enjoying solar energy!

Unfortunately, it wasn’t until after my father passed on in 1982 that I learned to appreciate who he was in a deeper way…  I’m grateful we had those few years together so that when I think of him now, I have only good memories and a deep sense of love.

Solar Skylights – How They Brighten Our World

Posted by Dan On September 1st

Thinking of reducing your energy expenses?

Solar Skylights 258x350 Solar Skylights   How They Brighten Our World

Our Showroom with Solar Lighting

The photo above shows the power of Solar Skylights redirecting sunlight directly into our showroom!

Did you know we have 21 tubular solar skylights that light up our entire office area?

The best part?  We hardly ever use the florescent lights.

Some of the benefits of tubular Solar Skylights are:

  • Energy savings – there’s no cost for directing natural light into your room!
  • Far less expensive than conventional skylights.
  • Emit more light per given area.

Be sure to learn more about Solar Skylights, or give us a call at (239) 574-1500!

Enjoy!

PS – Also, feel free to stop by our office sometime and see our solar skylights in action!
