The electrical rough in is done! Coordinating the A/C, electrical, chimney and insulation guys has been fairly easy. Each of these companies have been accommodating and very professional with meeting our needs.
Culpepper Electrical worked with us to place outlets and fixture junctions where we needed them. Bryan Culpepper made suggestions that improved the overall installation. Here are a few photos:
With the electrical roughed in the air condition was roughed in also. The inside unit of the 4 ton 18 SEER American Standard heat pump was installed. Platt Heating and Aircondition is completing the installation of the unit. They have been there when they said they would be and most importantly worked with us to keep the attic space clear. The unit in the attic space is suspended. Here is what we have:
Just yesterday the chimney was installed thanks to Huff Welding. Another very highly recommended company. Mr. Huff and his staff cut the hole in the perfectly good roof to insert the chimney pipe, attached the supports and cap. It looks great! We are expecting very high winds today so that will be a good test.
We took a little time off to start a "test" deer plot. We are fortunate to have a nice clearing to work with. I mowed the 1/4 acre location and then my husband turned over the ground using the box blade on the tractor. Alot more work is to be done to get this spot ready for seed. Second photo is me helping.
Our fantastic guys from Culpepper Electric were out very early this morning to trench and prepare for the electric line to be run underground. We are getting very close to having live electricity! They also helped us trench our septic and water line locations. We (I mean my husband) dug and placed the 200gal septic for our grey water yesterday.
That tank reminds me of the Gilligan's Island episode where the little oriental man shows up on shore in a tiny submarine looking thing. Doesn't it look like that?
Next up: Insulation in the next few days....stay tuned.
