    -22 is really cold but very dry, so it's OK as long as one has adequate clothes. In the beginning of this year we had almost -40 where I live and THAT was not fun at all 🥶.

    These kind of houses can be very cheap because it isn't located in a convenient place. Housing closer, or in, cities where there are schools, daycares, supermarkets, hospitals and so on are a lot more expensive, especially this size. If you want a gorgeous house, lots of land, don't mind renovation (these houses can be old and might need an upgrade or 2) and don't mind driving far to get somewhere these kind of properties are great!

    These air to air heating units are common in older houses as they are a very energy efficient way to heat the house, essentially in good conditions you can get 3-4 times more heat out of the unit than you put in in terms of electricity compared to electric radiators

      Yes, these "ac" units are heat pumps as well. 40-60% saving to warm your home.

    Heat pumps are kinda great in many ways. Very effective way for heating and chilling. Basically an AC you can run both ways.

    The air heating and air condition units of those types is very similar, many (possibly most) of the air heating units can be used as air condition units when needed.

    -22 is something you get used to after a day or 2, from -30 it begins to get closer to staying indoors temperatures, at -40 its no fun at all, and I avoid starting the car and such. Those are days spent by the fire place. At least for me, living i a log cabin in the northern forest of Sweden. Challenges arrive when having to spend 4-5 hours shovelling the 1-2 ft of snow that dropped the night before. Or when the electricity is down for a couple of days, or clearing blown over trees etc. Benefit further north is that we get our beloved "fifth season".

    • @DennisJonsson-m7n

      @@charonstyxferryman No, its the time around march and april, where we start to get the sunlight and warmth back, being bright from 6-7 in the morning to 8-10 in the evening, with 3-8ft (and some places over 12-15ft) deep snow, where we spend our leisure time grilling, eating, drinking, playing and ice fishing on the lakes and in the mountains for a month or two. When its sunny, the snow i so white that you get burns on your retina if you dont have good sunglasses and things like that.

    • @DennisJonsson-m7n
      @DennisJonsson-m7n 11 дней назад

      I am gonna link a youtube clip here, its a 11-12 year old snowmobile trailer made by som pretty talented people. I would say most of the sunniest scenes are from that fifth season, wich in the higher mountains and furthest up north reaches past midsummer. It also shows a big part of the culture we have and love up here. the snowmobile culture, wich in this clip only shows one aspect here, but the most fun and spectacular aspect, and something many of us do to different degrees. And its a big part of the culture for us that have grown up here share and love. And something that is never ever shown in videos from people that has moved here. who only show their own view and small part of the north. My own spare time during winter is clearing snowmobile trails, grooming trails, hauling wood, checking if the ice on the lakes are safe and so on. and many many hours of shovelling snow.. ;) however, here is the clip, and this IS a very big part of northern swedish culture. (some aspects might vary a bit by age)

    -22 it is so cold that you are not outside for more than 2 hours -25 then down to 1 - 2 hours -30 30min. if you don't have is the right clothes for it. air conditioning is cheaper to heat a house than electricity in the long run because it blows out hot air and the element only heats what is around and does not extend as far and it takes longer to heat a house.

    I live in the south of Sweden but have a few times been in -20 or -25. If it is dry and less than 1m/s winds it is not bad. If the winds go above a breeze though...
    Worst I have felt was -17 with gale force winds.... Brrrrrrr, cuts straight through your jacket and chills your bones instantly...

  • @znail4675
    @znail4675 12 дней назад +1

    -22 degrees centigrade, that's an ordinary winter day and can be quite comfortable.
    It gets worse if it's windy at the same time though.

    Like air condition in a car those units can both cool the air (down to 15°C usually) and heat the air (up to around 30-32°C usually).

    Hi, the coldest we've had where I live was -45C degrees outside many years ago. It's not unusual for us to have over -30 degrees or a few weeks. Just last winter, we had a power cut, I had it for over 24 hours. In -almost -40 degrees Outside.Others had 2-3 days without power in the cold.Hate winter

  • @Nevolet
    @Nevolet 12 дней назад

    -22 is a normal winter day where i live in sweden. It doesn't feel to bad, just a normal day. The coldest i think i've experienced is -42 degrees , that is cold, your eyelashes freezes up, your hair gets white, your breath immidiatley turns to a cloud, your teeth starts to ache from the cold if you make the mistake of opening your mouth. every step you take sounds crispy.,

  • @Tobsson
    @Tobsson 11 дней назад

    Somewhere around -10 is the worst as there is a possibility for the air to still have some humidity. It HURTS on the skin. -22 is dry and won't eat you alive in the same way. As long as you wear enough clothes it's fine.

  • @AHVENAN
    @AHVENAN 10 дней назад

    I'd say -22 is cold, but its ok. You just have to wear the right clothing, like that dude should wear a hat. Head is most important to cover. -30 is when I start to struggle, and if it nears -40 I'm dead 🤣

  • @stiglarsson8405
    @stiglarsson8405 3 дня назад

    Yes there is a reason for that price.. and that is that its locateded in "Nowhere"!
    Its okey for a young couple.. but could be an inconveneance when one get children!
    However.. there is a lot of good coments belowe on how to live in such house!
    Soo I do like to talk about chimneys and fire places, they are important and regulated by laws, communal rules and by ones home insurance company!
    Soo.. in more populated areas, its more about the fireplace dont polute the air to much!
    The communal rules is about avoid fire hazard.. even in new buildt homes so no builder rips you of and that other houses dont get caught in a fire!
    And ofcourse if ones house burns down, the comunity need to take care of you.. thats expensive!
    Another reason for our "kommuner" = adminstrative comunitys.. is there need to be a chimney sweeper organisation, they need personel and salarys.. everyone need to pay for a chimney sweep every year!
    Its kinda the same for insurance companies.. they like that you pay, but hate to pay out.. if the house burns down!
    Its this in ones insurance rules for the house.. one need to follow national laws and communal rules/use ones chimney sweeper at least every year!
    And when one buy a house.. especialy if its old.. been used as a summer cottage for several yers.. an "chimney sweeper special inspection"! If ts safe to use in winter for heating!
    Many houses in the countryside have been used as summer cottages.. there chimney maintance can often be reduced or neglected!

    -22 isn't that bad, even at the coast, since the sea freezes, it's dry. I prefer -30 over 0 any time. It's something I dislike about living in the far south of Sweden (being similar to the north of England/Scotland)

      @herrbonk3635 12 дней назад

      But the warm and comfortable season is pretty short up in the northern parts of Sweden, typically only juni, juli, augusti. So it can be several months shorter than the april, maj, juni, juli, augusti, september, oktober we often get in southern Svealand (or Götaland or Skåne).

  • @Nevolet
    @Nevolet 12 дней назад

    Aa house like this in a village would be alot more expensive, this is probably the north of sweden that is not very popular. In my area (30 km in a small village outside of a small to middle sized town in the middle/north sweden). And that house where i live would go for 4-5 times as much money as his house did. You could also get that kind of house for 400 000 swedish kr.

      @ I live in the north of Skåne and last Winter we had two day with snow that disappeared in just some hours. When I was young and lived in the south of Sweden it was not uncommon with a half up to one meter with snow that lasted the whole winter. And even some winters, like 78/79 where w hade up to two meters with snow. But now…man, I’m still wearing shorts and it’s November and it’s not even cold!

    -22 C feels cold... Nothing else to say. xD And also... the more remote your house is, the cheaper it gets. I reckon that just about anyone who's working and saves up money for a few years would be able to afford something like that. The biggest questions are whether you're willing to live so remote and away from everything, and have the energy to renovate it and maintain it. :P These things are very important for old houses like these, or else they will eventually fall into disrepair. And these things ofcourse, cost as well.

    You need more than a house. First you need a tractor for plowing snow and skidding firewood. You need a chainsaw for felling trees and cutting them up. You need a woodsplitter and a woodshed. You can no longer trust that there will be electricity in Sweden, the previous govenment destroyed the worlds best national electrical system. Next thing you need is 2 cars if one doesn't start, you can not live in the forest without transport. You will need a snowmobile or you will go crazy sitting inside all the time. You will need Elon's satellite internet.
    -22°C feels mosquito free, but your face will fall off, so stay where you are. I myself are sailing my boat to Portugal and I'm setteling there to drink wine and smoke doobies.
