Re: Solar panel forum
I am thinking about solar thermal panes on my house. It would heat the water and also the house during the day. They don't work at night or cloudy days (a year is typically 320 sunny days). But the stored heat in the house would keep the house sufficiently warm that it would lessen use at night. It isn't near as expensive as solar photovoltaic cells which would be much nicer but also much $$$$. It's on my list of projects for home improvement.
