Synopsis

Water behaves the same way everywhere. It arrives under pressure and it leaves
by gravity — in a house, in a travel trailer, in a cabin at the end of a dirt
road. Learn that once and the same small set of skills works in all three.

This book starts at zero. No experience, no expensive tools, no assumptions.
Every repair is broken into steps you can follow the first time you try it.

Inside you will find:

• The first four repairs everyone needs: a dripping faucet, a running toilet,
a clogged drain, and a leak under the sink.
• Shutoffs and supply lines — how to make the water stop before anything else
goes wrong.
• Water heater basics, explained without jargon.
• RV plumbing as its own system: fresh water, gray and black tanks, the pump,
the fixtures, and winterizing done properly with non-toxic antifreeze.
• Cabin water from every source — wells, springs, hauled water and rain — plus
septic, greywater and off-grid toilets.
• Opening and closing a seasonal cabin, step by step, so nothing freezes and
splits while you are away.
• Making connections in every pipe type you are likely to meet.
• Emergency repairs on the road and off-grid, when help is hours away.
• Freeze protection everywhere, and a clear line for when to call a
professional.

Aligned to the 2024-2026 codes and illustrated with more than 45 full-color
figures showing exactly what your hands should be doing.

No experience needed. Just the next step.
