mwerkz 0 Report post Posted October 8, 2008 Warranty wise... mine is 1yr for parts and fan coil units; 5yrs for the compressor. Good that you have applied for the reno permit before u even get the key. If you only start applying the first time after collection of keys, your reno will start even later. All the best to you! mine is juz standard warranty for the aircon. i din opt for any extended warranty. actually still unsure whether to go for extended. erms...

mwerkz 0 Report post Posted October 15, 2008 (edited) hey, how come the pix all got the water or stains spots???? the lights are nice leh! hehe. i oso dunno. but i think is de dust all ard. super dusty de whole house now. hubby going down tml to speak to de ID. everything shuld be completely hacked by than. so we'll c if there is any new pics to update. else, will juz have to wait till sat when i drop by the flat to monitor the progress, since my ID wil be out of town dis wkend I think caused by dusts... it's very visible when flash is used... mwerkz, Those tiles pics u showing are taken from the shop itself is it? yeah. the tiles were taken from the tiles shop a fw weeks back. took so many pics. finally shortlisted to these 2 agree with angel somemore the first one cannot be used if getting a round dining table alright. so currently 2 votes for the big round lights. but anyway my dining table is rectangular n de reason y i hesitating to get this light is becos, de light can only drop by 0.8m n my ceiling is close to 2.9m, so abit worried it'll be a little short. wonder how low will my false ceiling at that area be..

mmycheng 0 Report post Posted October 15, 2008 You want your house to be monochromatic in colour? If so, then go for the black/silver ones. My personal preference is to use a brighter colour for the lights to create a visual contrast. The lights can also match other furnishings like dining light with dining table/chairs, living room lights with curtains/sofa and bedroom lights with curtains/bed. Just some suggestions.

LGG 0 Report post Posted October 15, 2008 The 3 drop down lights represent Fu Lu Shou in Feng Shui, one of the books that i read about. And also help to distribute the length. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
applefreak 1 Report post Posted October 15, 2008 my dining light quite far away from my dining table too coz i don't like to hit my head on the lights especially when you stand up to serve something to a guest or trying to put food in your loved ones bowl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mwerkz 0 Report post Posted October 15, 2008 (edited) erms.. i'm oso at a lost. all de lights i like 3 dangling light: can set all to diff length, n it's longer black pendant light: unique, but length is short red pendant light: common, but like de design (might take black version instead, since de wall ard dining area is red+white, with kitchen oso red+white) so troublesome but i might go for the black pendant light. cos 1 of my wall at dining area is red, so the light shuld suit there pretty well? VOTES Now: dangling light - 1 + 1(hubby) black pendant - 2 + 1(me) red pendant - 1 Edited October 15, 2008 by mwerkz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
