How may solar panels (collectors) were installed to your roof? Also what is capacity of the water tank installed (I think its 175 litres). I wondering if its ample for the house size. Re: Building a Waldorf by Porter Davis 434Sep 20, 2011 8:43 pm tstr1a Quick question to all building or have built the Waldorf. How may solar panels (collectors) were installed to your roof? Also what is capacity of the water tank installed (I think its 175 litres). I wondering if its ample for the house size. We only got 1 solar panel installed because our house(the back) is north facing with 175L water tank. I am also worried that 175L is not sufficient for the size of the waldorf with 4 ens, 1 powder room, laundry kitchen and galley!

It should get really exciting from hereon... I am dreading the packing and moving though... =) Re: Building a Waldorf by Porter Davis 438Sep 25, 2011 8:26 pm ooh yeah JPZ, not looking forward to the packing and moving either! a friend of mine just moved into her place this weekend and she had everything unpacked and in it's place in one day! I strive to be like that...it will never happen but i can dream..lol I am having a nightmare of deciding on pendant lighting! I have to speak to the SS about the positioning of the pendant lights but i am finding that all the pendant lights out there are really wierd and "jetson" looking or they are too feminine. I guess i want something that is a bit quirky, industrial, possibly stainless steel/chrome. Matt blatt has some nice bullet shaped ones but i'm not 100% yet. Anyone have any other ideas on places? Rob and i went out this weekend and looked at window furnishings and gave up after an hour - it's hard to decide without really knowing the room and also as much as i like the plantation shutters i'm kinda veering away from them. Looking at the roller or roman blinds but still haven't decided...too many options! We're lucky in that the rear of the house is very private and we can probably get away with having nothing on the dining,bifolds and back wall windows for a little while. Don't have to worry about our bedroom (although will have to think about the ensuite window - don't want the creepy old man over the back fence to be having free shows...lol) but will have to think about those rooms that face the street like study, cloakroom, bed 2, rumpus and bed 4. What stage are you guys up to JPZ?

I love it and the nib wall blends perfectly. With window coverings we are on the same boat, might do dual rollers. Gotta find someone to do them cheap. Re: Building a Waldorf by Porter Davis 440Sep 25, 2011 11:07 pm thanks Tony! it does put ur mind at ease when you see the actual outcome. There is so many variations of the stairs as it is in all the display homes i too wasn't sure what the result will look like going off of a conceptual drawing but pretty happy with the outcome. Don't notice the little wall. I'm going to get teh details for the company that installed my friends roller dual blinds and i'll let you know if they are good price wise. Oh and don't forget the PD rewards participants too...speaking of which, i have to find where i put that card!
