This video details how to make a super-efficient water heater thermo siphoning process. Not only are all the parts he uses cheap or free discards, the project does not need electricity or solar power.
To match this video you will need:
Copper Tubing
Stove Pipe
Water heater
Valves
And of course, water and something to burn.
See the process video after the break and then get started on your own source of endless hot water:
What he meant to do was take a metal trash can and a copper coil and let it sit in the sun all day. No fires needed.
Sweet
folks google Rocket Stove. it can be configured to heat many things. uses small pieces of wood. inventer uses 3/4 cord of wood a winter and neighbors use 6-7 cords a winter. lives in Oregon mounting. here in Colorado plains uses 4 cords for wood stove last winter. it gets dilivered and stacked $140. cheaper than LPG, and warms a 1300 ft HOME. But checkout rocket stove.
Had a friend who did this. Works great, but it is a little more complicated in practice than it appears.
Very cool, or should I say hot.
This is the same principle as Thermal Mosquito Fogger. Only instead of Hot water, Steam insecticide fog is the end product.
The comments i like are the ones complaining about having to start a fire whenever they want water ,in the event of an emergency you can still have hot water, that is a huge difference in the morning when you bathe or wash your dishes.
If you have ever been without hot water even temporarily you will realize how important this is.
If you own your own land you can put coils underground to store the heat for use when it’s cloudy, put 36 inches down with 12 inches of Styrofoam insulation and heat up to 500 degrees it will hold the heat+or- 5degrees for one year.
Mr. Farvret that is a very real problem that can be overcome by the use of pressure release valves that can redirect to an alternative heat storage battery like the thermal battery i described in an earlier post.
There are endless possibilities limited only by your imagination.
You can also use a solar panel
