CONCRET 395Sep 22, 2017 9:20 pm In other news, some action planned! Spoke to our concretor subbed to the project... and he's aiming to get driveway in next week! Kept hammering down our desire to have a soft as possible grade incline for the driveway. Good thing he knew about wheelchair codes having done schools around the area recently. And he seemed confident we can achieve our big want/need! I hope I didn't annoy the crap out of him... Also got a phone call from our solar installer, and they should have installed the system today!! For people's info, I had a bit of a panic attack when I got the 'Negotiated Connection Contract' from our local energy provider (Ergon) when I saw that a potential swap and install of a new 'solar meter' was up to 2000$!! However, I remembered that when Ergon first called me to install the meter earlier in the build so that our darling tradies can use their tools with our power (sometimes), I specifically made them aware we were going solar... so they already pre-installed a solar ready meter. Hence, I hope... as the sales lady from Ergon assured me... we will not get a surprise 'new meter' charge in the next energy bill. As we did not budget for this little surprise. Finally, we will have the big pile of top soil moved around. That means... we must be close. The list is dwindling: 1. Fences ordered.. but the SS has been away all week and the sales team at Dixon doesn't know when we expect it to arrive. 2. A/C System needs to have its giant unit installed. That will be awesome! Hopefully not too loud because we have such nice neighbours in our backyard. 3. Occupancy Cert? not sure when this happens or how long it takes in our council area. Definitely going to run out to the house tomorrow to scope out our brand spanking new 'polar bear saving' solar panels!.

Looks as safe as it can be given the position of our house etc. Really reassured about this. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Hmm only ten panels... must be 500w sized ones. More space for more!? Or they are not done installing? edited... my eyes played tricks on me. My bad... 20 panels.. 250w = 5kw total. Duh!

CONCRETE GO 399Sep 23, 2017 8:25 pm Great news on getting your driveway boxed up Rural and the slope is much better than having it steep and awkward. It's all coming together now with the fence and concreting, wrapped the solar panels are up too. We are going to go solar for the pool will save our power bill big time. I wouldn't be impressed with a meter charge like that, imagine all the house stuff you can buy with that $2k . Which way do you go to the Coast Rural? In past me or out through NSW? I'm going to the coast tomorrow to pick up my big two from nanny and poppies (might be sneaking to harbour town too ) I'm getting excited for you Rural your getting so close. Your certificate of occupancy can't be completed until council sign off on your plumbing and draining and your shower screens have been installed that should help give you a indication of how your tracking.
