[QUOTE="Snattlerake, post: 3832012, member: 44288"] Instead of one circuit for the plumbing, I would install a manifold with individual shut off valves and an electric main shut off valve that can be operated by water bugs sending a signal to the main valve to close in case of leaks around sinks, tubs, toilets. The driveway will have a separate manifold under it with circulating warm water for ice prevention or removal. I would have a full basement that nobody has in Oklahoma except those who can afford them to be constructed correctly. My basement would have a drive in door that is not obvious for loading and unloading of machines, material, furniture, etc. The basement would have a living area, gaming area, indoor range, and a full kitchen. It would have a large tornado shelter with a secret room for arms and booolits. I do NOT like houses that are ostentatious on the outside. I do like functionality and landscaping with plants and architecture like this. [ATTACH type="full" width="662px"]291952[/ATTACH] My house would have at least 6 inch walls and either roped with MX or full conduit for electrical. I have and love a whole house generator so that is a priority. I would have uplights and downlights installed outside for the burglars to see they cannot get in. Every door would be steel but nicely appointed for asthetic purposes, wifey. I would have a whole house fan for those three nice days we have in April and two in December. I hate open floor plans because there is no privacy and the noise is horrendous. I would have a MacIntosh sound system configured throughout the house controllable by remotes or wall pads so I could listen to music or watch TV wherever I was. I would run a POTS line, CAT 6 cable, a COAX, and a Multimode fiber to every receptical. I would make every receptical a dual with a USB port next to the regular receptical. The attic would be fully floored with a attic elevator for storage. It will be 24 inches thick and insulated. Ya done got me started. I aint even gotten to the garage. [/QUOTE]
