aircon ledge window

the aircon ledge window is too small for the hitachi dc inverter aircon compressor! =(

from what i heard at GC and singaporeairconforum, if the kitchen window is opposite the aircon ledge, wooden planks are laid across them and the compressor is delivered through kitchen window onto the planks and then slowly pushed towards the aircon ledge.

however, for my block, the aircon ledge is NOT opposite the kitchen window. Seems like it is impossible to deliver a large compressor to the aircon ledge...

can cover the big u-tube in kitchen?

hmm, wonder if can do a cabinet to cover this thing up???

first official visit to blk 25A

yesterday evening after work, i went there to walk walk, not knowing that the block already opened... then a contractor approached me and offered to bring me to the 4-rm unit he is renovating...

shower spray and pole, mixer tap already installed!


concealed cold and hot water pipes! see the blue and red sticker lines on the wall...

there is a retractable clothes hanger mounted on one wall of the kitchen... if wanna do cabinet there, the hanger will have to be dismantled... what a waste of money!!! maybe can mount it on the ceiling instead??? hmm, gotta ask the contractor...
