Almost the definition of a storm, rather than a gale (apart from windspeed). The isobars are very close together, so a rapid change in windspeed as pressures try to equalise. Quite common down here, why we don't have many trees or tall buildings.

After the 1987 storm that hit the SE of England, friend of mines brother went out with a chain saw to cut some logs up for firewood. At least there was no shortage of timber to make his coffin after a tree fell on him.

Like a statue in a university city.

It is what sets the power output for any given temperature.

Slave trading trog.

Did that to part heat my parents swimming pool. It worked reasonably well. That was nearly 40 years ago and what started to get me interested in the RE business.

They can pull electrical cables through some of the existing pipework. May be more cost effective.

As long as your calculations show that there is enough power delivered at the lower temperature, I can't see a problem.

Toronto is at the same latitude as Madrid.

Shall get my turtle neck sweater out.

Emptying the can I am told.

Will do, when I know what my schedule is for Mothercare this weekend.

Seems most of the work is already in place. Just a case of trapping some warmth and shifting it about.

What is the roof and walls made from?

My Ex BiL lives there, about time I visited him after my sister took him for every penny. Now there is an idea. Get it all frothy and see how it performs.

It is close to what I did for my BSc, about time someone tried it out. I even had a cheap storage device. Can do, what is your nearest town? Not may leaves in winter.

So you got about 100m2 of almost south facing roof. When you get some time, find a sheet of something, insulation would be best. Get up in the eves and fit it 200mm below the inner roof. Seal all the edges, cut a hole at the top and the bottom for a small bathroom fan, wait till it is sunny, pump some air though and see what happens temperature wise. If you can capture 50W.m-2, that is 5 kW. Going to be up your way, again, again, come the weekend.

Right, let us get serious about this. Rough sketch of the place, with dimensions and roof angles. Compass orientation as well. Any chance of a wind turbine? https://windempowerment.org/the-piggott-turbine/

I recently looked into drilling a small hole in an existing posi joist and all the evidence suggests no form of drilling or notching is allowed. Have you checked this How do they cope with screwing down floorboards?

Who knows, I am a good Methodist.

Used to have a car sticker that said: "Keep Portland Weird" (and I know it is a US import)

Couple of times, after working on my similar system, I have had an airlock. Open tap and sucked on it like Stormy Daniels on Donald Trump. Soon worked again.

Not the cost of the machine, or the materials. https://m.alibaba.com/product/62219800864/polyurethane-spraying-machine-foam-making-machine.html
