Default Re: 20'-10'-20' Connected Family Yurt

Thanks! We had a great time with this project it was a big one for us

Here is the first time I've connected yurts with this gabled roof design. It's given me some new ideas. From now on, I'd like to see a gabled roof entranceway as a feature on all of my yurts to keep

moisture

away from the threshold. The gabled roof also makes effective sluice-ways to easily catch your rainwater.

One 20 foot yurt is for Mom & Dad's bedroom and the kitchen. Then a walk through the 10 foot bathroom yurt brings you to the kid's yurt.

Each 20' yurt has it's own heater and solar panels to charge batteries which power wall switches for 12 Volt lights, circulation fans, & water pump (from rainwater catchment).

The family also invested in a substantial solar water

heating

system which was installed by an engineer whilst we were raising the yurts. The circulation pump for this water

heating

system is a 12V marine pump powered by the solar panels on the yurts.
