List of Defects - Outstanding & Mini Updates

Lazy to Edit the Html so just listing the defects that i saw in my house yesterday.

We spent our afternoon @ Soma(ID) office for 3hrs plus yesterday and managed to talk some things through. We are going to start our renovation on 16th Oct 2006. This week going to chase the HDB officer to do up the outstanding things for me. We also went to see some bedding and furnitures around his office and i took a liking on some of items we saw.

The shop website not up yet so cant see anything! lol www.ackerman.sg
Took the liking on the black frame and drawers pull out. Damage - $1200
Beds - Simmons - $2000 plus , King Coil - $700, Setra - $1000 plus

He told us some stories which i dont know how true but magic coil is a local brand and the boss was from King Coil. Maybe will head to IMM to check it out on the bed frames and beds..

We went to Cellini Funitures also next to my ID office.
Due to Space constraint, we only can look in 2 seater type or L-shape sofa..

I think price looks ok and this is what we saw we like very much~


Abit low for me but quite comfortable - $1K plus


Not very soft or hard when sitting, but the 2 seater is within our range - $700

Will look around for similar type of furnitures.

Oh yeah do remember to apply for the Power supply. We didnt get to used any water for yesterday. Lol. It was fun when it was "Free"

Thanks to Gendon advise on the water pressure also. Hope she dont mind me putting the information here.

To check the water pressure you can try this:
- Check all taps, pipes & piping joints for leaks & drips when u turn on the tap.
- For each tap, turn it on to the max. U should get full & hard gushing stream of water.
- If any of the taps is fitted with the mesh-type or tiny holes water saver filter, u can try to see if can pry it off temporarily. Then turn on the tap to the max to check if water pressure is strong.
- If u turn on the tap to max and u get the water flow/stream something like half-way u turn the tap, it's an indication that it may be low water pressure. And u need to make sure that the main water tap head at the riser just outside your unit, is turned on to the fullest.
- It's best to check before & after you change the pipings and tap fittings.

To make your shopping of water heaters much easier, u can check with the plumber first after he tested the water pressure. A good skilled plumber knows best

I was quite worried initially bcos I got a top-most floor unit. Heard so much of low water pressure for high or top-most floor units. The before & after changing of existing pipings to stainless steel type, the water pressure is still the same full & hard gushing stream of water. Only a slight decrease of water pressure when using the instant water heater so far.
