Re: Homeowners Versus Contractors
I worked making industrial roller chain, and our plant manager's motto was: We lose money per foot but make it back in volume.jumper said:Fixed costs decrease as a percentage with increased gross.

Re: Any reason I can't put a Gorton 2 at the TOP of a riser instead of the bottom?

Re: Hot water vent (!!) on steam main
Higher pressures lead to wet steam from the density of the steam being forced out of the boiler which may cause the water line in the boiler to drop lower than usual.
This isn't true, but I liked the rest of your response
Maybe the OP can blur out the offending vent so that it won't be identifiable and will be able to stay private!
Re: Homeowners Versus Contractors

@trivetman yes the oddness really shines through when we say one thing out of one side of our mouth and do other things with the other side of our mouths; we are a fickle bunch of people- trying to earn people's respect in any way fathomable.

Re: Plumbing archaeology
Your getting a lot of sinkers from that job!Exactly! And you never know when a whole section of lead pipe will come in handy. Reminds me of the old murder mystery board game "Clue." Colonel Mustard did it, in the Library, with the Lead Pipe.
