For LNG you'll need a storage tank capable of handling -260=B0F liquid,
and a regasification setup. Much better off using NG :-))
---------------------------------------------------
I dont believe hot liquid is the way to go.
If you use a solid to store heat, you can use the dirt in your front
yeard.
------------------------------------------------------
An insolated tank made of a strong foam, sprayed with fiber glass, is
the most cost effective way.
------------------------------------------------------
No ugly water tank showing, with grass or plants growing above where the
tank is burried.
------------------------------------------------------
If liquid freon is used in the solar heaters,. an electric puump in not
necessary, Expansion of the freon, can be used to circulate the hot
liquid, this was done by the Servel referegerator company 50 years ago.
