Hi Maya , I’ve watched all your videos and enjoy and learned from them , you’re an amazing “hands on” woman that takes on every challenge with a smile and great optimism, even when you fail you just get up rethink things and solve any issue , we need more ladies like yourself in this world . Congratulations on all your achievements 👍👍💃🏼💃🏼
Don't forget to test the pipes before you are doing the concrete floor. You don't want to have surprises after everything is finished. A small hole can creat a big disaster. Apart for that, you are a strong woman. You will thrive in everything. 💪💪💪💃💃🕺🕺💪💪🤩🤩🤩
I totally agree. I had to lay 1.5km of underfloor heating and pressure tested every loop. In my case I found one of the pipe coils had been rolled over some old carpet grippers and had made a pin hole in the pipework. Without pressure testing I wouldn't have known until the finished floor was down. Each of those crimped joints is also a potential source of a leak as well. Pressure testing will give peace of mind before the screed is laid as you will know that every pipe and joint is fine 🙂 I would also suggest taking a photo of the pipe runs with tape measures laid on the floor before screeding (or concreting). If you have to fix into the floor in the future this will provide a record of where the pipes are and you can avoid hitting them.
Most novices would not even attempt half of what you do, Maya! You’re amazing and very resilient! It’s going to be great watching you complete the bathroom and laundry and it will make such a difference to the comfort of living there for sure!
You are such an inspiration to anyone wishing to either do diy or living alone abroad and going it alone, Such a woman. Your parents must be so proud. 💕
I totally agree with all the viewers regarding your achievements in restoring this property into an off grid functional quaint home … your ability to use logic and common sense as you go along is amazing … how clever to “design” a simple tool to assist with being able to work with all those meters of piping 👍👍 Without a doubt your river frontage is the gem on your property ! Durban SA🇿🇦
Maya, I’m always impressed with what you can do. Often by yourself you install, build, wire. Plum and roof. I was a handy young women because I couldn’t afford to pay someone. You’re doing way more complicated construction than I ever did. I feel proud of you when you’ve accomplished a new endeavor. Girl power !!!💪🏽
Hello Maya, We have also been watching from the beginning and WOW what a clever and talented young lady you are, you should be very proud of yourself and you are going to have a lovely home which you so deserve. Take care Michael and Carol xx❤
Wow, Maya. You’re pretty impressive, the way you take on all of these difficult tasks. I hope that everything works out well, that you don’t have any leaks, that your hot & cold water work well & stay appropriately hot or cold. What a difference this bathroom & laundry facilities will make. Amazing 😘🇨🇦
So lovely to follow you in your projects. You are such a talented and diligent worker. Your plot and nature are so wonderful. Good luck in the future. ❤
Maya you’re so inspirational! Every young woman should have a chance to spend some time with a young woman like you. Thanks for sharing your journey with us. A big hug from extremely hot sunny Florida ❤
Maya you doing a great job insulate before winter very wise you are amazing keeping the good work and I enjoy watching with your challenging days take care learning a new job very interesting good luck have a good day bye
You are so awesome Maya!! I'm always impressed with your skills. You so deserve your heated floors too !!Your architectural skills have helped you also!! I'm always waiting for your next video. I pray that God will strengthen your immune system also ❤🙏 Maybe you can eat some garlic and onions to help!! 😎❤️🙏
Good Morning Maya. Looking forward to watching this one. I enjoy watching your episodes on Sunday while I eat my breakfast. Have shared that on my own UA-cam Channel as I watch you muck around on your river land learning and growing and experiencing all the time. You should be so proud of yourself about how much you have done and learned and shared. Thanx for taking the time to film it all so we can share your adventures. Keep on keepin on my friend.

“Hi Maya, you should insulate your cold water pipe because it crosses with your hot water pipe and central heating pipe. Otherwise, Legionella bacteria can develop in your water, which can make you sick. A tip from a plumber.”
Great job Maya. Where you have run the water feeds to the basin underneath the heated floor pipes, there is a good chance that when the heated floor is on, your cold water may not be very cold. Can’t wait to see this bathroom finished!
And I wondered why there is floor heating beneath the toilet but then again I don't know anything about building houses so I guess Maya knows what she is doing?
Maya you just keep impressing us with your skills at jobs you’ve never done before like the floor heating piping, great job 👏 Love your dedication, determination and great attitude 😁💃
Nice work, but not sure if I would put joints in under the floor, and don’t forget to put insulation around the pipes where it comes out the floor where the concrete is, as it will expand a contract and the concrete will wear through the pipe overtime,
Always looking out for your videos. Love to see how you solve things as an non professional. Its just amazing to see you grow in doing things. One way or another way, but you achieve it everytime, alone or with some help from friends and neighbours
Hi Maya! You’re such an inspiration for me, too! Really amazing everything that you can do by yourself… So many achievements, so far! I can’t wait to see next episode.
Maya,sei fantastica ! Ho ristrutturato tre case da solo,facendo ogni mestiere cose varie ...ma l' impianto idraulico per me è stato sempre troppo difficile e ho chiamato sempre l' idraulico ...bravissima !
Your diligence, tenacity, patience and determination are impressive, to say the least. And all while keeping a smile on your face. It’s a pleasure to see you enjoying this journey, young lady!
Hi Maya,you are such a hard working person, an inspiration to all women who are told they can’t do something but they can do it. Amazing, good luck in all you do. Beijinhos.
When you get around to adding a wood burner to the circuit take care with flow temperatures. Wood burner run hot which works ok with traditional radiator systems. You'll find your pipe has a max flow temperature around 80C and generally you'll be running much lower (30C ) so you'd want to be 35-45C at the manifold. Swap to copper between the manifold and wood burner.
Absolutely love watching your videos. I look forward to each of them. Totally admire you. Your drive to do it yourself is incredible. The nature that surrounds you is exactly the environment that brings peace to me. I live vicariously through you when you film the water, trees, garden plants on your property. Spectacular. Just like you. Btw I loved the outfits that you work on this video. Hugs!
Oh Maya!!! You're so smart and talented!! How can you do all of this plumbing and make it look so easy? If I had to figure out this loop, it would take me 89 hours and I would cry and call a plumber to help me. 😅😅 You're just doing a fantastic job, I really admire your tenacity. ❤❤❤ love to you. Xx
Beautiful job, Maya. It's so exciting to see you work because we know it will be so much more comfortable for you in the winter. Perhaps you will eventually add a circular staircase so that you can go between the floors more easily in the winter. I hope you get some well-deserved rest and feel better soon! All the best!
Morning 😊, well done sorting the perfect loops, just as much planning time as building tike I'm sure. It's going to be lovely and snug in the winter months x
You are going to be so glad you put under floor heating in. Your rooms. I have in floor heating and I can assure you there is nothing in the world quite like putting your bare feet on a warm floor in the morning.
I've watched all your videos, starting nearly at the beginning and going back to see what I'd missed. You've become one of my few 'watch as soon as it's loaded' UA-cam channels because you are so calming. As others have said, even when things don't go as you planned, you find a way to move forward. I'm grateful to you for being open about both your positive and your stressful experiences; it helps me to see the whole picture of all that you are doing. I just finished a much smaller plumbing project using plastic pipe (re-building an old camper trailer), and I'd love to know just what pipe that is that you are using. I used CPVC. I'm no expert, but I don't know of any plastic pipe available here in the USA that is flexible yet will hold its shape after you bend it. Probably just ignorance on my part, but using it sure worked well for you!
nice work. i did this also myself some years ago. the things which i did in another way: all connections from the flexpipes only at the heat-distributor. so in concretefloor later no connections were pressed to avoid potential later leaks. and until now it works since 14 years without any leaks.
Bravissima, non avrei mai creduto che ti saresti avventurata nella stesura del riscaldamento a pavimento. Bava complimenti, sei una ragazza piena di risorse😊❤
Hi Maya, I love your positivity. You live in a beautiful place, how did you find it and how do you know what to do…each step, tools you’ll need? Have you ever been scared? I love your independence, thank you for sharing your videos with us❤❤
Very impressed by all you know how to do…and when you dont know how…you learn so well what needs to be done and you jump right onto it. I was much like you when Inwas younger. Now, with just a little age, and a lot of health issues, my mind is still willing, but my body yells no, before i can complete most jobs; which requires lots of rest breaks. Enjoy this time of your life while you are young
Love the channel and here is a hint for the future. Before you cover up the heating coils takes pictures from all four walls so you will know where they are if you have any problems of any kind. Really is a nice location. Keep at it.John from Oregon

Maya, I'm watching your videos from Siberia. Great progress towards sustainable living @@mayafeliz
@@mayafelizMaya, Penoplex doesn't need extra underfloor heating, it's warm to seat or stand on it even in minus temperatures

You took the words out of my mouth! 😅😊
pressure test the underfloor heating for leaks before pouring the concrete floor :)
I totally agree. I had to lay 1.5km of underfloor heating and pressure tested every loop. In my case I found one of the pipe coils had been rolled over some old carpet grippers and had made a pin hole in the pipework.

I’m 61 and I was today years old when I learned about heated towel drying racks. 🤷🏻♂️ What a rube I am! 😊

@@UmdogTR I’m studying a PHD, so a fairly motivated, I never stop learning. Are you familiar with the term ‘bellend’? As you are one, sadly 😂👍🏼
Whenever you say "l've never done this before...", you always do the task like a professional. Well done 👏👏
"It is pretty straight forward." Solely because you are calm and competent.
Hi Maya you are doing an excellent job to your home. I love you do so much own your own. Congratulations
You are such an inspiration to anyone wishing to either do diy or living alone abroad and going it alone, Such a woman.

Seeing that your vegetables are growing well made me ridiculously happy for you! I hope that when you harvest them they will taste wonderful!
