Instructor Name: Chris Magwood
Workshop Description
There is nothing better than taking an outdoor shower in your own backyard with free hot water from the sun!
In this workshop, you will learn how to build your own solar collector and install your collector in a thermosyphoning system that will generate copious amounts of free hot water for your shower without the use of pumps or electricity.
During the workshop, we will construct and install a complete outdoor solar shower from commonly available materials and parts.
Find out about solar collector systems connected to any outdoor hose and those hooked up to rainwater collection systems, as well as portable systems. Maintenance, winter-proofing and drainage issues will also be addressed.
Building your own solar hot water shower is one of the fastest, most immediate and empowering ways to learn about solar hot water and low-impact systems.
