In this episode, we continue building our solar batch water heater. Once complete, this tank will give us free hot water, courtesy of the sun!
It really is amazing what two people can do together when they have a genuine respect for one another and laugh and love so easily. You both have a really great attitude on life and your overall treatment of yourselves and one another. Home is where the heart is, and your home is overflowing with heart. Hold on to and cherish that as it will get you through all things.
This episode should be called "How to Pimp my Solar Batch Water Heater" WOW it came out very very nice. Love the detail work you two put into it. Do it once and DO IT ABSOLUTELY RIGHT with STYLE!!!!
It is pleasant to see Husband and Wife working together and living a fulfilling happy life.
I love how you are so down to earth and the way you work to together is soo wonderful
Agreed!!! Life goals 💯
If you were to paint the corrugated metal panels (back and sides) flat black, you'd have a more efficient passive solar collector that would help maintain the ambient temp inside the box and not reflect light outside of the box.
I'm guessing that you're going to put a sheet of lexan or acrylic on top to seal the box. The black water tank along with black sides and back panels lining the interior, could provide you with a dual purpose passive solar collector that not only heats the water, but could also be setup to pump heated air into the house. A simple setup involving a thermostat and a couple of fans (intake and exhaust) would help to passively heat your home when needed.
System installation looks great, you put a lot of for thought into it. Also it appears Bear has gotten more protective of Mommy to be. Wishing you both all the happiness in the world. ❤️
That's why Bear was crying and worried when she was preparing the downspouts up on the roof. Love you Bear!
I noticed that too...dogs have a sixth sense about pregnancy.
In the future I’m hope y’all will make a greenhouse for fresh vegetables and your overflow water will have extra purpose.
Or a hydroponic garden
an aquaponic system will also work just fine :)
Yes, that's my goal to have a garden. Now if I can just get beef, chicken, goats, ducks and eggs from my sisters farm I'll be set. I don't want all those animals because I'll get to attached.
yes you could put in a sprinkler system for the garden. or a metal tub for the animals outside the fence
The suspencer is killing me I need more!
I was in the Army running 4 miles every day while pregnant. staying active is the perfect thing to do while pregnant. you go girl. house and water heater is looking great
I really enjoy your videos and love the music could you give a list of the music you use
You go girl 💪
Just read the warnings on those paints and stains.
Priscilla bohn does anyone have an address for this couple in Life Uncontained?
I had a miss shaped hat when I was kid,I remove it With wire
I start getting excited about every Thursday, waiting for the next posting. you two are amazing! and they never seem to be long enough. I just want more! I just love watching you build your dream!
Behind Every Brilliant Man, There is a Very Beautiful Lady and Without Bear The Toolmate, The Show Would not Be The Same . Congratulations Guys, You Guys Will Be Great Parents, What a Beautiful Family, Enjoy Life ! 😊❤
We look forward to each of your videos, progress is moving right along and love how clean & finished each of your projects are. You can tell thought and planning went into them!
I had my doubts with the water tanks so I'm glad to hear they are working as planned.
If you flat black the interior corrugated metal and seal it behind glass, your temps should come up even more.
Can you come do mine?
The paint on the batch tank is quite shiny, which will reflect a lot of sunlight. You might consider giving it a coat of hi-temp flat black. Also, with the dramatic amount of rain collection you're getting, make sure the end of the overflow from the storage tanks is sufficiently far from the tanks to prevent what could turn out to be some serious erosion. Good work, you two.
I just found your channel last week and am now going back through and watching your old videos. The attention to detail is amazing. Can't wait to see everything all finished. It is going to be amazing and one of the best built homes around!
I don’t know if anyone has already suggested this already, so if the have I will just say sorry in advance. Run the corrugated sheeting with the channels running vertical instead of horizontal and the sunlight will not be
reflected back out the box so much.
Spencer really has a knack for that stained cedar siding. It looks great.
I've watched every one of your videos. And I'm genuinely impressed at your resolve to create everything you both have made!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
So cool that you're documenting this important part of your lives and that in the future you'll be able to share it with your children. Thank you for sharing your journey.
I really, really love your love. God bless you both and especially the tiny one within.
When you like the video before it even starts lol i love you Guys ♥️ but i wanna see the walls made ! I wanna see the rooms ... Well i should just watch and appreciate your work ♥️ you're Amazing
@UCOCeItODoluMyHnYV9L4-iQ yeah i know don't worry, just saying that i'm impatient for the finished product
As for the inspector, i don't know really i don't live in the states
I wish you much luck and happiness raising your baby. I can't seem to justify watching this channel any longer. I've never recieve any type of reply from you two ever. And I've been here a VERY long time. Good luck and I'm gonna miss ya. Toodles
😂
Hey Guys! I have been following your progress for a year or so, and I am excited to see how far you have come! I teach Architectural Design to high school students, and in mid September I asked them to design a tiny home using shipping containers. Now that they have mostly completed their designs, I have been sharing your videos that focus on exterior and interior design and layout. I especially appreciated your walk through of the floor plan after the framing was mostly completed on the inside. It was a great opportunity to show my students how a small home can have the look of a spacious home with the several design elements you have incorporated. The open floor plan and raised center roof and windows really pulled that off nicely. Many of my students chose to use more than one container, decks and porches, pocket doors, and the open floor plan. Your videos provided an excellent opportunity to show students many design characteristics of shipping container home design from the ground up. Everything from the concrete piers, to the wall and ceiling framing, how plumbing and wiring is handled, and strengthening the roof where the side panels were removed were discussed with my students.
Your videos are helping/inspiring young architects and future tiny home builders here in Rhode Island. Thanks for sharing all your hard work and the tremendous effort you both put in to you videos and your home.
A suggestion: the corrugated metal should be oriented vertically rather than horizontally. Horizontal orientation will reflect 50% of light back into the sky, while vertical orientation will only reflect from side to side and therefore increases your efficiency.
Watching “Bear Bear” sitting in your lap made me think of all the fun outdoor baby/toddler projects your gonna have to do: Sand box, Swing set, Stroller docking station (I just made that up😬), Sun deck, Swimming pool (kiddie and Bear size), etc., Spencer is gonna be (if not already) a Master Carpenter soon!
It's really coming together! Nice to see that the baby is really growing! Glad to hear how much water you have already collected from the 3 rains. Am enjoying the updates even if the video is on the short side. Another great rain to help fill the water tanks. Great video as always & fantastic update on the hot water! Thank you for sharing your update and will be anxiously waiting for the next update!
You guys are one of my favorite UA-cam channels. I love watching you guys grow in life together. Congratulations on your new daughter, Beau! You’ve just entered the best part of life. I know it is probably strange to hear this from a total stranger, but, I am very happy for you guys.
Keep looking forward to your videos, you guys are amazing!
The end scared the shit out of me! Are you ok? Knowing Bear was close by makes me feel better. 😊 He is a great protector
Thank you for sharing your amazing story/adventure. I’m sure it’s been challenging in ways that we’ll probably never know because of not actually “standing in your shoes” - but you both make it a pure joy to “peek over your shoulder” thru the process. Thank you for being real and sharing it all with us.
I think I have watched every vid from the start and loved them all. What makes them even better is the care you take producing the videos, I bet it takes an age to edit them but it’s so worthwhile. Herefordshire, UK.
Great video love the water system. I see your house is on blocks. I lived in a home like that. It was on piers off the ground. It was ok but the feral cats seemed to like fighting under the house, which meant a bad night of sleep. In the winter the breeze under the house made it a challenge to stay warm. Anyway something to think about.
You to are AWESOME and BLESSED.
Richard Sanchez that is a very good point! That wind blowing under the house is going to suck a lot of heat away! It needs some kind of skirting. Even straw bails if nothing else for now. And I have lived in a Mobile home with skirting loose in a few places. My cats made the skunks mad right under our bed room. We almost threw up in the middle of the night when they let go! Yeah! It needs some kind of skirting!!!!
Awww that lovey kiss was so adorable ! 💚💚💚 your a good man !
Spencer putting every other man into the dog-house.
Lol i will give mine a pass he did the dishes and did some laundry yesterday!!! 😂
Amazing you two, I can't begin to tell you how much I enjoy watching you both work on things and get so excited when you post a new video. I think a greenhouse in the future would be an excellent idea like someone suggested, then your overflow would serve a great purpose as well. I love the two of you and know you are going to be great parents and this home is going to be amazing. Thank you again.
Greatest admiration of you guys and your build. Can't wait to see the end result and you all settled in, you've worked so hard. You put the 'T' in team!
Looking forward to seeing the finished product , been thinking of the whole solar energy thing a lot
BEEN WAITING FOR THIS SO LONG😍
You two are just the greatest! I wish you all the best in all you do.
You too are building a beautiful house!!! It's just fun to watch you both !!! Thank you 😊
Take a look at "Reflectix" for the back wall of the water heating enclosure. Foil on each side of bubble wrap. Great stuff.
That waterheater is looking great you guys. Have an amazing weekend Andreas from Off Grid Sweden 🇸🇪
You guys impress the hell out of me every week I can’t wait to see more on the inside
Like your music selections especially on this episode. I've been watching your build for long time and I've always enjoyed it over all. Look forward to the next sode, keep up the good work and stay safe.
you two are so freakin AMAZING!!!! at what your doing, wow I wish I knew how to do all you do. THANK YOU FOR SHARING n Hi to lil baby, dog n donkeys n cows.
The bump is growing....I love how the donkey is always somewhere in the videos.
I am constantly amazed at what you know to do and all that you've sorted out. Looks great!
Spencer....am amazed with this guy, REALLY! ... I can see he does EVERYTHING from the pipes for the water system to the electrical and what have you..you are a very fortunate wifey!!...way to go, so what can't he do anyway?!?
Let me like it first.... now I’m going to watch it.
Same.. i already know... im gonna like the video, before even watching it.
Love watching your videos. God is good and you are blessed.
It amazes me how much he knows about doing things to the house! U guys are awesome!
So nice to see all the attention to detail!! I built my tiny house in only eighty days and missed so many of the little things that make it perfect!
You know, that Donkey standing around watching ya'll work, reminds me of Donkey in the Shrek movies!!
The old black and white movies, Francis the talking donkey, or mule I forget lol
@@DHarri9977 Absolutely!! And Mr. Ed as well!!!
@@davidkaufmann4513 Thank you for getting my reference, lol
Spencer has a Aussie Bush Hat!!
I am always sad when your videos end, I could watch you guys all day! You do amazingly cool stuff and I love seeing it all come together!
Cant wait for the interior work! 😁 getting exciting, you guys have done so much
Been waiting all week
I wore my hubby's shirts while pregnant too. Cute!!
You guys are great! You work really well together and it’s obvious there’s lots of love and your family...🌈☀️👍🏻
I love how you are a perfectionist!! Great quality to have even if take a little extra time! Keep it up
if you install the rear siding vertically, i don't think you would loose the solar radiation since it would be reflected towards the tank
The best way would be to angle all metal surfaces so they're directly at the tank - ie not corrugated sheets, but individual slats. That's so much work though that I think what they are doing will probably be enough. If not come back later rather than over engineer it too much now.
Like everyone is saying, it needs to be flat black on the whole inside. That would be the biggest help.
Great job....👍👏
Hope everyone & everything is ok .
The ending sounded scary...
I can't wait for you guys to get started back on the inside of your home. I'm excited to see what it's going to look like
WOW FINALLY FINISHED ALL YOUR VIDS,OVIEDO FL. WHAT HARMONY YOU BOTH HAVE WITH LIFE AND WELLALL THAT COMES WITH IT.....YOU HAVE MADE MEMORIES FOR THE REST OF YOUR JOURNEY TO REFLECT SHARE.CONGRATTS...
I know that you guys have the inside of the house prepared for the little one, but you guys are not showing us yet.... So i(we) will continue to watch, wish you guys would post more, especially now before baby comes.....because that will be an even busier time...love this adventure and love y'all and thanks for sharing...
I’d love to have a dog like Bear, helping me finding my tools! 😛
I need a dog to help me find my teeth and glasses! LOL
I bet her partner was in the shed stuffing the driver into the dogs mouth
Having a container home design is super I really like what I see I really want my own home design know keep the videos coming love it🤩🤩🙏🏽🙏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I love all the detail work you put into your projects.
I think you can improve the temperature by painting everything in the box flat black including the walls.
I was scrolling through the comments to see if anyone else thought the same thing!
@@shawnbrooks1004 I had the same thought...
They could test it pretty easy by lining the inside walls with black tar paper temporarily before painting anything.
@@george8873 could use black trash bags also for testing
@@jimhardesty2012 The plastic might be too reflective to absorb as much heat as flat black tar paper, but it'd be worth trying too.
Hey Guy's had a thought id like to share. You had issues where the sunlight was reflected out of your water heater box. So my thought was that if you would use either a 2 way mirror with reflective side in or mirrored window tint reflective side in you could essential trap the sun light in the solar box and have a more efficient heater.
You guys are so much better than Pure Life for Living. Love the progress so far. I’m watching from the start . Australia 🇦🇺
Now i know you need to watch at least 30 seconds of an ad before you guys make money....i now watch them ......lol......that is how much i love you guys and want to support the channel!
Ah, the classic cliff hanger. Well done. 👍🦆
Good job doing from scratch!
I've been watching almost from the beginning and look forward to your progress every time! Congrats on the baby too! I just wanted to drop a note to remind y'all that most all wildflower seeds are sown in the Fall - so time to do a bit of research and make sure you only get seeds that cows can eat!
I never saw any wildflowers growing last Spring at your place, so I've been wondering when you'll be getting around to it! It's almost time now! As soon as the weather gets a bit cooler, THAT'S the time for it.
Then all those flowers will be popping up soon after the baby! It'll be perfect timing! Lot's of us Texans do a whole lot of gardening during the cooler time of year, you can grow SOOOOO MUCH where y'all are!
P.S. Plant a big patch of Dill this Fall/Winter and you'll automatically have a big ol' Swallowtail Butterfly Nursery Patch in April/May !!! Give those Mom's a few flowers to sip on too!
Good Luck w Everything ♡ !!!
I look forward to your videos every Sunday .Good Luck to you both and your little bub when he comes
When the rain started, I thought, "Well at least we know there's plenty if cold water."
Love your Donkeys !!
Love how y'all adjusted plans to achieve optimal performance from the solar hot water heater. Have binge watched all your episodes, extremely rare for me.
Looking great! Sweet baby bump, hope you are feeling well.
I can see why you married that girl. She is beautiful, smart, and can light up a room with her smile!🥰
Beautiful? 😂😂😂
Can’t wait to see if the heater actually works
Oh they work, been using my since 2000
I've watched all of your progress since day one. You guys are just awesome!
Wishing you all the best and may your baby be born healthy.
Love from North-East India...
Ahhh...the good ole classic camera falling over in the rain and wind... every time....haha. Build is coming along great y'all.
Hi there you two and half, just would like to know will the house be livable by time the baby is due. Enjoy your videos very much
The hat makes Spencer look like an Aussie.
Just have loved watching these two love and grow together on growing together on all their projectes their amazing familyl😊
Love it, and the little cuddle kiss you are both blessed. x.
I love how Spencer kissed you while holding your baby bump
Stop it Spencer....you're putting us other men to shame.
I vomited in my mouth reading that comment.
No more PDA Please, lol
Me too !!!
you liked that ? You shoulda seen the moves ol Spence put on her when they made the bump ! U lucky dog u !! LOL
U should try the metal vertically like ur barn
This has been well planned 150 degree water is pretty hot. And then there is Bear handing out the correct tools way to go fur baby. I look forward to the weekend to see what is next I am never disappointed.
It's coming along pretty good! Great job! Great team work! Can't wait for the next video!
By the time you get it all finished and with the expanding family. You're going to need a bigger house! lol
Easy enough to tack another container on to the side 😉😂
New Container all ready ordered 😉
Try turning the corrugated metal vertical instead of horizontal.
Wonderful job. Great catch on the heating problem. Thanks for taking us along.
Great Bear has no more cone of shame. You guys are doing an amazing job as well👍
Are you planning on digging up a large spot for an underground cistern to hold overflow water to water animals, pets, produce and your lawn? I enjoy your videos every time. That donkey always seems to photo bomb your videos.
The paint should be flat black, shiny back reflects
You guys are relationship Goals for the rest of us. Thanks! Been missing the out takes at the end end of the video.
You are an amazing couple. Stay safe and protect the bump.
