A Leak Can Prevent A Leak The cast iron piping systems used for early heating systems used hub and spigot joints that were made tight with a rust joint. Jute or cotton packing was tamped into the hub around the pipe, then a mixture of iron filings, sal ammoniac, and sulfur was puttied into the joint. This would harden into a cold weld, making the joint leakproof. Variations of the joint compound were used, one version using urine in the mix. It was found, by on-the-job experiments, that human urine made superior joints!

Gremlins under your kitchen sink? Don't worry - we've come across it all. Including this beauty that Kolton recently discovered. It was a tough sell to explain to this homeowner why that painters tape wasn't going to hold up.

We happily fixed up this situation and can sleep better knowing this client is not going to have any further leaking issues with this fixture! #MBsm...allbusiness #WPGsmallbusiness #plumbing #heating #boilers See more
