    Solar Heating and Car Radiator Cooling

    Lookout everybody. I found the "new post" button. I use solar evacuated tubes to provide hot water for heating my house so on my recent upgrade (to 2 140 gallon 1/2 pipe tanks) I decided to use my hot water reservoir to heat my salt water system and save on heater electricity.
