21 March 2009Its hard to see in this photo but my interest is the aircon tubing and cables that we had installed today. Right now its kind of hanging out in nowhere until the wall gets built.pklongballMar 21, 2009

21 March 2009This is a view of some blue pipe installed today. The Aircon company staff installed the copper tubing, electrical and drain lines for the 3 AC units that will be installed later but we took advantage of the open walls to hide some of the piping.pklongballMar 21, 2009

21 March 2009This may seem like an odd view of the roof but what I am trying to show is the wood fascia boards the builder uses on the eaves. We are not using the typical plastic curved pieces under the first layer of tile. The men custom cut this wood to form an almost perfect fit to the underside of the tile to keep the critters and birds out.pklongballMar 21, 2009

Bathroom wall tiles.Been trying for several days to get cheap tiles, but the prices seem to have gone up considerably since I built my house. I really wanted white, but I was not prepared to pay 160 baht / m2 or more for the cheapest plain white tiles I could find. I was able to negotiate 123 baht / m2 for 54 m2 of these very light green ones.
It is not necessary to render the walls first.jazzmanMar 20, 2009

Consumer unitsEach room has its own mini consumer unit with a 32A 2-pole main breaker, a 10A and a 20A MCB. The units cost 500 baht each, fully equipped.
Doing it like this will ensure that if a guest overloads a circuit in the room, only the room breaker(s) will trip and not leave all the rooms in the dark.
The entire building will have a larger consumer unit with an RCCB - of course.
For more details of this and other consumer units, see the Electrical Fittings album.jazzmanMar 20, 2009
