George Löf, director of the Solar Energy Applications Laboratory at Colorado State University, uses an original installation in his home in Denver. Löf's house is fitted with plate-type solar collectors, sandwiches of glass and black-painted, heat-absorbing metal that warm trapped air like a series of shallow greenhouses. Fans then force the heated air through ducts to cylinders filled with rocks that hold the heat. When warmth is needed, air from the rooms is circulated through...
