windy 0 Report post Posted August 4, 2008 (edited) Just went down to check the air-con trunking...nearly got a shock! It's so ugly and basically goes round the whole MBR. It will be impossible to place my furniture against the wall...the aircon man told me that the water pipe need to be at the bottom so must lay this way..but we went over to my neigbour to see how they run the trunking...was very neat. Most of the trunking was on top. Called the air-con man and luckily he say can still change...but I dunno what he gonna do with the 2 big holes that he drilled lah... Here's the ugly trunking... Bedroom 1 Bedroom 2 MBR Luckliy went over to check tonight, if not cannot change liao....Hopefully tomorrow he can re-do it nicely. Anybody have problem with their aircon trunking too?

mos_burger 0 Report post Posted August 4, 2008 Hi Windy, Im your neighbour. Ha.. Let me share some of my considerations when placing the fancoil unit. All is about minimising the distance of the pipings. For MBR, try to place near your aircon ledge and toilet. shortest distance possible. For bedrooms, try to place above the door, also shortest distance possible from MBR A/C ledge. For living room, place to the wall near bathroom so shortest diatnce for water pipe. 2 cents worth... Share some of my pic with you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tckrto 0 Report post Posted August 5, 2008 Thanks! Your is pretty neat too! We first time no experience mah... windy my is like dat lay. u can give it a try. my mbr abit different so i nv draw. As we have a partition for WIW so my air con pipe is all hidden behind the partition wall. will need lots of silica gel to absorb the mositure. As for toilet all pipen is hidden on top of the boxup for the water pipe. just make sure your air con contractors insulate it and cable tie it up neatly. and tell them to avoid conseal water pipe which has blue and red tape as marking.

Will post up actual pics when I go down again. Wonder what they going to do with the 2 big holes though... they will patch the 2 big holes with cement lor, just make sure its patched nice n flat as in all fairness, these aircon fellas are no wetworks specialist so mus get them to try their best if still not flat, as ur id or contractor to do some additional touch up work should solve e issue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bedroom 1 Bedroom 2 MBR Would it be better like that? (pardon me for me poor photoshop skill.. ) Edited August 6, 2008 by windy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyway, this are the tiles sample we used. Homogenous Tile (White) for Living Room & Compressed Marble (black) for Foyer Also finalised the colour scheme for our painting...hopefully everything will turn up well...contractor cum 'ID' suggested that we paint the false ceiling at the living room grey....we trust his idea...so we agreed... Also finalised the laminate for my bedrooms flooring, wardrobe, vanity top and kitchen cabinet.... These will be up by next week or the following week...hee...so fast....mean my money will be gone faster Anybody know how much does a bedside table cost? Is $250 each too expensive??
