What do you think about the new WikiEnergy layout? Court and I have been working on it for the past few days. There are still a few bugs to work out (for example, the links under ‘Topics’ aren’t working yet), but I think it should work well. You can explore the theme more at http://wpwikitheme.com/

Say “hi” to the family for me, and I hope you enjoy yourself today. I wish I could be there.

This technology is used most commonly to warm swimming pools. As the suns rays shine down towards onto dark colored water filled materials, heat is obsorbed and transfered to water where it is stored. A motor is required to circulate the water supply, a closed loop is created in the case of a swimming pool where cold water is taken from the pool, passed through the solar heaters (often mounted on a roof or other unobstructed location) and then returned to the pool.
