Build Solar Hot Water Heater Yourself
Have you ever considered to build solar hot water heater yourself? Having a solar powered water heater will save you thousands of dollars in energy bills each year - and as the electric bill keeps getting bigger, this is something you want to consider. Not to mention you'll be contributing to the future of this planet: Normal water heaters give out a nasty amount of CO2.
Build A Solar Hot Water System
In order to heat water using solar energy, a collector is fastened to the roof of a building, or on a wall facing the sun. In some cases, the collector may be free-standing. The working fluid is either pumped (active system) or driven by natural convection (passive system) through it.A simple water heating system would pump cold water out to a collector to be heated, the heated water flows back to a collection tank. This type of collector can provide enough hot water for an entire family.
Now that sounds awfully complicated to me.. After the video below I'll tell you how I, a verified dummie, got this working for myself!

DIY Home Solar Power
Now, before I built my own solar hot water system, I was all over the net searching for ways to reduce my power bill. Solar power systems was something I considered to begin with - but they were so expensive!
It took some time before I realized I could build them myself, and even then the task seemed impossible.. The guides I found were so damn complicated!
What got me to build my own solar hot water system in the end was the guide over at SolarHotWaterDIY.com
It told me how to build my own solar hot water system for less than $200! And of course, that was saved in after a couple of months anyway.
