Replacing a toilet not always made simple

Replacing a toilet isn’t always easy and honestly most the time their are serious problems that need a professional plumber. Plumbers are aware of what is wrong but to the average person an issue might not hit them straight in the face.

For example: In the pictures below the flange of the toilet needed to be replaced. Every time a toilet is pulled and lifted of the ground be aware that an issue may need to be address further under the toilet. Once a toilet supply line is disconnected it may not attach properly to the new threads of the shut-off or toilet tank itself. A toilet shut off may not turn off all the way and might need replacing before even addressing the toilet itself. Replacing the shut off will consist of turning off the main water shut off to the entire house. To go one step further if the main water shut off valve doesn’t turn off, then the city will have to be called to turn off the water from outside near the street.

How smart are “smart cars”

Don’t think for a second by owning a smart car your in the clear. There are always pro’s and con’s to everything you purchase in life. Just make sure when buying a smart car the pro’s outweigh the con’s. Let’s dive in a take a look at some of the benefits to the smart car. Not only does a smart car get 40 mpg, but is also environmentally friendly as well. Did you know what 95% of the vehicle is recyclable materials from construction. Smart cars are so tiny they can basically park anywhere. The smart car is only nine feet long. That’s two feet shorter then the Mini Cooper. The car is so small they even found room to fit four airbags inside.

Now let’s go over some of the con’s. One of the biggest issue to owning a smart car is the limited space. If this car is your only dependent car that could be a problem at times. When moving items from one location to another your may have to rent a truck or count on a friend. The smart car is so small that it makes it hard for other vehicles to see you on the road. Cause it’s smaller it may be able to maneuver out of an accident that an SUV or truck couldn’t avoid. Cruise control unfortunately doesn’t come equipped in smart cars, yet. How smart is a smart car when family can’t drive together? If you plan on going on a road trip or even out to dinner a smart car won’t get you all their together.
Personally, I hope one day they invent the “Smart truck”, in the near future of course.
