4'x8'x3'-tall plywood tank lined with a single folded piece of EPDM

with a $60 300'x1" PE black pressurized plastic pipe coil to make hot
water
Would a copper coil not be much more effective, high pressure PE must
have a thick wall, that does not help heat exchange.
Probably 30' of copper would work better, yes it would cost more, but
would improve collection efficiency and produce greater output!
