Do you have a cutoff/switch valve so you can divert the hot water in the summer?

Yeah, there is a manifold that all of the water runs through and individual shutoffs for each line as well as one for the main line.

Pretty much all you do it turn the main line off and turn the circulating pump off in the summer and you are golden.

Thanks, and I have familia in the poconos, so it is not that far of a jaunt. I am in Boston for work every once in a while as well.

 

wow....i'm green w/ envy here

do you have plans to wire for network all around the house yet?
have plans to wire for the HT will save you $$ and time down the road as well

 

Network is all wireless, we are high tech here in WV. We don't need no stinkin' wires.

The rest of it will all be wired. I will probably use 10 AWG (possibly 8 AWG) for the speakers, and the projector will be hung at the same time everything is finished, but it will wired so that I could swap in a new projector and not have to run new wire.

 

cant really stream all that 1080p material smoothly now...cant we?

hehe...just a suggestion..
i'm a huge media/audio type of guy so it's always one of the things on top of my list


w/ all the planning and physical labor and such on the house
do you have time for the wedding planning at all?
the lady is taking care of all that?

 

You would be suprised what you can stream on a N based network

I am a huge media person as well, make my own speakers and everything. I have a plan for everything, but I am more of a put it together when it comes type of person.

I am helping with the wedding planning, but I definitely do less than she does. I have 4 tasks left for the wedding, and I am getting them knocked out tomorrow.

 

i'm on wireless N and i dont think it's up to the task (or maybe i'm not much of an IT type of a guy )


hope everything come together for the big day

oh...and congrats on everything

 

Amazing what you're doing. If I wasn't so addicted to this ocean breeze, I'd wise up and build my home like you're doing.

Don't go messing up mommy and daddy's house now.

Thanks Chef, always glad to hear positive encouragement.

It is a great experience. I am loving every minute of it, even the times when contractors call and they are supposed to be there the next day and then tell me they will be there in a month. Fine, i will get another contractor since you don't want to do the work without an appropriate time frame of notice.

I am really excited to get started on my part of things though. Most of the stuff has been contractor done till now (except for the basement stuff) and I am itching to get my hands dirty running plumbing, electrical etc. That will start Tuesday once the slab is poured and finished on Monday. I would like to be working of an evening on a daily basis, keeps things fresh in my head along with progress on all fronts.

 

Concrete floor is down, new pictures up.

Waiting on the excavation contractor to call back so he can come back fill the walls, then we can get started back with some good progress again.
