Did the last cosmetic work on the installation of electric water heater in the bathroom.
The power is still not connected properly and is using a extension cord to turn it in an hour before taking shower. Don't have proper cables to add the switch to the side to turn it on and off (don't need to have it on all the time, since I'm alone and 80L hot water is more than enough to shower a couple of times.
Still not happy about the wall mount, because I'm not sure if I need to reinforce it more or not. But this is a temporary setup and will be taking it with me when we leave.
The damn thing is really heavy and I'm glad I had the hooks perfectly leveled before hanging it on and fill it with water. Total weight is about 120kg when the container is full.
I'm pretty proud of myself doing all the work alone (with some help from the girls when I moved it up at first).

A quotation from Bierce, Ambrose
ARCHITECT, n. One who drafts a plan of your house, and plans a draft of your money; who estimates the whole cost, and himself costs the whole estimate.
Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914?) American writer and journalist
“Architect,” The Cynic’s Word Book (1906)
