Running water to Bondi taps

Wednesday, November 9th, 2011

I had to share this.
Whilst enjoying the 15th annual Sculptures by the Sea on the world famous Bondi to Bronte walk last weekend, I was thinking about taps and changing tap washers.
Like most things, changing a tap washer is pretty easy, if you know how.
I’ve never thought of taps as a big problem if, like most of our household plumbing they are maintained.
Then I walked around Mackenzies Point and saw this………


Ahhhhh plumbers paradise.
It confirmed what I already know.
That taps are to be treasured and treated with respect, loved and caressed. Because if we don’t, they won’t do as they are designed to, deliver us water when we need it!

Our next post will get you started on how to change your tap washers, and some insight into our upcoming taps tutorial at The Lone Drainer and Pronto World Headquarters.
We will feature WSDs, What? you ask. Yep Water Saving Devices.
Plumbing is very cool isn’t it!
