Actually you could use one reservoir to do the same (as discussed earlier in this thread) and use a heat xchange pump......You didnt read the whole thread didja?

Your Ricky Martin Brother!!!

Deeeeeewwwd! Im ok (getting much better though) after this property closes I should be back on the rebound. As soon as the propertys close then I can start doing my major upgrades to the greenhouse.....And I wish you and your whole onterage (sp?) family the most joyous, festive holiday.

my "guesthouse" looks like it'll be around 9'X12'
to start, you won't mind the opaque see thru
ceiling & walls will you & like me, i imagine that
the sound of massive water movement just lulls
you to sleep.

Hey Rocky

Happy Thanksgiving to you and Tracey.

Good luck on the closing. I know your frustration as you know mine on real estate dealings.

Tentative dates for FL in December are the 10th thru the 23rd. I'm looking forward to seeing you to Bro.

Talk to you soon.

......You didnt read the whole thread didja?

You mean this year? Well no, but...

I did get the part about the heat exchanger, though I admit I don't really understand how they work. I know the solar heat method works too though. A local greenhouse guy uses one to reduce his gas bill for winter heating considerably. Of course he is keeping orchids and can get away with low 60s at night.

You must really be chomping at the bit to get going on the new greenhouse. Good luck!

LOL....You have no idea how bad I want to get started on this!

I started a new thread for the new greenhouse for those interested

New Greenhouse thread

[smaug]

i am only on page 17 but if i wait till i finish then i will forget my questions. So did you try pushing a temp sensor down the feed and return pipes from you UG loop. This would tell you how much of a change +/- you were getting by circulating the water during the winter. I am sure you guys have hammered the topic to death. Anyway gotta say great work. have you considered writing a paper on this subject based on your experiance. Are there any recources on the web that you recommend for others.

I'm in!!!!! Best to ya, Rocky!

[scubadude]

Thank you Skipp ;-)
How did you fair from Frances? Hope all is good w/you, or actually you still may be going through with it. My prayers to your family bro.

And everyone for their concerns and extending their hearts to those affected by the hurricanes lately. For the past couple of days I wanted to post to this response but didnt know how to word it. How do you post to a comment where ppl are asked to help you.....Its hard! I will say that financial support is NOT the only area I need help in. Here are some areas that I would like some online assistance in if anyone has experience in these fields and would like to offer some assistance I would be greatly appreciative

• Marriage counseling (christian only please)
• Insurance adjuster (Hurricane exper. a +)
• Litigation

[Skipper]

Hey Rocky. We've been completely un-affected here in Mississippi. We're lucky..... this time. It hasn't even as much as rained.

Same here. Sorry to hear of all the trouble you are having,Rocky,reefing aside.

I wish I could help with other issues but I'm not qualified,I'm afraid. Hang in there is all I can say, my friend.

Skip, I hope to see you again at MACNA.
