Too bad you cannot get a picture of these on S.I.

If I had it to do over again I would make my home
totally independent of utilities....

Well water or Cistern.. THAT is off the roof... so the roofing material as I had it in St. Thomas was Rubberoid.... A thick paint.

Generators... but now better wind turbines. I wish I understood how to get the energy into the house.

Septic fields...

Anything left ? Heating...

This is the big one. Wood is taboo.. AND propane kersosene are hitting the high end on price. Solve the heating problem.
