A guy up the road from me set this up 2 years ago. He has two 4' x 8' solar exchangers on his roof. Cost him about 8k, but he claims to have saved $1400 / yr on heat.
It was a nice installation, which is why I struck up a conversation with him about it. Most installations seem awkward or scabbed on, but this was flush against his roof and nice & clean. I am seriously considering the same thing within a couple years.
