We ONLY have 3 days...OFF-GRID Tiny Home Camper Renovations

It's getting cold and we are ALMOST ready to move into our renovated off-grid tiny home....but we don't have heat. This week we tackle a few remaining projects to get the camper move-in ready. This space is going to be a game changer for us here on the homestead! We celebrate our near milestone with a homemade pizza night cooked on our wood and gas Empava pizza oven.

    I make every effort to let the advertisements run (to support the channel). Do not know how many slots (?) you allowed (I jumped around on this one), but this is the first time I've encountered three ads in one slot anywhere. The view count doesn't produce a lot of income, so consider reconsidering. Good style. Sorry your "not on wheels' place had that loophole. Hindsight of rules was to protect the professional carpenters? Edit; in PA (and nj), if there is no foundation, it is not taxable like a regular house, or perhaps not at all.

    The best window insulation covers I’ve made are: Reflectix (outside layer)/polycarbonate sheets (air flow layer/fleece. Spray glue together. Attach to window frame on the inside with 3M double sided stick Velcro. The fleece is inside in a decorative color that matches your vibe. I have bright yellow. I also use the polycarbonate sheets elsewhere for insulation, under bed, wall areas that are leaky. Also, insulation board, or at least plastic, around the undersides will make a huge difference. I’m going to do the diesel heater as you showed. I didn’t know about the moisture improvement over propane. Thanks.

    Just so you know, the original propane forced air heaters do not emit more moisture in the camper. If you have a wall blue flame heater then yes a lot of moisture will develop. If you have a propane forced heater the moisture goes out the exhaust . As for which is more fuel efficient, diesel stinks!

    I am glad you stayed on your homestead and finally brainstormed in buying your RV trailer. On building your new home, please use pressure treated lumber for the foundation joist and flooring. Also, do use pressure treated wood as the bottom base plate for all your walls. By doing so, you will have eliminated the potential threats of water damages and termite infestation. Now, how small or large you want your new home to be is totally up to you. What I can share with you is to focus on building a simple 400 square foot cabin. It will be cheaper to buld on a budget. With basic carpentry skills, you have your home built within 6 months to a year. Plus, you can easily build additional rooms adjacent to your existing walls. Since there are two of you working together, the process shall be at twice the labor building tempo. So expect to have your cabin up sooner rather than later. Best wishes!

Gravity feed water for dishes, washing etc. We do have propane lights and a stove and fridge that runs on propane. We fire up the fridge only in the hot summer when staying over a week.

    My camper also had a heated "under belly" to protect the water tanks. The manufacturer just stubbed out a piece of ducting into the underbelly with no cover to keep mice out. Mice got in. In the spring snakes went looking for mice. Snakes got in! I thought I was going to have to sell the camper to get my my back in it. Since we are no longer full time camping, I cut the ducting going to the underbelly and sealed the hole. No mice and no snakes. You live in the woods! they will find a way!

    You could always take some metal and go around the bottom and seal the bottom in. Put your little door to get to the heater. So you'll mold, you know where the heater is. And also you'll be able to open the door work on the heater. Fill it up with diesel and all that, but you need to take a engine a 1/2 phone. And screw to the inside of the metal, then put it up as a underpinning around the bottom of the trailer. And then you'll have a warm trailer underneath and inside and you won't have to worry about the water lines for using

    Be sure to plumb a return duct to the air heater it will heat faster and be more efficient..

    When it starts raining good please let us know how the seal job went. I teach people how to restore old trailers on line and everything you did on the roof is exactly what I teach people NOT to do. Goop and sealant is only a temporary fix. To fix it right and permanently you just need to know how the metal skin system on a trailer works and then you can address the leaks properly and fix them permanently without any goop at all. But most people who are unknowledgeable about these things just resort to tons of goop.

    Smart man! Keep her happy, took me a while to learn that when she ain't happy, ain't nobody happy... Windows are an easy seal, the roof might get more involved because the water will travel out of sight. Fortunate that you had a couch sized window... I suspect you will need a second heater, for adequate circulation if nothing else. If the original heater fan was working, maybe not. We live west of Nashville, and we get a few near zero nights most winters, so you likely will also. A small wood heater might be a good idea. We will be headed to Knoxville for the week after Christmas, but don't know if we like NY style pizza. FYI, Memphis BBQ pizza is excellent... 😎
