    Nothing had been done after the first day of hacking as the permit to hack away the walls and storeroom was being rejected and pending after the appeal. My contractor/ID was jaw dropped when they realized that actually HDB rejected the plan to remove the store.

    Hello,

    Are you planning to move your master bedroom to Room 2? Where is your new store room?

    The smart switch by Sonoff. Can be controlled by google home, remote control, handphone and the physical switch.

    The amazing thing is the binding of the switch, my heater is now 2 way. Switch outside common area and master bedroom can be controlled both ways. Love it.

    The con is the plain design. However, the tempered glass gave it the classy look. Do note that neutral wire is required for these switches as compared to the xiaomi kind. (Wife labelled the switch for easy identification)

    Hi Kengwee,

    I believe you have done an evaluation between Xiaomi smart switches and Sonoff switches. Can you tell us more about the advantages and disadvantages of each brand.

    I am quite interested in the Xiaomi switches as I have quite a few smart products from Xiaomi already.

     


  3. Tiles pop out are due to poor workmanship. If one section of the tiles has popped out, the rest of the tiles may pop out as well. Your contractors are wary that if they just repair the broken part, the rest of the tiles will pop out in the repair process.

    My advise is to remove all the tiles first. No point just to repair one part and then later on another parts pop out. Better tackle the root cause of the problem once and for all. 


  4. Don't buy SMEG Washer/Dryer. You will regret it. I bought one and paid almost SGD3000 in August 2016. But after 3 years, motor spoilt and could not spin anymore. When the washer was turned on, you can see spark coming from the motor. Very scary. 

    SMEG Washer/Dryer does not use inverter motor. As a result, it is less energy efficient and it has only 2 ticks on water consumption. Stay away from SMEG. Its products are grossly overpriced.

  5. Hi Jem,

    Where is your EA located? Can you post your floor plan so that we can visualize better?

    My contractor managed to conceal all the electrical wires and water pipes in my resale flat. I think HDB is not too fussy about that since all newer flats have concealed wiring and piping too.

    What is the thickness of the kompacplus for the window ledge? It certainly looks better but do you intend to use it as a table?
