Day 242 - Fireplace installation

Monday, December 5, 2005

The fireplace arrived today. This is a photo of Randy, one of the the installers at work inside, fastening the chimney in place with strapping. Unfortunately, they only had a 20' section of the chimney, and needed to get another 10' piece to complete the installation. In addition, they were also missing the the propane field conversion kit. They expect to be back on Wednesday or Thursday to complete the install.

While the fireplace installers were fastening the chimney inside, Dave and Charles were covering up the chimney box outside. Here you can see Dave "hanging around", after putting the last piece of plywood on the chimney.


Electricians have been busy, wiring away. This gang of 5 switches is by the front door. Lots of switches!!! Let's see if I can remember what they are all for: inside foyer, outside door, garage lights, eave plugs. Okay - that's only 4 so I am missing one.



This is the view out of basement window looking towards the lake. The wide bars are the grilles in the window and the X is the scaffolding that's in place at the front of the house.
