was talking to a man that has 60 + commercial solar water heating panels that he wants to sell. he got them from a national park that was using them to make steam to power a steam generator that supplied power to the park. he wants to sell them for only 125.00 each.
they are 3x6 panels with copper collector under a double pane glass cover with 4 inches of insulation under all in a gavanized casement with mounting tabs. these things weight almost 125 lbs each. I got 5 to use on my pool and maybe another project.
If anyone is interested in some of these please e-mail me and I will contact the man to see if he has any left. include your contact info.

these panels are located in Macon Ga. and will need to be pickup. He does not want to deal with freight costs.

here are a few pictures. the Temp readings are At 6pm Eastern, Prtly cloudy and The glas case is covered in dirt.

If anyone else wants to contact the owner

His Name is Rusty Jacobs and his office no. is : (478)744-0025. 9am-5pm M-F eastern

Please remember He does not want to ship these panels.

It is only local pickup

For 125.00 and Gov. spec. Heavy Heavy duty made. Can't be beat for the price.
