Hard to believe more than a month has passed since the last update. It have been a busy time. During the last month the electricians have put in all of the wiring and panels that get hidden in the walls. The Air Conditioning crew installed the air ducts and drain lines, etc.
I installed a lot of custom wiring for home networking, video surveillance, television, surround sound and alarms systems. The house will have three closets where all of the equipment is operating. the cables run to these areas. Out in the living areas there will be a minimum of cables, wires and ugly stereo, computer or networking equipment to see because it is all hidden in the walls and closets. Just the TVs and speakers in a nice clean installation.
Also, this month the insulation was installed. We are using a special insulation that sprays on the bottom of the roof. That way it insulates the house and the attic. There is no fiber insulation between the house and the attic except in the garage. This keeps heat from the garage from going into the attic and heating the house. This is the best insulating solution for many reasons and will save a lot on my electric bills.
Recently the drywall was installed. We are currently waiting on a county inspection before they can “mud” the drywall to prep it for painting. Now that I have finished my wiring project I have begun painting the outside of the house with primer. This will be a lot of work.
