Water SystemThere is a artesian well (6 inch bore hole) in the far corner. At the bottom of the well is a submerged Franklin pump. The water is drawn into the 1750 liter underground water tank via a electronic solenoid. The pump on top of the water tank is a Mitsubishi 155 automatic water tank, which turns on when a tap is open in the system. Artesian wells are the best option for this area because they supply more and cleaner water than other solutions. The exterior wall is attractively rendered with premix die pigment, for a natural paint free surface and 'home made' feel.dozerSep 27, 2011

Floor Structure with Damp CourseThe floor rebar is spaced at 20 centimeter intervals and red bricks are used as spacers. The damp course material is a heavy thick black plastic which is hard to find. It is more durable and resistant to tearing. The normal clear plastic is problematic and should be avoided. Of course, any damp course is better than no damp course!dozer
