A video describing a batch solar hot water heater I built. The water heater is currently supplying the house as a preheater to the domestic hot water heater. Max water temp observed: 165F.

I live in Florida, and if there’s one thing we have plenty of, it’s sunshine. This unit was fun and inexpensive to build, it will run for years maintenance free and provide my hot water heater with pre-heated water, so that it will not have to work very hard (maybe not even at all) to get the water up to desired temperature. I used Google sketchup as a CAD program to design the frame and I’m willing to share with anyone that is interested.
