Super excited to share some exciting news with you all.
When we started our journey we definitely didn't have "everything we needed", we were "unsure" of needs and wants in our home. But our point of view is that it is far more important to get out there, and start our journey.
So many things in life have tried to hold us back and we aren't going to allow anything to prevent us from living and experiencing life. No matter what obstacle we face we know we will find our way and time to overcome it. I am so glad we have taken our time to find out our "true needs" and to not just listen to what others have chosen. There are way too many factors making each of our situations different and requiring a different solution. Yes, some of it seems simple to most, but reality is different.
We wanted to be sure
what we wanted and truly needed.
Think about the pros and cons of all the options,
Ensure it is sustainable
A quality product,
Product and company has great track record (proven),
Will meet our requirements for a long time (quality built, enduring materials - Stainless Steel with this one)
Not ruin our home to install,
Require too much renovation
Take too long to do
Require a professional to install, maintain or repair (all of which requires money)
Not create other problems that could be costly (like moisture - mold, rust, mildew etc)
Fuel would be accessible everywhere we go,
Has to match our personalities (both of us are survivor minded and just in case can we use this without:

Needing money for fuel

Needing a gas station (in disasters, fuel becomes scarce, pumps don't work with electricity, stores have no product etc)

Doesn't require constant work or consideration

(don't have to worry about solar panels or if they are getting sun,

don't want to worry about propane freezing and how to thaw it

don't want to have to carry large amounts of fuel - taking precious space or have to spend much time getting etc)
This uses very small amounts of fuel

Can it potentially help with any other needs? (How about cooking, heating water etc)

It took a long time, but we decided several months ago and have been purchasing pieces one at a time as able.

As we have had so many things fall apart, we didn't dare breathe our plan until we had it all and ensured it worked well.

We finished installing yesterday!
