It is a good news/bad news sort of day. The good news is that plumber installed the toilet, the faucet, and the water filter. The sink and toilet work! I have water! Wonderful!!
The bad news is that there is no HOT water. The plumber had suggested moving the water heater from under the sink to the basement. The water heater now lives on a suspended platform a few feet under the ceiling. (So pretty, I know.)
In its new location, drainage is better, there’s more room under the sink, and if the water heater ever blows, damage would happen to the basement instead of my lovely office.
If only construction were so simple. You see, there is no outlet near the little platform and it’s an ELECTRIC heater.
