If you suspect loose wire connections in your electrical system, wall switches and outlets are often the first places to check. The most common sign of a problem is a buzzing or crackling sound, or flickering lights. If the connections are made via push-in fittings on the back of the device, they are often prone to failure and it’s recommended to reconfigure the wires to the more reliable screw terminal connections on the sides. Professional electricians typically avoid using push-in fittings altogether. To ensure a safe and effective repair, remember to always turn off the power before working on the switch or outlet.

Keeping bathroom items in the shower in a tidy fashion is not an easy task. But thanks to niche. If a niche designed right, it helps organizing all bathroom items and offers many other advantages.

Niche needs to be designed in a such a way that it is easily accessible, away from water from rain head, shower head, or jets, and with a right height to be able to fit all items.

Items to watch when designing a Niche

– Height & Width

Going as wide as possible gives a nicer look from design perspective and provides more space. Consider ergonomics when positioning the niche location along water sprayed from rain head, shower head, jets, etc.

– Location

Can be on any wall if the structure allows and the height and width norms above observed. One consideration is tile design and how the niche location may dictate tiles around it. Try to position the niche in such a height and width that no narrow tiles are used around the niche. Some design the niche dimensions based on tile size it is used.

One sensor normally comes with the heating cable and one with the thermostat. It has happened many times that one sensor is not functional and that is the time the other temperature sensor comes handy. Ripping the floor to run another sensor is costly.
