  This is a review of the plumbing services of the modern and not-so-modern home. The DIY enthusiast will find illustrated, step-by-step instructions for the care and maintenance of a plumbing system and for such projects as plumbing-in an automatic washing machine, installing a shower or bidet, converting a lavatory suite from high to low-level operation, and providing a garden water supply. The book is also intended for the householder who would like to understand the functioning of domestic hot and cold water and drainage systems, how they should be maintained and how they might be improved. Those who are not DIY-minded should also find it useful in giving an insight into the workings of kitchen and bathroom equipment, and in assisting with discussions with a plumbing contractor regarding replacements, extensions or improvements.
