A conversation this afternoon with a friend has convinced me that I need to look into heating via solar panels. After all the sun is free and isn't going anywhere, right?
His brother works for a local company that installs off the grid power systems. I'm going to do some research and then talk to him about this. I'll post what I find out here. In the meantime, here are some good links to information I've dug up about Solar Thermal Heating.
