Fafco Solar Energy 901 SE 13th Place, Cape Coral, Florida, United States

Fafco Solar, a Cape Coral solar energy company, is a family business that has been serving SW Florida since 1974.  Dan Morrissey, the second generation owner started installing solar pool heaters for his father, Ward Morrissey, Jr., in 1975.  That is when pool owners were turning off their gas heaters during the energy crisis of the early 70’s.   "This is an exciting time to be in the renewable energy business. In fact, you’d have to be crazy not to be crazy about solar energy these days,” says Morrissey, laughing at himself.  Now, over 40 years later, we have reached a very special time in our history. The third generation, Ian Morrissey is gearing up to take over the company.
