It's that time of year. Anyone go? Score any good stuff?
Best scores so far this year.....
A propane wall mount ventless infra red heater with a thermostat (old one we were using did not have one) - new in box - for $35. New ones in store are over $300. Already mounted. Works great.
A 8 foot square (two 4x8 panels) solar hot water heater. Commercial construction. Aluminum case and copper tubing on copper manifold. (Over 400 feet of tubing)
$20.
A project for sure. I plan on using it with antifreeze - then running that through a heat exchanger to pre-heat the cold water going into my water heater.
I had a similar system I knocked together and during the summer it lowered by electric bill substantially. This one should do even better.
