This video is a bonus video to show you how to supercharge your passive solar heating and cooling. In this video I’m going to show you how using the ambient temperature of the earth will reduce your reliance on fossil fuels, and lower or even eliminate your heating and cooling bills.

That means that even if you lose power, your home will not freeze. Your pipes can’t freeze and your pets and plants will remain safe.

Here are the links for Part 1 - 3 of this Heating and Cooling for Free Series.

👩🏼 Bio
I’m Kristina Munroe. I’m a structural engineer, author, and consultant. My passion is guiding you step-by-step through designing and building a sustainable home you’ll love without the typical frustration, overwhelm, and costly mistakes.

In 2010 I moved my two young sons back to my hometown of Durango, Colorado to build an off-grid home and to start a new life. Along with a talented carpenter, and a couple of helpers, we built a small solar-powered home we lovingly named Twisted Oak. This magical home is not only beautiful, whimsical, and fun, but it heats and cools itself, generates its power, collects and heats its household water, and manages its waste in an environmentally responsible way.

I believe we can all live more abundant lives by lessening our impact on this precious planet and living more connected to cycles of nature. This is not about living in lack, but rather embracing the abundance we have by consuming and throwing away less.

I raised my two young sons in Twisted Oak. And in all those years, I've never regretted creating a small, simple, and affordable home.
We love living closer to nature and reducing (not eliminating) electrical devices or modern conveniences.

I carefully and consciously designed our home so that we do not rely on electricity for our comfort or safety. If we lose power, it's only a minor inconvenience.
