just found a good way to heat a small building using the sun and anitfreeze. first you run a bunch of pipe up and down the roof of a building, preferably pex as it can withstand the cold and hot better, painted black to capture more heat. then you run the pipe to a small coil, such as one from a furnace or small air conditioner. you can put a small fan on the coil for more even heat distribution but from what i read they do a good job without a fan. then you find a small, about 1 gpm 12 volt pump hooked or hardwired to a battery that is recharged via a solar powered battery trickle charger and from there on you make heat. the magazine said on a cold but sunny day you can get water temperatures of 200 degrees which is roughly about 120 by the time it reaches the coil. but is still enough to heat a smaller building to 90ish degrees. i was thinking of putting a system like this in a small cattle shed. what do you guys think?
