The best time to plant your corn seeds is when the soil temperature reaches an average of 50 degrees Fahrenheit. You can determine the average ground temperature in your garden using a soil thermometer -- available at most garden stores.
Vents are a major component in a home's drainage system. Venting allows water to pass out of the drains easily. Today, houses are vented through the roof. Roof flashing, made from heavy grade rubber, lead or sheet metal holds the vent pipe in place. Another thing to consider is pitch.
Traps. A drain trap is a U-shaped pipe that connects to the bottom of a sink, shower or tub drain. A trap retains a small amount of water that prevents smelly sewer gasses from backing up into the house. All plumbing fixtures require drain traps except the commode, which comes with an internal trap in its base.
