I designed and built an active collector that was part of the roof of the house that I added onto in 1978. It worked great! Especially in late Jan through March when the sun got higher, it might be 15 degrees out and the hot air would blast out of the duct. We had a manually operated diverter to the basement so that the excess would go down there and help us to stay warmer at night. I have seen vertical thermo-siphon collectors on south exterior walls where air is drawn in at the bottom and rises between what had been the outside surface and the back of the black painted absorber plate. I used corrugated aluminum roofing for the absorber, which was covered with Kallite fiberglass for the glazing. There are lots of plans available for low tech low cost but high performing solar collectors.
