About Us

Greg Baer, PE, is a Mechanical engineer with extensive background and experience in the renewable energy and hydronic arenas.  He received his Bachelors of Science ME degree at University of Hartford and Masters of Science degree from Clemson.  Background includes unmanned submarine guidance systems working at Exxon Production Research, coax cable design and manufacturing with Comm/Scope, satellite dish design at Prodelin and solar water heating system development at Exemplar.

Mr. Baer purchased the assets of Exemplar in 1987 and has been developing and manufacturing solar thermal systems ever since.  He has also diversified SunQest into areas that compliment the energy efficient house like:

• Radiant floor heating systems; a natural for solar assistance
• Fiberglass pools; another natural for solar
• Spas and swim-spas; solar assisted as well as conventional
• High velocity, mini-duct  cooling system; ideal cooling system to be used in conjunction with the solar-assisted radiant floor heating.
• GeoXchange heat pumps; save energy compared to the conventional air-source heat pumps

Greg has developed a unique process to manufacture solar panels with exceptional efficiency and moderate costs. Extensive testing of various designs and materials have resulted in two lines of solar collectors; conventional glass-glazed and the new lightweight, super efficient Tefzel^tm-glazed solar panels.

Mary Miller is the Administrative Assistant at SunQest and will also be your primary customer service contact.
