How to heat a 24 foot deep SCUBA pool? | House Build #21

Finalizing the boilers and pool pumps to heat up the SCUBA pool! I explain all about the heat exchangers and how I've set up my house for on demand hot water anywhere at anytime! The house is finishing up nicely.

What's always amazing is seeing Mike's sweat equity going into his projects, he isn't just writing the checks ,he's working his butt off, not to mention all the work done planning it all out.

[@pete3pete]

If you want it done right , you have to do it yourself. Most of the time...

[@zteaxon7787]

​@@pete3peteOr find somebody like Mike Patey you can trust but nobody can afford those kinds of contractors.

[@georgedreisch2662]

To me at least, what’s standing out in this project, is the attention to detail and the consideration of the interrelationships of the various elements, for longevity, ease of maintenance and repair. What I appreciate most about your video’s, is your obvious multi dimensional thinking / looking through the layers of the onion.

[@origamihawk]

I've heard that you learn so much building a house that the first thing you want to do when your finish is start over. You can tell Mike has done stuff like this more than a few times.

[@ChandraSlyFoxPatey]

@@origamihawk We used to own a construction company. Mike became a GC when he was 18.

[@TomCraigRunamuk1]

Mike also puts the same quality when he builds an aircraft. Every one is a work of art. Back to work Mike

[@pinchflat]

Mike Patey the king of overbuilt. If you are going through the trouble of building it. Might as well over build it.

[@LiquidRetro]

And built it right from the beginning so the future maintenance and chance of problems down the road is minimized.

[@rocks-if6uh]

I hear you. But no I don't feel like I was lazy or anything, however if you include heavy d/sparks and I raise you one Cleetus McFarland then yes I would say I just don't know where all my time has gone or where I failed to utilize my life in more of a productive and positive way to accomplish more.

[@barrywallisable]

Such a shame you didn’t do a daily or bi-weekly vlog style of this entire build. I would have watched every single episode! Amazing work as ever Mike, I am always just left speechless at your level of engineering. Thanks so much for sharing!

[@muchmuchmore]

Content is great as usual. Whoever is editing these videos deserves serious credit as well. They appear to have Mike's same attention to detail. Keep up the great work.

[@OldAndGettingOlder]

Kudos to your video editor. I like how things are colorized highlighting what you're talking about. It makes things much easier to follow.

[@JimOHalloran]

6:36 "actually very simple and very redundant"... I'd expect nothing less from a Mike Patey build! Your attention to detail on all aspects of your house is amazing Mike, you're building a place that generations of your family can be proud of.

[@951Dwdrummer]

Do u build or clean pools

[@nottherealjk]

Mike, would you ever walk through some of the other details of the house? Air sealing in the main house, insulation details, HVAC/ERV/HRV/Ducting details, electrical in the house, High or low voltage, window details. I'm a geek for custom home build details. Love your plumbing/hot water walk through. It's more commercial than residential and I think that should be the way to go. Too many residential builds are done so cheaply.

[@portnuefflyer]

it's "more commercial", than most commercial buildings!

[@zachpw]

I also want to know what systems are automated and what is manually controlled.

[@JasonSpasoff]

@@portnuefflyer That's a fact.

[@Pedro5antos_]

This would be awesome!

[@amamdawhatever]

This channel is a master class in extreme over-engineering! My grandfather always said "anything worth doing is worth over-doing". I am a bit shocked that the sidewalks and steps were not built to be exactly 5 paver across to eliminate the cuts... I'm sure there was a reason that we don't know about, but having one cut paver would drive me insane.

[@AryaEbrahimi]

I'm glad I'm not the only one! I would have expected him to center the middle paver and make the layout symmetrical, but then I noticed that he made the 2 sets of stairs mirrored and my ocd calmed down a tick. 😂

[@markw9113]

Its been over a month since the last video. Your making me go into withdrawal. I have started rewatching old videos. Oh.. I see, that's the idea. The innovation still inspires me. Thanks.

It's quite a fail if you start taking in the energy wastage. He could've spent money on integrating solar water heaters+ geothermal+ heat pump also photovoltaic for electricity if space permits, air trap barrier to stop water body heat loss, rain water harvesting etc etc

[@DanielSell]

Oh man this pool came out as a true feat of engineering! Amazing!!!

[@dougmartin7272]

Even if your skimmer cage doesn’t get filled very often, always good to get the organic material out sooner rather than later. Less decomposition. Looks amazing!

[@Meyerwoodworks]

This house is legit! Incredible detail and no expense spared!

[@v12tommy]

I like the idea of the hot water taps outside. In my neck of the woods we have heated driveways when it snows. I always told my dad that if he repaved his driveway he should bury some Pex tubing in it so he has the option to heat it in the future. I plan to do the same when I build my house. I'm cheap, so I probably wouldn't even have a boiler hooked up to it at first, but in my dad's case, he lives at a lower elevation in Denver, and it only snows like 5 days a year. A warm water tap would work just fine. No need to shovel, just wait for a sunny day above freezing and wash all the snow away.

[@g2h0]

ill watch this man build anything

[@Cam_Wight]

Complete overkill in everything, but it's everything we'd all do in our dreams. Happy for you living the life you're living Mike, Back to work!

[@user-de8bu5es6f]

Mike, you got 2 up on me this time. Very well done. The instant (almost) hot water everywhere is great and having hot water at every cold outside tap, a great idea. I didnt predict either of those necesities. Thanks for the inspiration.

You’re a legit genius. This is the coolest home pool ever and I’m learning a lot watching these videos.

[@stupidasso6848]

Turbulence, Draco, Scrappy and a pool. However, no new aircraft build has been revealed. Mr. Patey comes off as a person that if isn't "Up to something." then they are definitely "Up to something.". Aircraft..... Water.... Master of both. I just bet the last two wheels off of my home , two propane tanks and a plastic flamingo that Mr. Patey is building a float plane to break a very old unbroken aviation record. Record breaking float plane.... Retractable pontoons and gear..... Incorporating Love, Faith, Energy and Hope into the build. Ive been wrong before.

[@lesfillin]

You are amazing, all of these intricate systems that you've integrated into your home! I really like the colorization of the items and areas when you are describing them to us.

You and your family certainly are hard workers. That pool piping system is way beyond my technical abilities to understand what, why or how it works. I guess these videos are a few months in arrears now. That house is just mind boggling. The amount of back ups you’ve built into this house is what should be expected from someone who is into aviation and there’s no room for error. I can’t wait for the time when this house is totally completed and hopefully we get a look n’ see the whole home. The build is way above and beyond anything I’ve ever seen. Back to work.👍👍🇨🇦

Mike, you are educational, inspiring and just plain entertaining. It is disappointing to me that a YT channel like yours does not have the level of subscribers you deserve - I know this is not why you do it and you are too humble to consider that point but man, when channels that showcase someone playing video games have 100M subs, it kinda makes me question our development as a species!! :)

[@L2FlyMN]

I love how you think things through before jumping into any project! Maintaining things is always necessary, so making that maintenance accessible is important. Elimination of potential issues ahead of time, saves a lot of headache down the road! My 93 Polaris snowmobile is just one example. Had to replace the recoil rope & the bottom bolt on the housing that had to be removed to access it, was inaccessible behind the frame. 😑😑😑😖 Also, most abandoned aquariums I’ve seen, have large amounts of calcium built up on the glass & simply got to be too much for most to keep on top of, getting out of hand, then that investment, simply abandoned. 😔
