Day 47 - almost finished the floor slab

We almost finished the ground floor slab today.

All that is left are a few small pieces to finish around the octagon.

Holes were cut in the boards to allow for all of the waste water pipes, the heating system pipes, and the water supply pipes. What we ended up with is a wooden version of the concrete slabs with pipes sticking out of them, which a lot of the other houses have.

conneting to the district heating ssytem

We dug up our site again excavate two trenches so that a plumber could extend the pipes for the district heating system and the water supply into the house before we put on the ground floor plane.

The entire village is connected to the central wood chip heating system via heavily insulated pipes.

The plumber also brought in the water supply from the water meter at the edge of the property.
