What would your recommend for heating radiant rather than solar hot water? Your choice of energy efficient heating of hot water? Anna Martin, I really enjoyed your article.

Interesting point though. Do you know anyone who installed flat panels for this reason or any information or reports about snow with either flat vs tubes? Anna Chris, just repeating what Frank said.

While a couple of inches of snow will block tubes, several inches will quickly slide off a flat plate collector.

I never looked at the difference between flat panel and tubes from that angle. Indeed, it makes little sense to double the output when there's little output anyhow. And pay more for the system, even. You made the point that everyone should make a decision based on specific data for the specific situation. .-= Luc J´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.cleverandeasy.com/Multimedia/solar-charger-for-all-your-gear-freeloader-pro.html">Solar Charger For All Your Gear: Freeloader Pro</a> =-.
