What Is Active Solar Heating?
There are two basic types of active solar energy systems that contribute to heating liquid or air within the energy collectors. Collectors are devices that hold fluids heated by the sun. There are two types of systems, liquid based systems which use antifreeze solution to retain the heat and is called “hydronic” collector, whereas air based systems use the air heating method is an “air collector”.
The main operation of these systems is to collect and absorb the solar radiation and transfer it to storage systems Continue reading →

Air to water pumps is intended for being the only one source of heating and producing hot water for home. Air to water- heat -pumps use a constant energy that allows getting and supporting a suitable temperature at the useful level for heating and hot water in home. Air to heat pumps takes the warmth from the outside air.
This warmth can be used with hot water for radiators, floor heating systems, warm converters of air and hot water in your house. They can easily take the warmth from air, even when temperature is very low, Continue reading →

It seems like about three million of you have asked me to explain how a geothermal system works. Well, maybe not three million, but it’s a bunch of you and I’m honored that I have the opportunity to do it. Now you’ve probably already figured out that I’m not smart enough to be real technical, but I do have some common sense. So I will use a common-sense approach to explain how the most efficient heating and cooling system available today can help you.
Actually you could get the Oct. 25, 1948, issue of Life magazine Continue reading →

In the 1700′s there were two theories on the nature of light. One theory, proposed by Sir Isaac Newton, suggested that light consisted of a stream of tiny particles called corpuscles. The other theory, proposed by Christiaan Huygens, explained that light consisted of waves. Who was right? Well most of the evidence pointed to waves, but there was more to the story.
By the 1800′s most scientists accepted the wave theory of light because of the work done by Thomas Young and James Clerk Maxwell. Both men were able to show that light diffracts, and Maxwell Continue reading →

Water heater maintenance is one of the most significant yet ignored things in your home. The life span of the average gas hot water tank is approximately 8 to 12 years, with electric it is approximately 10-15 years. It can be functioning at a much decreased level before it stops working. Keeping that in mind, there are a few things to consider to increase its life span. You can increase the efficiency of gas hot water heaters by using an insulation jacket. These can be purchased at any of the larger hardware stores. Proper maintenance is one and another Continue reading →

Solar power is immense and also nonpolluting, yet transforming solar radiation to electrical power isn’t yet commercially competitive, for the reason that of the high charge of creating large-scale PV cell arrays and also the inherent inadequacy in transforming light to electrical energy. Solar power systems are normally grouped into two classes, active and passive. A passive solar method makes use of the light as well as heat from the sun straight for cooling, lighting and heating. Solar power will be the technologies utilized to harness the sun’s power making it usable. Right now, the technologies creates much less Continue reading →

This is an old family recipe my grandmother used to make during winter months. She made a large pot of jambalaya in the middle of winter and the smell and aroma filled throughout the house. This was also a popular dish she often served when she entertained her friends during club meetings. She served this dish with her favorite hot water corn bread. Mmmmm Good!

1 pound smoked sausage
3 large chopped onions
2 bell Continue reading →

A solar hot water panel or referred to as a solar hot water heater, uses the energy from the sun to heat a fluid, which is in turn used to move heat generated in the array to a heat storage vessel. This is free energy from the sun providing energy you are currently paying for. Why would you not get on board with solar and supplement your income with the sun.
There are two types of solar systems: active, which have circulating pumps and controls, and passive, which don’t. The output from the solar storage tank Continue reading →
