Around The House - Tip of The
Month
For a quick fix on copper pipe, small leaks, keep handy an easy repair kit. All
that is needed is a hose clamp and a small piece of firm rubber, such as small
section of garden hose. Simply insert the rubber around the leak and clamp. It
will save you from having to drain the system, until you have more time on your
hands. The clamp and rubber section of hose helped me out of a few jams,
especially if you don't have copper or solder on hand at the cabin, it could
save the weekend! Remember: clamp and rubber, plus screwdriver. |
