Central Vac HAH 40' vs 50' difference?
Comments (14)I've attached the 2nd floor of our house plans. I want to put the 50' HAH outside the GAMES closet in the center and the contractor did say he could get to it. He wants to put the 40' HAH outside the Laundry Room, and the 30' HAH in our Master Bath against the closet wall. I'm not sure what height he'd put the outlet if the pipe is coming from below - I guess the lower electrical outlet height as HAH recommends. There is not enough room to run the 50' pipe above... but I just have a hard time believing that I will struggle with a 50' hose as opposed to a 30' hose. Ordinarily, I would be at the contractor's shop the same day he suggested it, but my in-laws arrived tonight (and I've been cleaning our house and garage out in anticipation of their arrival). I also have a meeting with my builder tomorrow morning and a work meeting at noon. Plus, the general running around of my kids for summer activities... I'm having a hard time scheduling this vacuum visit into my schedule! LOL One other thing - the power units he recommends are Beam, or CycloVac for a $200 upgrade. Any comments one way or another on these units? I had another contractor want to put a Simplicity with the HAH - but it had 570 watts and I'm afraid that may not be powerful enough. He had never done the HAH but was game to try and it did have a lifetime warranty which was very enticing... I'm just afraid since he's never installed HAH before (but 20+ yrs installing CV)....See MoreGarbage Disposal in 60/40 sink
Comments (16)This is a link to the Whitehaus 60/40 sink we have. Small bowl is situated on the right in our install. We did install disposal in the small side, but honestly I have been thinking that I might have liked it better in the larger side. That side is large enough for dirty dishes and scraping, frankly. The small side is really small and I have to be careful when I am "aiming" -- we have container for veg. peels, eggshells, etc. for compost, but scraping dishes is a bit of a pain into such a small space, especially when training the 6 & 9 y.o. to do it. :) Here is a link that might be useful: whitehaus sink...See MoreDoes Remodeling the Kitchen Cause you to lose your mind?
Comments (40)Yes. I'm comforted by the others who measured so much that they memorized the numbers. Sometimes I would ask if contractors if they were sure they had measured correctly, especially when they were off from my own numbers. I used to measure, re-measure, re-remeasure, and re-re-measure. My best friend would call me up and ask if she'd interrupted my measuring. At random times of the day I would suddenly have new ideas on layouts, and I'd HAVE to draw, re-draw, and re-re draw everything. I would sit in meetings at work and calculate the possible cabinet dimensions or work up budget figures. Luckilly I work with numbers and financials so no one realized I wasn't taking notes at the meeting, I had graph paper and tracing paper, samples, etc. I visited dozens of showrooms and had 2-3 contingency plans for every decision. Guess what, it all paid off in the end and I love the result....See More50/50 vs 60/40 for bar sink
Comments (4)Single bowl sink. I can see no reason for a double bowl sink, and you have not explained why you want a double-bowl sink. So just get a single bowl sink. If you are so stuck on a double bowl that you want only that, then a 60-40 or 70-30. A 50-50 is the worst - neither side is big enough for anything. How wide is this sink going to be? 25" like GreenDesigns mentioned?...See Morebigjim24
