I used ezbuy. 

Air con piping. The Gain City guys are punctual. Was supposed to come at 10.30am, they reach around 15mins earlier. They even came earlier than my ID.  

They discussed about how to run the pipe. To me, as long as it's not too ugly, it should be fine with me. 

The fancoil unit for the 2 bedrooms will be above the door. As for the MBR fancoil unit, it will be fixed above the toilet door. Living room fancoil unit will be at the dining area. 

The only thing that needs my opinion is the trunking in the MBR toilet. 

My ID wanted the trunking to skirt around the beam n the ceiling of the MBR toilet while the aircon guys suggested to run across the wall. As we had chosen the thicker insulation, the trunking is also quite big. Also, the aircon guys mentioned that the more bend of the piping, the more energy the aircon will use. 

Since in term of appearance it wun make much of a difference, we decided to run the piping across the wall. 

Here are some pics of the piping that are done. 

Living room 

The pipe is push thru a false beam. My ID has built a false beam so that the aircon can be fixed onto the this position. Never thought that it can be done this way. 

Bedrooms

MBR 

The pipe has been boxed up. The boxed up was not flushed with the beam because of the door. 

MBR toilet 

Please refer to the 2nd pic for the point which I mentioned earlier about whether to run the pipe across or skirt around the beam and the ceiling. 

This shows the pipe running across the wall.

The damage was close to 5k for the 3 items. TV 2.2k, fridge 1.4k, washer n dryer 1.4k. Pocket really big hole. Hahaha. 

I didn't ask for demo for the hood. Just go with the design n the price.  

Thanks for assuring that the suction is great. 

Was reading your blog too. Think u should get ur contractor or ID to install your downlight properly, it should not have a lobang. 

Haha hopefully the real life usage suction will be as powerful!

Sigh... I'm heading down on Sunday so we'll see, maybe it's rectified already (hopefully)..

After piping installation, my ID started to work on the light, ceiling fan n window grilles. 

Downlights and ceiling fan in the living area up

Spot lights in living room and foyer

Downlights in dining area

Ceiling light at kitchen

Lighted living room

Lights for service yard, both toilets and household shelter are all up. All lights are working perfectly. Now waiting for taobao lights to arrive. So that the ceiling lights in the bedroom and hanging light can also be up. 

All the grilles are also up. 

Now waiting for my carpentry work to start. 

Looks excellent! Your ID will help you to install your TB lights?

Yup. He installed the lights. Because he charged the installation by pieces. 

Anyway your house is beautiful. 

@Sendo999 Thanks for the compliment! I can't wait to see your finished home too!

I'm a rat as well, but I scared to share which year. 

Aircon installation day. It took around 3.5 hours to complete. But hiccup happen. The living room unit got minor fault. When the air con is on, the power light keeps blinking. The installers say need to get Toshiba person to come down coz they can't open the inside as it is under warranty. If they were to open it, the warranty will be void. Haiz. 

On the same day, taobao stuffs arrive. No time to check the stuffs. 

2 days after the aircon installation, all the woods have arrived, meaning carpentry works will be up soon. 

The Rat commented that the nest looks like a warehouse. 

3 days later...  Tadah...

Looks good so far! Your kitchen ceiling light looks like mine, except that mine is not yet up (maybe they wait till finish all kitchen works then up). So excited for you!

Anyway there is a long scratch on the internal pvc of my wardrobe. Although it's not an eyesore, I would still prefer to get the ID to change. Coz we pay for it. 

What do the rest think?
