Re: Beginner considering Yurt living
If you do decide to use battery+solar power, consider 12v water pumps. I have two of these at my yurt camp. One to fill the tub, the other to do dishes with in the camp:
Amazon.com: Eccotemp 03526-14A Flojet 2.9 GPM 50 PSI Water Pump: Automotive
That pump works great and gives plenty of PSI. I also heat water with a couple of these:
Eccotemp L5 Portable Tankless Water Heater and Outdoor Shower - Portable Hot Water Heater - Amazon.com
I have a stream near my yurt where I can use a sump pump and fill up a couple of 400 gallon water tanks which we use for showers/baths. I have a 50 gallon rain barrel outside my main yurt that we use for dishwater.
The next time I am up at camp, I will try to remember to take pics of the setup.
