Carlisle Sheraton Journey - Radiant Floor Heating Feedback?

makido · Sep 05, 2019 3:00 pm

Hi everyone,

This is our first home build so posting here our journey with Carlisle Sheraton Deluxe.
Anyone else is building Sheraton Deluxe?

So far, our experience with Carlisle Sale Consultant is really good. Our sale consultant is very helpful on getting us the sale quote. Our CLE is also nice too.

Our Colour Selection Appointment will be next week but we are still considering couple things.

1) Induction Cooktop or Gas Cooktop. (I prefer induction cooktop as we might go for solar power if we have budget left but my wife prefer gas cooktop and I'm not the main cooker in the house :-D

)

2) Evaporative Cooling System Options:
a) Option 1: 6 Points Upstairs
b) Option 2: 5 Points Upstairs and 2 Points Downstairs (But need to have some void in first floor for the evaporative downstairs ducts)

3) Two dishwashers or one dishwasher

4) One oven plus one built in microwave or One oven plus one combination oven microwave.

Does anyone have experience with the evaporative ducts downstairs? Is it better to have 2 ducts downstairs with 5 ducts upstairs or all 6 ducts upstairs?

Thanks!

Hi Makido

Good luck with the build! I'll be following with interest.

If you don't mind me asking, how much did the upgrades below cost you?

Hi Blujo,

Thanks! No worries, will PM you the details.
By the way, when you visit the display home, just ask them for the upgrade list. They will normally give it to you without asking you to make any deposit. That will list all of the upgrade price that the display home built.

Anyone has the evaporative cooling downstairs in two storey house? Is it worth to have couple ducts downstairs for that? Thanks!

Had our colour selection yesterday. Even though we visited the Spectra more than 10 times, prepared all the list of appliances and everything else, we still felt very rush on the colour selection in the morning and electrical plan in the afternoon.
Our consultants were nice on helping us to choose the colour and electrical plan.

In the electrical plan, my wife wanted to have the heat lamp in the bathroom which I didn’t like as it doesn’t look nice and reading some where the UV might cause bad health. Does anyone know if Carlisle do radiant floor heating in bathroom? Any feedback if radiant floor heating is good or bad? Thanks!
