Cisterns are large water storage tanks and they can be used for a variety of different things. Some are used for irrigation, while others contain potable water that can be tapped during dry spells. Some municipalities have even invested large amounts of money in cisterns as a fire-fighting measure. You might have seen one while inspecting a home but didn’t quite know what to make of it. To find out more about them how they are inspected, check out our new article on cisterns.

Hey all
I just finished an article on fiberglass insulation. In it you can learn about the history of fiberglass, how it is made, its strengths and weaknesses as an insulator, associated hazards, and the insulation alternative cellulose.
I hope this is useful!
