Congrats Husband & wife team ! I really enjoyed watching the construction of new home. Very satisfying that you both built your home together .I would suggest you put a gutter around roof & a rainwater tank to collect your own water ,If you have done this already after this video.
Hi, thanks for the comment, and I’m glad you enjoyed watching the video! I have seen the gutter and the water tank system being used as the off-grid water supply system in a self-build show from New Zealand, so I think I know what you are talking about. For the time being, we are off-gridding for the electricity, but not for the water because we’re there only once per week at most, and I wasn’t sure if the water tank would be okay in terms of hygiene if we’re not there all the time. Good idea, though!
@@diygen Well i live rural , in a small Queensland town in Australia .The ground water isn't really good to drink so, we 54 meter of roof to collect water . I have a 1 tank @ 22,000 litre .We have main power under ground in case of bush fires .Mail comes 3 times a week. We live here full time. The water is fine in a poly tank , as long as it has a stainless steel screen on the inlet hole to stop bugs & foliage from getting. Our main tank is full & over flows into a 1500 litre tank ,which we get close to being empty then it rains Just 2 inches of rain & small tank full again. Your best option should you decide to get the poly tank is a sand base or fine blue metal .Being prone to earth quakes it will move around slightly but, will settle back on the pad. Not tip over.
@@diygen We are here for the peace & quiet ,4hr to a major city .Like any piece of land you buy ,good & bad. We have 35 acres mostly bush ,But fully fenced 4 foot high ,It's call dog fence . Consist of 6 inch squares make up the fence. The ground is mostly "iron" very rocky & hard to dig. .We have a small garden with some vegies that will grow We buy potty mulch bags & plant in those 100 litre black tubs .At least we can move those around lol. . Your block look very nice where it's located , It looks like a brand new area .I hope you didn't hurt yourself when you fell off the ladder .You know if you still have some money left ,you could extend the from out 8 feet the long wall of the house (front door) & enclose it .For outside entertainment area . You picnic table BBQ when friend or family come over the summer .If you don't mind me asking ,what is your solar system rated as? Like how many kilo watts it makes. I'm guessing it's 12 volt lighting. Also in the build you or the wife showed 2 fans on the wall .Are they to suck fresh air in Or take it out. I hope i'm not taking to much of your time with Questions .
Our solar system we have at the moment is a temporary one with only max 175 watts. It is a 24V system. I guess it’s enough for the time being to run a fridge and lights. The system we’ll build later will be max 1600 watts. The fan we installed was a kitchen fan that takes out the air.
Sincere condolences to your queen. I was listening to queen’s speech the other day on RU-vid from when she visited Japan a few decades ago. Very moving. And, thank you for the comment! Compost is something I’ve been interested in. (In fact, we bought a compost toilet that we haven’t used for a while.) If there is any online material I can read on the topic, that would be superb. Oh, and comment in English is also welcome as I’m fluent. (I’m a 2nd gen Japanese-American.)

Thank you! I think you’re right. I’ve been getting more and more comments in English asking me for subtitles on other videos recently. I’ll start working on translating very soon!
