After watching endless tiny house videos, KZbin presented me with yours. Your house is gorgeous and your talks are so helpful that I’m sure I will have watched all your videos by the time I realize my own tiny home dream about a year from now. I am 77 and I want to spend my remaining years in a tiny home of my dreams, not in an assisted living type nightmare of a condo. In my other dream, my husband (80), inspired by my tiny home, will design and build his own. His home will be parked on the other side of the covered courtyard that our tinies share.

I’m wanting a tiny house so badly . I’m 64 I have some limitations cause I’m on oxygen sometimes but I can still do a lot too. My problem my sons don’t think I should live in one ! But they haven’t been studying them for 5 years either. They would have me in assisted living but that would cost way more. Even trying to sell them on an RV in a warmer climate they want me to rent. I want my own home. Your build is perfect almost lol.love the close up stairs

I have found that a string or two of Christmas lights are a valuable asset when it comes to knowing if you have tripped a breaker that powers heat cables. Living in Central NY with brutal winters at times it can save you a headache. Living in a manufactured home for almost 25 years you learn a trick or two.

Hi Gary, absolutely. I think the key is to build for a cold climate. Making sure your insulation and heating choices are sufficient for where you plan to live. I think it’s also key to have the underneath of the trailer sheathed in and to do a good job of skirting.

Hi! Love your videos! It’s great to see a Canadian woman doing this! I have been following tiny houses for years and keep a collection of designs I love - yours is one of them. I am now in a town house (alone) and really find that it is too big for me. But there are very few trailer parks here in Quebec and only a couple of municipalities up north that have made tiny house developments legal. Anyways, you are an inspiration!

Your explanation of the Christmas lighting issue leads me to believe the 3 plugs outside are wired to one circuit. Outside plugs only need to have one plug on the circuit set up with the ground fault if all tied together. This is very common, maybe even code in some areas. When you said everything outside was out, and came back on when you reset the ground fault interrupt on the one plug was the tell tale for my theory. That being the case, the reason for breaker tripping was overload on the circuit. The length of the extension cord, plus the quality, may have led to more resistance, causing more draw than you would expect. Plus the heat tape on the lines would probably be a few amps. (I have never used it, so I don't really know, but anything providing heat draws more power) To check, you could get an electrician to test the circuit with an meter to see if the circuit is dead when it is turned off. One thing you could do is get as short of extension cord as you need, but get a good one rated for cold weather. (This would be bigger in size, which would give more copper in the cord, thus reducing power loss for resistance. The other, is maybe have an electrician put it on a dedicated circuit as it should have been. The red herring in doing that may be only having a 50 amp service. It sounds like the perfect storm scenario. Really cold, Christmas lights and heat tape all at once. That may be why it only has happened once, and may only require turning off the lights outside at night when it is really cold. I have built a couple tiny homes, (no way near what you have, but on used trailer, and off grid) Yours is gorgeous. My god son lives in Stettler, so next time I'm out there I'm going to check out your builder. My wife and I have both retired now, and our house and lot are way too big. We also need a fifth wheel as mobility may be an issue for me in the future. And a second loft would be a great spot for a paint studio for her. I would prefer a 10 wide rather than 8.6.

Hi! I'm an electrician and just wanted to add my two cents. If you aren't overloading the circuit, the easiest fix would be to replace the GFCI with one that has an audible alarm. Leviton brand sells one for around $24 (US dollars) at HomeDepot. If the circuit popped you would most likely be able to hear it from inside your awesome tiny! 🙂

My experience has been (not a tiny home, just medium to big homes) that if the grid electrical supply "wobbles" so it's up & down multiple times within a scant few minutes, any circuit close to its capacity will turn off. I'm in the U.S. so your mileage may vary.

I know what week you're talking about. We only got down to -5F. I have heat tape on my mobile too but anytime the temp is gonna be single digit or lower I always leave water run in a very rapid drip or thin stream. Think this is gonna be one for the record books. Are you allowed to have a mini wood stove? I've got a big one and it's a comfort in case we have an electrical outage. Stay warm, be safe. And I totally get the love/hate thing about winter! 😆

Thanks Wanda. Yes, I’ll be leaving a tap trickling if we have another cold spell like that this winter!

You could get a pop up type shelter for car. At least the snow would not get on it if roof strong enough !

It’s because I’m up on a hill and we get strong winds. You can get a hard top shelter but the posts need to be cemented in. I guess there had a few get airborne in the past.

Hello from just outside of Winnipeg 👋 Just want to say that I love love love your home 🏡 I’m a single mom of 2 teens and am starting to think of what I’d like down the road for myself and am drawn to minimalism and tiny houses. I would love to find a design very similar to yours but for someone who is 6’ tall 🤷🏻‍♀️

can you put a car port or some call them car canopies? Basically a tent for your car with a metal roof and 4 feet to park it under so that snow or hail doesn't get it. You can then put those covers on the windows and just pull them off when you get ready to drive. Just asking.. I don't live in a wintery area.

Hi. The park will only allow hard top structures that are bolted/cemented down. This is my last winter here so I’ve decided to not spend the money on it for now.

This is not an electrical thing, we have self-draining outside faucets. You only have to be sure to not have a hose connected. Also, inside we have a tiny trickle of water flowing in one of the sinks.
