For hot water in the summer I use the water coming from the dam that is heated by the Sun in the pipe delivering it ,black polly pipe, and use the hot water tank to get the cold water.. the water straight from the pipe is too hot to use without the cold water from the hot water tank.. I like the idea of nuclear if we can build an arsenell to keep people from our precious Sunlight.
