I think the meter belongs to the gas company hence it might not be able to be recessed. You must be close to your handover date now?

Close as in M give us a date they are targeting, then not only fail to fix any of the issue we've been calling out but we manage to find 20/30 more.... yeah we're close! I was actually asking about the external rinnia gas water heater, a photo would be great. Agree the gas meter isn't recessed.

Just make sure they fix all issues before handover. We had an option to recess the HWS unit but didn't go ahead bc we were concerned if we planned to change or upgrade the unit in the future it might not fit... also we didn't know we can install a second HWS to split the hot water (1 for each floor) which is more ideal for hot water supply.

[/quote] Thanks, the two months is dragging on. For sure we're not letting M "present" until issues are fixed. Appreciate the update on the water heater, we weren't given an option, but like your thinking re upgrades in the future.

Re: Dream Metricon Glendale 38 (Sydney)! 4995Jun 07, 2017 8:03 pm Hi All, Apologies for not being active as I have been recovering the last week or so from the nasty jet lag. A 10 hour time difference does your body and brain in . So our travels to Europe for a holiday for sight-seeing also yielded an opportunity to explore European style Furniture and homeware. And boy were were fascinated and wowed with what we saw... Our first hotel in Paris we were treated with an old Parisian style lobby which reminded us of our sitting room Around the corner was surprise surprise Luxury Living furniture store and I had to go see the Trussardi Cherry lamps... This floor lamp is €4000 This lamp is €6000 Next was B&B Italia and I found my Minotti Freeman lounge (€20,000) and instantly fell in love!!! Freeman lounge is so gorgeous. Love this awesome lamp.... Popped into the Versace store and browsed the plates and cutlery...they are gold trimmed Milan was a totally different experience for home shopping and we had a relevation of selling our Metricon house and moving to Milan I was memorised with seeing the Bocci 28 series light in person.... wow! But at a price tag of €800 for each light (yes 1 globe) we quickly ran out of the store Alas, we loved the Bocci pendants so much we bought some replicas in Oz for our bathroom and dining table (future) Our hotel in Milan had this awesome mirror with a Halo LED light in the middle. Wished M offered these mirrors . The bathroom has 800x1200 marble tiles The hotel in Prague had this lovely relaxation room which I want for our study room so bad..... Found this fascinating clock for our family room. Too bad it was too big (1m diameter) so couldn't bring it home Gotta get some of these cute figurines Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Bought a stack of Molton Brown hand wash, hand cream and custom dual stands from London too Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Found my Georg Jensen water pitcher Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Oh and lastly we got a surprise and bought a European artwork! Yup the painting is a limited edition of 150 in the world and it was actually $1k cheaper to buy in Europe then buying in Australia . This beauty is going into our master bedroom..... . Artist is Bruno Dayan and the gallery is called Lumas. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ And that's the end of our European holiday........

Looks like you guys had a great time there. Re: Dream Metricon Glendale 38 (Sydney)! 5000Jun 08, 2017 7:39 pm I saw a mirror similar to that one in Newcastle. The halo light was around the magnifying part of it and it was touch on/off. Wasn't too expensive just can't remember what shop it was in.
