Ceiling Trim, Plumbing Started, Viewer Mail | Busy Week on our Alaska Off Grid Homestead

  • This week we work on installing trim on the living room ceiling, begin installing the roof stack for plumbing and get some really helpful viewer mail. We changed the layout of the living room so now I can look out the window instead of having it to our backs. My favorite part, I was able to put up some decorations! Feeling more like home with every project.
    Don’t forget to join us next week for a big addition to our solar setup!

    Personally I think that T&G would look really good in your kitchen.
    The ceiling trim really transformed the look. Very nice.
    Also, I really like the American flag that you put up.

    Just an fyi, I wouldn't use a T on the top of the vent. That makes a good spot for a small birds nest or wasp nest, etc. It anything, use a 90 degree elbow. Don't need to worry about water because the vent pipe should be glued and goes to the septic.

    I know it was a tight spot and you probably don’t have to deal with codes and what not, but the pipe going through the roof should’ve been at least 3” the heat and the cold air will make frost and will choke the vent , it’s only during the winter and vents are over rated, love the ceiling

      @ouralaskahomestead  Місяць тому +1
