Stainless Copper Solar
I get this question asked many times. Where is the best location to install a Tankless Water Heater? There are advantages and disadvantages to each installation location.
Tankless Water Heaters are used predominantly in Asia and Europe where space is much more valuable than here. It would be a total waste of space to install it inside in Japan for example. The vast majority of manufactures are Asian companies and have designed the tankless water heater for primarily outside installation.
Beside the space saving an outside installation also makes the venting simple. Tankless Water Heaters (TWH) require mostly special venting (Stainless Steel) that can be very pricey. Some very new models are so efficient that can use regular 4" PVC for venting since very little heat is exhausted.
The TWH enclosures are made of aluminum and are therefore rustproof. All the components are really made to withstand the outside environment, heat, rain, etc. They also incorporate a small electric heater to heat the unit's heat exchanger in case of freezing temperature to protect it from cracking and damage.
Should there be a water leak for any reason then an outside installation causes very little damage if any.
The downside of an outside installation is really vandalism and theft as it can potentially be dismounted and disconnected from the water supply.
If installed properly the outside installation is the preferred location. Care should be taken to keep the water lines to and from the heater short and insulated for possible freezing and energy conservation.
Inside Installation
The inside installation can pose venting challenges additional to the added cost of it. As all Tankless Water Heaters condensate provisions must be taken to drain the condensate water and not let it drain back into the heater. This usually is done with a drain tee vent. It is a special vent piece that collects the condensate water and drains it through a small tube. That tube must be connected to a drain.
The heat exchanger in a TWH is the main component of it and the most sensitive. It is stressed the most by repeated heating and cooling and is made of copper or some stainless steel alloy. Its construction is very much like a very small radiator in a car. Water flows through its pipes and it is heated to deliver the hot water.
The condensate water is acidic and if not properly collected and drained will drain onto the heat exchanger and shorten its life significantly. Most manufactures will not warranty the heat exchanger in these kind of situations.
Another point to consider is the amount of oxygen the heater needs for combustion. Tankless Water Heaters unlike regular water heaters need a lot of oxygen when heating. This is because the heat is much more intense to heat the water at it flows through the heat exchanger. The water is heated "instantly".
Some homes have the traditional water heater in a closet inside the home. For a standard water heater the air supply is sufficient but not for a Tankless Water Heater. In these situations there should be a direct venting type tankless water heater used. A direct vent type TWH draws its combustion air from the outside. It has a special double walled vent pipe that allows it to draw air from the outside and exhaust air through the same vent pipe. These units are more expensive than the regular TWH.
Another potential danger in an inside installation is a gas leak. `Any gas leak for any reason will be an added danger. TWHs need a much higher volume of gas and are plumed accordingly. A gas leak can pose a bigger danger.
And of course there is always the potential for a water leak that can be very damaging.
For all the above reasons it is really best to install the TWH outside. Most people are not used to the idea and tend to think the unit will break sooner or not last as long.

Introduction To Oil Rubbed Bronze Faucets
Cutting edge recent design schemes that are preferred among new home builders and owners who are updating, are certain to include the addition of the oil Rubbed Bronze faucet. This kind of tap has the weird ability to mesh seamlessly with the rooms they belong to, and augment, not detract from their feel. The oil rubbed bronze faucet is actually the most hip of all of the new darker finishes.
Even the most conventional of interior designers will want to use the oil rubbed bronze faucet in their decor. Recent popular designs, such as the Early Georgian style, will work very cooperatively with this finish. The look of the oil rubbed bronze faucet is one which will take your breath away. It is not simply an one dimensional flat color ; rather, it's a uniquely many-faceted 3 dimensional finish. Gorgeous flecks of copper shine out from beneath the oil rubbed darkness, and create a warm attention grabbing appearance. This gives the viewer the idea that the householder has chosen true Old World artisan pieces for their decor. Even the most modern of houses can have an aura of authentic workmanship.
The oil rubbed bronze faucet is not something that goes against the grain of contemporary design. To the contrary, these taps will work outstandingly well with any of the more recent decor trends, in any number of different toilets and kitchens. Very hard metals have for a while been favored among interior designers ( bronze particularly ), and now there's simply a new option to choose from! The depth and heat of the oil rubbed bronze faucet can create something like a feeling of love and history that may last for generations to come.
Both new home builders and renovating homeowners alike will be pleased and reassured by the quality and sturdiness of the oil rubbed bronze faucet. These pieces are not simply painted pieces of inexpensive metal. These are true bronze faucets that have undergone a powder process to make the oil rubbed appearance. By selecting the oil rubbed bronze faucet, home designers are choosing a piece of hardware that will not fade or diminish over time . The great thing about warm bronze will last for several years to come, and work with any quantity of developing designs.
Once installed, the oil rubbed bronze faucet will be so loved that design plans will soon move to include all of the home's hardware pieces into the oil rubbed bronze finish. The possibilities of design with this finish are limitless.
Oil rubbed bronze faucets come in all sizes and styles and also with different price tags.

Can Delta faucets send me an escutcheon with a button diverter that comes in only brass and chrome in bronze?
My shower is being redone and I ordered the wrong part (an escutcheon without a button diverter). I also know they don't make the part I need in the right finish. I need an oil-rubbed bronze escutcheon with a hole for the diverter and a bronze diverter. Does anyone know if they can send me a custom part?
They do not make it. However, Rustoleum makes a paint that looks just like Oil Rubbed Bronze. Paint it and then Clear Coat it and you should be good. Otherwise, you would have to replace the whole unit.

hi, i like writting and readding detective noves
how do i clean grease of a stainless steel pot/pan?
i have stainless steel pots and pans and they are covered with oil grease (bottom part) as I use them daily...any tips how to get the oil grease off ....they are good pans and I hate to throw them out due to this
DMSO is a good grease cutter. Sprey it on the greasy surface, let it stand, wipe it clean with paper towel or disposable rags. Use hot water to wash off DMSO or any degreaser compleately more then once. Reapet if required.
May need Soaking.
PS: WD40 I think has some DMSO in it. Most soaps are good degreaser. You may have to try few times and experiment with defferent strong degreasers. Elbowgrease is the other alternative.

Copper Finish
What is the name of this copper craft?
When I was in Girl Scouts, we would make crafts every summer at camp. There was on the a loved that involved a small piece of copper--usually a disc or tear-shaped--that we would put piece of glass on. We would heat the bottom-side of the copper and the glass would melt. You make a pendant out of the finished product. I loved the craft and have not seen anything like it since. Does anyone know what craft this is and if they sell the stuff to make it at craft stores?
Sounds like a form of enameling - we did something similar in Scouts too, except that we used glass powders instead of pieces. You can also do it on silver and other metals.
You probably would only find it in very large craft stores because the furnaces are expensive, like $100 and up (although some of the 'paint-your-own-pottery'-type stores are starting to offer copper enameling on a project basis - if you have any near you, ask about this possibility). Here's a link to a store/website which sells all the supplies.
http://kitkraft.biz/home
Because of the furnace expense, some people do enameling with butane or propane torches (although the personal danger and the fire hazard are real concerns). Here's a link to a site which talks about how to do enameling with torches and where to get supplies.

Moroccan Interior Design & Moorish Architecture: Lavish Style of Living
The Moroccan home is a palace of the imagination and a poetic harmonizing between man and the natural world. Walls borrow their hues from the earth and desert sand – muted reds and honeyed yellows. Tedelakt, the ancient technique of rendering smooth waxed surfaces using a colored limestone paste and black soap, give walls and floors all the appearance of clay ceramic. Interior structuring takes on organic shapes. Bends and arches complement geometric zellige tiles and curvilinear vases, set with fresh roses from the garden. Floaty, gossamer curtains in place of doors give a pleasing open feeling to the living space, while allowing breezes to circulate freely.
The Moroccan style home is a unique blend of African, Berber, and Islamic aesthetics. Plush cushions in richly textured fabrics are set upon carved ebony-stained pine and cedar moucharabi furniture. Casting the afternoon sunlight in abstract patterns are pierced metal and brass lamps standing on tables or hanging overhead. Seating, tables, and accessories throughout the home are patterned and shaped by beautifully crafted hexagonal, octagonal and arched forms. The total effect is a private visual playground and a welcoming museum-like showland that is at once masterful and inviting.
The scents of cedar and roses eddy with the aroma of lamb and apricots. Guests have arrived with a tap-tapping of a brass knocker on a heavy wooden door. The setting sun fires the purple-pink of jasmine and bougainvillea in the garden outside, as Tajine simmers a last few minutes in the oven. Domestic architecture in Morocco varies greatly according to regional climate and personal wealth. There are the simple stucco constructions of the poorer townsfolk, and there are villas of such magnificence as to lure the wandering soul across several continents for the mere occasion to stand enchanted outside their gates.
In Moroccan homes irrespective of means the blind indented arch is a most charming feature, one whose inspiration is taken directly from the mihrab, or prayer niche constructed on the qibla wall of the mosque. The interior courtyard, or riad, is another characteristic element of Moroccan architecture and of Islamic architecture in general.
Situated most often at the center of the home, the riad is a tool for privacy and practicality. Since often the main door off the street opens onto the courtyard, visitors are directed from the patio into a salon used especially for entertaining – and this without ever passing through other the living areas of the home. The riad allows for plenty of light and needed shade, since the sun’s rays and also cooler air can permeate the whole of the dwelling, while at the same time the harsher elements of wind and direct sunlight are kept out.
Interior decor is essential to Islamic architecture. Vaults, cupolas, and arched doorways are principle features which serve both functional and aesthetic purposes. In some village homes, recessed walls and benches set in cement stucco offer simple detail.
More elaborate elements may include geometric and floral motifs carved into wood beams or plaster walls. Ceramic tile, known as zellige, is also used, and may be applied to any and all surfaces, and not limited to walls, floors, roofs, and ceilings. Creative and surprising patterns, molded organic materials, and the intriguing lines of Moroccan structural motifs make the Moroccan home an extraordinary visual playground. Imagine coming home after a long day's work and slipping into a living room oasis where you're bathed in soft reds, yellows and oranges while resting on a plush cushion, next to a set of mini palm trees, breathing in the scent of Jasmine incense, listening to light jazz flutes. Selecting Moroccan furniture isn't just about functionality anymore; it's about creating a comfortable habitat where you can relax, de-stress and enjoy your downtime.
Finding the right lighting is the key to creating an ideal atmosphere. As early as 5,000 BC, the Chinese have been building homes in correlation with the sun to provide optimal light, warmth and energy. Historically, Morocco has hosted groups of diverse people from all directions - Phoenicians and Carthaginians from the East, Sub-Saharan Africans from the South, in addition to Romans, Vandals and Andalusians from the North. This Diaspora of culture comes together and can be clearly seen in these colorful Moroccan lamps and lanterns.
What makes Moroccan lamps truly unique is that they're not mass-produced in a sterile factory -- but rather, each shade is made of sheep or goatskin and is then dyed and stretched over a solid iron frame, where it is hand-painted with a needle in brilliant colors, in the decorative tradition of Henna tattoo artistry. Dating back to the Bronze Age, Henna design mimics the Henna plant, which has a plethora of long, thin stalks and tiny blossoms. Much like the tattoos, the lamp designs showcase fluid black lines and shapes, outlined by tiny dots.
Moroccan lamps, varying in shape, size, color and mood offer the opportunity to turn your living room into a stunning art museum. The African Berbers were primarily an agricultural people, so the curved "Berber" Floor Lamp is painted with a classy, simple style in neutral colors. Tall, slender styles like "The Pharaoh's Light", "Red Sun" or "Orange Magical Arabian Nights" capture one's imagination, while dazzling with dancing patterns, vibrant colors and swaths of vacuous space that instinctively pulls the eyes toward it in wonderment. End table lamps like "African Sun" or "Fez Sun" provide multifunctional use, emanating a soothing glow, while the glass top holds a piece of art, a plant or a tea set for entertaining guests. When you behold a piece like "Ocean Sun," breathing moonlight into the room with its purple hues and oceanic design, you know that this lamp is not just for providing light, but is a piece of art that will compliment other furniture and themes in the room.
Moroccan lanterns made of Stained Glass resemble the sort of Church decor that pervades the Holy Land. The shapes range from a rounded hot air balloon design, to a diamond-shaped street lantern style and they can be hung from the ceiling or mounted on the wall. Traditionally, the stained glass panes are subtle, soothing colors - an olive green, a periwinkle blue or a hint of gold. Handmade and framed in black Wrought Iron, Moroccan lanterns can bring that one unforgettable, warm summer night into your home.
Moroccan lamps and Moroccan lanterns will add an air of magic to any room. When paired with Moroccan rugs, plants and other Moroccan furniture, these handmade Moroccan lights really put the finishing touches on a relaxing, unique escape.

What is AnYang, and what do you know about it?
All i know is, AnYang was the Anyang was once a capital of the Shang dynasty and one of the earliest centers of Chinese civilization between 1554 and 1045 B.C. Excavations at this site have recovered architectural foundations, tombs, chariots, bronze vessels, and about 150,000 oracle bones. The oracle bones attest to a rich written language. WHAT ELSE ?
AnYang is a prefecture-level city in Henan province, People's Republic of China. The northernmost city in Henan, Anyang borders Puyang to the east, Hebi and Xinxiang to the south, and the provinces of Shanxi and Hebei to its west and north respectively.
Xiaonanhai, on the far western edge of the city, was home to prehistoric cavemen during the Stone Age. Over 7,000 artifacts (including stone tools and animal bone fossils) have been unearthed here representing what has been dubbed the Xiaonanhai culture.
Around 2000 BC the legendary sage-kings Zhuanxu and Emperor Ku are said to have established their capitals in the area around Anyang from where they ruled their kingdom. Their mausoleums are today situated in Sanyang village south of Neihuang County.
At the beginning of the 14th century BC King Pangeng of the Shang Dynasty established his capital 2 km north of the modern city on the banks of the Huan River. The city, known as Yin, was the first stable capital in Chinese history and from that point on the dynasty that founded it would also become known as the Yin Dynasty.
The capital served 12 kings in 8 generations, including Wu Ding under whom the dynasty reached the zenith of its power, until it was wiped out along with the dynasty that founded it by King Wu of the Zhou Dynasty in BC 1046.
Anyang's Tangyin County was the seat of Yue Village, birth place of the famous Song Dynasty General Yue Fei. This was also the historic home of Zhou Tong, Yue's military arts tutor (though fictional sources place him in Shaanxi).
The contemporary city was reconstructed in 1368 CE during the Ming Dynasty
In August 1949 Anyang prefecture was detached from Henan and, along with Puyang and Xinxiang, consigned to the experimental province of Pingyuan. All three were returned to Henan in November 1953, with the dissolution of Pingyuan
Anyang's opening to the outside world has enabled its foreign economic relations and trade progress rapidly. Sixteen foreign-funded enterprises (joint ventures, cooperative enterprises and wholly foreign-owned enterprises) have been established. Recently, Anyang has established an economic and technological development zone covering a total area of 22.8 square kilometers and issued a series of preferential policies to attract many domestic Chinese and foreign businesses. A multichannel, all-round foreign relations and trade network have been set up to lay a foundation for developing Anyang's economy.
Anyang city is an ancient city with a history of over 3,000 years and is one of the Eight Ancient Capitals of China. It is one of the key birthplaces of Chinese ancient culture. Here are the primitive caves of 25,000 years ago, the overlapping stratums of the Yangshao Culture, Longshan Culture and Xiaotun Culture, the memorial mausoleums of ancient Emperor Zhuanxu and Emperor Ku over 4,000 years ago, the first library of inscriptions on bones and tortoise shells, the Soul Spring Temple known as the "First Ancient Buddhist Temple in Henan", and 10,000-Buddha Ravine, as well as unique Wenfeng Pagoda, Xiuding Temple Pagoda and Mingfu Temple Pagoda. Anyang also has beautiful natural scenery—the Taihang Linlu Hill Scenic Area on the 400-kilometer Taihang Mountains and the grand 1,500-kilometer Red Flag Canal.
Hall of Heavenly Kings and Wenfeng Pagoda at Tianning Temple Tianning Temple
Tianning Si (Mansion Temple) was established during the Zhou dynasty and has recently been restored by the Protection and Research Institute of Ancient Architecture of Anyang City and opened to the public. Main structures within the temple compound include; the gate house, the 3 room (8.4m x 14m) Hall of the Heavenly King with hanging-eaves over the gables rebuilt in 2002, the slightly larger (17.8m x 11.65m) Precious Hall of the Great Hero with single-eave gabled roof originally from the Qing dynasty and rebuilt in 2001, and the Wenfeng Pagoda.
Wenfeng Pagoda
Wenfeng Ta (Literature Peak Pagoda) on the grounds of the Tianning Temple is believed to have been constructed in 925 and is known, from inscriptions concerning the reconstruction of the temple, to have been in place by 952. The current pagoda was constructed during the Ming Dynasty and got its current name during the Qing Dynasty due to its proximity to the Confucian temple. The five-story dark red brick octagonal tower is 38.65m high and unusually is larger at the top than the bottom and is topped with a 10m Lamaist stupa-style dagoba steeple. The pagoda stands on two-metre-high stone pedestal and is decorated with multi-eave pent roofs and carvings of Buddhas and bodhisattvas. The unique pagoda is the symbol of Anyang.
Yinxu Museum
Located about 2 km northwest of Anyang are the ruins of the Shang Dynasty capital known as Yin. This massive archaeological site was discovered in 1899, excavated in the decades that followed and first opened to the public in the 1980s as the Garden Museum of Yinxu. The current museum was opened on 16 March 2005 and includes the famous Tomb of Fu Hao. The site is inscribed on the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites.
Anyang is twinned with: Lethbridge, Canada
