Should be good. Many country already using it. But price is very expensive here.

Today spend 1/2 days in my house, Install the Rinnai hob, fix the hoob (but yet to put the ducting), Got 2 maid do some cleaning. Now got few more todo...

Tree I report to MPSJ, take 2 months plus to come take care of it. Initially they only want to "trim", than I show them the damage it done to the drain and request MPSJ to cut everything. So they did FOC

Material for my KC is plywood + ICA / Fomica. Is difference from Melamine.

My wife and me is the ID I design most of the structure, she suggest the finishing.

Thank you.

I got the from Chan Kitchen (LLM Design). I deal direct with the boss is a special arrangement and price. Got it done in 10 days and few days later solid top. You need to go to the shop LLM Design @ LDP furniture to check out, talk to the sales person.

Aiyah, your father, his money let it be. All you can do advice, show him some photos or magazine.

Finally i finish install the Fotile hood. DIY for fotile hood is really pain in the azz. Help my friend install other hood also not so much problem.

What stain do you mean?

Price not sure, depend the size from 1ft - 5ft.

I have put it @ my toilet basin where the mosaic are. Will put in to my daughter both room soon.

Added on December 2, 2011, 12:02 amAcid Stain all done. The border is stain in difference color. Too bad the concrete did not react to the color we wanted. Well acid stain is random, can't complain.


This 3 photos taken by the contractor. Will have to take a top view.








And this kitchen Hood and hob all DIY, install by myself. Fotile instruction is really pain in the azz, with that kind of instruction good luck to them selling in western where many DIY.

Thank you. At least is something difference.

When i made the booking 6 months ago, it range from RM 4+ to much higher. RM 4+ is only basic one tone no cutting and engraving. More pattern will cost more. Think mine is around RM 8+, can't recall. Pay them many many months.

Yeah, is from them. I give them permission to use.

Thank you, moved in already

Today seal most of the gab using acrylic sealer. Including the gab on the hood top.

I use PYE Acrylic sealer, Is like a paint, sold in 1L, not cheap. I just seal up to 5"off the ground / toilet top of my mosaic. Can get in Ace hardware or houz deport. I think Houz is cheaper. Mine is about 10 feet too.

My top is 8', i ask him put one support in middle. Safer, and i stand many times on the top when installing the hood. So far so good. And is about 3.5" think with rebar too

The tiler will do water proofing on the toilet floor, and 1 feet on the wall.

Added on December 6, 2011, 11:23 pmAnd here the DB Box, i have two. One for each floor. You do the math how many independent MCB i have mostly are sockets, 70% are run independent no looping.

Ground floor


First floor



Here the laundry area during weekday, and hanger installed by myself. Of course using Makita rotary drill . Weekend, we will use the rear balcony we extend on first floor.



I'll advice don't get the China made ceiling laundry. Very chepo design. Should have gotten the more expensive version (think come from Taiwan)

Single phase, but i split it into 2 zone, if you notice i have two ELCB, one floor each. If in future I need to use 3 phase, i will just one phase for 1st floor, and 2 phase for 2nd floor. Not much major hacking. Maybe from front parking porch to my main door will do.

Added on December 7, 2011, 9:39 amNot sure about zheilwane filter, you got to check the inlet hose. This 3M don't use any screw, just lock the hose.

For the DB box casing, my contractor choose this plastic casing. I wanted the Metal casing but too bad it was out of stock (He and me source) for that period of time. Metal is better and can be paint over.


The hanging rod is hung from the ceiling, does it swing during operation? (When you hang the clothes hanger on to the rod)
- So far ok, swing a bit but not too bad. Installation is not cheap, RM 120 i think. But I saved it and install myself
- But this specific model i got from (Xam-Max), i think is clone China made, the instruction menu and the actual product vary too much.

Hehe, i got 6 A/C 1 x 2hp, 1 x 1.5 HP inverter, rest are 1hp normal. and 2 x Storage water heater. I don't switch on all the a/c everyday. Mainly 1 at night maybe 2 if i have guest. Storage water heater random on and off. But usually manually switch off in morning.

Depend on your max load, and planing to have what continues load. 3P is good, but using power that required 3P will be like RM 400+- electric bill per month

I have try switch on all the 6 AC for 1/2 hours without problem, but of course that is the only load all other equipment were off.

A lot.

Added on December 7, 2011, 1:35 pmNormal laundry load should be ok. Is steel cable. Easily 20kg per side. Most important is the mount is properly secure.

Thank you.

Hehe, i think it was 12 or was it 14mm cable. Good to handle up to 60Amps. Until it blow the TNB fuse But I won't be running that much of current. I don't want to pay so much to TNB.

Too much to count. Is more than 1/2 the cost of my house.

After all the reno and my purchase price in 2010, is still cheaper than a basic house now same location and same dimension.
