Basement Circuitry

When we first moved into the house, back in 2010, it was set up as a 2 family home.  It had an old fuse panel that desperately needed upgrading.   This was one of the first projects we hired out for.  Not that exciting, but necessary.  


We've since upgraded even further, what with the solar installation, but that is another post for another day.

We're in Hot Water!

Just a little note from the Mister:

By far the most insanely frustrating task I have ever attempted as a homeowner is repairing leaking old water pipes and shutoffs. Finally, after a couple of challenging days and many failed attempts at properly sweating a solder joint (I soldered entire sections only to find several leaks and to have to deconstruct the whole thing), I have successfully replaced 3 elbows, 2 Ts, a ball valve with drain, and a copper sleeve to join two butt ends of 3/4" tube. What a relief to have the water working again!
