Solar Homes & Solar Collector
Solar
energy is our birthright like the air we breathe or the water we drink. Solar
Home Plans
and cost effective
Solar Hot Water Projects are the gateway into
a "Solar Age" of energy independence. Whether you have a
home in Madagascar or real
estate in Missouri. Fossil fuels are no longer
necessary to keep the wheels of civilization turning. Build your own solar
heating system with an MTD Solar Collector Kit.
Explore the Strawberry Fields Book Store
for more information. Alternative energies like
solar energy will increase in value as fossil fuel prices
escalate making energy efficient, solar houses
more valuable. Solar
collectors, solar hot water systems, heat storage vaults, photovoltaic
electricity, solar panels, solar
greenhouses and solar house plans will soon become
the standard rather than the exception to the standard in the near future According to Buckminster
Fuller "We have wondered too far from the roots." An energy crisis can
only be avoided only if we learn to rely on a diffuse, sustainable resource like the sun. .A
home
equity line of credit may be just what
you're looking for to become part of this "green economy".

Solar Home Basics
Do-it-yourself solar thermal projects can make us more energy independent. The greenhouse effect is a miracle of nature that makes trapping heat possible. Without this method of trapping heat our tiny planet would be a frozen waste land like the Moon. A conscious effort to make better use of this miracle of nature can free us from dependence on non renewable resources and allow us to at last live in a sustainable economy unfettered by the restraints of big business and big government. The greenhouse effect is something that all domestic solar thermal systems have in common....
Solar collectors
also use the greenhouse effect
to capture
the sun's energy. Both solar collectors and solar greenhouses are able to harvest
the suns energy in the form of heat. Greenhouses and Trombe Walls use air to
transfer heat and Collectors use water or a combination of water and antifreeze.
Two of these serpentine collectors cover a surface area 60 square feet.
The glazing is more durable than glass and much lighter.

System" and this do-it-yourself collector design on my Testimonial

Solar Panels are very much different than solar collectors. They use selective wavelengths of light to produce electricity and they work best in direct sunlight at a low temperature. Large PV systems are still quite costly. They use inverters to convert DC panel power to compatible AC power. This AC power is often interfaced with the grid so that solar energy may be shared with others.
Solar Charge
Controllers are used maintain
an adequate charge on batteries.
Solar
Heat Controllers are used to
collect, store and distribute solar heat.
The AC/DC Differential
Controller responds to the difference in temperature between collector
and storage and turns an AC or DC pump on and off to maximize the heat harvest
from a solar hot water or solar heating system. Temperature monitors are
used to display the actual temperatures inside the collector and inside the heat
storage tank, but the controller will function without them.
This AC/DC controller consumes less than 1 watt of power per hour yet it is capable of regulating 300 Watt pumps. It's a rugged, dependable, analog controller that may be mounted on a wall. The temperature probes and power connections are attached to the terminals on the bottom of the controller to facilitate wiring.
The
PV Controller has been designed to work in
harmony with a photovoltaic power supply and a closed loop solar hot water
system without the need of a battery back up. The differential on adjustment has
been integrated with the differential off adjustment to simplify the optimum
setting between heat gain and energy conservation.
A counterclockwise adjustment maximizes heat gain and a counterclockwise adjustment maximizes power conservation.
The green LED comes on when the pump is activated and the red LED brightness is directly proportional to the amount of heat available.

against global warming and big business.
This house is based on a Harry E Thompson's Trickle Down solar thermal roof system but
it's been modified to for easy installation on top of an existing roof.
