I want to see more lol We didn't organise quotes until we got keys... We have to wait until the end of June for our landscaper to start work. So happy for you, your house is lovely! Waiting for some more internal shots... Oh noo! Sorry to hear that. We had our landscaper come in quote us last month, with a tentative date, and started on the date. So, do you have OC or temp OC at least? We have not moved in yet, as we have no OC, waiting for driveway to finish, so nothing inside other than walls Re: Building the Santorini MK 2 by Masterton Homes 96Jun 18, 2013 11:08 pm We have a full occupation certificate...just no turf, clothesline, retaining and of course vegetation other than the weeds!

Re: Building the Santorini MK 2 by Masterton Homes 97Jun 23, 2013 7:53 pm Final touches We had the plumber come in on Saturday to install the forgotten spa motor. So now that's done, the only items left are the cooktop and the rangehood cover.

Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ No power point to run it! I was aware so I kept reminding the Site Supervisor about the power point for our spa, but not knowing what this unit looked like and how it would be powered, I missed it too. I now expect the Site Supervisor to come back and install a power point for it. I already paid over $1200 for it and do not expect to pay a penny more. And finally, here is our new front yard statue, to conceal the rainwater tank service hole.

It takes no more than 5 minutes to feel the heat all around the house. 10 minutes, and we can turn the fan from high to low. Even with having tiled floors, we can walk bare foot no problem. I'll find out in 6 months if the cooling would be the same or not. Keep an eye on that post. Also, time will tell how long the unit will last before problems, if any, arise. Being Australian made, parts and service would be quite reasonable.
