"A home's plumbing system, with its tangle of pipes appearing here and disappearing there, can be daunting..."
From Library Journal A home's plumbing system is generally "out of sight, out of mind" because it works reliably with little input or effort from the homeowner. When things finally do go wrong, however, the result is often an expensive, messy, and disruptive job. Henkenius, a master plumber and frequent contributor to Popular Mechanics magazine, has written a colorful title that is probably the best do-it-yourself guide to plumbing projects big and small. Nearly every plumbing scenario is addressed, from cleaning drains and replacing faucets to installing a bathtub and replacing pipes; the clear instructions are supplemented with excellent color illustrations and photos. A wealth of general plumbing information and definitions provides beginners with the background needed so they can evaluate their plumbing problem and not get in over their heads. The only thing better than owning this book would be to have Henkenius there to hold one's hand. An essential public library purchase. Copyright 2002 Reed Business Information, Inc.
Illustrations are very helpful: The book fulfilled all my requirements for fixing plumbing at home. The pictures are wonderful for the average person and tips are great. For once I have a book that is so very helpful in every way.
