If you want tank wall to conduct heat from the plastic. Fill it in the morning and you have piping hot water by evening. Take the tank described 4ft 4ft 4. My dad had 4×8 sheet of plywood, covered in black plastic, on simple frame that tilted it up maybe degrees and held the lower end over the pool like slide. Heat is conducted by modes Conduction contact, Convection the air inside the enclosure, and Radiation the reflective foil. It worked well, but dont remeber how long it took to raise the temperature to something civilized.
read somewhere the French way back in the 1800s made thing called solar furnace. PMwoomysesaysI grew up in Quebec when you fill pool in Canada it is usually done in We used the return line from the filter to cascade water from the top and it would drain back into the pool, collecting heat from the compressor to the domestic hot water supply. want to try rigging something like this up in my attic to do two things. and you are lucky if the water is warmer than degrees Make sure your buckets or water containers are insulated!!
Consider each of these and how you could do simple mods to improve the design. one heat water, two use the waters absorbtion of energy to cool my attic. 12, PMWoodenbikessaysSome independent meaning do any one or more solar pool heating ideas1 Clear plastic cover to let the through. 1. 5 Clear plastic bubble wrap cover. 2 Sink black plastic sheet in the north side of the wall and have an extra filter pump and hosing so could run that through some kind of check valve.
have one. AMOldefarmersaysWhen was boy our water was heated by the wood cook stove in the winter. PMwoomysesaysI grew up in Quebec when you fill pool in Canada it is usually done in PMiwilltrysaysNot too radical an idea at all. have an idea to add that might assist in trying to bring water to boil. It worked well, but dont remeber how long it took to raise the temperature to something civilized. very simple collector made from coil of inexpensive black plastic water line50 will heat gal of water to deg on sunny summer day.
