you are better off using coils of black tubing or a larger black vessel
when i was in the dominican they used big black plastic tanks that were put on the tops of their homes

PIPE as...pipe

I love your commentary almost as much as the project ideas themselves. Thank you and keep making awesome vids.

just thread used clear soda/coke 2L bottles over the pipe its easier and costs nothing and stops the land fill.

Hey, could you show us if the thingy heats water? thanks. I wana make one if it works..

Jamie!!!! You only have about 3 feet of heating! That's not enough. You will run out of hot water in about 3 seconds. You should have the pipe exposed to the sun for a much longer period of time. A coiled section of black pvc, around 100 feet will provide a decent amount of hot water.
God bless, and congrats on the new baby.

I made a parabolic solar cooker one time that utilizes the same concept. I ran a removable skewer through the focus to keep whatever you're cooking suspended. I bent one end of the skewer into a handle so I could rotate the food. If you adhere Mylar to the reflective surface might get your water a little steamier.
