That vertical grout line isn’t central to the flush plate 😞

How to 'option in' home automation in future?
Pocster replied to Andeh's topic in Networks, AV, Security & Automation
I still think cctv is the way to go as it solves many ‘pir’ issues . Also future wise you could add face recognition and then “ emotion recognition “. If SWMBO.location == lounge & SWMBO.mood == angry & SWMBO.carrying == knife then lockdown() Sad thing is I’m not joking ! - this is what I want to do . The fun will be endless 😁👍 THIS is future proofing!! -

Yeah I tried pir with humidity . It’s better . But if SWMBO has a real long soak in the bath ( and falls asleep ) lights can still turn off . I did suggest a camera but SWMBO …… -

Yeah that can happen also . Especially true for my bathroom . Pir turns lights on but if you are in the shower can’t detect you ! - so lights go off eventually. I did suggest to SWMBO a camera would solve it ; but she wasn’t sold on the idea …. -

I use HomeSeer pc software to control z wave Qubino switches . I also have z wave aeotec sensors ( so pir , temp , light etc. ) . One thing I have noticed is that pir over a large area is difficult ( say to keep lighting on ) . I’m going to change a pir to an ip camera . Then the theory is I can setup zones in blu iris for lighting rather than multiple pirs trying to cover an area . -
In a marble stone yard a guy told me Italian granite I.e expensive is usually from China but machined in Italy just so the premium can be added . If you say “ Italian granite “ you would naturally assume completely from Italy !! - and pay a substantial premium . Is this true ? Or just a myth ! 😁

And the rest ……

Larger ( don’t want the garden to look like it has a full-size sink in it ) https://www.victorianplumbing.co.uk/cubetto-wall-hung-small-cloakroom-basin-1th-330-x-290mm?campaign=googlebase&gclid=CjwKCAjww8mWBhABEiwAl6-2Re03fsTYJtPNUfCAmBpq5GOhzwxLaK7TGnqf07M_f_2sQqk_VaH25xoCsl4QAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

Yeah but it might be ok for just hand washing . Not sure how the taps plumb ( based on the photo ) . Where’s the feeds ? ; all jammed up under the basin ??
-
Maybe ? https://www.victorianplumbing.co.uk/rondo-wall-hung-small-cloakroom-basin-1th-365-x-180mm?campaign=googlebase&pagetype=shopping&PS2PVV1=7704&gclid=CjwKCAjww8mWBhABEiwAl6-2Rc0SzEPux0x-Qdh5e0sX_0VXkQ9mD2IIdwitsTMYMwXT2oqmcB-OJRoCARYQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

I could do that for sure . Just got to find the granite ! 🙄😁
-
Me thinks ( knows ) SWMBO won’t like your link . Sink for washing hands after gardening / cooking on bbq ; or just rinsing off blood from local corpse .
-
Perhaps free standing taps ? . I can’t plumb through the 1 metre thick concrete wall I made ! I think maybe a better option - also no pipework visible . As Hep2o isn’t uv resistant just lag hot and cold ??
-
Was thinking that . But it’s for SWMBO so therefore minimal cost ! 😁🍺🍺🍺
-
What kind of wall mounted taps do I want ? . The wall is tiled with split face tiles so not even 🙄
-
Was planning to hep20 to the sink . But Hep2o can’t be exposed outside can it ? Also the taps will have to be wall mounted - that means my pipework will be visible !!!! . That’s probably something I don’t want unless it looks unnaturally neat ( which it won’t )
-
SWMBO has more plans for me ! Outdoor sink ( hot and cold feed ) I was thinking maybe a Belfast type sink ? . Need to wall mount it I.e it’s free standing . Any suggestions???
