Wheeee!: Awesome Tube Slide Should Replace Stairs - Gizmodo

Here’s another feature that my dream home will have:

Wheeee!: Awesome Tube Slide Should Replace Stairs - Gizmodo

Oh, you’re not aware of my plans for a dream home? It will feature:

  • photovoltaic solar
  • passive solar heat and hot water
  • a cistern to catch rainwater
  • a partially underground main living room
  • a couple of fully underground rooms
  • a greenhouse
  • and now…an awesome tube slide

And my plan is for it to be located roughly here.

Quite eco-friendly! Just curious to know - how different/beneficial is a partially underground room from the ones which are above the ground?

I don’t know, exactly, but having insulation with an effective R value of infinity sure can’t hurt. Warm in winter, cool in summer. Sounds good to me!
