Endless hot water without electricity!

   Imagine if we all had our own land and we could just build what we want without needing to show engineer papers! It would be like a giant amusement park. You could easily pressurize your own water without power as well.

   And here I am building a nuclear reactor ?
   Lol ?

   MOONSHINE BABY!

   Wow. That hassle just solved itself. Thanks a lot. God bless you and your family and keep you safe.

   Didn't show it working plus heat source too small. be putting in wood every 1/2 hour.

6. 

   Wheres the cool water coming from?

7. 

   Need a cold water reservoir to draw from. A steam/pressure relief on your hot water tank. Strip the tank housing and replace it with a really good insulator to minimize heat loss and maximize efficiency. And install a way to check the temp of water in the tank. Replacing the lower heating element with a thermometer or thermocouple would work well.

   Thanks man?

   Нихуя не понятно, но очень интересно

    Is this faster than just putting a pot of water over a fire? I don't think it is.

11. 

    Okay… silly question!? You have to fill the water tank with the cold water first…correct?

12. 

    I've watched your video of bending the pipe without crimping it… very clever ways of doing it. Do you have a video of making the stove?

    You could pump water use a Stirling engine, use some of that heat off the wood burner to drive the motor

14. 

    I already get endless hot water with no electricity. I have a gas water heater, but you could just as easily put the wood fire under the water tank where the gas fire is. This might be useful to provide heat to some type of in floor heater coil or something

    Excellent information
    ????

    Where would you plum in to hook it up to your house

    Insulating the hot lines & top of the tank with glass fiber can reduce radiative losses of energy for prolonged storage of hot water for later use // an additional adaptation to this system could be an additional heat exchanger to take advantage of free solar thermal energy on days when the sun shinning // adapting concepts from air source mini-split heat pumps & heat pump water heaters can also improve the EERE energy return on investment // love the simple design without electricity or pumps utilizing thermo syphon effect to pump the water with thermal expansion & check valves etc // good jobs with the DIY build! Thanks you for making the video & sharing it

    Waste / biomass / wood scraps to water heating energy // really cool if you can get clean combustion going by partial gasification of the fuel // see Windhanger biomass units video or renewed interest in trash to energy gasification syngas production technology as a renewable form of energy since it can make use of agricultural waste or forest debris removed to reduce forest fire hazards or construction scraps or anything natural thats dry & flammable // a simplified gas cooling & particle dust bagging system can be adapted to cool exhaust gas from the stack to clean up emissions further // Swedish engineers developed dust collection systems for coal power plants many decades ago. Cool video & thanks for sharing!

    This is how my dad made hot water for us when we were camping, fishing, hunting even in the winter. Just made a 2 or 3 rap coil of 1/2 inch copper tube attached to a couple of lengths steam gun hose to a 20 GB metal barrel with 2 through hull fittings one high one close to the bottom. Just put the copper coils in the bottom of where your camp fire will be fill the drum up with cold water from the lake or stream keep it topped up from time to time. Just take the lid off. Dip a pot or ladle in remove some hot water replace the lid to keep falling objects out. This system can boil water quite quickly. So don't let the water drop below the lower or outflow from your water drum. Before that happens remove your copper coils from the fire or top up the water. If your lines to the fire go dry you have a very good chance of damaging your copper coils and your steam gun flex lines. Possibly even melting your copper coils.

    This is how my grand parents hated there water in there home for their family. Usually through the kitchen stove that heated a large part of their home

21. 

    When I was a kid everything was cooked on the slow combustion wood stove, Dad had setup exactly this, the hot water system was heated by the stove. we always had steaming hot water for washing dishes and baths.

22. 

    Thank you algorithm

23. 

    What about the pressure buildup from overheating?

24. 

    Looks like the ol algorithm decided to recommend this today, and I wasn't disappointed. Great work!

    global warming is winning and this is just the beginning

    Act now think globally act locally ,and vote responsibly before its to late for us all

26. 

    Thanks a lot. Much support from ZAR – KwaMashu. Rich Future by DSK

    I made a similar on demand water heater when I lived off-grid for a decade. I build a stove using construction cinder blocks, and put a copper coil in the flue. I could cook dinner and make hot water with it at the same time :>

28. 

    Nice

    That setup is not a thermosyphon because the hotwater return is above the surface of the water in the tank. Water sits in the coil until it boils, then the steam pressure spurts it out as you can see
    It will work much better if the hotwater returns in the side of the tank, below the surface of the water. There will then be a smooth continuous circulation and the water won't need to boil in the coil to spurt the water through, as there will be no head pressure to overcome.
    This is NOT a thermosyphon as he has it currently arranged.

    Dude this is amazing

31. 

    At first I was like what a hassle to take a warm shower. But it ? electricity⚡️ free. Best part is that the water gets pumped!

32. 

    I know a way also. It's called natural gas.

33. 

    Good on ya mate !! Much Love ! One Love !!

34. 

    I like that, good video show how you don't have to rely on electric.

35. 

    Saved video….fast forward to the apocalypse and my phone is dead.

    Ive seen in many parts in Mexico, people have a water tank on their roofs for water conservation by their municipalities. The water main will continue to supply water to their water tanks till about noon than the water main will be shutoff by the municipality . You will only be able to use the remaining water in your tank until 600am the following morning when the water main is turned on again. The Water tank which is then controlled by a similar balloon like ballast which is located in your toilet water holding tank. Some people dont have water heaters in their homes but just the wood fire stove to heat the water pipe and a separate cold water pipe by than adusting the water valves carefully so not to get scalded by the hot water when taking a shower or washing dishes.

    The greys from roane co. Tn i no this is a little late but ..

38. 

    I did this for a hot tub 6 years ago. ?
    It didn't work as good as I hoped. But it works.

39. 

    Nice camera shake!! Any way. Good video.

40. 

    Great video, plumber by trade here. It's good to see someone using the ole noggin to make it easy to understand for folks. Keep it simple, is what it is all about! God Bless

41. 

    hey engineer can you make a pool heater please

42. 

    What is the use of that coil?. Not explained well enough, obvious not made by you!

43. 

    This is cool. How does the tank keep its heat??

44. 

    Incredible
