For most single family US homes (which are single story) this would likely be a nightmare to install and maintain.
Definitely a cool idea but a leak or any maintenance might quickly undercut the cost savings
- PaulDavisThe1st 2y agoJust as an FYI: > Information obtained from the US Census Bureau’s Survey of Construction (SOC) and tabulated by NAHB, shows that the rising trend of single-story homes reversed in 2021. The share of single-story homes decreased in 2021 and the share of two or more stories homes started was greater than one story homes. This is in line with recent NAHB analysis of new single-family home size trends. https://eyeonhousing.org/2022/07/share-of-two-or-more-stories-new-homes-increased-in-2021/ https://eyeonhousing.org/2022/07/share-of-two-or-more-storie...
