We have Air-Con!

What is this gadget ?



It's a hydraulic lift to get the condensers upstairs!



The air handling units

Ductwork

The next step...getting the condensers up to the roof, from the first floor...

Hanging the air handling units in the ceiling space

above the ensuite area

and above the kitchen pantry

The condensers sitting on the roof top...

...occupying the best spot with an awesome view of the city! 
If only we have a rooftop terrace! The view from here is amazing!



Getting the ductwork within the posistruts

involves a bit of hard work
