With the structure and exterior complete the next step is installing utilities. We run plumbing, electrical, heating, and venting.

The plumbing includes drainage and venting. The drains all run into a single grey water out pipe, which would run into a french drain or sewer at the final location. The plumbing venting is properly done and exits at the roof. We typically use composting toilets or incinerating toilets to avoid the need for black water, but a standard toilet can be installed and connected to sewage if necessary.

For electrical we have both AC and DC systems installed with separate wiring. We do this to offer a more flexible and efficient power system. This allows us to run high quality custom lighting and build our own exhaust systems for ventilation. Our custom exhaust systems are able to be more compact, repairable, and less expensive than standard system.

We typically include two heating systems in our tiny homes to ensure that your home has a backup in case the main heating system fails or experiences an malfunction. Many homes may not include this to save the cost, but from our experience it is crucially important. It is so important because if a failure occurs in a freezing climate it could lead to damage to your home. The heating systems typically included are the following: radiant heat from a propane boiler, and an electric heater.
