Well, yesterday sure was a busy day.
- Painting
- Water heater installation
- Shower enclosure measurement
- Etc.
Yours truly was busy writing up an article covering Sarama Resources while the following work was going on inside the unit…
It’s pretty warm/hot in the Philippines all year round, so I wouldn’t say having access to a water heater is absolutely critical, but it’s still nice to have for showers.
Here’s what the shower looked like just prior to the upgrade.
And now after — I’ve tried out the following setup just once so far, and luckily, I’m very happy with the initial results.
As mentioned in an earlier post, I went with a cheaper “no name” rainfall shower set, and wasn’t really sure what to expect… but everything is AWESOME, again, thus far…
I don’t think I got the color I was quite looking to match with the paint, but oh wellz, close enough…
The painting crew worked hard all day and did an excellent job; I made sure to provide them plenty of water and food, too.
Here’s a before shot of the walls (magnified by the harsh “yellow” lighting, but I wanted to emphasize the yellowness of how things used to look).
And an after photo (accentuated with much cooler daylight LED lighting).
I’m aiming to re-paint the bathroom as well, sometime next week so that I can eliminate the yellowness from my apartment entirely, heh.
Baboy Inc (aka FI Fighter Studios) is slowly taking shape and coming together…
- A/C and floor fan combo for cooling… Check!
- Wi-fi (super fast 100 Mbps fiber plan)… Check!
- Water heater for hot showers… Check!
- White LED lights… Check!
- Repainting (entire unit sans bathroom)… Check!
- New dining table/workstation + chairs… Check!
- Etc.
Fight On!
