When my fiance and I started dreaming about living off the grid the people I was with and I regularly saw ourselves doing all of the work. Then the two of us were going to build our own cottage, dig our own well, and lay our own piping. The two of us are both experienced in DIY service so the people I was with and I figured the people I was with and I could do it ourselves… Then of course, once things got started it wasn’t that self-explanatory! It turns out that building a cottage is a lot more task than it appears to be online! Still, the people I live with and I got it done and it only took us 3 years. The final thing was a heat source for the cottage. The two of us built a fireplace but the people I live with and I wanted something that would task all of the time and keep us warm. That is a necessity this far north. The two of us finally decided to get a propane boiler installed in the cottage. Of course, the people I live with and I knew the people I live with and I would need to hire a heating company for this section of the build. If propane boilers are not installed properly they can be dangerous. Thankfully, the people I live with and I found a reputable heating company and they offered us a sufficient price. It only took them a few afternoons to install the propane boiler and the radiators too. So now our cottage is completely built and the people I work with and I are ready to start our lives together. The two of us are not linked to any state-run items… No water, no power, no gas, or anything else at all. Our cottage is completely off the grid. I am undoubtedly happy that the people I live with and I were able to do this. The two of us get married in October and then move into the cottage. I think the people I live with and I will stay nice and sizzling with the fireplace and propane boiler.
