When you`re out of electricity, you still want to have a way to get hot water. That is exactly what this guy invented – a homemade water heater that doesn`t require you to have any electricity to work. It`s made out of a brass coil pipe placed in a wood furnace and connected to a regular water heater. The pipe has two ends at the top and the bottom and they are respectively connected to the top and the bottom of the heater. Cold water pumps through the bottom coil, drives the water through the hot coil and furnace and it comes out on the top end, driving it right back in the boiler.
Then, the water goes through the same process again – cold water is taken out and piping hot water is put back in. The hot water is mostly steam though, as the temperature this furnace develops is over 500 degrees! This homemade water heater is perfect for any outback adventures or eventual apocalyptic scenarios where power goes out. It`s not hard to make at all, as it is made of a furnace, a coil, some fuel in the form of sticks, some valves and a regular water heater.
