Nah, just cause you assholes always fuck it up for the rest of us.

You became mutts 2000 years before Americans
What's with the seething leafcucks? Can't even go after Murica without you maple syrup naggers getting all defensive now?
You keep mentioning the square feet, as if that makes a difference. Maybe you can't grasp the fact that there are different size tanks, or can install multiple if needed.
If it comes down to an aesthetic question, yes they aren't very pretty. But the size of the house plays a role only in your mind.
>What's with the seething leafcucks? Can't even go after Murica without you maple syrup naggers getting all defensive now?
I'm giving you tough love fren. Without petroleum distillates (kerosine, diesel, jet fuel) you've got no shipping, no trucking, no farm equipment, no air travel. Are you telling me Greeks aren't smart enough to build even one fucking nuclear power plant? One would be enough to not only make cheap energy for your whole country, but you could make good money exporting to mentally ill green party in Germany.
Your tiny little rooftop solar water heater (that only works on clear days) isn't even a fucking rounding error in the GDP of Greece.
Unfuck yourself, son of Athens. Build a nuclear powerplant and start looking into domestic oil and gas production. Stop sucking German cock for pity pennies.
kek, based. Anyhow, we do have all of that. Just Erdogan keeps fucking with OUR oil and gas.
What has America ever fucked up for you? Or you just can't admit you are a loser and blame all your problems on everyone else?
Brooo.. how much time you have? that's for an entirely different thread.
But, really, would that thing in your OP pic be capable of running your house?
I'll have you know that I live alone with my cat, and neither of us takes baths.
Yes absolutely, even in the winter I rarely have to use my electric heater. Only when it's literally snowing outside.
Would it be enough for a family/entire household? No probably not, maybe in the summer.
Nothing wrong with that, best of luck, I mean it. But, trying to laugh at Americans over this is retarded. That thing doesn't fit most Americans lifestyle needs, or climate needs.
There are lots of retarded American things we do that you could legitimately criticize is for, but that tiny roof water heater isn't one of them.
>shitposting le bad
wanted to have a laugh at your expense.
I appreciate that, thank you. You too fren.
>wanted to have a laugh at your expense.
Enjoy, your (You)s.
>But, really, would that thing in your OP pic be capable of running your house?
No. It makes a tank of hot water thats enough for a quick shower OR doing dishes OR a load of laundry. All of those countries use expensive electricity to heat their water, so for a young couple without kids, it saves them a few bucks a month and will actually pay for itself. Dont try it anywhere in the USA outside of the sunbelt unless it's just for virtue signalling points.
Did people in Greece have all their bank accounts skimmed off to pay your countries debt to the EU a while ago? You aren't even a sovereign country. Shut-up and know your place.
How? You still get to be lazy nagger communists just like you've always wanted to despite our existence. Now you just don't suffer the merited consequences of your evil nagger bullshit as quickly thanks to us constantly bailing you out.
Shut the fuck up and deal with your problems on your own next time.
You could've said
>WTF is this I'm so fkn angry
But you blew it
you don't deserve fun things, homosexual
Just imagine waking up, enjoying those first few blissfully unaware moments before reality creeps in... and then imagine that moment ending and remembering
>Oh fuck, that's right... I'm Greek.
>petrol
lmao
Yes, we here in America *love* heating our water with gasoline! Why, I just filled up a can at the gas station earlier and now I'm burning it right here to heat my coffee water.
I just put 2 scoops of Folgers crystals into my mug of petrol, it's the best part of waking up.
Hi I'm an american and honestly WTF is this thing
Two Chinese-made solar panels and an ATM that dispenses Euros from Germany every time Greece goes into default.
It’s just a solar water heater with the tank being roof mounted like a dumb cunt.
That's clearly not enough water. It's not even 1 bath.
They only use it for their morning cuppa. Greeks don’t bathe. They still cover themselves in olive oil and scrape it off with a stick.
That's fuckin redpilled.
Where else can they put it when they are living with 8 square yards per person? Lol.
It's the future. And the sheer fact that it isn't widespread in your country, is concerning. Big Gas don't want you to know. You have plenty of sun especially in the south.
https://eviathboilers.com/en/how-does-a-solar-water-heater-work/
>saving money on my electricity and gas bill is third world
Having a water heater tank is third world.
T. Never ending hot showers with my tankless water heater.
Endless bills you mean. Since I've installed my solar water heater I've been saving about 50$ on my electricity bill monthly. That sums up quickly.
Bro my whole 1300 sqft house only uses 60$ a month
Lol, I don't mind, I can afford it. You have fun hurrying through your shower before that 30 gallons are gone. I'm gonna cut mine on steaming hot, and sit in there for an hour.
??? I pay $25 USD for electricity a month for my apartment. And I live in a major city.
Damn... Fuck Europe...
That is what I spend on internet..
Keep telling yourself that Nigel, you've got ripped off and prolly paid twice what that hud is worth. Cretans have israelite blood.
That looks like enough for a 5 minute shower while turning the water off in between. It doesn't look very good on your roof either.
Save $50 dollars?
I heat mine with wood residually as I heat my house.
Lowest electric bill, $20. This included $15 for a transmission fee and taxes.
If you only knew, how efficent things could really be.
I use electric heat. Eat my asshole malaka
If it's the future then why are new-builds in Greece not using them? I just bought a holiday home in Crete and it has a fucking heat pump. Only poorfags use roof heated water.
It gets cold where I am.
Which is why I use gas for heat.
And because I use gas, I have a gas hookup.
And because I have a gas hookup, I have a gas hot water heater.
Why not take a hot water arm off the boiler?
>It's the future. And the sheer fact that it isn't widespread in your country, is concerning. Big Gas don't want you to know.
You assholes might want to look into drilling for your own oil/gas because you're not gonna grow enough olives to trade for modern civilizational, lifeblood: kerosine, diesel, jetfuel.
look dork, heating water is the least of our bills over here. i live in the most energy inefficient possible colorado style a-frame house, 3300 square feet with a literal 40 foot ceiling in the living room. we've got bigger fish to fry. that little tiny bit of water ain't shit for a family of 5. I have TWO 60 gallon water heaters. 4 bedrooms, each with their own full bath. I'm not bragging, it's excessive and I know it... but you have to understand that would be absolutely retarded for most people here, especially considering our energy is like .095 USD per kwh (north tx). shit, my attic is probably hot enough to heat water most months of the year. lots of houses have solar, but it's better spent running our air conditioners because it gets hot as fucking balls. your little water thermos is neat and all, but here in america we take 40 minute showers and keep cranking the heat until the tank is empty. someone tell him about hot carl's, he'll flip his shit.
Solar even works pretty well up where I live, about an hour's drive away from the polar circle. They have no excuses.
>Hi I'm an american and honestly WTF is this thing
It's a solar water heater. They work very well in places with mild climate and clear sky sunny days.
>don't bother trying this in Ireland or Scotland where they get 14 days of clear sky per year.
Shortly after this photo she got preggo and stopped modeling.
It some ugly gadget used when your electricy is $0.25 per kwh due to corruption and laziness. Suficient for a one a week shower.
solar water heater system
I've seen those all my life. What is the point of the tiny tank though? I thought the Yuros don't take showers thing wasn't true? I guess when you're a tiny skeleton person you only need 1 gallon to shower?
That tank should be about 300 litres if its a similar to the ones we have here, it is more than enough for a standard family to have a 10 minute shower in the morning each.
Pretty nice idea if you want to go off the grid and avoid electric companies
I use my work's showers any time I want to have a long one. Sometimes when I'm stressed I'll even just go down to the change rooms in the middle of the day and have a 30 min shower. It's okay, the company pays for it kek
What in the ever living fuck?
Here’s a retrofit kit. https://www.solartubs.com/solar-hot-water-retrofit-kit-1-collector-p-245.html
When you upgrade your tank install one of these in the old tank and put it inline with the new one as a preheater.
>bonus you now have 100 gallons of emergency water
>water heater tank
This is third world shit.
There is nothing wrong with those. There is everything wrong with the Greek shit bag not understanding half of America fucking freezes in the winter and can't really utilize them. By all means set them up in say, Las Vegas.
>the Greek shit bag
kek, thank you for noticing.
They fucking suck. I have a wife and three sons. We live at the beach, the kids play football, surf, ride dirt bikes, we take ten showers a day sometimes. My wife does multiple loads of laundry a day. The dishwasher is always running. We have five showers, including the outside one, and three tubs. Like ten sinks. My house would suck that thing dry every morning at 6:00. No, tankless is the way to go.
It's just funny that OP
thinks his antiquated system is a point of pride.
I'm sorry, but that's nothing. My family comes from a long line of sewage treatment entrepreneurs and we take as many as 20 showers a day, and are washing our hands at least 30 times an hour. It takes at least 10 gallons of water just to clean the tea cups we use for brunch. The dog needs washing every day so we take a shower before, sometimes during, and after we wash the dog. That little tub of water you go through might last an hour, would be gone in 5 seconds in our household.
>Europors don't even decontaminate before going inside
Your mother is an aquifer.
Chinese sand panels are not going to save anything, Jevon's paradox. World is going down a shithole faster than you can say cloudy days.
Looks gimmicky as fuck, if I could slap that together for 1k and throw it on some stinky boomers roof for 2k I might jump on board with your bullshit here.

https://www.tesla.com/solarpanels
Ah yes, the environment.
That will be a beautiful oasis one day
I’ve seen solar panels on roofs in my podunk town since the early 90’s. You aren’t special
Lots of Americans have solar panels
Some power companies will install them for free and you get a credit on your bill
Otherwise do it yourself
If you can plug in a VCR, you can figure out solar panels
Just be sure to check what the bus on your panel is rated for, which will inform you as to how much power you’re allowed to backfeed
Those panels don't seem to be very efficient and there are other options which capture more heat and some even work under the snow.
*blocks your path*
The sun is literally shining senpai...
Won't be steaming hot, but will it heat up a bit.
Even when it's cloudy here, I still get warm water from it. Very efficient.
You got ripped off homosexual. All Tourist buying here do.
60$ a month for electricity? No way.. don't you have an AC?
>only poor people save on expenses
>>only poor people save on expenses
No, only poor people buy and use inferior shit just to save money, and only retarded poor people brag about it.
kek, having half the expenses you moron have, while making double the money Is stupid?
Truly a plebeian way of looking at it Tyrone.
Let me ask you something. How many bathrooms does your house have? How many tubs and showers? How many sinks? Do you have a washing machine and a dishwasher? That little thing you posted does scare and confuse me. It would be scary to only have that amount of hot water at one time in my 3,000sqft house, and it confuses me as to why someone would.
That setup only makes sense if you're a third worlder washing dishes and clothes in a river, with a single shower and sink at your home.
Lol, this nagger has a tank on his fucking roof and he's trying to talk down to Americans. Hey dip shit, I also have solar panels, but no cuck tiny roof tank.
AC, a pool and a hot tub
Not when it's frozen outside and snow covered up my panels.
It gets bad enough we sometimes get frozen in.
>Boiler
What do I look like, a peasant? Only forced air here.
Again. You're a poorfag. My heat pump lets me run the hot water as long as I like. Plus I don't have to advertise to everyone what a poorfag I am by having a cope tank stuck to my roof.
Electricty and gas are literally 10 times cheaper here. A 15000 squarefoot house in oklahoma with 5 hvac units is only 300 a month
>Handles on the side of panels
Fucking genius
OK give it to me straight. Do these work?
>Luke-warm water for 6 months of the year
>Scalding hot for the other 6 months
>Runs cold in less than 10 minutes
Kinda
If you want to take a hot shower only during daylight hours. Do you have those?
We have condensing boilers in the UK which is arguably worse because they are expensive to run, expensive to maintain, and if they go wrong they'll kill you by either giving you carbon monoxide poisoning or blowing up your house.
Sounds right. Is that why the big push for geothermal?
Everyone would like a heat pump, but the government is absolutely cucked to the gas industry so they are an astronomically expensive outlay which you'd have to wait 10+ years for before seeing any return. Not to mention the fact that Vaillant, Worcester-Bosch and hundreds of thousands of plumbers would go bankrupt if we were to actually modernise in this country.
>Everyone would like a heat pump, but the government is absolutely cucked to the gas industry so they are an astronomically expensive outlay which you'd have to wait 10+ years for before seeing any return.
Heat pumps aren't very efficient in northern Alberta.
they are fine no matter how cold but you have to bury them deep
>they are fine no matter how cold but you have to bury them deep
That works thermodynamically but the cost is prohibitive.
bro.. nobody is wise to the in ground geothermal heat pumps.
when we're talking about the government rebated ones, we're talking about the little ductless ones, that have a fan/radiator thats what most people install. and once it goes below zero, they're as energy effecient as baseboard electric heaters.
t. laughs in Southern Californian. no need for cooling in the summer or heat in the winter. 20-22C year round. could be February, could be August. not sure what "weather" even means. we sort of have rain sometimes for 3-4 months out of the year, but that's about it.
Be honest, is it
>a) crowded?
>b) overrun with homeless/immigrants?
a. not really, central coast and we always used water meter restrictions to discourage new development. don't want to turn into LA.
b. tons of homeless, but easily ignored. also probably 1 in 10 people in my county are illegals. they pick the crops, cook on the line in nice restaurants, clean the hotel rooms, and keep our beautiful gardens immaculate. not a great deal, but the best deal we're gonna get. if we deported them all, the local economy would totally collapse. your average mexican illegal has a great work ethic and are super polite and let you cut in line at the mini-mart. i would take mexicans over blacks any day of the week.
>we always used water meter restrictions to discourage new development
>also probably 1 in 10 people in my county are illegals
>they pick the crops(that use most the water)
Yeah, this nonsense is working out REAL great for the non-elite farm corporations. Fucking braindead Caliwali homosexuals.
t. Caliwali born retard that hasn't left.
the carrot farmers abusing the Cuyama Valley aquifer should be taken out behind the barn and dealt with as menaces to society.
Checked and whisky is for drinking, water is for fighting. It's damn near 90% of the water is used for agri out here. Home water use is a non-issue.
same thing in Central Valley. is there a reason this can't be fixed? seems like a Prop vote could overturn the water rights issue, but some kike judge would just kill it over "climate change". or is it a Fed thing?
Checked, and we can't do a damn thing. Just fuck of to work in the morning and pay your 60%+ in taxes and if it's yellow, let it mellow.
if it's brown, flush it down. if you are paying 60+ in tax, you are doing your taxes wrong. i make $125k gross + $30k+ in pre-tax benefits and my net is like $84k but i got that cushion with health benefits and retirement matching. could be worse.
like seriously i am paying 25-30% or so on a super good income with lots of bennies. Corporate America is not a horrible deal.
>OK give it to me straight. Do these work?
That's a yes with a but.
Yes they heat water and can even heat water to near boiling. But they are highly dependent on direct sunlight, and once the sun is down you are not getting more hot water till noon if you don't have a backup system.
For places that have lots of sun (doesn't strictly speaking need to be hot, I've had snow melt off my black BBQ when the air temperature was -30C.) This can save some energy.
OHHHHNONONONONOOOOO!!!
Op eternally and forever BTFO back to muh dick posting.
Imagine being so poor you have to put your water heater outside and use the sun to heat your water.
nagger you're stupid
Why the fuck would I need hot water when it's hot out? And either of those will work in Winter. Great plan, retards.
I see those on off-gridder houses.
They work in the winter, as long as it's sunny out. They might not always work but that's the sacrifice you make for having your own hot water rather than relying on the grid.
If it's Winter I'm heating my home with a fire. It's easy to have unlimited hot water, and just because it's sunny, doesn't mean it's above freezing or there is no cold wind. The panels could have snow covering them.
>They work in the winter, as long as it's sunny out. They might not always work but that's the sacrifice you make for having your own hot water rather than relying on the grid.
Off grid is the only use case I can justify here in Alberta. They have some technology called "vacuum tube" solar water heaters that can get up to 563°F and even have good efficiency in overcast days. If I lived in New Mexico I would go for the flat panel solar water heater.
Those things are great if you want warm water in the summer and frozen pipes in the winter.
>need
>need
>deserve
I can smell the weakness through my screen from you. Its disgusting.
I'm fascinated by the stereotypes people come up with for Americans. Solar is a multi billion dollar industry in the US. We're one of the top producers of solar panels globally.
>You Vitamin D deficient mongrels don't need to heat your water with petrol.
Not everyone lives in Athens or Rome. Any idea how long it takes for a vacuum solar tube solar water heater takes to pay for itself?

Good point, they don't have too much hail in Athens.
I do not understand what this is and I am slightly pissed off. what are you getting at here?
What year is it for you? Have you been under a rock? Solar is a big fucking deal for homeowners. Dependency on electric only in general is a big fucking deal here. Catch up.
I see these everywhere in Florida.
I have never fucking seen one of these here in Florida.
You inbred retard.
Solar panels emit radiation as they decrepitate.
Puting one in your roof let alone on your property is naggerbrain ignorance.
>He said, typing away on his wireless device connected to a 5G dead tower, that he keeps next to his balls even when he sleeps
Right.. yes the radiation
That kind of thing would be nice here if it didn't get down to -50C (not including windchill)
>That kind of thing would be nice here if it didn't get down to -50C (not including windchill)
Vacuum solar tube water heaters will work in -50C. The downside is they are so efficient that they don't generate a lot of waste heat to melt any snow that accumulates.

Only a brown peasant isn't able to bypass his electric water heater to a single copper pipe along his roofline. Can't afford the copper?
Good luck heating water when it hits -30°C in February
I see those all over the place here, you ignorant SGC homosexual.
You can have solar and keep your water heater in the house you dumb nagger.
i have like 30 of those anon
How do I heat up the water when the solar panels are buried under snow or when I only get a few hours of sunlight per day?
Well get the snow of the panels. A few hours are enough, but whether freezing and unfreezing will damage the pipes is a different question.
If it doesn't work in -30C weather and low amount of sunlight it's not going to work in Finland
Pour petrol on it.
I cook my single serving cans of cinnamon rolls in the oven like a normal person, not on the roof like a fucking animal.

This is small potatoes bro.
I have solar panels across two sides of my roof that provides all my electricity and heats my empty-less water heater and my pool’s cleaning system and my AC. The surplus every month turns into a check to me from the electric company.
I’m glad you can have a lukewarm shower in your cuckshed though.
Pay debnts
Great idea, I like only taking lukewarm 5 minute showers from the hours of 10am to 5pm. Do you even run a household? I bet your landlord put it on your roof after the neighborhood hot water heater was wrecked by romanians(or greeks you all smell like shit) looking for scrap.
I think Euros only shower at night. They enjoy stinking and having fucked up hair all day, or something.
americans inventid solar
net energy negative
We literally invented the first viable solar panel, brown person.
> Russell Shoemaker Ohl (January 30, 1898 – March 20, 1987) was an American scientist who is generally recognized for patenting the modern solar cell (U.S. Patent 2,402,662, "Light sensitive device").[1] Ohl was a notable semiconductor researcher prior to the invention of the transistor.[1] He was also known as R.S.

I quite like it. Why are you seething so much?
I’m a big fan of using nuclear power to my water, but burning petroleum products is just fine too.
Currently sitting in the cozy passive solar heated house I built by myself. Those roof mounted solar water heaters are not going to work up here. It hit -7°f in late October... that is -21°c to you monkeys. Most power here is priced just below what it would cost for alternative systems. I just replaced an on demand water heater with an inefficient tank heater. Why? The technology is constantly changing and the kike manufacturers make sure you can't fix shit yourself by discontinuing parts or other ways. For example I had a thermister go out. Normally, it would cost you 69¢ plus shipping. But because they make sure you can't read the values on it or get the part number they charge $69 plus shipping. Easily fixable things are inefficient. Efficient things are made unfixable. They fuck you or they fuck you. Most people take the easy route.
I live in Portland. I heat my water with hydroelectricity from the Columbia River. Fuck off.
Guys like you are the reason why we act like we own the world, because you're fucking obsessed with us.
You see us around, with our big American cowboy boots and hats, kickin' shit down the road, handing everyone a tip, and you're just there seething as you type your post out.
Take it easy, pardner.
My pool has a solar heater, and possums poked a shitload of holes in it. I was quoted $3k to replace it like-for-like, or $6k for a vermin-resistant option.
Solar heating is a fucking scam.
literally every house in my neighborhood has those shits on the roof. you are one stupid and pointless buttfuck of a poster
That would freeze stiffer than a wedding cock in the winter time. Where white people live, at least.
Lol every ten years the world is going to be destroyed in 10 years
How many decades have to pass before you realize its bullshit
