Below is my video about the solar air collectors I am starting to build. As stated in the video, I will be making other videos about the assembly process of these collectors as well as the analytical statistics of each as they develop. So please stay tuned to solars2c.com and this blog.

 

Can you imagine the south side of a house with solar collectors matching the siding and blending in with the structure? Future posts will detail the construction aspect of blending the collectors into the south wall and yet allow for windows and doors and even low landscape vegetation. There can even be some taller vegetation as with those that you cut down each winter and yet grow tall as pictured below in a planter that my wife maintained in the front yard of our house.

These Flowers and grasses were perennials that grew all summer long and then in Fall were cut down. Same way with the hops on the trellis in the background. During the winter the trellis was clear of any growth. 

Social media and Solar Companies.

The need for Solar Companies to use social media in their business plans is highlighted in an article by "SolarFred", Tor Valenza on his blog post on the unthanksolar.com site Here is a link to see the 12 areas he sees as a part of a media marketing plan for solar (and I see this as fitting ALL marketing plans): www.untinksolar.com/2015/02/25/every-solar-company-is-a-empire-but-few-use-it/ .
He seems to run a weekly blog that addresses various solar and marketing topics. He is more for marketing than development as I have seen so far. I hope to use some of his ideas in my marketing plan and think they may be useful for everyone.
Let me know in your comments if you agree or disagree with his strategies or even with how useful his blog posts are to other businesses.
