What derelicts will do for a few extra bucks.

I just did a foreclosure property yesterday and when I got to the basement, I seen that all of the copper piping was stripped clean. Not a single supply pipe in sight except for a 3 to 4 inch crimped nipple at all the mechanical connections.

My fine friend MIKE covered this already I think and answered all your questions. I just wanted to make it clear again that it is not 30" on each side of the interior panel....it is 30" or width of the panel...which ever is greater and in most all cases 30" is greater....

Just needed to make sure that was CLEAR......

If you are in a flood area FEMA rules say the AC must be above the flood plane, at the same height as the finished floor. I am sure that is what Gerry is thinking about in Clearwater. The water heater needs to be up there too. That is important when it is in a garage in a stemwall house where the garage floor is below "flood". Usually we see a blocked up pad with a concrete poured surface. It happens when they build the house.
