    How to heat your house the redneck way

    This is not joke. This is my neighbor (the one who brings the value of all houses down) He just built this shed out of old wood he had laying around. Check out the tarp roof. He put a wood stove in this place and is trying to heat his trailer. He is going to go through 20 cord to ac his house this winter. WOW... I hope this dump goes up for sale or burns down soon.

    I like the 3 satellite dishes and 2 rooftop antennas on his roof - CLASSY! I bet it smells good inside that place.

    I don't understand WTF he is trying to do - is that pipe transporting hot air or hot water????

    Wow man - sorry about your luck. We should start a redneck house picture thread BTW - we got some doozies out my way.

    Yeah he is trying to push hot air. the pipe i bet is 50' in length. When I know the wind is blowing towards that place I go out and start a fire and hope that I can catch it on fire. Iam sure he would just drag another pos trailer up there. All around me are new or recently remodled houses and then we have this eye sore to deal with. Nobody likes to have him there

    How in the hell will that even work????? The air in the pipe is going to cool down considerbly with the long stretch it has to make, especially with cold air flowing around it. The output is really going to be low anyway. Wow.
    Never argue with an idiot. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

    Calling an illegal alien an undocumented immigrant is the same as calling a drug dealer an unlicensed pharmacist.

    I don't understand why the guy wouldn't have the wood burner in the house AND one in the garage? As far as looks go...I have seen worse but at least he cuts the grass and the yard isn't a bunch of wrecked cars.

    the guy is a total doosh bag! I own just about up to his door and all behind him. I came home one day and I hear a chain saw running so I walk out back and he is cutting down the trees on the edge of the wood. I walked over and said what is going on and he said O I was just cleaning up the line for you. haha I am glad a caught him on the second tree. I have already got in touch with the town when he first put it up. They told my there is nothing they can do about it. I have since gone to every town meeting and am trying to get on the board to get the visual nuicence past. I have had enough of dirt bag sheit. I work my arse of to make my house look nice and then people build things like this.

    Looks like a 4" pipe, not even B-Vent which is double walled pipe for exhaust.... Good for about a 6x6 room IF the heat can stay in it The 3 or 4 elbows don't help either!!

    If he could get himself a 12" pipe over there, well insulated it may actually help out a bit!! Wow.... The things people dream up!
    All our government does is distract us while they steal from us, misspend our tax $ and ruin our country

    i really like to see trailers with half a$$ed additions like that. don't get me wrong, mobile homes have their place, but adding on to them isn't really what they were designed to have done to them. I lived in one at one point of my life, so i think i can comment here.

    Does this guy work or anything or just one of the many ny'ers that I support with my taxed paycheck?

    Maybe thats all he can aford. If it where noise or a horrible smell i'd understand your complaint, but.......
    The person who says it cannot be done should not interrupt the person who is doing it.
