Maks about 3 ec, STILL WATERS LONDON (CP)--Moonshiners who operate illicit stills have been praised by a government spokesman for their skill. "In the old days people would drink anything with a kick, but not any more," he said. With the growing appetite for outdoor living, modern "house- cleaning' eontinues right on outside the walls of our home. Scrubbing up extends to outdoor furniture, patios, sunshades and awnings, cook-out areas, wad- ing pools, tool sheds, garages, cars--even the exterior of the house itself. : Where there is plenty of el- bow room for working outdoors, there is still the problem of lug- ging hot water from 'the kitchen or basement. We all know that suds do a better job with hot water than cold--but there is a limit to how many pails of hot wash water even a willing arm can tote. The answer is an _ outside source of hot water, handy to the scene of action. Its conven- ience far outweighs the cost of installation. ° Indoor items -- Venetian blinds, fibre rugs, mattresses, garbage cans -- can also be taken outsidg for a thorough scrub. SIMPLEST WAY The simplest way to have hot water where it is wanted is to install an extra length of pipe from the heating unit to an out- side faucet when plumbing plans are in the making for a new house, However, you will find it re- latively inexpensive to have this extra pipe -and faucet fitted into an existing plumbing sys- tem during remodelling or as a separate home » improvement project. ' Separate pipes for the hot and cold water leading to a mixing faucet permit the water tem- perature to be adjusted at will. The closer the faucet is to the heating unit, the less effort and expense involved. The best location may. be in- side the garage, if that is at- eth A" CL AL MP = a A A CET GTO LE aE How To Get Hot Water For Outdoor Cleaning tached to the house, or perhaps midway between house and gar- age, with the faucet set upon a standard, A threaded tip on the hot wa- ter tap permits the homeowner to "attach any of the many cleaning devices that speed up sudsy outdoors jobs such as garden hose, brush with built- in suds-cylinder or car-washing wand. FREEE-PROOF TAPS Freee - proof taps are also available, which shut off from the outside but have a control- ling valve inside. When the faucet is turned off, the vaive on the end of a 12-inch copper tube is activated and no water is left in the tube to freeze. This type of faucet is re- movable, and has a flange which enables the whole device to fit neatly on an outside wall. |: There are also ways of using your home's existing plumbing to make hot water readily available outdoors. Separate hot and cold water laundry faucets can be replaced with a single threaded mixing faucet. Just. attach the garden hose, run it through a window or door, and have all the hot wash water needed for outside sud- sing and rinsing jobs. Still another arrangement 'is applicable to any home. Attach a small, lightweight portable electric faucet water heater to any outdoor faucet and plug it into the nearest electric socket by means of a waterproof cord. This is de- signed to heat the water almost. instantly as it flows through.
