You also may avoid his racket by remembering to turn the faucet off slowly. - Almost any pipe will pound when water flows through it under pressure if the pipe is not properly supported. Make sure that all water pipes are secure.

Wall Coverings Should Be Washable

About once every six and a half years the average person gets a terrific urge to redecorate either the kitchen or the bathroom. * If you have sufficient chiacter you can beat down this impulse and go back to sleep, but if it gets too bad then here are 2 few items of interest about different wall coverings. The best wall covering for either kitchen or bath is one that is waterproof, will not hold dirt and can be cleaned repeatedly without damage. You'll find that linoleum fills this bill very nicely| and so will oilcloth. Either of these materials can be attached with iinoleum cement and are not difficult to apply. . If this idea does not appeal to you then maybe you would like tileboard, metal tile or plastic tile. Tileboard comes in sheets and is cemenied to the wall much the

Children like to hold on to the dirt they collect, but a warmair furnace likes to share it with you, your home and anything else that might get in the way. The dirt that a warm-air heating system tosses up through the registers does not come directly from the fire. If it did. you would be in the market for a new house. What happens iz that the dirt and dust from the furnace gets into the basement and then is drawn into the air chambers of the furnace. After this it's just a mattér of time before it gets in your hair.
