Would you rather: No dishwasher or no air-con?
Comments (41)Lorraine, even though this is an old post, I thought I would put my two cents in. I’m with you. My husband and I have been married for over 30 years, and he washes the dishes and I dry them, every night. We have our own business and family and are buggered at the end of the day, but this is our time to talk about the day and get ready for tomorrow. Our dishwasher also wasn’t working, apparently it was because we weren’t using it enough. I now use it when we have gatherings or when my daughter decides to cook up a storm! We also only use our aircon when we have had consistently hot days over 35 degrees. I’m in Perth so summer can be hot. However we built our home with solar passive principles in mind, and it definitely makes a difference. So yes I don’t need a dishwasher but an air cooling system does come in handy....See MoreNeed advice to hide the neighbours shed.
Comments (58)Yes the eastern states have been copping it. Snow etc, I am not a fan of cold. In the west has not been as bad, just a bit of a whinger when I think how cold you guys have had it, even Brisbane. I am waiting for those new solar panels with battery storage capacity (tesla) to come down in price in the next few years, before we retire I would like to have them in and paid for....See MoreWall art around an air conditioner?
Comments (14)@newgardener, It's quite a shame that the AC was placed so low on the wall, it would be so hard to sit under it when on, you would get a stiff neck from the cold in no time. It should have been right up below the cornice, then artwork would be simple. If it were me, I'd have it moved up, repair the move and you have your wall back, not particularly an expensive job just a bit messy....See MoreAir-con eyesore!
Comments (15)Thanks, good point that it might need replacing in not too long and could be addressed then. I'll also consider the paint and other options to draw attention away. I'm sure with lots of books on the built in a when they go in, there will be some distracting colour and thinking a white ledge across the mantel to tie in the new built ins on either side ... We had been considering changing stone surround to some painted white panels, but thought stone might be warmer/ more character. I've seen some inspiring pictures in this thread and on houzz. Thanks all!...See Morejulie herbert
