so i'm an incredibly heavy sleeper, but i'm planning on going to a residential high school after this school year and i'd have to wake up to an alarm clock, does anyone have any suggestions on how to make that easier?
Make sure you get the pipe fittings glued on well, especially if this is a crawlspace or somesuch where you might not detect a new leak quickly. Next time you cut the pipe, glue in a clean-out fitting. You would still need to own, rent or borrow a snake, but having clean-outs every 50 or 100 ft will make that a lot easier.
Actually, I did experience a house fire once. I got all 4 kids out of the house (it was the middle of the night), then me, hubby and neighbor started hosing down the fire before it got any worse and burned the whole building down (condo). At those moments, you really don't care about your stuff, you want to save lives.
