  1. Just bought a new scooter. Does anyone know where the dealer sends the red-stamped residency document to after the deal is done? Do they have to submit it to a government office to get the permanent plates? If so, what office(s)? Or, do they just keep it on file to CTA?
  2. Yep, prefer copper, have done plenty of it before, but doubt finding the fittings on the tap and the shower head to use with copper would be easy. Doubt I'll be here in ten years, so I'll go with Crossy and use blue throughout. Thanks all.
  3. I do not want any flexible hoses or blue pipe exposed. Simply a single, fixed shower head, western-style, with all plumbing in the wall. In the US, white PVC is for cold water, CPVC for hot. Is the blue here dual purpose, or do I need the red -dashed metal flex all the way from the heater through the (volume only) valve and to the shower head? This is a remodel so openings will be cut to insert pipe, strap over, then fill with concrete. Thanks-
  4. Nothing would surprise me, except a small village where every man over 15 is a master plumber, electrician, and mason. And even more surprising, they all have different solutions.
  5. I need a smallish storage unit for a year. Mostly boxes. 1 meter x 1 meter is more than enough. I'm in Chantaburi, but I saw a tall building entering Bangkok with a big STORAGE sign on top. Anybody know where there is secure storage and approximate pricing in BKK? Thanks.
  6. All are Mitsubishi constant flow and look haphazardly placed beneath a one meter tall shed, that apparently Herve Villachez built. I'lll try to take a picture next time they go out. But just picture Indiana Jones in that snake pit, with three yellow water pumps. That's what all the hosing looks like.
  7. He actually bought the 255, which is more powerful. Then the "electrician," considered the fact that the new plug he put in was only two-prong, cut off the ground prong on the plug and smiled big as he plugged it in. So now my question is, coming into Bangkok fro Chantaburi, there is a storage business. Anyone know what a smaller storage unit goes for? I want to head back to Mexico for a year and see how much it's changed, before I get electrocuted.
  8. Landlord has a 60 meter-deep well with three pumps for three bungalows 300 feet away. using 3/4" pipe. My water supply has, for the past year, ben perhaps 1gpm, so he finally installed a new pump at the wellhead. Now, the pressure may be 2gpm. But now he is hooking up another bungalow to my pump. He says he will, if necessary, put a 1200 liter tank and another pump a few yards away from our bungalows, and run water to us from there. I'm a brewmaster, not a plumber or engineer. Please give input in what and how things should be done because this guy's toolbag has a screwdriver, hammer, and hack saw blade, and everything he does is a disaster. He wants to put the second pump on the supply side to the tank, rather than the output to the house side. Advice? (Suicide is an option, yes.)
