BUILD A SOLAR WALL OVEN by Barbara Kerr (Photo: Barbara with her solar Wall oven and solar hot water heater below for direct kitchen use.) Barbara Kerr didn't begin solar cooking until she was 50, and now at 80+ is an expert and inventor for solar methods. She patented her unique solar wall oven design, and continues to teach solar and low-fuel methods (Rocket stove cooking ala' Dr. Larry Winiarski's design) to this day in Snowflake AZ. This small booklet is a step by step on how to build and use a permanent (plywood or wood) solar box cooker that can be mounted through a wall in a kitchen, barn, shed, even bathroom or hallway to make hot water, sterilize baby clothing, and cleaning cloths (dairy and animal) warm chicks, seedlings, and of course to COOK. Prepare everything from cassaroles, desserts, meat, fish, and fowl, to sanitizing water for safe drinking (and heating it for coffee and tea). Barbara built her solar oven through her kitchen wall which allows effortless solar cooking, no burning, and no fuel needed. These solar box ovens can be pre made and used on site while building a house at a remote location, and used to cook meals, warm foods, and heat water for washing up for workers, then installed into the kitchen. Any south facing wall- for the northern hemisphere :) --can be utilized- even in travel trailers and mobile homes. Or cook ovens can be left outside mounted on a rotating table to track the sun for optimum efficiency. 5"x7" booklet teaches how to make and use. Published 1999. |
