New Document for Small Businesses from City of San Diego

I took a look and it is pretty good. I even learned that the water supply pipes under a bathroom sink need to be insulated. I always ask for the drain but never the supply. Now a question. I don't allow foam wrap for the drain pipes. It falls apart and can't be kept clean. There is a boot that fits the drain pipes. So what about the supply pipes? Is there a molded boot for that? It is also only 34 pages with pictures.

This should be in the the useful links thread.

Properly installed water lines under bathroom sinks are well beyond the toe/knee clearance requirements and would never come in contact with a person in a wheel chair. It would be a rare case when they would be "required" to be insulated
 
There are sectional boots for supply.

Just FYI, but it doesn't matter if it's boots or wraps, it NEVER gets cleaned anyway. Ones as good as the other. Plus the vinyl Velcro-closed boots hide coke, meth, and heroin. Easily.

Go remodel a few public restrooms. Thine eyes shall squint in dismay. :)

Cause I love to derail the train; did a bank of four restrooms this year. The general hired this laborer who looked like a muscled up tatted work machine. I of course took a personal in'erst in burning him down. The old Lino had to be scraped up on the bottom floor so I just flooded it to loosen the glue. He proceeded to start panting with his mouth open about ten minutes in and everytime that tool wood hit the water would splash in his mouth. After I recovered from convulsive laughter I explained that what he was wallerin in was the nastiest homeless VD encrusted gack he could imagine, and really, he should close his forking mouth. Probably the Herp J or K by now.

Brent.
