New Green Way To Heat Your Home

cansolair heating panel New Green Way To Heat Your HomeAn inventor in Newfoundland has invented a new green way to heat your home called the Cansolair Heating Panel.  Basically what he does first is drill the bottom and top out of soda cans.  He then sticks them all together and installs them in rows in a solar box.  This channels the heat into the home drastically reducing your heating bill and saving a bunch of cans from hitting the dump.  Let’s hear it for a great idea on recycling cans into another green project.

Jim, the owner of the Newfoundland company, says that the cans have an excellent heat transfer capability and are a very sustainable material.  The system supplies about 2Kw of heat circulating through your home which will feel warmer than a 2Kw electric heater because the electric heater does not blow air.  The only problem with this heater is that it only works when the sun is out, however when installed during the day it will prevent your conventional heater from running all the time, saving you money and making your wallet happy and green.  Watch the video below to see it in action.
