NTUC Home Services 6788 8788

Date:  Feb 2, 2016

NTUC Home Service Hotline:  6788-8788

Thank you my friend Chester for recommending me this.

This is a handy number that every one should keep at home.

If you have any problem with the electrical system at home, normally you will call the contractor and hope his electrician is around to help you to fix the problem.

But, so close to Chinese New Year, you might have problem finding one.

So, we picked up the phone and call.

You don’t need to be a NTUC member to call this number.  Anyone can call.  And it has 90-day warranty, whatever it means.

They are like superman.  They will fix every thing for you.  Of course supplied by different vendors.

Look at their whole list.

So, yesterday my wife called the number.

Our electrical ON-Off switch is spoiled.  She bought a new one from Hardware store for $7.90.

The hotline says it is very close to Chinese New Year so it may takes some time to find.  30 minutes later, a guy called and says he can make it on 9:30am the next day.

And the guy came to fix and replace it.

At one point, the screw holder was broken, so, he went downstairs to take his drill.  And make a new hole.

Spent about 20 minutes and he got it replaced.

Nice and new.

Good workmenship.

And the charges are $43.  Wow!  That is cheap.

The workmanship is $25 and the transport is $18.

And this is a company from High Land Electrical Co at North Bridge Rd.

My wife called to Brighthouse to ask for assistant, they quoted $75 without material.  

So you compare, the service from vendors of NTUC Home Service is nice!

And the transport fee tariff is published.  So, they cannot over charge you.

The Storm door is on

I have finished placing the storm door that my neighbor donated to the project and it turned out very well. After leaving the door in a closed position with the window on the door open and the other two windows open in the greenhouse I checked the inside temp and in the direct afternoon sun with outside temps at 103 degrees, the inside temp jumped to 115 degrees and more later in the afternoon. Way to hot for any plants to survive. I have ordered a gable mounted attic fan that is solar powered and will install it in one end of the greenhouse to help with air flow and temperature. I am scouring craigslist fror a good used Swamp Cooler to use in the greenhouse as well...hopefully I will find one soon. Even with a relative humidity of 50% I should be able to drop the temp 10-15 degrees on a hot day, and with low pressure water misting maybe even a few degrees more.

 Here are some pics of the greenhouse as it stands now after several weeks worth of work. I still need to place the substrate / bedding for the floor in the greenhouse and then I can start building my aeroponics system.





More updates to follow once I receive the attic fan, this has been alot of fun to put together.
