STRAWBALE HOUSES -- DICK KNOWS INTERVIEW

Dick is a man of many talents and ambitions. He now lives high on the mountaintops in Northern California. His home is snowed in six months out of the year. He sustains himself on with Hydroelectricity in his Strawbale house. He discusses many of the preparations he uses to greenly survive the winter.

Meet the house that Dick built. Beautiful and very efficient. Dick talks about the finer points of Strawbale housing, and the codes of construction.

HOW TO / INTERVIEW -- DICK KNOWS HYDROELECTRIC


Dick shows us his Hydroelectric system. Impressively it is more than ample to power everything he needs even when there is five feet of snow outside.
