Guardian meeting, bathtub and the fireplace

Today, we met with the Guardian rep on site and decided on the locations for the COAX, Data, Phone, HDMI, and Central Vac ports. It took around 50 mins to cover all three floors. we have chosen 3 ports (2 cable and 1 data) in the  basement, 2 ports (cable + data) in the 2nd floor and 5 ports in the first floor (cable + 2 data + 2 phone). With the upgraded networking panel that we have chosen, we can interchange the phone and data ports. The networking panel will be placed in the mechanical area, behind the media room wall. We have also taken two media closets, one in the family room closet underneath the stairs and the other behind the media room wall, in the mechanical area. 

For the central vac system, we are getting 3 outlets in the 2nd floor, 4 outlets in the first floor and 2 outlets in the basement. The central vac unit will be installed in the garage. From what I have heard, there will be an outlet in the unit itself which we can use to vaccum the garage and cars. we wanted two hoses, but the package that we have taken comes with only one hose. We will probably buy another one separately after we close.

moving on to other updates....the HVAC installation and the electric wiring was happening full fledged at the house today. All cabling and plumbling work including the HVAC and Central vac should mostly be done by the end of this week or by Monday at the latest. The Fireplace and bath tubs were also installed today. It's a little slow this week, but I think that the construction pace will pick up starting next week again after the drywall installation. I will be a busy person again.
