This video shows the "Direct to Air" Solar Heater Installation to capture Free Heat from the Sun. This system is an environmentally
sustainable green heating solution that will lessen our dependence on fossil fuels and significantly
reduce our greenhouse gas emissions. For anyone concerned about the environment
or if you just want to save money on your heating bills. This is the "Free Fuel"
heater - the cost of sunlight never goes up! Once you own the unit, the fuel is
free. The system will last for decades providing free heat and environmental benefits. Regardless
of what you call the system - solar panels, solar collectors, solar heaters or my favorite -
the "Free Heat" Machine, you'll have to agree that the planet needs these systems
if we're ever going to wean ourselves from fuels like natural gas, propane,
heating oil, diesel and other fossil or carbon-based fuels. This system may not
be the total solution, but it's a step in the right direction. It's affordable and
compares to a high efficiency gas furnace in return on investment. That's right
solar heat is now also affordable heats and easily compares to the fossil fuels - even the "cheapest"
fossil fuel right now - natural gas. The only difference is that with this solar
heater, the price of your fuel never goes up. Solar heating has never been more
affordable. Check out the video! Reduce your environmental footprint and go green!

  • It is Hot - in fact the air output can be quite high. But the relative efficiency of the solar heater relates to balancing heat removal with available heat in the collector. Remove too much heat and the collector shuts off, remove too little and efficiency suffers. The system is engineered for optimum heat removal while allowing the collector to maintain continuous operation.

  • The collector is metal coated with a UV absorption material (low emissivity) for higher efficiencies. This means that the light goes in, but it doesn't come out. This is one of the critically important part of any solar heating device.

  • Actually, the intake and return air can be mounted near the floor. Which is a better installation. On the video, there is a fence outside, which means that the solar heater couldn't be mounted lower, it had to be mounted higher so we couldn't put the intake/return near the floor. Each installation is different.

  • The only thing i see wrong is the intake and outlet are too close together and both at the top near the ceiling.

    This may impress the customer with high temp readings not fully aware you are just re-heating hot air taken from the top of the room.

    Shouldn't the intake be near the floor where the cooler air is?

  • Wow! I didn't know that the Men In Black did home renovations.... :) :)

  • That was cool...I mean Hot!

  • What do you guys use as the collector?

  • That is a great looking panel and installation! I notice that the intake and return air are near the ceiling. Wouldn't it work better if you had the intake close to the floor? Looks to me that you are only heating the air at the ceiling. People live closer to the floor than the ceiling. You should have the intake close to the floor.
