From the Publisher
More Information'Draining down a system' is covered in depth on p 41, with more on p154 and other mentons elsewhere. The job only entails closing one valve, opening another and waiting until the water stops, so there's a limit as to how much you can say about it.
The point about this book is that unlike most others on the subject it deals with the kind of plumbing actually found in the majority of homes and what can be done about it. Most books look only at new systems and methods, whereas our book also covers things that went out of fashion years ago but are still found in the real world in people's homes.
