32 viewsOn the left you can see the hot and cold water PVC pipes running the length of the back wall. The copper hot water pipe is housed in PVC for durability. The pipes will run under the back walkway, which is being poured in this picture. The back walkway is more than 1 meter wide, and will slant off to the right into a drainage canal to aid in water runoff. (07-Jun-04)dozer

32 viewsIf I knew now what I knew then. These oh so common words with regards to building here. So what would I have done differently? Keeping in mind that the house turned out very well, yet even so these are things that if I was starting over I would consider...

31 viewsThis is another case where most expensive is not necessarily best. These Grohe bottom washers are super heavy duty but somehow constrict the water flow, meaning that the emitted water is low pressure. A low cost standard washer has not problem with pressure. I know it is these washer since I had two installed and they both had the same problem. Later I replace on with a 'cheapy' and that one works great.dozer
