Solar Addict
Along with using solar electricity I designed and built many passive solar projects for off grid living over the years and some of you probably have as well.
So post those and share your ideas or concepts and drawing please.
Pictures of a few of my passive solar projects I have built and still use:
Japanese soaking tub
Heated inside a greenhouse and by a 50 foot roll of black sprinkler pipe. I used a cattle trough for the tub and some pool accessories.
Solar Composting Toilet
Empty the commode bucket in to that once a week and sunshine evaporates off the moisture so no drain field needed.
Solarium porch
I wrap my front porch in plastic every winter to create a solarium. My propane tanks and genny are in there and stay warm and dry. Also used t hang my clothes in winter, work on projects and enjoy sunshine out f the breeze. It gets over 80 in there on a sunny winter day and blocks the cold air from entering the cabin. I can open the front door and let that heat in the cabin to reduce using a heater.
