Hi Terry, I am a fan of Fine Woodworking but found your site through Fine Homebuilding. I am a Kiwi living in the North West Pacific, (Republic of Palau,) and wish to build a new home for my wife and family. I have heard mention of flexible, water pipes which are connected from a single source and run to each outlet indipendantly of each other, with no joins so the chance of a leak seems less. I am told there is a ballcock, or some such fitting at one end, so in the event a repair is needed, only the hose to that area is switched off. Where could I see something about it on the web? I propose using steel studs and feel to be able to just run hose through would be quicker, but how does it hold up? What about hot water, I would need to lag it in some way, I guess? Houses on twon water have very low pressure and tank water only in many cases. Your site looks good and I will return to read some more of it later, I liked the articles on the Titanic. I guess you could go of forever with that topic in a plumbing sense! Cheers, Michael. |
