Utilities

I have set a 45 kw back-up generator on a cement pad located about 75 feet from the house. Two 1000 gallon propane tanks will be burried in the hole in front of the generator. If you look close you can see a gas line (yellow) run in a grey conduit.

The gas line will be connected to a pipe on the left of the garage entry.

These wires will connect a remote solar system to the house.

Solar panels will be set on 40 foot poles, at this location, with 'trackers' to maximize the solar output.

Water System

These three storage tanks (5100 gallons) will be set up the hill to provide water pressure for the house.

I have been doing a lot of trenching. This 5-6 foot deep trench contains a water line to the tanks and one to circulate water to the waterfall.

This is where the water tanks will be set (at the top of the property).

If you look close you can see the house in the left-center portion of this picture. I am standing at the location where the water storage tanks will be set.

Back Deck for Stone

The back side deck beams are now installed.

We are now ready for the stone work to begin. The tar paper shown is covered with wire in preparation for stone.
