So two weeks ago I was a plumber and this last week an electrician. While the self-imposed deadlines took some of the joy out of the work, it’s still fun to run a new water line or wire a new circuit. Here are some pictures, which I know all of you have been waiting on pins and needles to see.
Yesterday, I got the good news that both the plumbing and electrical pass inspection. The inspector seemed particularly impressed that all of my fixtures had proper venting. Now the walls can be insulated and drywalled. Yay! Anyone want to come and help? I need to have the drywall on by the end of the weekend.
The range hood, however, is proving to be the bane of my existence. We want it to be able to exhaust outside, but a stud was in the way and so I had to do some framing.
I thought I was good to go and then I discovered that the conduit for the main electrical line to our metre and then to the breaker panel was in the way on the outside of the house. Now I’ll have to run my ducting into the cabinet so I can make some bends and turns.
