Furnace/Basement

I met with Adam today at the house. There have been some significant changes/additions since my last post. Young's Heating and Cooling installed the Furnace and Ductwork and the framing of the basement looks pretty much complete. Things seem to be moving along steadily, even with the below freezing weather we have had on and off the last couple of months. Below are some pictures I took today. I know they are not the most exciting or glamorous photos but I'm trying to keep everything documented, plus I think it will be cool to compare them with the finished product.
 

Young's installed a Coleman 18 Seer Echelon 2 stage heat pump with a Honeywell Zoning Kit. Adam said Young's was timely, professional and he was very impressed with the way it turned out, all except some vent covers he sent back that didn't meet his standards. :)
 
 
We decided to go ahead and finish off the basement along with the house. We wanted a family/play room for the kids, a spare bedroom, bathroom, the mechanical room, and of course, a wine cellar. The framing is mostly complete so I can now start to picture it. It will be a nice addition to the house I think.
 




 


 
Electrical installation will begin next week and Adam said we should have Drywall installation going by the end of next month. Things are really starting to come together.

  1. Don't worry about the pictures! It'll be good to see how your basement looked before, during, and after the renovation. By keeping track of the process, you'd become more dedicated to the project and will appreciate it more once it's done. There's still quite a bit more work to be done here, though it should only be a matter of time. K\eep us posted!

  2. I love seeing the progress of the renovations of your home. The basement was really done well. They installed the furnace pretty good, huh? I'm glad their service was satisfying. Many thanks for sharing your renovation adventures with us, Tarah! All the best to you! :)

  3. The progress of the installation seem to have gone real well. I gotta say, the service men did quite the job on your basement. I hope they've given you a rundown on safety tips and measures for the furnace and most of the mechanical stuff. I hope to see more of your home renovation projects, Tarah. Kudos! :)
