Sanitary Wares
Filed under: Author:
Karen is still in Vietnam. I met up with Jackson in the morning to go and purchase sanitary wares (for the toilets) as well as things for the kitchen. We also went to buy the lightings.
To summarize, total damage of the day is $6600. Here's the breakdown:
I've spent $2900 in the sanitary wares shop.
I've spent $1750 in the lighting shop.
I've spent $1950 for the air-conditioning system - Sanyo Non-Inverter System-3 with 3 ticks in Energy Savings.
Total $6600. I didn't know it will end up this figure. Pure coincident. Anyway, Chinese love the number 6 because we have common Chinese phrase such as 六六大顺 which means very successful, etc. It was a very last minute decision (something I always do, and something Karen's always not comfortable with) to buy a storage water heater instead of instant heaters as agreed earlier. Reason: The rainshower head. Jackson told me regardless of which floor you stay, the normal HDB water pressure is not able to fully utilize the rainshower head. He added that even if the pressure is good enough, my instant water heaters will not produce hot water fast enough for that. So, in conclusion, if I'm very lucky, I will get cold "rain water" if I go for rainshower head and instant water heater. So? Storage water heater lor.

I have bought square-shaped downlights for my L-boxes. Altogther 40 of such. Each $30. Total $1200. I also choose some simple lights for my kitchen, toilets and store room.

Some of the things I bought from sanitary wares shop were:
- Baron Water Closets (WC) better known as toilet bowls. Each is $310.
- Baron Basin for my mum's toilet
- A nice amber gloss glass basin for my toilet
- Toilet accessories (Mirrors, towel racks, toilet roll holders)
- Hand-rails for my mum's toilet (she has weak legs...these will help her)
- Joven 25L storage water heater
- Rain shower head for my toilet (love it!)
- Basin for my kitchen (with a nice soap dispenser... cool. I've chosen a matt finish instead of gloss)
Take a look at what I've bought! (I've managed to find some of their pictures in the internet) :)

I've chose my paints also for the rooms. Here're my choices. Take a look at an artist's impression how my kitchen will look :) My kitchen cabinet should be like the below, except that I've decided not to suspend the cabinet. Reason is since my maid do cooking daily, a suspended cabinet will be more prone to wear-and-tear than a cabinet that sit on top of a concrete base.
