HOW I MADE A SOLAR POP CAN FURNACE / HEATER

THIS IS A 64 CAN , MY FIRST TRY AT MAKING ONE SO I MADE A VIDEO OF IT

Uses step bit to cut 3 holes, high heat mortar or aluminum gutter glue, set in a piece of gutter with styroform to keep cans straight, high heat paint

made one similar to this but larger so I could space the can rows apart about two inches and installed a mirror under them. The cans I painted flat black all around and used the foam insulation on the bottom and sides of the box. I used 10 stacked cans by 10 rows and this set up produced enough heat that it made my small home shop 95 degrees by noon. I live in an open area with no trees and it was a full sunny day with outside temp @ 35 the mirror helps to reflect heat to the back of cans

Sorry, I dont understand why you would want this? If the sun was out and it's warm out, I dont get why you would need hot air indoors?

Easier way.. get a sheet of Insulfoam from Home Depot. Measure you window and make a box out of the foam ONLY. Paint the inside black and cans. Put a ledge across the bottom. Make hole along top and bottom. Insert a small computer fan run by solar charger. Then place this unit into the windows from the INSIDE of the house. It is very lightweight and can be taken down when summer returns. Produces 120-150F heat.

A small company, Cansolair has produced and sold only 100 solar heating panels in the past four years. Now the company is getting more aggressive and pushing into the New Brunswick market with a new distributor in Saint John and a demonstration unit of the RA 240 Solar Max mounted on the outside wall of the farmers market in Bathurst. Dan Cybulski, whose Saint John-based Dacon Energy Systems will now sell the RA 240 Solar Max throughout New Brunswick, said he expects to sell as many as 100 of the solar panels in 2005 alone. Mr. Meaney began installing a RA 240 Solar Max system on the farmers market in the downtown core Wednesday. The inventor of this particular solar heating panel was also expected to give a presentation on it Thursday at the Le Chateau hotel in downtown ( www.cansolair.com )
