Finally...

[@OldPumpMan]

Crazy to me how far mobile homes have come 2x6 & 2x8 walls with lots of insulation. When my wife & I got married in the mid 90's we rebuilt a 1978 mobile home on our small family farm that was new when my uncle lived there. It was the old 2x2 & 2x4 walls & so cold in the winter & hot in the summer; but we were happy just to be married & living together. Almost 30 years later living in her great-grandmas homestead house, still happy to be together; but now we're older & really happy not to be so cold in the winter😀.

[@broc212]

I grew up in a 1978 with my dad and hated that thing with a burning passion "Candominium" You could hear a squirrel pee outside. Now I run a sales center. They are not even the same home from 2006. It is insane how how far they come and how they are building offices out of them now.

[@allanrobson7242]

Congratulations, Mike, with your new house, and I hope it soon becomes a very happy home. GooLuck.

[@EvanC8]

That’s a nice looking pre built home. That truck driver is definitely a good driver.

[@n3qdz]

May that building transported, put on piers, hooked up to services and finished; be filled with love, family and warmth. that building is then transformed from a structor to a loving home! May you and your family make memories, love abundantly and prosper! My God Bless and keep all who enter in this home I pray Amen! Congratulations much love my man!

[@oscillation_boscillations_9644]

I leave for a couple weeks, come back and Mike has a house on a trailer lmao. Congrats, hope you and your family enjoy it to the fullest.

[@garyzimmerman6316]

Mike, i ran on a modular set crew for 14 years. (East coast US) The height and width that the roads can handle up there is amazing!

[@sneakprev1984]

Damn... That's a nice Peterbilt! Congrats on that new house!

[@johnjackson8561]

Couple of things I noticed as a builder and renovator, I would paint the OSB underneath with some tremclad so it doesn't deteriorate and don't get an RO water system it leaves it with zero minerals and eats away at anything that isn't stainless or nylon. Just saying. 😎👍🍻

[@TheDuckofDoom.]

RO water can be passed though a few food grade limestone chips to restore some hardness (Works best if followed by a buffer tank of 10-20 gallons so the bit of water that sits on the lime overnight is mixed with water that only had brief contact.). Or where the reason is just because of excessively hard water, mix the RO with straight well water to get half hard water, this also reduces cuts the RO demand in half.

[@Freefarmer533]

Exciting to see the house land! Put your well house over the well so u don't need to horse around with pitless adaptors, just make sure the well is in line with the door so u can pull pump years down the road.

[@wssides]

Does that plan go well with a reverse osmosis system in the well house?

[@Freefarmer533]

@wssides yes would work well, just trench out a drain flush line to a buried barrel with a bit of drain tile to handle the system flush.

[@bradtevelde6025]

Thanks for the video Mike, I enjoy every one.

[@celticrider06]

I may have missed the house thing. The last talk of houses was accommodation for workers. So is Mike planning on making the North farm his home base and South farm is going to be what the North farm is now. Not quite understanding his future plans, or maybe we aren’t privy to those. Awesome to see him expanding on his own however.

[@darkrevenger04]

It is probably for workers and himself.

[@cookiejar6081]

there's 5 farms with 5 diff owners in one yard down south and the north is just mikes farm with ashtons family close , so the north will just be mike's guys and himself

[@John-nc4bl]

Thats a moving experience-😊 Mike, I like your idea for the 'foundation'.

[@thilokm522]

Thanks for the update! Always so much going on at your operation, it's mindblowing

[@stevenatkinson2393]

Nice to see you have a spare room for me when I move from Australia to Canada and come work for you. Lol I wish 🤞

[@rosemarymurphy5767]

I live in a modular called a Dutch Home a two half’s house trailer put together and setting on cement blocks with cement base the blocks set on . We put cement blocks around the house to cover the undersides. Then added a big patio porch in front on one side have length size porch . Have three steps one at the end of porch and middle of porch and one on the other side of porch. Two steps our equal with the doors that third steps on the end of half size porch.

[@AmishHitman73.Archive]

a lot has changed in your life since i last watched you a year ago, i have a house now and dont seem to have the time i did when i rented, hope you and yours are well!

[@TheKostasLab]

First time seeing that whole house can be transported 😄

[@Ole_CornPop]

Never seen mobile homes?

[@Northern_Farmer]

​@@Ole_CornPopthey actually build full size homes and truck them out these days

[@wssides]

@@Northern_Farmer The house I live in was put in place 50 years ago. Built 800 km away and trucked in in two pieces Lifted on to a hillside foundation with a crane. About 20 of them came into this city with the expansion of a coal mine. Seems to me even more went in to Thompson Mb even earlier and have since been moved out.

[@Rob-rk8jw]

What is with Drinkingwater in and sewage out? The space between the ground and house has much cold air in Saskatchewan to freeze the pipe. In Germany the Waterpipe comes in 80-100cm under the ground in the house. Mike, as a father to i wish you the best times of your life in your home! Family is the Thing we live for. English is not my Motherslang so excuse for mistakes

[@markzurowski3627]

In Saskatchewan, most underground piping is minimum 1800mm below ground. If it is shallower, it has to be insulated.

[@notpoliticallycorrect4774]

The skirting will enclose and insulate the underside of the house to the ground. Water lines in Saskatchewan are run 6 feet (2 meters) under ground, as to keep them out of the winter frost line. Mike will likely show this in following videos.

[@Rob-rk8jw]

@@notpoliticallycorrect4774 Thank you for your answer. Yes i think Mike will show it in the next Videos. Im a bit interested in Farming and like to watch Mikes Videos. I can understand him most of the time if it is not to technical. So i have a short english lesson 20 years after school. If people speak to fast or with accent im out.

[@Rob-rk8jw]

@@markzurowski3627 Thank you for your answer

[@wssides]

@@notpoliticallycorrect4774 Plus the water line under in the crawl space will be wrapped with thermostat controlled electric heat tape. I think minimum 8 feet under ground under driveways.

[@dennislamers986]

I'm from Wisconsin and basements are a positive for men. Great looking place Mike and interesting how they set it. I'm thinking around here they have slab to sit on.

[@markzurowski3627]

The pile foundation will be far more stable than sitting on grade. The ground clay (which is common in Saskatchewan) will heave and contract with different levels of hydration and frost heave . Piles are installed to below frost levels to mitigate the ground movement.

[@jackcalder7148]

We got one last year in November and they had the house set up in 1 day , we were living in our camper at the time

Congratulations nice house. At least they use a trailer to haul it on and not leave the hitch, tires and axles under the trailer after they are done to rot like they do here in Nevada

Seems like they would staple a double layer of cardboard over the forward windows just as a precaution against rocks (and birds and such).

[@Northern_Farmer]

Id rather have a basement...they are built properly now a days...i like to be able to access plumbing...having the heating and pumps in the basement is way better

[@aahZeiK]

Yea basements are a lot better that’s why everyone puts them in as long as you don’t build on low ground they don’t give problems $$ was probably the deciding factor for him

[@chadtosh6831]

When we built on this hill it was the same money to put in pilings or to put in a basement, so we went the basement route with a walkout door for a farm entrance.

[@joescheller6680]

Basements are a no no in my area unless you have flood insurance. They are nice but not good in a lot of areas.

[@gilb6982]

You should install the pump house the nearest possible from the house because the water under pressure is easier to freeze !

[@christofferraa935]

It is actually the opposite, as when water freezes it expands thus will the increase in pressure oppose this expansion. This difference is negligent on the low pressure in house plumbing though.
