    Great idea of using transparent panels to take advantage of natural light, that hot tub looks so good.

    Hi you two
    You may not have all the t's crossed and the I's dotted. But you have a piece of paradise that's awesome.
    Good idea doing the gable in clear plastic.
    I'm not one to flip on a light every time I walk into a room
    If there's enough light coming through the window and it's enough for me to see what I'm doing. No flipping the switch.
    I'm glad you've got a system for getting your water moved around.
    Sorry Jen
    I had to laugh when you were trying to get a good shot of Jay and the chainsaw and you got covered in sawdust 😂
    As always another enjoyable video.
    Stay safe
    Hope you get everything done that's needed before winter.
    We've finally dropped to the 70's here in northeast Missouri

  • @lorettaandjasonoffgrid
    @lorettaandjasonoffgrid Год назад +1

    Nice with the clear poly! We used that stuff on the roof of one of our outhouses. Daytime light with a solar powered light for nighttime. Perfect! We'll see how it works in the winter though! lol!

    • @OffgridwithJayandJen
      @OffgridwithJayandJen  Год назад +1

      Cool.....I know many have used it like you on the roofs and had good luck with it.....I would make the roof a little slanted though so the snow slides off. Lol

    • @lorettaandjasonoffgrid
      @lorettaandjasonoffgrid Год назад +1

      Yeah, it's got a bit of a slant but not sure it will keep the snow off! We'll have to keep on top of it. :)

    Love your video's on the hot tub sounds like you and Jen have it all figured out. Oh and your getting much better on the ladders .sounds like you have a lot of fun builds coming up. Outdoor showers are awesome just the smell of being outdoors is good enough for me. Can't wait to see more stuff.

    The clear poly is a great idea. As well as the extra light and keeping rain out it will be great in winter when you get one of those swirling snow storms!

    When we started, that's exactly what we did with our water with the notable exception that it was before IBC tanks existed... oh, we also used 12v pumps and gravity for everything, i liked them because they were completely interchangeable which worked the best at the time, if one system failed, i could borrow one from another system but mostly because we only had 12v. Anyway, your barn is great, it is collecting water and keeping your stuff dry as intended

    I had an idea that you could put plastic tubing in the raised areas of your pole barn roof and pump warm air through it from a wood stove heat exchanger and a fan to melt the snow for a water source.

    The covers on the tanks will hold in the heat if u electric blanket the tanks. Not a bed blanket. An engine blanket. On really cold nights u should blanket the truck engine as well.

  • @joebiz1850
    @joebiz1850 Год назад

    Since u have the solar power, u could always get an electric engine block warmer that's pretty weatherproof and keep ur water tanks from freezing. I know ur tight with the bucks, but, these should b pretty cheap. Something to look into.

    Salt water hot tubs are gaining in popularity for several reasons, but I think they have to have a different system than chlorine.

    • @OffgridwithJayandJen
      @OffgridwithJayandJen  Год назад +1

      They are more poplar than before, but salt water pools and hot tubs are not not as they seem. They actually use a generator to convert the salt you put into the water into a regulated amount of chlorine.....so the water is not actually salty like you would imagine it being....like the ocean. It simply uses salt to make chlorine to sanitize and kill bacteria. On top of that the generator to do so is quite expensive. 😊

    • @OffgridwithJayandJen
      @OffgridwithJayandJen  Год назад

      I get 15-20 degrees an hour with this on demand heater. The tub only holds 200 gallons of water so that helps it heat quickly. We turn it on at dinner time and it is ready by dark a couple hours later.....no tending to a fire required.

      Part time right now. Month or 2 at a time. Next year we're going for 6 months. We have an inflatable hot tub we're bringing with us and we're going to heat it with a on demand as well. Thanks for the info.

    • @OffgridwithJayandJen
      @OffgridwithJayandJen  Год назад +1

      @razor1sharp awsome.....should work great....just make sure the pipes and fittings can handle the heat of the water and you should be good. I know I plumbed all mine in pex line, the heated water entering the tub is HOT....but works very well. 😊
