Doubly Important

Because such a vital part Of
the plumbing-the supply,
waste, and vent piping-is
concealed behind the walls

doubly important for the
owner to be assured of the
competency and reliability OF
the man in charge of the
plumbing installation.

In Talking to Plumber

You can help your master
plumber DO a better job and
make his precious working
hours 90 farther if you win
tell him as accurately as pos
Sible what's wrong when you
call for service, the Plumbing
and Heating Industries Bu-

"A reasonably accurate
knowledge Of the trouble
and where IL is located will
enable the plumber to de-
eide what equipment he will
need for the work So that
he will not have to 20 back
to the shop for more TOOLS"
the bureau stated.
"Much of the misunder-
standing between home
owners and master plumb

lie does not Use the correct
terminolOgy in referring to
plumbing fixtures.
WRONG TOOLS
Nearly every master
plumber, for instance, has
been called TO unstop what
the home owner said was a
clOgged 'lavatOry,' only to
find when he arrived with
the tools for this fixture
that IL wasn't the wash
basin at all but the water
closet that was clogged.
Most Of the misunder-
standing arises between
three fixtures - the water
closet, the lavatory and the
sink.
THE term 1avatory' ap-
plies TO the fixture used for
washing the face and hands.
THE word comes from
the Latin word 1avare'
meaning TO wash.

"TO call the fixture .
sink Is incorrect, inasmuch
as sink Is the name for tho
kitchen fixture used for

universally used in the

The designation Of pub

minology.
"Inasmuch as the term
1avatOry' not only means the
