Ben3555 0 Report post Posted May 29, 2007 (edited) Are you refering to the white tubes? The white tubes are vents for carrying out the kitchen fumes. Not applicable to hdb flats. We can only use the recycling function not the ventilation function, so the contractor kept these aside for me. But, I don't remember my tubes being filled with charcoal or like material. They were empty. Usually the hood contains charcoal filter to absorb odours. Shouldn't the charcoal like material be inside the hood? Thanks Homeowner.. Found out those are the Charcoal Filter and managed to installed it... Edited May 29, 2007 by Ben3555 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ben3555 0 Report post Posted July 4, 2007 Hi all...Thanks for the nice comments.. credit goes to my id and his team of workers.. there are minor issues along the way but the comforting part is their responsiveness and willingness to resolve problems.. so it has been a relatively smooth journey...Now to continue...The passage way to the bedrooms...My small toilet and shower... moving on to te kitchen.. quite a small area so using the same glossy white laminate with orange coloured glass backsplash...pretty happy with the final outcome. As wife is not into baking, so no oven...save some $$..Basin area with the wahser and dryer The opposite side... A close up of the Rinnai hood and hob.. really effective.. cook fast due to the burner design and the hood is powerful enought to clear the cooking smell.. good buy...The main kitchen lights from Ikea.. Not ex and effective..very brightAnother look of the kitchen..now with the bottom cabinet lights on..Tomorrow will continue with the rest of the house..

sumobear 0 Report post Posted July 4, 2007 Just curious...I always like the under light for kitchen's bottom cabinets but how do you change the light bulbs when they blow? Must you lie on the floor and change them? And with such lighting, your cabinet has to be wall mounted so can the cabinet hold the weight of your things, in term of durability?

Can you show me how it look like inside? very beautiful house (minus the pipe in the toilet)what is the total damage so far?Erm...but I think the bottom cabinet will hold more weight like utensils, electric appliances and there are activities going on like cooking and chopping. Ben, probably you can enlighten us with your personal experience of your new home. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
