ClubRust builds several low cost homes for families in northern Mexico each year. They would like to work out a way to insulate and solar heat these homes. The very small budget for these homes makes this a difficult design challenge.
So, here is your chance to help out with some ideas for solar heating and insulating these homes on a tight budget.

What's Needed:
Most cost effective means to insulate and heat small houses in mild winter climate with little or no electricity.
Ideally the solution would provide heat thru a few cloudy days and cost less than $700.
Typical house is 320sf wood-frame construction on concrete slab -- see the link below for full details.
