Solar Chalet 3020



The Solar Chalet combines both a 30' and 20' octagon to create this 1,100 sq.ft. mountain home.
The first model will be located near Alma, Colorado above 11,000 feet in elevation. With a short building season SIPs panel construction was the right choice.

Boulder Solargon Walls


The walls have arrived.










Rob's Solargon


This is Rob's Solargon 20 which was completed this summer.

It boasts 311 sq. ft. with kitchen, bath, sleeping nook, under bed storage, ship-size wood burning stove and south facing living area.


All that one needs is offered in this compact dwelling with PV solar system and solar hot water radiant floor heating.


Notice the very cool lighting over kitchen countertops and cabinets.

A small wood stove is all that is needed to heat this compact design when the mercury dips.


The sleeping area is elevated creating storage under the bed.

Complete with custom composting commode.

Rob Galloway is the creator of Solargon and lives well in his Solargon 20.
