    You might be able to add a return line from inside the cabin to the diesel heater so it takes that warm air from the cabin and runs it past the heater and pumps hot air back in. It might make it a little more efficient.

    Love the sink! When I saw the exhaust for the heater, I remembered a vlog I watched a couple years back. The guy is a single homesteader in Arizona, he used the heat from exhaust to warm his water tank. Was interesting to watch, alas I don't remember the exact details. But it did work according to him.

    @user-bz6wr6xg7c 7 дней назад

    I love that sink! It is so cool! Great color, great size and the small details included with it make it really wonderful. I want one. I had a question about the silicone...I saw that you applied it underneath along the cut line. Will you be applying clear silicone where the edge of the lip meets the counter or is the white silicone all the way to the edge of the lip.?
    Placement of the sink and stove was so smart and was a good solution since counter space is a blessing. My small kitchen has practically no counterspace. When I am not using the oven I place a large 24" x 18" cutting board on top of the stove for much needed additional workspace.
    I can't wait for your next video and the next project!! 😊

    • @OffgridwithJayandJen
      @OffgridwithJayandJen  7 дней назад +1

      Hey, thanks. The white silicone starts white but dries clear and it is just for holding the sikk down. We will put a bead of silicone around the sink once it warms up and bit to keep it dry and waterproof. Appreciate you being here my friend

    I was wondering how your diesel heater was heating the little cabin. Especially since you have it outside. After watching your video when you installed the heater I ordered one for back up heat for our 40' camper that we have on our property in da Yoop. We have a small wood stove in it and it works great. But wanted a back up heat source. I'm going to install it outside but I was told that it won't heat as well. I'll find out this Saturday. Take care. Todd from da Upper Peninsula.

    • @OffgridwithJayandJen
      @OffgridwithJayandJen  8 дней назад +1

      Our install of the diesel hester is not perfect, so if you are looking for the best way....then I would install differently. BUT....if you are using it for back up or just on occasion I think this method is best. I personally wouldn't want it indoors to clutter stuff up and stink it up with diesel fuel. If not a daily or full time source of heat then I would recommend it. 😁
