How Your House Works: A Visual Guide to Understanding and Maintaining Your Home



An easy-to-understand, richly illustrated guide to how everything in a house works. Why is my faucet leaking, my toilet running, or my dishwasher refusing to start? Can I fix it myself? What’s causing the heating system to smell bad or the foundation to crack? Do I need an air filtration system? Is the new “engineered lumber” as good as conventional wood? These are just a few examples of questions homeowners face when repairs are needed or when a new house or addition is being planned. This new edition of How Your House Works uncovers the mysteries behind just about every major appliance and building element in your house. Clear “exploded” drawings show you exactly how these things should be put together and how they function—what to check if they don’t work, and what you can do that might save you from calling in a professional.
