Adding Solar Panels to PVC plumbing

Never thought of that! But I'll bet you're right!

Up where Al lives, they send a black bear and a wild turkey in lieu of a building inspector! But where I live they send a pit bull! (at least the electrical inspector acts like one--bless him!)

YUP, the electrical inspectors are ass#$%*&holes where I live too. When my pool was built we had a couple of electrical boxes and timers on the mounting board. The electrician decided to drop the conduit from one box below grade and then come up to the next box to make the runs look nice and vertical rather than looping them in mid-air below the boxes. The inspector failed him saying anything that is under ground must be 18" deep. The idiot inspector did not grasp that it was more sound to go slightly in the ground with the loop than having it just dangle below the mounting board.

Actually, I LIKE such inspectors. The contractors HATE him--I realized that's A GOOD THING! When we did our kitchen he found all kinds of cheats the contractor's required electrician did. And he didn't even find them all--I found one a year later.

For example, the elec used mechanical grounds (the metal conduit), and the inspector made him use proper electrical grounds.

I figure if an inspector insn't crooked and the contractors hate him, he's on MY side--and the funny thing was, with that attitude he was far more willing to work with me.

Reminds me: If a real estate agent recommends a home inspector, avoid him like the plague. If they spit and curse and tell you a guy's a bum and a *****, then HIRE HIM!
