Slow but steady working on two guest pyramid rooms now

Every day a little bit but still...

We managed to put the frame of the rooftop of the second guest room in place so (if not raining) we can go on with welding the pyramid roof frame construction. From the outside it starts to show a second pyramid now already. 

The side window with ventilation and bathroom exhaust fan are in position now. We are waiting for the wooden front door with stained glass inlay we ordered to be promised to arrive this week. 

The day after tomorrow we will get the air-conditioning unit installed. The walls are nearly ready. As a protection of the hand-form brickwork, Phatsamon put a special varnish on the bricks. It's a protection against rain and UV. 

Rockwool Stay Cool isolation (Rt -27) started to be in all the areas that have an outside/inside connection. A 7.5 cm thick isolation that offers us another possibility to keep the inside of the guestrooms comfortable with the air-conditioning and saves a bit energy. It will be an extra layer between the rooftiles and the ceilings, the already 2,5 cm PU isolated flat metal sheet roof and inside the metal stud walls.

I installed a special Hotel energy save switch with key-card connecting the air-conditioning, the shower boiler, electric hair dryer and fans. This needed a special thick copper wire because this 'consumers' use a lot of energy. 

Outside we started with some tiling to be ready for the outdoor condenser unit of the air-conditioning to be placed. 

I worked in the bathroom to place some small walls with glass blocks around the shower place and installed the shower drain and an emergency/floor cleaning drain.

Also the electricity for the fire alarm and emergency light unit now is installed. 

Some pictures give you an idea about the situation of today.
