I will go through all the fixtures and options as far as plumbing, heating and cooling your tiny house. This will be the one where we talk at length about toilets and all the options there ;-).

Very helpful, thank you ?
I'm taking all four of the Tiny House courses by this instructor. Part 3 is organized and presented similarly to the first two and is straightforward and as comprehensive as a course of this nature should be expected. When an entire subject is not covered, additional resources are provided.
Very informative, laid out the information really well.
