Lake Austin Renovation Project - Brass Buttons

This week marks significant progress at the Brass Buttons House, with both mechanical and plumbing systems taking shape.

The mechanical subcontractor has begun laying out the air conditioning and heating system, which is set to feature a three-zone design for maximum efficiency. By carefully determining the supply and return grill placements, shaft locations, and thermostat positions, the team is ensuring that the system will provide optimal climate control throughout the home. This thoughtful approach reflects the project's commitment to both comfort and sustainability, aligning with energy efficiency.

Meanwhile, the plumbing team has been diligently trenching the foundation to accommodate the relocated washer and dryer. This groundwork paves the way for new plumbing installations, including hot and cold water lines and floor drains. These additions not only enhance the functionality of the home but also demonstrate the planning required to seamlessly integrate changes into the existing structure.

As these systems are carefully brought to life, the Brass Buttons House continues its transformation into a sophisticated and well-equipped living space. This week's developments highlight the collaborative effort between specialized trades, bringing the design vision closer to reality.
