With a little luck, installation will take place shortly after Labor Day.
Pneumatic?
That surprises me.
Straight gearing or cables would be much more economical. What's the advantage?
My home's central stairwell is too narrow for a conventional elevator. This pneumatic model is a bit more expensive than a conventional unit, but it's the right diameter for the stairwell, does not require a machine room, or a pit to be dug in the cellar floor.
