I was just looking at my house and started thinking about,

Those three little windows and how I could make them gather more solar..
The glass is 38.5 x 22.75 with a fat middle blockage..

I'm thinking of a 25"w x 5"h x 12"d fan box that would install on the sill like a window AC.
Connected to the box would be a hanging solar collector..
The collector would be about 30' wide, 6" deep and 48" long..

The fan box section would be only 5" tall, so most of your window would be unobstructed.
While the 4' collector hung down below the window, out of sight, out of mind..
