FIGHT HIGH HEATING OIL prices and allow to save money for other things like paying your mortgage or refinancing your home. Hope this helps:-) Note: Look T THE VIDEO RESPONSES THEY ARE VERY GOOD! This is a prototype easy to build rooftop forced air heater that produces 45 degree increases at a high CFM CFPM rate. This one is made out of cardboard. A real one can be made out of weather proof material COROPLAST.

The name Coroplast applies to a wide range of extruded corrugated plastic sheet products based on polypropylene copolymers. The natural polymer is chemically inert and is generally considered non-toxic and safe for use in contact with food. The base resin meets FDA requirements as listed in Food Additive Regulation Title 21, Section 177.1520(c), Item 1.1, covering food contact uses.

  • have you tried it in winter. you tested your device in warm and sunny conditions. i really can't see this working when its cold and/or just a little bit cloudy. then you're gonna have yourself a nice air cooler, which i suppose is not a great thing in the middle of winter.

  • @etlamphil Forced air heaters need 50% sunlight or greater. You do not run the fan at night or when it is cloudy. Just clear sky cold days. They work well.

  • how do you know it's not the vacuum motor that's raising up the temperature...

  • Because a vacuum only adds 1-3 f at most. Place your hand next to a shop vac exhaust.

  • your testing the heat out in the heat

    that thin piece of cardboard would NOT work out on a cold wintry day and you have no insulation and the air flow threw it would freeze up, and there is no air volume this means the air goes in one end and out the other end and has no real time to let the heat build up. with thin plastic you said at the end of your video and cardboard theses are 2 items that can't handle heat and would not last

  • @TheEZhexagon coroplst lasts 5-8 years for a $17 sheet. Also has 3 x the volume of 200c cardboard. Coroplast reaches 137 F in direct sunlight 25 F outside temp, on glass insulation, with glass it goes up to 167 F. The small channels transfer 80% of the heat at 30 Cubic Feet Per Minute. Coroplast is rated at 250 F. Also additional black spray paint extends UV to 7+ years.

  • LOL, are you saying that politicians and election campaigns are nothing but hot air anyways? :))

    This is awesome, Dan and Denise, I like your ideas! :))

  • You do know that its only number 2 heating old that most home's use and its a lot but for buildings I know that number 4 and number 6 are up to 80 cent a gallon number 6 a year back was only 63 cent but number 4 and 6 burn dirty so you will see black smoke when you first start you're boiler up. NO HOME SHOULD USE NUMBER 4 OR 6. Its not for you or your units

  • Chk the solarventi allredy uses ure ides , and its behind a glas board and uses a solar driwe fan at back side is used hole and filtration than one hole in wall too press in hot air....

  • hahahaha one great miss the vacuum cleaner adds heat iff im not wrong,,, engine cool off?

  • Corrugated plastic is available in several thicknesses. It looks like you are using the cheapest stuff. There also is a product that is approx. 1/2" thick corrugated plastic with an aluminum facing. The corrugated plastic has larger channels. This product is also available in 10' sheets. It's called alumacorr. Quite rigid. It is mostly a sign product.  Your project is very interesting.

  • Vote for DAN!!!

  • Does anyone knows of any safe chemicals that heat up to 175+ degrees when motion is applied. If ammonia, sulfur dioxide, and non-halogenated hydrocarbons such as methane can be used as refrigerants when motion is applied, what chemicals can be used for heat when motion is applied? Contact RF at rf_countrychristian@yahoo.com

  • If you took a sheet of corrugated steel and then laid a flat sheet of steel on it a "spot weld roller" could be fashioned. A wheel rolling in the trough of the corrugation and a second wheel on the back of the flat sheet would press the sheets together. With a ground applied to the sheets and a welding voltage passed thru the wheels a welded seam would be made. The assembled panel would gather more heat especially if painted flat black and would be VERY durable.

  • looks like you have a lot of fun dan,at least it gets people thinking green and you get to impress your good looking woman, good stuff !!!

  • Why not use black pvc piping cut down a scribed line mount the board

    pvc cement an intake manifold tube on the bottom a hot air exhaust tube out the top and silicon glue glass panes to the front and back.

    Seems faster, easier to construct, and uses the power of greenhouse collection to capture more heat.

    Love your videos. Keep up the great work.
