the coldest tend to be also
the clearest. This week's
weather is a good example.
The solar rays are strong
when they are needed.
Marzolf has worked on a
number of solar energy
projects with CAP over the
last five months: a green-
house, a solar air panel,
and a ‘‘bread box’ solar
water heater. He and
Shearer rebuilt the roof
over the porch and insulat-
ed it, build side walls,
caulked, painted, and plan-
ned. Marzolf believes in his
work. He told us that solar
heat can not only save

resources and money, but
will also have ‘‘a positive
impact on your lifestyle,”
allowing you to garden in
the winter, among other
things. (A solar heater
not only uses the green-
house principal—it is a
greenhouse).
‘““It’s hard to put a
monetary value on that,”
he says.
As though to back up his
words, the Rileys, who up
till now have been avid
summertime gardeners
(readers may recall the
article in the Times about
their three-foot stringbeans
of last summer), have
already bought tomato and
cucumber seeds to start in
the heater.
Last Saturday about 25
visitors from the Mid
Atlantic Solar Conference,
a group of solar energy
enthusiasts, visited the
Riley’s and their new
heater. They included a
solar energy contractor, a
girl getting a Master's in
solar energy, and do-it-your
selfers. The Rileys gave
them donuts and coffee
while they inspected the
plastic, vent holes, and
insulated door.
The Rileys express great
enthusiasm for the addition
to their home. And, as
Bertha observes, their cat
likes it too.

wall behind him is painted green to absorb more heat. It evens out
temperatures by slowly releasing heat it stores at night.

floor, which will soon hold a water heater and patio/garden. .
