Hello everyone!
As some users have requested before, I’m now starting a new thread with the current planning of our detached house, which is about to be finalized.
These are the preliminary drawings for the building permit / planning permission application, and I have one last chance to review them and point out any issues.
It still seems to me that there is less than 1.20m (4 feet) of space between the two wardrobes in the dressing room. Or am I seeing this wrong? Apparently, the rooms on the left and right were overlooked and not adjusted accordingly.
Two Velux ceiling spotlights are still planned to illuminate the upper floor hallway.
In the basement, on the right side in the upper room, a window similar to the one on the left basement side is an option.
We still haven’t decided on the T30 fire-rated door to the garage, even though it is shown in the plans. Most likely, for safety reasons and the limited use of the kitchen at the other end of the house, we will eventually forgo it.
User 11ant pointed out that the right window in child’s room 2 is suboptimally positioned. However, this could still be changed after submitting the building permit / planning permission application. Our architect thinks moving the window to the left would negatively affect the house’s exterior appearance. We’ll have to see about that.

So you shouldn’t just calculate the water savings, but also consider how quickly something like that becomes annoying.You are right. That’s exactly what we want to do. Since the expert said yesterday that something like this doesn’t cost much, it would be interesting to know if you consider such a price normal.

R.Hotzenplotz5 Jul 2018 09:41One thing I forgot to mention: we installed a separate water line, separate from the main house system, for the two outdoor faucets. The pipe between the first and second faucet is over 10m (33 feet) long. When asked about the issue of Legionella bacteria, the expert said this is normal and that the company did a good job with the pipe separation. We were advised to simply put a sign on the second outdoor faucet saying "non-potable water." Have you ever seen something like this?

When asked about the Legionella issue, the expert said this is normal and the company did a good job with the pipe separation. They told us to just put a sign on the second outdoor faucet saying "not drinking water." Have you ever seen something like this?We were advised against it because of the potential issues. Either put up a sign that children wouldn’t understand, or regularly run water whether you need it or not. However, in our case, the savings are minimal.
At the moment, I get my water from the well across the street and thus catch up on the latest neighborhood news every evening.

Just have it installed, and if it’s not needed, it can be switched off.
