Скачать или смотреть WHY HE BUILT TWO LOG WALLS — THE 1879 "HOUSE WITHIN A HOUSE" SECRET

"THEY CALLED IT A SPECTACULAR WASTE OF TIMBER — UNTIL THE MOUNTAIN FEVER HIT AND THEIR SINGLE-WALL CABINS TURNED INTO ICEBOXES."

In October 1879, the settlers of Bridger Basin watched in disbelief as Jacob Reinhardt began building a second set of log walls around his already finished cabin. To them, it was the madness of "mountain fever." Why cut twice the timber and do twice the work for one small home?

What Jacob knew—and they didn't—was the secret of Dead Air Space. By creating a "house within a house," Jacob utilized the most efficient insulator available on the frontier: trapped air. While his neighbors' homes leaked heat through every chink and crack, Jacob’s double-walled sanctuary stayed a staggering 26 degrees warmer with half the firewood. This is the story of the Thermal Envelope and how one man’s "waste" became his family’s salvation.

In this video, you’ll discover:

The Physics of Convection: Why moving air carries cold, but trapped air stops it dead.

The "Zero Draft" Secret: How the double-wall system neutralized the lethal Montana wind-chill.

Frontier Efficiency: Why Jacob actually saved more trees over ten years than anyone who built a "standard" home.

If you’re a fan of pioneer ingenuity, insulation science, or off-grid building, Jacob Reinhardt’s 1879 masterpiece will change how you look at "thick walls" forever.
