How will you supply your tiny house with running water?
Goto WZH to know more.
Every tiny house needs a steady supply of clean water for the kitchen and bathroom. This couldn't be easier if you're on a block with mains water already available. Simply connect a normal garden hose to the plumbing at the back end of the tiny house, the same as you would with a caravan and you're good to go.
If mains water isn't an option, an off grid water system might be for you. This isn't normally hugely expensive but you'll need to purchase a few components. Make sure you seek advice from a plumber and have your system professionally installed.
Firstly, you'll need some guttering to catch your rain water. Monument matte colorbond guttering, to match in with your tiny house, is normally available anywhere you can purchase colorbond. You'll also need a water tank and a water pump, the pipes to connect it all together and the power required for the pump. You'll likely want a 5,000L water tank or greater. Your tiny house roof space isn't huge so unless you're in a high rain area, you might struggle to get enough water for daily use from only that source. Collecting water from a nearby shed can also help or you can buy water in to get you started.
You'll also need to think about where your grey water is going to go. All the sinks and shower in Häuslein tiny houses are plumbed to the same point which can then be plumbed into an existing septic tank by a plumber. Again, if an off-grid solution is required, there are some excellent off-grid drainaage systems available. They will usually include a grease trap and trench with slotted pipe laid down hill with layers of gravel to filter the grey water. If your waste water is being dispersed in the ground, you'll also want to be careful to be using environmentally friendly soaps, laundry liquids and other products.
It would normally take a plumber within a day to get you going with water tank, drainage and associated infrastructure. Not a huge cost but important to keep in mind.
Choosing the right Tiny House size can be a daunting task as they come in various sizes and layout designs. When you&#;ve decided to downsize your house to enjoy the benefits of a clutter-free life and financial freedom, you want a new home that&#;s going to work best for you. Planning for creative space is the key!
Think about what rooms you currently use most in your home. You&#;ll probably come up with the kitchen, living room, bedroom and bathroom. Making the decision to get a Tiny House and do away with the spare room seems like a sensible choice. Why maintain and pay for unused space?
There&#;s immense satisfaction in being able to clean, maintain, heat and cool a Tiny House space efficiently. It&#;s part of the freedom lifestyle and it all comes down to size.
There are definitely some pros and cons to the different sizes that are out there and here are some important features and facts to consider when figuring out your lifestyle needs and a home to fit:
It may seem obvious, but if you have kids they are going to need their own sleeping space. As you will see below, loft bedrooms designs are available and most families transitioning to tiny living chooses a loft bedroom design.
Amy and Greg, from @life_done_simple &#; Teewah 7.2 double loft bedroom Aussie Tiny HouseOur Tiny House models with loft bedrooms can accommodate 1-2 singles, a double and a queen sized mattress comfortably. Loft ceilings mean you can&#;t stand up in the room, yet a sky light and the windows add a sense of space and a view you&#;ll love to wake up to.
A double loft can be used for storage, the kids bedroom or guest room. A couch that doubles as a guest bed is a popular way to accommodate family and friends visiting for a few days and can even be the main sleeping area if you prefer a ground level bedroom.
Ground level bedrooms are best when stairs are not ideal. You&#;ll regain the storage space we usually design into the stair drawers, with a downstairs wardrobe.
Deciding what to take with you into your lifestyle is important so it fits. Being organised and creative is simpler with less clutter.
In any case, you will want to make sure your tiny home is big enough for you and your stuff.
When planning on size for your tiny house, make a list of some of the large items you will want and add them to a drawing at scale. This can really help in deciding the length of your tiny home.

The weight restrictions are the number one thing you need to keep in mind before you start planning your tiny home as to legally tow a Tiny House on Australian roads, you need to keep it under 4.5 tonnes.
Aussie Tiny Houses are built on registered trailers and designed for full time living. Although fully transportable, most Tiny House owners in Australia are living permanently on land or considering moving after a period of 3+ years.
Australian regulations list the maximum size of 12.5m x 2.5m. The larger the house, the more weight to transport. We use an experienced towing company to deliver your Tiny House yet a large 4wd could tow a 6.0m Tiny House if you did want to move about in your home.
The legal height limit for Australian roads is 4.3m and all our homes are built to within this range with various roof shapes.
Remember, the bigger you go in terms of your tiny house size, the bigger and heavier the trailer will be, and less weight you&#;ve got in plans left to build a house under 4.5 tonne.
Keep in mind that a deck on one or two sides of your Tiny House is extra space and a design feature you&#;ll appreciate.
