Nice idea, i saw one project that was made of 7 AMD GPU's connected with the sunlight water collectors system - guy managed to heat water in 300L water tank to near of 65C' then transfered the water to usage water in his house what caused lowering cost of heating the water ex. for bath - 65 C' is actually very comfortable temp for home usage.

Even the last couple years I was in Iowa, which has actual COLD winters (PNW has very mild winters), I had to keep at least 2 windows open partway with fans running in the intake window to avoid OVERHEATING my home.

Yes, friend, I have heard about this innovation either. However, if my memory does not deceive me, the square of the heated territory is just around 14 meters. Maybe if electricity is not so expensive, many can support this idea.

this bullshit idea for heating with miners.
The air in the room where works mining farm is dry and unpleasant. also from many many miners outgoing radiation

There is more radiation from the smartphone in your pocket than from the mining rigs in your next room.

I am doing this as we speak. I had the house well insulated and so now instead of using 3 bitcoin miners to keep the uninsulated house warm, I now only use one. The lowest I think was about 46 F but even though I hate spending money on the electricity bill. It has not been too cold here but it makes me feel better that the energy being used is not being completely wasted.

There is a backup heater on standby just in case the temperature drops too low. I guess I could set up a thermostat to turn additional miners on and off as needed but I do not think the mining pools would be too happy with that.

By the way, I am not earning too much since my miner is just an old S1 180 Gh/s unit but something is something.

I'm running 14 CPU units here in the Pacific North West - And our winter's can get somewhat cold. Thus far - temps in the low 30's Fahrenheit, heats a well insulated part of the home - 450 square feet - just adequate - without any supplemental heat needed. Less wood for splitting this winter -

I have recently found some curious news saying that 2 Russian guys have created a unique system for heating houses — their devices operate on the basis of mining farms. This stuff can also mine BTC.
Curious if the other countries will follow their unique experience?
