Oh my, this is so, so helpful!!!!! Thank you so much for sharing all this knowledge! Drainage pipes is a great solution! I am so glad I found you!!
feel free to ask anything anytime or email me on [email protected] .. im happy to help people!
Thank you so much! I know I'll have lots more questions as time goes on. Your articles are super informative. Being on the coast in a hurricane zone, I think the tires will be a really good idea for the foundation.
yes definitely good for hurricanes.. most important will be your roof and choosing a strong and durable option..
Definitely. Lots of good, local knowledge on that one thankfully.
OH, and I have to say, that bath. So beautiful. Makes me wanna cry. Earthen bathtub is way up there on my list.
oh that bath is the highlight ;=) it's actually a jacuzzi and runs totally on solar. The water is heated with solar, and the power is also photovoltaic.
I love it because the tables are turned. At the end of the day the water is already hot and ready to go.. it is a waste NOT to have a piping hot bath here many nights! ;-))
mine isnt earthen in the end.. for various reasons, but i did do it once.. Its fun to be able to sculpt your tub! watch our for the ergonomics though, mine wasn't the most comfortable to be honest ;-) it was the shape of a pair of lips, lol!
Most excellent tip! I will research ergonomics before shaping! And, yes, I'm super excited to have solar hot water. Right now we have an instant water heater fueled by butane. I'm ready to make the switch!
yes.. and i have a gas heater like yours as backup! there are times when we have weeks of cloud.. so we can use it if we really need.. we hardly use it most of the year..
Good to have a plan b!
