90% of all cycling newsgroups posters are liberal. We conservatives are few
and far between.

It's way better than solar power.

I like the simple stuff. My old house in Chicago had a what you could
call a "leveling" or "moderating" or "economizer" tank.
Pick your term. Basically an uninsulated tank that accepted the city
water before it was pushed into the water heater.
Chicago water is very cold, even in the summer, and this tank served
to warm it up a bit before heating. Not effective in the winter
though.
When you think about the length of sunshine in northern climes, solar
makes sense only if you can store the heated water, and that takes
some doing.
With the cold water we get up here, it can probably save some money
if the system is simple.
I got to thinking about it while gardening and seeing how the garden
hose held quite a bit of hot water after some time in the sun.
My feed from the ground puts really cold water to the hot water
heater. Only a short run of 3/4" from the ground to the tank.
An insulated "economizer" tank would make a difference.
If I did the solar here, I'd put an insulated holding tank in the
basement to prefeed the water heater. Run the cold water to the yard
to flow though some kind of ray absorbing piping laid out in the sun,
then back to the holding tank.
Piping could be some sort of black PVC, or copper loops painted black.
Don't think I'd put anything on the roof, or even use a glass
enclosure.
Up here for about 5 months of the year I'd restore the normal feed to
avoid freezing.
It would pay off, but not much. And it'd be a hassle and an eyesore
with that collection method. But it's a cheap way to go.
Have to time your heaviest hot water use to make the best of it.

That would be "uninsulated."
