Turn Sunlit Windows Into Wall-Size Radiators with
ClearDome Solar 6' X 9' Interior Window Solar Heating Drapes
Here's the most inexpensive and efficient way to transform sunlit windows into
giant solar radiators in your home, RV, boat, camper or office. This passive
solar thermal heating fabric works inside your home or office and hangs on clear
sunlit widows. It's UV resistant, safe, doesn't small, and very easy to use. The
specially designed heat tolerant, untearable black high density plastic material
absorbs and traps solar energy against clear glass windows, much like the
dashboard does under your car windshield—even on a cloudy day. Radiated
temperatures are much hotter than can be acheived from any other solar heated
objects in the room. Some sunlight is passed through the cloth so you can still
see outdoors.
Once the sun's intense energy passes through window glass and touches the deep
black surface of this fabric it's instantly converted into heat energy, then
radiated into the room at temperatures slightly less than the average
conventional baseboard radiator. The heat is non-toxic and will always be free.
Radiant solar room heating is slightly slower but much quieter than forced air
heating, and at ¼ the price as our interior forced air heaters, the ease of
installation and use, it's quite a bargain for about 225 BTU of free heat per
square foot.
A large covered sunlit window such as a glass patio door will produce much more
heat than a large conventional baseboard heater, at over 13,000 BTU, o r about
3,100 watts of energy with midday heating. This 6' x 9' standard size of heating
fabric will fit an average size sliding glass patio door. It can be easily cut
to fit smaller windows with scissors.
The clean heat generated by this fabric is quietly radiated into the room at
least twice as hot as the room air temperature at temperatures above 130 degrees
F. You can feel the pleasing warmth radiating from the back side of the fabric.
Lower levels of heat can be generated on light overcast and partly cloudy days.
South facing sunlit windows provide maximum heating.
As the square footage of heat absorption increases, so does the amount of
radiant heat for your home. You can order larger solar heating drapes for more
window heating on our Amazon order page. The more sunlit windows you can cover,
the warmer your home will get. Comes with instructions and attached suction cups
for easy installation and removal. It also makes a backup daytime heat source
when your conventional power fails. For more details and photos about this and

Remember, any free solar heat in your home will reduce the cost of expensive
conventional heating. The photo below shows in on a patio door, and how
transparent it is with sunlight shining through. The dark areas are shadows.
