Solar water heater for my home?


Question by Conservative Country Boy: Solar water heater for my home?
We’ve been considering purchasing a solar water heater to save on ridiculous oil costs (we already use a pellet stove to heat our house but need oil for our hot water). We live in New England and have roughly a 1500 sq ft home. Does anyone have informnation we can use to buy the right solar water heater, such as types, pirces, backup systems, etc.

i use solar convection for 100% of my homes heating/cooling. basically think of a big green house on the south side of your home with black walls and black floor. there are vents on the top and bottum of the inside wall going into my house. when the air in the room heats up the hot air rises up threw the vents in the house, pullling in cooler air from my house. then at night i simply close the vents.

i also use solar aic conditioning in the house. i have a big black metal box on the top of my home that heats up supper hot in the summer time. as hot air rises it sucks the warm air that’s collecting in my cieling, which creates a suction inside the house. i have vents on the floor that are pipes threw the dirt in the front yard which draw in the cool thermal air into the house.

    for a more realistic approach, get rid of the oil boiler that heats your hot water. if it only heats domestic, you can install a 3 panel 80 gallon thermal system that will take care of your hot water, you need to face south with good exposure. if you can fit more storage, do so (100 gallon +) google solar thermal installers for your area (stiebel eltron).
