heat exchanger solar heat solar water heater water heater DIY garage

Hey folks. Sorry I have been away for awhile...won't happen again.
I have decided to add a simple to build solar heat exchanger to my floor heating system. Hopefully this will add some efficiency to the system. I will be making "How to" videos on the building and installing of the entire solar system. Thanks for watching. Please SUBSCRIBE. Thanks.
Here is the parts list I used. Remember you can use different sizes of tubing and fittings to build to your needs. Also check prices at your hardware store (you can get just what you need).

I also added a link to prebuilt heat exchangers if you would like one, and are not willing to build one.
This one is a side arm heat exchanger:
