So you want to be the general contractor on your project? That generally is a very bad idea unless you have a very good knowledge of the construction industry. Many homeowners think they can be their own GC to save money, but what many end up discovering is it costs them more in the long run. A good GC will know how to find the right contractors, make sure they are giving good prices, and know what to look out for on the job site. If you don't know any of those things and just blindly start hiring contractors you stand a much better chance of getting screwed.roofing contractors
If you are really serious about building your dream home the first thing you need to do is try to find a good architect. Do some looking around until you find one you really like, and one that has done several houses of the style you like. Then you can talk with the architect about what GC/Builder you might want to use, and you can start the process of reviewing them.

I have been reading about underground or "earth sheltered" houses online for the past couple days after watching all three lord of the rings movies in succession...

I have found lots of advantages to building underground:
-less materials (but lots of concrete)
-stable temperatures year round
-uses less energy to heat and cool
-blends in with landscape
-tornado resistant, fire resistant (built mainly of concrete)
-soundproof

The only disadvantage I've read about is controlling the humidity and moisture levels inside the home. A few sites I visited claimed this could be controlled by ventilation tubes going up to the surface.

Very similar to my layout... your room is wider.

You'll find that the lenses need to be right above the head of the front row. Then build a riser for the 2nd row behind the projector.Always try to consult any roofing contractors in your area

Will you be able to put doors or access panels into the boxed out corners? If so, use them to access the space behind the screen. And the other one can be used for an in-wall equipment rack.

Some of the new houses in my neighbourhood (new ones) list as a sales pitch the geothermal heating.
We have an old house but we considered using this system. We tried to get an estimate from a local contractor, and we have been told that it's worth it if we think adding new additions, like an inground pool.
With the geothermal system we may be able to keep the jacuzzi and the pool heated, as well as having airconditioning in the house in the summer time.

Has anybody used the geothermal system?

It is eco-friendly technology but personally I prefer choosing to use solar technology.

Unfortunately, the minimum requirement for the federal tax credit on central A/C units is 14 SEER for package systems and 15 SEER for split systems.  The Puron system is still a great choice environmentally speaking - just not in the eyes of the IRS.

We'd love to know your experience with the unit.  Anything you share would be beneficial to others comparing similar units.

Yes....13 SEER is too old version that cannot work efficiently at this day.
