I don't know, that sounds a bit too good to be true to me. If it were that easy & cheap, wouldn't everyone be doing this? 45 outside and 60 inside? Call me skeptical...

This guy is in Bozeman, Mont. and the system works well for him. I have about 50 feet of south facing wall that will be set up like this. i have to take advantage of the free heat before paying the monthly fee for it. Check out the article.

Hello Skeptical.

Sorry I had too.

I have seen some solar systems in the past and they are pretty amazing. I can't vouch for this one but I plan to make one someday. You know, like after I build the shop.
