In fact, the air manifold is just a box, the bottom of which is laid insulation (mineral wool or sawdust), and on top of the insulation is laid a sheet of thin metal (playing the role of absorber), painted black heat-resistant paint. Top of box covered with glass.

So take a glass window with a thickness of about 3 mm in size 74х44 cm and the metal sheet 0,8 mm.



Make a wooden box for the aerator and insulated it with glass wool. On top of the aluminum film.



For sealing joints between frame and glass paving conventional rubber window seal.



Glass fastened with metal strips and wooden planks, with nails nailed to the frame. All painted with black paint.



Old wardrobe do the drying for vegetables. Shelves made from old metal grid for chickens.
