2 months of work
Now I realise most of you could have done this in a weekend,but due to my disability it took me much longer. The following pics are of the new copper pipe I installed to replace the crap galvanised which was plugged all to hell.
We took baths for 2 months by filling pots and bowls and dumping them in the tub and never got truly clean. I had initially replaced just the hot line to the kitchen so we could at least have hot water there. You never realise just how nice it is to have a hot shower until you cant!
It was truly a fight against my disease which wants to rule my life. F U MS!! I win!!
heres the main line from the hot tank.
had to replace all the hot lines,including the one to the washing machine and laundry sink.
This pic is of the line to the shower upstairs.
And under the bathroom sink upstairs..
All told there are 3 sinks and the shower,plus the washing machine,plus the main line.
I changed the plumbing slightly and gave the kitchen sink it's supply directly from the main as it was running to the downstairs bathroom (not done yet)first and then over to the upstairs sink. Weird,so it got changed. The rest is just a direct copy of what was already there.
So this was a necessary project and I've had to cut out my Dart time completely in order to conserve my energy. There is still one more project to go,a cement pad outside the kitchen door,but I wil have some help for it and then I can get back on my Dart!
