I moved at the end of September, and my new home is getting better and better after nearly four months of employment. Although there are still some small points that need to be adjusted, the overall pattern has been set and basically satisfied, but the so-called decoration is an imperfect project. Indeed, even if the preliminary consideration is comprehensive and the construction is meticulous, there will be some unsatisfactory places. Let's talk about it one by one:
First, the experience of trying out new appliances.
1 Advantages and disadvantages of instant water heater
This decoration boldly used two instant water heaters and three kitchen treasures, and specially modified the circuit to increase the load. The advantages of instant water heater are high speed, convenient temperature adjustment and small installation space; The disadvantage is that the traffic is slightly small. The flow of kitchen baby in the kitchen and washbasin is basically enough, but the shower head for bathing seems to be a little insufficient. My "Feiyu" shower head could not be brought up at all, so I directly installed the shower head with the original water heater, and I always felt uncomfortable. It seems that I installed 1 instant water and 1 water storage in two bathrooms.
2, the use of integrated stove experience
The integrated stove integrates multiple functions such as range hood, gas stove, disinfection cabinet and locker. First, it is beautiful, suitable for the overall sense of my kitchen and saves space; Secondly, the smoke exhaust effect is good, there is basically no odor when cooking, and the items around the integrated stove are kept clean and will not be contaminated with oil; So, this design is safe. As long as the fire exhaust function is started, the exhaust is delayed for 2 minutes after the flameout, and the oil smoke is almost absorbed; It is also very simple to use, and the size of the fire is easy to adjust. The most prominent thing is that it is convenient to clean and scrub. It will be kept clean and tidy after cooking. From the point of practicality and comfort, the overall effect is still very OK.
However, the integrated stove also needs to be improved: the size of the pot is limited, and the larger pot cannot be put in (large steamer); It is not convenient to pick up the wok and shake the dishes when cooking, for fear of bumping; The smoke exhaust pipe occupies a part of the space below the cabinet; Moreover, because it is downdraft, the public flue in the building forms negative pressure, and cooking downstairs will have an odor.
Second, the network cable layout is defective.
When designing the network cable, ports were reserved in the living room and the study room, but when I took the cable, I didn't take two cables from the "cat" respectively, but took the same cable. The study is equipped with a router, which makes the living room have to connect to the router port instead of directly connecting to the "cat", so my IPTV cannot be realized. What a good lesson! ! !
Third, the laundry cabinet should be hung.
Before, the laundry cabinet was made floor-standing, but it was inconvenient to handle it when the water pipe of the washing machine and the washing water were not smooth, and I was worried that the cabinet would be soaked by water leakage. Therefore, the laundry cabinet should be made into a hanging type, and the washbasin can be placed under the cabinet, which is not afraid of water leakage.
Fourth, the more power outlets, the better.
1. Locate the socket as accurately as possible. Although I determined the position of my furniture very early, due to the later adjustment, there are still several sockets blocked by the furniture; There is no need to leave so many sockets behind the TV. It is more practical to put a patch panel with a switch in the TV cabinet.
2. Water heaters and kitchen treasures only need to reserve socket positions and connecting wires, and there is no need to install panels. These are all using leakage protectors.
3. "Sockets with switches" are needed for study computer sockets, washing machine sockets, kitchen microwave ovens, kettles and rice cookers. Restaurant TV and network "cat" need to reserve two double-hole sockets, and the distribution box of network "cat" should be expanded in advance, remember! ! !

Figure: The distribution box of the network "Cat" has not been expanded.
4. There are many benefits to installing "induction lamp" above the kitchen sink, operation desk and washbasin!

Fifth, it is worthwhile to change the floor heating.
1, indoor spring. At the beginning of heating, the main pole of floor heating is hot, but the return pole is not hot, and the indoor temperature is 18℃. After adjustment by DK Xiao Han, it is known that there is gas in the pipeline, which prevents hot water from entering the loop circulation. Open the air in the pipeline with the air release valve on the water separator, and the effect is obviously improved after air release. Now the indoor temperature is about 25℃, the floor is warm, and the children are crawling and running barefoot on the ground, having a good time.
2. Increase storage space. Make full use of the space under the floating window of the living room, master bedroom and guest room where heating was originally placed to make seven groups of cabinets, which are both beautiful and practical, with sufficient storage space and clean and tidy rooms.

Sixth, cleverly arrange the location of the refrigerator.
I like the big kitchen and spacious operation space, but if I put the kitchen in the refrigerator with opposite doors, the space will be much narrower at once. How to find a suitable location for the refrigerator has always been my concern. I have talked about this topic with designers, foremen and hairy crabs, hoping to find a good way through brainstorming.
When the bricklayer went home from work, the foreman and hairy crabs were there. They discussed the location of the refrigerator. They figured out a way for me to make room for the refrigerator in the storage room.
