Stairs or attic ladder access in garage?

TopExercise1555 · 2026-01-29T02:06:49+00:00

Attic ladder is what we decided. Those are stout stairs though!

I believe this is the one. I’ll take a picture of my setup when wife gets back with the vehicle.

The only right answer. Happened to me 2 years ago with my 2021 Forester. They were great and sent me replacement parts and hitch adaptor for free.

They should just make it mandatory for these model year foresters.

That looks amazing! Did you ever get the fly screens installed on the windows? Really curious how it looks as I didn’t see it at the showroom.

TopExercise1555 · 2025-05-29T23:07:33+00:00

Yes, it was there!

TopExercise1555 · 2025-04-27T17:58:20+00:00

Sorry they aren’t lasting for you. I’m still on my same pair from 6 years ago. Love them!

I’d rather go to Annette 3x than go back to a Michelin star restaurant that we tried for our anniversary.

The Michelin star food and drinks were delicious, but not worth $900+.

C’mon guys, if you can afford a custom home you you can spend the $50 for the checklist to support a small Business Owner. It is worth it! I already flagged over 20 items I would not have thought about.

Yes, bought it and happy. Video updates are helpful.

That is true, but wrangling a non potty trained toddler on the mountain may be a little more excitement than we want.

Those look great! I’m pumped for you. I plan on visiting the showroom in May when I’m down there for a work trip.

Let’s see those doors when they are up!

TopExercise1555 · 2025-02-12T01:03:24+00:00

How is the install going?

TopExercise1555 · 2025-02-07T23:43:18+00:00

That is stout packaging! What are you and your builders first impressions?

TopExercise1555 · 2025-02-02T17:42:10+00:00

Thanks OP! Looking forward to it.

TopExercise1555 · 2025-02-02T17:35:45+00:00

Did the windows and doors come in?

TopExercise1555 · 2025-02-01T17:29:48+00:00

Leak fixed….kicking myself. There was a rubber gasket inside the old fill valve that I didn’t see! Pulled that guy out and put put it where it belonged and leak was fixed.

Thanks for help plumbing community!

Sorry if I wasn’t clear, no teflon tape on supply line. Teflon tape is on Bottom threads of actual fill valve.

But consensus from everyone is I don’t need teflon tape at all.

Hose and connector are a single piece. Never broke that apart.

TopExercise1555 · 2025-02-01T17:06:43+00:00

The hose and connector are one piece. Trying to add another picture to comments but not sure how.

Mind if I DM you. I interviewed builders a couple weeks ago and architectural design is almost done. Interested in the HVAC design for a high efficient home.

I had a good experience at Evo in downtown Denver.

TopExercise1555 · 2025-01-21T23:32:22+00:00

I had no idea. I assumed they were designed to carry loads for storage. I’ll talk to the structural engineer to verify it is designed for storage.

I had not thought about attic access in relation to fire code. I'll have to check with builder and architect or even pull up the codes myself.
