Taking my notebook (paper kind) plan on stopping there to get you some information, This place was about 200 - 300 tw in area and packed with mostly the hot water heaters, Perhaps they make or distribute them, maybe it's some kind of research facility. Either way, they should have some info on local availability. Will post what I find out this evening.
No soap. The place looked empty. it is certainly active and the equipmetn shed and shop appears to ahve had recent activity. There was no one to answer me yelling "HALLO." It is a solar energy station. You would think that there would be someone on hand at all times but I guess not. They have mostly photovoltaic panels thee and a few solar water heaters. On closer examination it appears they have dismantled more than half of their original units.

Hmmm, one might wonder if they are concentrating on electricity and looking to dump the rest of the water heaters? Might be worth a trip out there to talk with them, closer than the nearest Global anyway. They could probably help with sourcing, or maybe load one of their units into your truck even.
