Gas manifold

Pinewood has finished the gas manifold and it's quite a site.  The manifold has shut offs for every gas appliance in the house.  Meanwhile, Tony has moved down to the main floor electrical rough-in.

Holy hole

Pinewood was back today to install the gas piping into the house.  I also had to rent a huge hammer drill to get a hole cut through between the furnace room and the storage under the garage to allow for a heat run.



 

Downstairs HVAC, Tony starts

HVAC has moved down to the basement, so I've allowed Tony, my electrician, to get a head start on roughing in the electrical upstairs.

 

 

HVAC Upstairs nears completion

More HVAC and plumbing today.  Getting close to finishing upstairs.





 

HVAC Continues

A relatively quiet day today - just Andy and his crew continuing the duct work in the attic.  At this point, you can't really push the pace - as Andy said to Phil, my plumber "My pipes are thicker than yours!".  The order for all mechanical systems is HVAC first, plumbing second, electrical third, and home audio/network last before drywall.

HVAC Starts

The HVAC guys from Pinewood Heating are here to start the upstairs.  The owner's son Andy is a great worker.  Though he's a young guy, he's very experienced and is great with the walkthrough before they start the work.  They will probably be done the upstairs by next Tuesday/Wednesday, then they can start the basement.
