All other ways to heat or cool greenhouses
Initially I got inspired after watching this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6ArUM_hTtA. I made this improved version with two more T’s without drilling any hole. Then I saw another Youtuber to build a similar device – sorry I cannot find his video URL. I also find that you do not need to take Read more…
After numerous tests to improve the pellet burning woodgas stoves so that I could use one to add supplemental heat to my greenhouse, I find that all such stoves give out some smoke after the open flames have died out and the stoves have switched to the charcoal burning stage. Read more…
Woodgas stove normally has three stages: (1) lighting it up from the top using lamp oil, camp fire starter, or whatever you see fit; (2) gasification to turn wood into combustible gases (H2, CO, methane, etc.), also know as pyrolysis; (3) continued burning of the leftover charcoal by turning it Read more…
Two stoves were built, one mini with food can and one big using 4L paint can and 4 inch tin vent pipe. As shown in four types of woodgas stoves built and compared, it proves that the 4th design produced higher temperature and cleaner burning, this test now is focusing Read more…
All variations of this type of stove have been categorized into four groups. Four built accordingly to find out which one does the job the best – complete and clean burning all the way to the end. All aluminum inside the 3rd and 4th stoves were melt (the melting point Read more…
In order to explore more economic and simpler ways to add supplemental heat to greenhouses, I have studied the so-called Rocket Stove. After watching quite a few videos on YouTube, I have come up this configuration which does not need chipping, digging or mortar. Hope you like and build one Read more…
