Your house leaks money in both directions — heat pouring in all summer, heat pouring out all winter. The fix is older and cheaper than what they sold you.👇

Backyard LowTech is about the forgotten engineering that still beats what replaced it: low-tech ways to heat, cool, power, and water a home — built from recycled parts, hand tools, and the know-how the modern economy quietly set aside. Thermal mass, buried pipe, night air, a $30 fix before a $6,000 one.

We dig into how these old systems actually work: the real numbers and the honest limits — what works where you live, and what to skip. No miracle gadgets. No sealed boxes you can't open. No hype.

We're human, and we get things wrong sometimes. When we do, we say so and fix it.

The best-engineered answer is usually the oldest and simplest one.

New build every Tuesday & Saturday.
