Our house, an old country mansion, was totally renovated using organic materials:
- Low temperature solar heating through the ceiling
- Natural insulation: wood wool, cellulose padding, hemp…
- Garden clay coating, hemp concrete, lime painting…
- Rain water recovering (toilets, washing machine, garden…)
- Natural reed filter for dirty water sanitation
- Direct home cooling from underground water
- Wind-mill for water pumping
And more recently :
- A new wood bread oven that you can use ! and two solar oven
- We installed solar cells for electricity, on the roofs ! ( 9kWc )
- We built new chicken houses with clay from the garden…
- We installed different wood oven for winter confort and for wellbeing !
