@ Hey Thanks DustyBuilder… I’ve just recently moved into my place. Not familiar with everything yet. I know I’m limited on space. It’s a doublewide manufactured home so I think it’s all underneath unfortunately. I live in the Northeast so it’s not a good time of year to get under it but I’ll try to see what’s happening.

@@thedustybuilder The code is confusing. It clearly states that you cannot use NM cable in wet locations (334.12(B)(4)).

Hi, thanks for the tour. How do you vent steam from the shower. The new house we bought has a Shower Dome. Steam is kept within the shower cubical so it doesn't condense on cool surfaces in the bathroom. Once finished showering, we leave the shower door ajar to discourage growth of mold in the cubical

The muriatic acid is not to darken the color. When you wash the surface a bit of residue is left behind and 5he acid stain to wash the haze off. And how deep you wash depends on when you put the coke on. If you put it on sooner the concrete is soft and it soak in deeper. If you put it on when you can walk on it you will get more of a sandwash finish.
