How about putting retractable solar water heating panels over those windows?

i might do something similar when we eventually replace everything in our house with electric stuff, but for now we have a gas-powered water heater. i am saving for a full solar installation on our roof, though, which would power everything. solar is the one energy-producer we have here in absolutely wild abundance.

I met someone in GJ who excavated a pit, built a house in it, and walled it up on two sides so only exposed at two ends, the rest buried and banked.
At the time it seemed elaborate, but he was way ahead if me.

dang, approximately where in GJ? that’s where i’m located and i’d love to get some inspiration. i see some stuff like that in Fruita sometimes.

Sorry, no idea, was a student 20 years ago. He gave me some photos, might still have them on a pack rat hard drive.
