GUARDIAN MEETING

I'm very proud of us. We stuck with the basics. We got the fireplace mount, 4 additional outlets, extra key pad (tried to get it free), and window sensor for the egress window. Were getting the motion detector for pets under 65 lbs and 3 months of monitoring for free (K M, I tried to get the 6 months, but no dice).

I will admit we thought about the surround sound system, but for $1000, we decided not to. Plus Daniel has been looking at sound bars, so that's his little project. He goes to www.crutchfield.com for this, just in case you wanted to know. Plus when we finish the basement, we'll look into the surround sound.

When we met at the model it was beginning to snow heavy so we didn't see any progress on the foundation. I might stop by tomorrow after work. I almost called my sales rep to see if there was any progress.

  1. Glad your Guardian meeting went well...it can be overwhelming. As for where Daniel is looking for sound bars...I think you meant www.crutchfield.com

  3. What is the fireplace mount? We tried to get an outlet on the mantle of the fireplace but they said they couldn't do it.

  4. RH...do you have a blog? Did you ask them for an outlet on the actual mantle or on the wall above the mantle. Most everyone who has talked about that (including me) means that there is an outlet on the wall above the mantle for you to mount a TV above the mantle. The cost for this is included in the Guardian price, Ryan takes care of adding it to the electrical plans (I think).

  5. Yes the fireplace mount is extra for Guardian and Ryan Homes charges a fee to have an electrical added also above the fireplace...

  6. Yeah RH, what everyone said is correct. We're trying to set up our meeting with the electrician now.

  7. @BD - I do have a blog (that I really need to update) Home Sweet Ryan Home!

    @Everyone else, we asked for it to be in the actual mantle (my parents have this) but they weren't able to do it. We did get it just above the mantel though. Thank you!!
