DIY Solar Air Heater | Step-by-Step Building Guide [Part 1]
Gravity Filters Gravity / Ceramic cartridge filters are designed to remove certain pathogens from perfectly clear water such a mountain stream. If there is any silt in the water they will plug up and not allow water to flow through. You can scrub the cartridge, but soon you will reduce the thickness of the media and then it will not remove all of the pathogens. YOU ABSOLUTELY MUST PRE-FILTER THE WATER UNTIL IT IS PERFECTLY CLEAR. This can be done by a combination of settling, flocculation, sand filtering, and/or common cartridge type sediment filters that are easily available. If you don't believe this, take out all but one of your ceramic cartridges, plug the other holes, add some dirty water like what you will have to use during a crisis, see how much water you can run through it before it plugs up your ceramic cartridge. You will ruin one cartridge but you will know the truth! Another issue: if there is water in a ceramic cartridge, even a little, and that cartridge is allowed to freeze, a fine crack can occur that will allow pathogens through. You may not know it as you cannot see the crack. NEVER ALLOW YOU CARTRIDGES TO FREEZE!
The link for the materials list does not work. Could you please respond with the list. Thank you.
Fine
I know him❤
OK. If you’re mentioning sediment, then your filtration system is not working that well. It’s just that simple. Pass.
Of all the tutorials for building a solar air heater, this is the most thorough. Thank you.
I'm a woman in my senior. How much would u charge for a pre-made?
they sell those step bits s at harbor freight for 5 bucks
I wouldn't have bothered with the lower lid the pots should stack.
ATTENTION WD-40 WILL REMOVE THAT STICKER WITH NO PROBLEM😮🎉 YOU'RE WELCOME😊 and anything that duct tape was on any kind of sticky residue and it won't scratch the surface you don't have to scrub you might have to wash afterwards😊
Great job!!
I need one or two 😮 😮 thanks 👀
Dude id buy one of these. I dont have the drills and what not. How much would you sell one if so? Ill buy my own filters ofcourse.
DM me at diyprimitive@gmail.com
Does it ever overfill? Thank you
It can if you over fill it. I simply add 3 gallons at a time and I never overfill it. The spigot level indicator lets me know how much is in the bottom reservoir so when it’s all the way down, you can add 4 gallons and never worry about.
Would you consider making them for your followers who are not handy and don’t have any tools
I could. However with shipping and handling, I’m afraid it wouldn’t be cost effective. Consider that this project only requires one to drill holes, so maybe a friend could help you.
Goof Off works on all stickers.. Great vid..
Looks like chemtrail sky,,, nice instructions, i want to do this...
Ha. Highly likely!
Wonderfully explained. Thank you. You do need to prime the filters before first use. I screw them in upside down, and run water through it twice then reverse them back to filter position.
Thanks! I use this thing daily. Drill 21 holes and that’s about all that it takes to put these together.
Did I miss the type of filter used?
Good video with a surprise for me! You took out the original aluminium (ribbits)( my English is not that good) for stainless steel bolts..that is something I never saw before but you are wright about that. So many thanks. Hope more people will realise that with a dumbs up for this video.
Yep, those aluminum rivets eventually corrode. Stainless is the answer. Thanks for your comment and I hope you make one!
That drill screaming for some oil while drilling.
Yeah, but I was going for a minimalist approach and even avoided pilot holes just to show it can be done in a worst case scenario. I also didn't want to have to clean up oil. ha. Thanks a lot for your view and comment! :)
Where to get the spacer washers for lid? And, what size vinyl tubing. Thanks, great video!
Thank you! I have all the parts I used along with Amazon links here. diyprimitive.com/diy-water-filter. EZ-FLO 1/4 Inch ID (3/8 Inch OD) PVC Clear Vinyl Tubing, 10 Foot Length, 98617
@@DIYPrimitiveI cannot get the parts list link to work. It keeps taking me to a landing page only.
I was wondering what type of black carbon filters did you use on this project? I not sure if they would fit because of the height of the filter.
Here's the link. You can use any filter you like, just make sure your holes are drilled to the right diameter. amzn.to/4anHSIe
Looks like I just found a use for my old home brew pots!
Oh yeah!
That's a drill not a hammer if you want to lighting up your bits just grab end of chuck and twist don't squeeze trigger want slip
Everything is a hammer! lol. I almost always do the squeeze too.
How did you check to make sure no water was leaking from the holes you drilled for the filters ? I didn't see a gasket.
These filters come with a gasket.
Where is the electrical part of the installation?
The only electrical part I can think of is the water level indicator that you can buy. Otherwise, it's all just gravity fed. Super simple.
Do you make if I would by one with the ceramic filter? Price?
I don't make them, but all the parts and materials links are listed here... diyprimitive.com/diy-water-filter. All you need to do is drill around 21 holes. You can do it!
Love the video. Are any of the filters interchangeable with the Alexa Pure or Berkey system. The cost of those filters is so out of budget. God bless you.
Any filter can be substituted by drilling the appropriately-sized holes.
To me it looks like the steel profile frame (the interior one) is redundant, and in this particular structure (in this vid) the steel profile will act as a heat bridge and will cool the interior of the panel effectively. #fail This whole panel c(/sh)ould be built from 2" foam insulation sheet instead, with the roof flashing on the outside, and no metal thermal bridges (all of interior enveloped in foam insulation). So, more insulation, eliminate thermal bridging. Also the internal baffles would be best made of this foam insulation. Also the duct work need to be insulated afaics. Also, the front glass should be double or triple layer to improve the efficiency. With glazing that allows most of IR inside. Might be just plain clear glazing, with or without mylar sheet facing inwards. Still even with this optimization of the transmission of thermal radiation into the box, and minimization of the radiative loss, I do wonder if the thermal net gain will overshoot the thermal losses from the total system. But then, I am skeptical if the overall efficiency of air convection solar thermal panel will ever be very good, or nowhere near as good as to warrant punching two 8 inch holes in an outer wall. Here that would only leak heat out during dark of the winter when you need it most. What I think might work best is solar thermal panel behind a window.
Thank you for your comments. The steel stud frame you are referring to is not redundant and is there for strength and rigidity of the unit. The heat-bridging is very minimal in this design. Internal steel baffles are also strengthening and support the frontal metal sheeting and will not fall apart as I could see with using foam in its place. Yes, ductwork should be insulated as in the examples I provide on the website. Frontal "glass" is not glass, rather it is dual-walled polycarbonate. It both provides R-value and is 200 times the strength of glass, and very light weight, and readily-available in 4'x8' sheets. Glass is not and would be high cost for this size. I advise in the book that I recommend a window rather than going through a wall where possible. Also, I'd not use 8" holes, but 6" more likely. Yes, we can go nuts and strive for 100% heat retention, however, cost, size, weight, time, etc. all play a role in any design. This unit is for supplemental heating and expecting more is unrealistic for any solar design. What we know is that this unit performs very well in getting extremely hot at over 240 degrees F with a straightforward easy-to-build method that requires no wood, saws or glass and minimal tools. I hope this helps. Thanks again!
Do you have any idea of the BTUs it produces? Thanks
I do not. What I do know is that it produces heated air at the point of leaving the unit at over 240 degrees F.
I dig the concept. IMHO a few diagrams would make the construction easier to follow than repeatedly using terms like “short side top back” etc. I’m not trying to be overly critical. I appreciate the tips in building the project but sometimes I find too many details can be more confusing than a simple explanation of a concept along with the general construction and materials used. That said, it’s a great idea. Thanks for posting your project.
Hey I appreciate ya! And yes, I thought about the terms I used in my explanations and "short side and top back" etc. were used to not confuse. I also try to teach to my verbal learners as well as my visual learners by providing both. Thanks for you comments. I hope you build yours soon!
@@DIYPrimitive I’m not ready to build one yet…I’m still living in Florida. I’m gathering ideas for when I move to the high desert. Hoping to take advantage of as much passive solar as possible. In addition to other heat sources, I’m thinking a device like this one could be used to move hot air and circulate it through some kind of thermal mass under my bed. Charge the mass in the daytime and let it radiate to keep me toasty at night. So many years of Florida weather has turned me into a hot-house flower. I’m looking forward to getting out of the hot, humid swamp and into the mountains. I just need to mitigate the shock until I can build a tolerance to cold weather. I think my cat would appreciate a nice warm bed every night too.
You didn't have to paint the collector, some studies have shown that dark green is just as efficient absorbing solar energy as black.
Thank you, I actually mention this in the book and that one can also purchase black panels, but one may need to special order. Agreed, green would likely do the job.
Could I use old barn tin that I already have instead of purchasing new metal roofing?
You could I suppose. As long as you can keep it straight and not sag. You may need to add some additional supports inside the plenum (air chamber). I want to see it when it's done!
Get better audio gear.
Noted and already done! Thanks!
excellent instructional/tips/follow!! Thank you ! subed!
Thanks for the complements and for the sub!
Excellently demonstrated 🖒 I thought its rocket science. But it's so simple. Even more simple than making a tree house or a pets house.
Glad you liked it! Yeah, keep it simple!
I really enjoyed your reverse engineering/explanation way of presenting the project. Understanding the whole helps one follow as you cover the details.
Glad it was helpful! Keep me posted on your project!
I have finished building one of these units. I will be pulling air from one room of my house and pushing it into another area of my home. I'm concerned about the couple that goes through the wall on the output side with the extreme heat. What are you using for this?
Thank you, I use the AC INFINITY backdraft Damper. Check out the guide link here and under the table of contents, click on Installation bookmark and it will take you to that spot in the guide. Hope this helps! Keep us posted on your project! docs.google.com/document/d/1HM1Zp-AH4pkc1VaQgawh3E-lYrtIvapRA04eGFzc7RI/edit?usp=sharing
Thank You for taking the time to respond so quickly. I have ordered an app-based fan that will control everything once it is put together. So you are using the backdraft damper through the wall. I guess I was concerned about the 140+ degrees going through the wall in the heat of the day. Also, are you doing anything to release the hot air when the fan is turned off because it has reached the set point in the house? @@DIYPrimitive
Like the materials and build. Would love to build a horizontal unit laying longways. Any one used this to fit a space available to ger perfect south exposure. Ken?
I have a sample layout in the guide for a horizontal layout. Although I haven't yet, I think the build would actually be easier. Third under table of contents is Vertical/Horizontal orientation. Hope this helps! docs.google.com/document/d/1HM1Zp-AH4pkc1VaQgawh3E-lYrtIvapRA04eGFzc7RI/edit?usp=sharing
Congrats! I hope you love sanding Bondo
I LOVE the smell! But I had a vacuum connected MOST of the time. lol
Im confused
I'm more confused.
What is it??
The mold for the front of the cockpit. However, this project has been put on hold due to unforeseen circumstances. :(. ...
Pro tip: use a center punch prior to drilling to properly align your hole and aid drill bit alignment. I use my fancy automatic one every time I drill a hole on metal
Yeah exactly! I think I mumble that I’m proving I don’t need one. Lol.
