This is a homeowners version of “Can You Fix the Drip?”  They tied a string from the shower head to drain. Ingenious! Never mind that there is mold everywhere in the shower.

FireplacePostcard.gif The ASHI Reporter “Never & Always” article (January 05) brought back old memories. Never be looking up the chimney when you open the damper. Here is photo of a new home that came equipped with its own firewood. A 2-foot section of framing lumber fell out of the chimney when I opened the damper. This was moments after the superintendent said I would find nothing wrong with his custom home.

Is the switch for the light or to turn the water off?
