  • With your storage tank above the heating panel, the water would circulate by convection in a closed loop back to the top of the barrel.

  • Pretty sweet man! All you need now is a flock of chickens there! haha!

  • A simpler solution would be get or make a thick black plastic bag that holds maybe 20 gallons and hang it in the sun about 10ft above the ground. Gravity would feed it and be simple. All you would have to do is fill it maybe in the morning. Could make it a little fancier by adding a thermostatic valve thing to mix in cold water as needed to keep the temp right.
