Zinsco

Speaking of dryer vents..... I have always wondered "why on Earth" code officials allow for "vertical dryer" vents....

All it takes is for someone who doesn't like to change out their lint trap, and fires can easily be started.... I have actually inspected some homes that have had problems and clogging with vertical vents.

Doesn't make sense....

And since the "original" topic was ZINSCO... Any panel I come across that says ZINSCO or FEDERAL PACIFIC, I write them up!!!! Let the Electricians sort it out........

I am not "risking" a house fire over these.... maybe they should be put to the test on the show, mythbusters.
