Bathroom Lighting

1. When it comes to the bathroom, I am trying to combine usages.  I bought on ebay a combination light and exhaust fan.  I will be wiring the function on separate switches so that the fan is only ran when needed.

Light and exhaust fan

1. For over the vanities, I bought fixtures that would use the CF light bulbs without them showing.  That way I could use the standard CFL bulbs and save money on buying the expensive pretty ones.

Toilet

1. I am sure by now, most people have heard of the dual flush toilets with the two buttons.  My word of advise is to get one that have easily distinguishable buttons so there will be no confusion. 
2.  If you already have your toilet in place see about replacing only the tank. You may be able to match it up expecially within the same manufacture.  I did notice the Kohler has a selection 

Note: I am having a heck of a time finding a place to order the Kohler dual flush toilet I picked out locally.  Accourding to the website, Lowe's  or Home depot could supplies these, but when I called the only ones that were listed in their book were the really expesive ones not the $250-$300 model I picked out. LOL  Pressing ahead, I am sure that we will get that worked out before I need them

Radiant Heating

• If this is a new term to you let me explain there are a couple of differnt types of radiant heating.  The most popular being Water or electicity.

1. I am going to choose to use electicity to warm my tile floors in the winter.  It will work like an electic blanket to radiant heat from below the tiles. 
   • Different types -
     1. Mat DYI (home depot),
     2. Mat Custom (meaure and order to fit) remember do not included the area of the toilet
     3. Line clicks are installed at either end and the wire is wound between them
2. The other type has tubes filled with heated water running under the tiles.
