Things are Getting Expensive || Cabin Update

[@yodaiam1000]

As a structural engineer, I see this all the time. A renovation will always have surprises and will always grow. It is one of the fundamental laws of renovations. But don't worry, what you lose in money, we gain in entertainment. Just know that you are not alone.😀

[@steverobbins4872]

If you're going to replace both the heater and the AC then put in a heat pump system instead. I heard Oregon offers great incentives, up to $4000.

[@jebinite]

There are pretty solid reasons for installing a heat pump with gas backup heat. The efficiency of a heat pump drops off significantly in cold temps like he will encounter in Bend, OR.

[@mountainsspeak1508]

@@jebinite New heat pumps are efficient down to -10. He should be fine without the gas backup. Installed one here in CO in the mountains and don't need the gas backup. Lots of old information out there about their efficiency. Lots of installers trying to make the big $$$ on dual fuel systems based on the old data.

As you're anticipating having families with kids there to fill the bunk room, consider a bathtub in one of the bathrooms instead of all showers. That reminds me - the primary bath probably had a hall doorway because it was the one set up for a wheelchair user with grab rails and room to maneuver and the 2nd doorway made it easier to get to.

Put in a built-in bookshelf next to the slider. That way it hides that it’s a weird wall and makes use of the extra space. 😉

That looks like a thin exterior wall. Why not lose the space but add insulation?

I'll say that I do love our 4-foot hallways in our current home, built in 1966, when Captain Kirk first flew thru space. With our wooden floors we sometimes use it as a bowling lane for the kids toy bowling set. LOL It's cool to see this progress and problem solving. Thanks for sharing!

[@LadyReallyLady]

Same Kevin. Meanwhile, I know from big family that has properties in many different states (*and ALL uncles/aunts/cousins have 2nd 'escapes' like this) = every state has different code. Also, look at Texas - can do just about anything, almost no code.

[@larryg3038]

Thanks for the update. Looking forward to future videos of this project. Since you are redoing the loft and installing new stairs, I would highly recommend you relocate the stairs to one of the interior areas away from the entryway and open up the constricted pinch point entryway. Instead of one long run of open stairs, consider a half flight to a landing then another half flight of stairs turned back on itself to the second floor. The footprint is much more compact.

[@OFFTH3topic]

Yea same thing happened to me. Got all the way to hard wood flooring half installed during a full reno to find out I needed 12 footers, 6 sheer walls, and 2 strong walls. Atleast the house won’t shake down now.

[@Bunk599]

Looks like a great place to park the Airstream until the cabin work is completed. Your title insurance company should have checked for open permits before final settlement...at least they do in other parts of the country. Yes as others have commented, you are quite upbeat in a video with a bunch of bad news. I am sure you will make it perfect in the end.

[@rashkavar]

This is in Oregon, right? You can definitely just install a heat pump instead of a furnace and air conditioner. You get a massive energy efficiency boost over a furnace (furnaces have to burn 100% of the fuel needed to create their heat, a heat pump already has a source of heat and uses maybe a quarter as much energy in concentrating it and bringing it to where you want it. A heat pump is the exact same thing as an air conditioner, except it has a switch that makes it run the other way around (air conditioners pull heat out of the air inside and put it outside, a heat pump in heating mode pulls heat out of the air outside and puts it inside. And yes, there is a TON of heat in air even when it's below freezing - there's still plenty of heat energy there keeping the air nice and gaseous. Early designs had major efficiency dropoffs, but my family's been using one up here in British Columbia, Canada for 30 years now without a problem. These days they're even putting them in up in the Territories which are up in the same kind of latitude as the main body of Alaska. I'd have stuck with the existing furnace and air conditioner setup if you were keeping the old hardware - the efficiency boon is not worth the cost of getting the old hardware ripped out, but it's a huge waste to take a major renovation like this and go and install what's functionally the same archaic system it had when it was built.

[@evictioncarpentry2628]

You can't get house insurance in Canada with a heat pump unless you have a secondary heat source. They don't work during winter in the prairies. Oregon might be different but heat pumps aren't some miracle.

[@m_cabral]

Central heat pumps have several auxiliary heat options. The most common if you replace a traditional AC is to use the old furnace as auxiliary heat. The controller board will have a thermostat wire for aux heat and a wire to trigger the furnace. My basement heat pump has resistive coil strips that run about twice per year and are much cheaper to install than a gas furnace. The entire installation is half the size of the similarly sized furnace/AC unit in my attic. If you get a cold weather kit for your heat pump it’ll run colder (usually as a trade off in terms of warm weather performance, so not good for the American South) or if you buy a higher quality inverter heat pump it’ll probably run well enough in the cold that your heat strips will just sit there doing nothing except making you insurance compliant and adding to your electrical panel’s load calculation.

[@kitame6991]

@@evictioncarpentry2628 theres a fireplace, does that happen count? i'm curious how these are even considered.

[@rashkavar]

@@evictioncarpentry2628 Bullshit. My parents house has no secondary heat source. It works just fine if you're not in the middle of the fucking icefields.

[@FieroFats]

I'd bet that they 'weren't up to code' since they were original to the house.

[@fancytableshoes]

You get a lot of snow up there in the Pacific NW, but winter temps are mild enough that a modern heat pump can take care of heating and cooling. Just put mini-splits (ducted or not) where you need em. Maybe repurpose that furnace space for a battery backup?

[@carstenlechte]

I immediately thought that, too. At least make the heat pump work as cooler and heater.

[@stephiluttrell3416]

A dozen years ago I was looking at a house. I knew it had at least 2 additions on it. So I went to the city and looked at the permits on file for the house to make sure the work was permitted as I knew there could be issues if it wasn't.

[@novampires223]

Remodeling is a long slow process with many surprises but! You can go at your pocket books speed, change your mind about layout as you spend time in the space and in the end will have a story to tell. New houses have no history or character.😊

@Bourbon Moth Woodworking, if you do the paver method. Try consider the Soda trick. Basically, sugar-water or soda causes the concrete to harden with a rough surface. Which MEANS, that you can do custom patterns to get some smooth harden and rough harden.

House is gonna be beautiful. one little comment... i see the forest coming right up to the house. i highly suggest 50 to a hundred feet of "defensible space" for fire. there's going to be more and more fires in eastern Oregon if the trends continue. also to protect from wind blown trees falling on the house!

[@JDderd]

Especially considering he lost his river house to forest fire. I imagine he’s got a plan for that.

[@johannes.f.r.]

While I agree that it would be the safe thing to do, it couldn't be called the cabin in the woods anymore then. You can see in the video that the neighbors are really close by. If they all did that, there wouldn't be any trees between the houses.

Black butte might have regulations on what you can and can’t remove. That part of Oregon does a really good job of forest fire prevention. They actually clear out a lot of underbrush to save the big trees. Not to say it can’t or won’t happen. But it’s way better than most of Oregon.

If you want rustic with the glu-lam beams, wrap them to look like exposed timber. You could even epoxy on some "hardware" to really sell it.

I didn't know one could close on a house that didn't have a "certificate of occupancy". Seems that would have been identified by the title insurance review. One suggestion is to have two shower heads put in the large master bath. We have this and love it even though we only shower together once or twice a week. Your contractor has lots of work to do without a good foundation, I expect you will learn there are more issues, just hard to identify prior to getting it done. Good luck.

[@grantmuhonen5337]

If the original owners built the house with their own money then they could just move in, and do what they want. A big reason why people need a certificate of occupancy is so they can refinance their construction loan to a regular home mortgage. I think people should be able to build how they want, but should be required to be very transparent about how it was built.
