You read it right.  Time to buy a current detector.  Do not even do a simple task like installing a GFCI or a dimmer unless you test AFTER you turn off what you think is the correct breaker.

I had quite a scare the other day when I came home and my husband told me what had happened as he tried to replace a GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter).  He had the "shock" of his life.  No -- I didn't tell him I am pregnant--he got a heck of a literal "shock."  Scared me.  He has promised to always check the circuit first before "going in" in the future.

Do yourself a favor--spend the 10 bucks to potentially save someone you love from unnecessary injury or accidental death by electrocution.

Tankless hot water heaters are all the rage.  Everybody seems to be talking about them.  What's the big deal??  Well,

1. Efficiency--Lack of waste--The water is heated as you need it, so it doesn't continuously keep 20-80 gallons at a hot temperatue.  You end up heating water you don;t use and it heats the area the water heater is in.

2. Options--You can install the tankless heater in applications where a traditional hot water heater would not be practical--like an outdoor kitchen.

3.  The water is always hot.  You can install one for a particular application or a whole house unit.

4. The future is now.  Time to conserve--less waste, more available resources.  Check out these sites for more information
