A solar water heating Bee

It's open house at Meenal and Afshin's as they take another step forward as eco-techno-pioneers. They are truly early adopters - the rest of us watch and once they figure out the bugs, then we start thinking of following suit.
Today the piping for their solar water heater is going in place. The holy grail - water heated at no cost (once the payback of 8 years or so passes) with no CO2 emissions from the electrical generation or gas fuel to heat the water - will be achieved.

Bee - yes, it was like a quilting bee or a barn-raising. Even my parents, who aren't able to climb ladders or interested in cutting copper pipes, arrived with a 3-course meal, packed up in a
tiffin
