  • The first four weeks of our new home build (includes laying in-floor radiant heat piping)! This is the first video in a series that will briefly cover the process of building our own home, from breaking ground to the finish. Consider it a collection of the main stages of building with emphasis on some of the challenges and what building your own home really looks like.
    We built our home over the winter, and it took us just under 4 months. Chris is a structural engineer and designer, and we designed the home ourselves. Chris was also our GC for the job.

    The heated floor looks pretty nice! This looks like it'll be a great video series.

    do you have the information on what products you used in your infloor radiant heat system like the yellow panels where did you get them and approximate price for those panels. I am getting ready to build us a new place and want to use the infloor radient heat but can't find suppliers for those insulated panels that allow you to snap in the PEX piping. Thank you

    Love it! The radiant heat flooring is my dream too if we ever build. The video was well worth the wait! :-)

    Here you are building a house, and we are doing the opposite! We built our house in 1996, and she goes up for sale either late this fall or early next spring. I am retired and my husband retires in a couple of months, and we are going FULL TIME RV! I will cry at the closing, I know...this is/was our dream house. However it is too big for us now, and we now have grandchildren in another state, so...we plan to travel full time for at least 2 years, then settle down in Colorado or somewhere not far from there, to be close to family. A new chapter begins!

      Since I just read your comment 3 years after you wrote it, I have to ask, how were your travels & adventures? Have you settled into a new home yet? I can’t help but ask because your goals sound very familiar. 😊

    Nice! Very interesting!!

    How many heating zones are you going to have? Probably all of those pipes are not going to be separate zones but rather parallel feeds off of a few manifolds. What was the insulation under the concrete? What are you going to use to heat the water/ethylene glycol pumped through the floors? Ok, I will stop asking questions and hope that answers will come in future videos.

    Why didn't y'all go with this pre-framing I've been hearing about. I guess they put all the walls and rafters together in a factory and then deliver them to the job site and then all they have to do is put the walls and rafters together on site? Or is that not as good as it sounds... From what they advertise it's cheaper and quicker than building everything on site... True or not true?
