House Fire Scenario

[Mortblanc]

Across the River from my area, in the urban sewer 50 miles away, there is presently a problem with arson.

Part of the gang activity involving earning gang membership and points toward promotion in the organizations.

Burning a car is worth so much. Burning an abandoned house worth more. Burning an occupied but empty house very impressive. And most impressive and status building of all...

Setting fire to a house with the owner inside!

Auto insurance and home fire insurance rates are going through the roof!

When I did my last two remodels and builds I ran my electric wiring myself.

It was not just to save money.

I feel the electric codes are not strict enough and I wanted heavier wiring, better plugs and fewer outlets per circuit and more total outlets than the codes call for. When I lay my head down the last thing I want to worry about is an overloaded circuit.

The largest single expense of this last remodel was the wiring.
