we will discuss basic systems for both city and rural situations. This will cover the topics of supply, drain, waste, and vent requirements. From the topics covered on plumbing systems I will break off as a separate subject on Plumbing Fixtures as most people realize they will need to select fixtures at some point in the process but rarely think of the association between how plumbing fixtures and electrical fixtures are usually finish matched to items like door hardware. Remember this, door hardware is selected very early in the building process since exterior doors are installed early and the finish of the hinges needs to match other hardware choices. Residential HVAC SYSTEMS

Include all systems that heat, cool or otherwise condition the living environment. In this section I will cover many of your options and other considerations that will affect your choices.

The link below will take you to a great site on alternative energy options with all the lastest information on Geothermal, Wind, Hydro Electric and other alternative sources.

I chose to add one additional subject to this section so we will cover the subject of FIREPLACES In this section I will cover wood burning, gas, electric and pellet systems. Once you have covered all these options you should have a good idea if a relaxing fireplace is right for you.
