The warm summer months never last forever. Soon it’s time to look for a way to bring a little extra warmth into the home and this simple solar heater is a great project to do just that. It’s made of metal cans, steel or aluminum, and can produce a surprisingly strong and consistent airflow upwards of 140F.
Even on a heavy snow day you’re looking at somewhere around 75-85F.
Best of all, this simple project requires just a few common parts and many of them can simply be re-purposed from your regular recycling. Watch the project come together in the fully-detailed video on the NEXT PAGE:
Neat. I’m thinking this could be enlarged with bigger cans
Off gassing aluminum? What? LoL
Finally! Something useful!
I like that
Thea check it out!
Those were some crappy tools.
How can they be crappy when they worked? 🙂

Cool…or warm I mean!
Beer or soda cans not heavy enough metal to hold and spread heat…..only headache I see is when sun goes down
Very creative to be sure, BUT “on a heavy snow day”, WHERE do you get the sun shine to run this?
