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:
Marsha Carpenter we need to do one of these for under your house!
Yes we do!!!
Why not just open ur curtains & let the sun shine thru ur windows to heat ur house?
Finally, someone stating the obvious. This waste of time can’t gather any more heat than would shine in though window of the same size.
made one of these a few years back to heat my chicken coop worked great
James are you making these?

Interesting.
Bigger cans in a bigger box and more heat!
