Over the past two weeks, the trades have infiltrated and all sorts of new additions have appeared. Electrical, plumbing, and HVAC are all well underway.
Follow-up regarding the well...the drillers had to go all the way down to 620 ft (!!) before they tapped into a subterranean ocean. Once they reached that depth, they found a flow rate of 200+ GPM (we had seen no more than 3-4 GPM on the way down). A happy ending to be sure!
HVAC ducts began snaking here & there.
The big ol' front door frame is complete.
The built-in bookshelf under the staircase has been roughed out. Also visible is the air return box for the 1st floor HVAC system.
The giant shower in the master bathroom! Drain is in, PEX water lines are in.
Rough-ins for the master bathroom vanity.
Here is the tub for the 2nd bathroom. It's a Sterling by Kohler "Ensemble" model, 60 x 32 x 20. Nothing fancy, just a nice solid unit.
The first of two Trane XB90 furnace units, this one mounted in the attic to serve the 2nd floor. (The other one will be located in the crawlspace to serve the 1st floor.)
Laundry "room" rough-ins.
A closer look at the opening that will house the lovely built-in bookshelves under the stairs.
That white tube sticking out of the ground is the water wellhead. At some point in the not too distant future, the boys will drop a 1 HP variable speed submersible pump down the shaft (to about 300 ft), run a 3/4" pipe line to a tank in the crawlspace, and we'll be all set.
