I really love the greenhouse built inside this small earthship home. I like how they use the rainwater and I especially like how he designed the air conditioning by utilizing a draft from below ground . What a great idea.

The earth tubes are a great idea. I didn’t understand how they work in winter to heat the house. I thought the draft was created by warm air rising sucking the cooler air in. In winter there wont be any warm air to create the draft. There must be something I missed. 🙂
Are the bottle walls for anything more than decoration and letting some light in? I didn’t get that.
All the best, Leia

The earth is a stable temperature so in comparison to the outside the draft from it warms in the winter and cools in the summer.

#3: Yes, but what creates the draft in winter when there is no hot rising air to suck it in? They didn't mention using fans.
