I am having a hard time figuring out where to start with solar and if there is any tax credits etc...
What I want to do is use solar to heat my dog kennel. I have in-floor heat but the wood boiler eats too much wood to use it so I was thinking a simple solar plan to use the floor as a heat sink while the sun is shining would help a lot. It is all plumbed with pumps for the floor, I am thinking just running the solar into the floor to gain heat would hold it all night and cut down on my wood use. Maybe I am dreaming, anyway let me know what your thoughts are. I am very new to this idea and if it will be too much money with little gain in the Green Bay WI area then I will keep moving on with other ideas. I am looking for solar gain in the late fall and this time of the year when the sun is shining and a little more direct.
thanks,
Tom
