Hi Yami !! Soo happy to see this video come up. I was wandered when y'all would get water Goin 😊 such a happy. Momentous moment !!! A real shower baby ! Thats what i was screaming to my hubby when we built our home too. Thank you for sharing your family's beautiful life ❤️ 💕 cant wait for more ❤
I'm so excited for y'all! Your home is getting closer to being finished!👏❤️ When is your home scheduled to be ready to move in? I thank y'all so much for sharing your journey with us! I have learned so much from y'all! We're planning to move to Tennessee as well, and as I've mentioned before, it is so informative that y'all have shared everything with us! Stay, safe, healthy, and positive! GOD bless you and your family!🙏❤️🇺🇲😊
We have well water and a filtration system, too. We have iron in our water, so our system filters that out also….. We live close to a colonial iron furnace..we have lots red dirt and rocks, but great tasting water from a relatively shallow well 👍🏻👍🏻
I love my tankless hot water heater. I never run out of hot water. My husband did all that when we were building our house. We are on a concrete slab too. I lost my husband will be 5 years ago in April of this year. I am by myself now. Daughter is married and lives in Mississippi. I live in TN. I only live about 30 miles from her.
@TheLatinaNextDoor thank you. I appreciate you and your family. Family is everything. Love is very important to have. Thank you so much for sharing your journey with your family and new house. Love it. Helps me get ideas for my crafting that I do.
You guys are absolutely amazing Yami. I love how you worked everything out with your water running into the house. We have well water also it's because of the way the water tasted that we bought our house. Hope you and your family are staying safe and warm. See you in the next one 🤗💓💕💞
Water 🚿 is good. lol, yeah Nelson, thanks for the clarification of 💩. Better for it to run downhill than not😂! I’m am so happy that each video brings you all closer to getting to move in. Did you get any nasty weather this frigid go around? Holy moly, it’s been cold here. Our low tonight is 13degrees . We got a thick layer of powdered sugar but now the coast got more snow and so did mt grandson in Pensacola. They over 7”. Love you guys😊❤
We use to have well water it was the best tasting water I've ever drunk. But the well went out because of all the building around us so we just hooked up to utility water. 😁💕💕💕
I learn so much from watching your videos. What a journey! Can’t wait until your final touches with interior decorations. I can sure use some ideas. I use Pinterest most of the time and it never disappoints. God bless!🙏🏽
@TheLatinaNextDoor . A good water man can walk the land and then know where the best place to drill is. My dad had his own water business. He drilled and took care of water wells. FYI- Put mothballs in the pump house, right around your electrical and fuse box. It will keep the spiders and ants out of your fuses and contacts. My dad received tons of call that turned out to be a blown fuse due to ants getting into the fuse box.
I live in a city in Scotland, the water is soft and you can drink right from the tap .It's delicious. I've been in other places in the Uk ( England ) in hard water areas and it's awful . I didnt drink from the tap and bought bottled water . So i understand about how refreshing superior water taste.
Omg we lost our water pressure over 2 weeks and my husband was talking about getting well instead we do pay the town for water and they still can’t figure out why this happening 😢 wow I am gonna have him watch this when he gets time thank you guys for sharing 😊
Im sorry to hear that! Just know that with well water there is also the expense of your own water filtration system. We will eventually go over all of that once it’s installed.
That’s a bad situation. Unless you have power to the well, off grid no electricity no well water. I lived that way for fifteen years. When our electricity when off recently we had water because our water is a co-op well that runs on a diesel powered pump.
Helpful information for everyone looking to build! I appreciate your sharing these videos in case we ever decide to build! Reference videos are some of my favorites. 😊 looking forward to the next one! 🤍☺️
We had copper plumbing and we were gone during an unexpected very early freeze and our plumbing frozen and burst and filled pur home with an insane amount of water. Plumbing was all in attic space so major water damage throughout the home.
I’m sorry to hear that happened, I’m sure it was an awful experience. That can definitely happen. We have close to zero temps here and for that reason even our garage area where the water system will be housed will be insulated. In addition our copper pipes are only located inside interior walls.
😮Whoa! Aren’t you supposed to shut off your main water valve when you leave the house for an extended period of time? I learned that when I lived in FL now we’re in NC so we do that now.
My Grandfather’s house used well water for as long as I could remember. He died when I was 13, in 1969. Fast forward, my brothers had the land. The county/city, etc., finally forced ppl to somehow pay for water. But, one of my brothers knew how to bypass that bc of his fights w/ the city. Good Luck. But, put in back pocket, should a fight evolve. That was Indiana. Love your journey. Pets…..need a few cats. They are a joy & keep critters away or can alert you better than a dog.
Thank you for the information. This is pretty common practice around here especially since we have so much rock on our mountain. Running pipes through some areas can be a little difficult at times. There are several people on our road that have well water as well.
We have pretty harsh winters here. We were just down to 3 degrees earlier this week. We will take all precautions when we move in, however all our pipes are in interior walls so they will experience less cold overall. In addition, the garage is also insulated so the area where we keep the water system etc. will be more protected as well.
@ oh good I was worried about that since you said your power goes out a lot. My house in NH had a well and I wasn’t prepared and didn’t realize when the power goes out the pump stopped until I went to run the water. We had wood heat but no water!
Yami please, please make sure that your contractors dig the well until they reach bedrock , if they don't dig deply enogh you will get water full of debris, bacteria and minerals and you will have to spend a fortune in in filtering and water softening system, filters and filtering media, and sanitizing media. We knew nothing about all this and we bought a house with well water. The well isn't deep enough and even with all kinds of filtration systems our water is awful so we drink bottled water which is not much better
Hi Yami !! Soo happy to see this video come up. I was wandered when y'all would get water Goin 😊 such a happy. Momentous moment !!! A real shower baby ! Thats what i was screaming to my hubby when we built our home too. Thank you for sharing your family's beautiful life ❤️ 💕 cant wait for more ❤
I grow up in the country with well water 😊 thank you for sharing your adventures ❤
Very beautiful home god bless much love and prosperity 🇯🇲🇯🇲
I love home constructions. You guys are doing an amazing job with the house. Can't wait to see the rest of the process.
I'm so excited for y'all! Your home is getting closer to being finished!👏❤️ When is your home scheduled to be ready to move in? I thank y'all so much for sharing your journey with us!

Great.
You guys are awesome

A filtration system is a must and totally worth it.
I love my tankless hot water heater. I never run out of hot water. My husband did all that when we were building our house. We are on a concrete slab too. I lost my husband will be 5 years ago in April of this year. I am by myself now. Daughter is married and lives in Mississippi. I live in TN. I only live about 30 miles from her.
Im so very sorry for your loss. I’m glad your daughter lives fairly close to you 🙏🏼

The water definitely has a superior taste.

Yes, our temps made it to 2 degrees in some places on our mountain. It was crazy cold!
@@TheLatinaNextDoorwow, that’s brutal 🥶🥶🥶
That’s a huge progress. So happy for y’all, Latinos ❤
Thank you Gina!🥰
@ you’re welcome, Yami 🤗
I can't wait to see that huge shower 😁. Thanks for sharing with us! Blessings to you all ❤
Thank you! I can’t wait to get it done 🤣
You are both very adventurous! I love your journey so far, and can't wait for the next step in your story. God bless you and your family.❤
Thank you for being with us on this adventure! 🥰
Yay you have water, that’s a biggie👍✅ So happy for you two, things are moving along!💕💕💕
Yes!!!! One more step closer!!!
I so enjoy these videos!! Thank you!! I also love your fearless baby chihuahua❤!!
Thank you for always supporting us 🥰
It’s coming along 🌹🌹🌹
We use to have well water it was the best tasting water I've ever drunk. But the well went out because of all the building around us so we just hooked up to utility water. 😁💕💕💕
It definitely has a much better flavor.
Exciting things are happening for y'all and I'm happy to witness it. Y'all are a blessing to watch.
Thank you for sticking along with us through everything 🥰
I learn so much from watching your videos. What a journey! Can’t wait until your final touches with interior decorations. I can sure use some ideas. I use Pinterest most of the time and it never disappoints. God bless!🙏🏽
We will definitely be sharing lots of interior decorating ideas, I know you will love them! 😉
We have a well. Never had issues.
Our previous home had a well and we loved it!

Thanks for the tip!
Yami and Nelson, I am really enjoying these videos. I get so excited every time you guys post updates on the house.
Thank you Maria! We are so happy you have been with us throughout our entire journey.
We have a 40 gallon tank. At our camp we have a 30 gallon tank.
I live in a city in Scotland, the water is soft and you can drink right from the tap .It's delicious. I've been in other places in the Uk ( England ) in hard water areas and it's awful . I didnt drink from the tap and bought bottled water . So i understand about how refreshing superior water taste.
That’s so great you have wonderful tap water. Unfortunately here in the states, that’s never the case.
Exciting... It's moving quickly. How is your dog that got hurt.
Omg we lost our water pressure over 2 weeks and my husband was talking about getting well instead we do pay the town for water and they still can’t figure out why this happening 😢 wow I am gonna have him watch this when he gets time thank you guys for sharing 😊

@@lechatbotte. Good Question, I will go over that on the Electrical video!
@ I can’t wait to see that.
This house is going to be amazing!
Helpful information for everyone looking to build! I appreciate your sharing these videos in case we ever decide to build! Reference videos are some of my favorites. 😊 looking forward to the next one! 🤍☺️
Thank you so much! I know these videos aren't for everyone, but if they are helpful to some, that is all that matters.
What kind of water filtration system are you going to install? I love our well water.
We will be using one similar to the last one we had. We will be sharing it once it's installed.
How is the puppy that you had to take to the university?
She's doing great!
We had copper plumbing and we were gone during an unexpected very early freeze and our plumbing frozen and burst and filled pur home with an insane amount of water. Plumbing was all in attic space so major water damage throughout the home.

@Ivelisse529 my hubby forgot to turn the water off. 🫤

Looking good, plus I'm learning alot from ya'll. In Texas we had to cover our pipes when a freeze came in, will ya'll have to be that
We have pretty harsh winters here. We were just down to 3 degrees earlier this week. We will take all precautions when we move in, however all our pipes are in interior walls so they will experience less cold overall. In addition, the garage is also insulated so the area where we keep the water system etc. will be more protected as well.
Lot of work for sure
Well water is so much better than municipal or city water in my opinion.
Agreed!
❤❤
Wow it seems everyone is having water problems. Since the 20th of November we have had very low pressure to no water. So frustrating.
Oh wow! I am sorry you are experiencing that.
What kind of filters are you using? We have well water it's horrible 😂
We will be using a similar water filtration system that we had in the last home we were in. We will share more about it once it’s installed.
Please insulate around your plumbing pipes from upstairs to downstairs so you don't hear the flushing and the water coming out of the toilet! 😂
Yes, we have interior soundproofing throughout some of the walls.
You need to remember that your pump runs on electricity and if the power goes out no water!
Yep! We understand that. Which is why my husband has a plan with a backup generator already set in case that does happen.
@ oh good I was worried about that since you said your power goes out a lot. My house in NH had a well and I wasn’t prepared and didn’t realize when the power goes out the pump stopped until I went to run the water. We had wood heat but no water!
Hopefully the rest is smooth 😂
So far so good 🙏🏼
Yami please, please make sure that your contractors dig the well until they reach bedrock , if they don't dig deply enogh you will get water full of debris, bacteria and minerals and you will have to spend a fortune in in filtering and water softening system, filters and filtering media, and sanitizing media.

The well isn't deep enough and even with all kinds of filtration systems our water is awful so we drink bottled water which is not much better
Sandstone was at 18inches and bedrock was at about 20 feet and they drilled to 200 feet so hopefully we should be good.
😊
