500 showers heated from one small compost pile (Inspiration Farm)



Paul Wheaton - Permies.com - takes a visit to Brian Kerkvliet's Inspiration Farm in Bellingham, Washington.

There he finds Brian's little compost pile that provided 500 hot showers in the warmer months. Compost heat can, indeed, be captured to heat water in moments by running black plastic pipe through the heart of the heap. After the hot showers, you have a lovely pile of compost.
