breakster 9 Report post Posted July 12, 2014 (edited) Crestar Icol. The light can brighten the whole room! We wanted a T5 and a fan without light....but utimately we are glad to include the leds...the bedrooms have all the same fan and 3 lights option.Washroom. Using osram led warm lights 10w each. Kudos to the electrician. This guy is xiao qiang and the uncle both make a good team although uncle likes to drink coke and chain smoke and throwing the butts into the toilet bowl. Super impress with their technical skills. Learn quite a few things from them. Feel they are super handsome when they know their way around flipping the switches and cutting the wires. Thanks to Ephron who went around buying and sorting out things that i need. Edited July 12, 2014 by breakster Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zen_zen 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2014 very nice spinwhite fan you have gotten! what's the damage for the fan and how big is it?Crestar Icol with 3 lights options is great. Are you intending to install T5 in your bedroom? Or just the fan LED light is sufficient and bright?What is the purpose of airduct in the DB box? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
breakster 9 Report post Posted July 13, 2014 Hi Zen Zen,The white fan is $888. Plus led is $1038. Includes delivery and installation.MBR got a T5 installed as shown in the pics...BR1 and 2 does not have T5 for now...but we kept the conduit since xiao qiang already run the cables.The purpose of the air duct is just to make it look a bit more industrial...heh...and just to circulate the air inside the DB more since smelly shoes and router will be housed inside.B.

breakster 9 Report post Posted August 5, 2014 Hi Irene06Wife has been using the fridge....i seldom open it. To me it seems a good choice if you dun have much frozen food cos you dont have to bend/keel to take things out from the veg compartment. Other than that the shelf sturdy and i like the lights when you open the fridge can see all the things at once. Their customer service is good as well as i replaced the veg compartment. There's a cracked on it.For stainless steel like the hob and sink it is nice but more work to maintain it as it stain easily. Washer is good so far seems to wash my tee pretty clean and doesn't come out as crumpled as i thought it will be. There are many features but i usually just use the 15mins wash and daily wash. Baby wash seems to use quite a bit of electricity as it bring the water temp to 90deg...dun really need it.as for the baron toilet bowl i like it...looks good and easy to clean and flush all the things as expected.the alpha instant heater works great...water pressure is best and the shower head has got lots of water mode....i havent try the rain shower model yet tho.the hob is strong only at level 2 and 3...the tv is a good buy...many features and waiting to hook up starhub and minix android tv.crestar fan is strong....very strong...even at level 1 i feel its too strong for the baby...need to ask if we can 'slow' it down or not...but during the day level 1 gives good wind..spinfan is great....no noise at all...but need to hit up to level 4 - 6 to get the wind u need.thats about all the stuff i have...we shifted in for 3 weeks already....will post some pics of the place soon.

James N Joean 8 Report post Posted August 11, 2014 May I know how do u use the hdb provided retractable clothes rack with ur fridge placed there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
breakster 9 Report post Posted August 12, 2014 Hi PTopaz,I got the contractors to hack off the HDB one....my current clothing system is from http://www.ezziliving.com/?p=17 It cost almost $900 i think. They have 3 types of length for the rods, 1.2m 1.5m and 1.8m. Its quite a flexible system as it can be pushed out thru the window rather than drying indoor. I am using 1.5m rods. So far working as expected. Its a bit expensive tho.B. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James N Joean 8 Report post Posted August 12, 2014 I see... better use of space this way But $900 is indeed slightly steep just to serve the purpose of hanging clothes to dry...heheI think it might not be suitable who needs to install window grilles in the service yard (young kids at home)Thanks for the info Bro...

breakster 9 Report post Posted August 12, 2014 Hi PTopaz,Yea i agree its a bit steep haha...but they have some other cheaper system/model which can replace the default HDB hanger as well. You can take a look if you are interested. I intend to install grilles as well aft two years when the kid is bigger. So inorder to use the hanger i will need the grills to be slide-able...there are some slidable grills out there in the market so dun worry about not being able to use the hanger.B.

James N Joean 8 Report post Posted August 12, 2014 Yeah.... what I'm saying is, when this system is extended outside the window, the sliding grille will not Be able to close fully... plus now that ur bi folding door is also removed, there is still abit of risk when u r not at the look out of ur kid while hanging out ur clothes. ..

James N Joean 8 Report post Posted August 12, 2014 Unless the sliding grille can be modified, leaving a gap on the top to make space for the system when extended out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good idea on the fridge at the service yard! Our kitchen for our project is painfully small >.<Hi Septh,We used matte so its quite prone to stains and marks...but its easily wipe off with a damp cloth. I dun see any scratch marks yet maybe they are fine ones which i can't picked up visually.Yea our kitchen is small and we are glad the fridge is over at the service yard so now we have more table top space for more unnecessary things. haha...We have solar films for the whole house and it helps to cut down the heat at the fridge area.
