Tom Hobbs and Logan arrived at 7:30 bearing a gift: the Venmar AVS E15 heat recovery ventilation (HRV) unit, which, though cute and small, doesn’t stop it from being quite expensive.  The guys spent the day running / connecting / insulating duct work.  Mid-morning the First Corporation 8VMB air handler unit was delivered.  That’s where the air conditioning (cold air) will come from during the two weeks in August that it is needed here in Vermont and also where hot air can be generated should the radiant floor heating need supplementing.  Mr. Jonsered and I had to have a serious talk with a tree that snapped off during yesterday’s winds and fell across the driveway.  Tom Morrisey arrived at 8:15 and we spent the day putting up and wiring ceiling boxes in the living / dining room, kitchen, upper hall, master bedroom, and walk thru closet.  Many decisions on the fly about where lights will be installed.  Somehow things look different in the flesh than they do on paper… Ran out of boxes late afternoon.
