Philip worked out a nice and simple warm climate thermosyphon solar water heating system. The system is very simple: no pumps, no heat exchangers, no differential controllers, no anti-freeze. Just a PVC storage tank located above the collector, and the thermosyphon effect does all the rest.

The total cost was only $250 US.
Philip provides the details on how he designed and built the thermosyphon system...
