Yes. The Marauder is the new kid on the Precharged Pneumatic [PCP] Airgun block that can’t be punked. After being in the Airgun world for 35 years and establishing a business in the shooting sports industry over the past 6 plus years, I’ve developed an appetite for product quality, fair value and manufacturer integrity.

I received my .22 Benjamin Marauder mid July 2009. There are as many posts out there as you would care to read from owners communicating a range of personal experiences. After reading a number of these posts you’ll realize that the reports are so closely consistent that they appear redundant.

The consistent reports about the Marauder certainly underpins the base-line performance that you can expect should you choose to become a Marauder owner. My report will confirm many of the performance qualities you may have read about and include original observations to add to the ongoing Marauder experience.

I agree with many of the favorable reports about the Marauder, such as:

o From the initial opening of the box to getting acquainted with the Marauder you feel like you

got more than you paid for. Not something we feel often these days.

o Finish is classy and exudes visible quality.

o Stealth like quiet report. Really!

o Full Power shots per fill can be 35 – 45 and even more depending on your personal tune setting.

o The ability to personally adjust the full range of tuning components of a PCP is a feature that the Marauder has and it appeals to an audience with a wide-range of experience levels.

o The choked barrel makes this rifle very accurate and probably a better shooter than many of its owners.

o The trigger is perceptibly friendly and match level adjustable to boot.

Here are some of my personal observations:

Rotary Magazine

During the new owner “getting acquainted” period, when you’re not very familiar with the Marauder’s handling techniques; a user error, not a product malfunction, may cause an accidental loading of more than one pellet into the breech. This can happen when not pulling the bolt back until it cocks. Then allowing the bolt to slide forward under spring pressure, which results in pushing a pellet partially or fully into the breech. The natural thing to do when you discover that the gun is not cocked is to try cocking it again. When you pull the bolt back the second time it frees the rotary magazine to index to the next pellet, which gets pushed behind the existing breeched pellet when you close the bolt again.

Solution 1 – Point the muzzle in a safe direction and use a suitable backstop. Now fire the rifle thereby clearing the multiple pellets in the breech. This should not be a problem if you have 800psi (never tried less pressure) or higher in your on-board reservoir.

Solution 2 – fully depressurize your rifle using the degassing tool method (see owner’s manual). Then follow the procedure for removing a jammed pellet. Remember, you’ll be removing more than one pellet at the same time, which will cause increased bore-to-pellet friction. Take your time and be careful not to use a rod that will damage the rifling.

New Marauder users may also find themselves expending effort to dislodge what seems to be a “stuck” magazine. Truly the magazine extracts flawlessly when used correctly and you won’t have this problem once you become more familiar with the operation of and relationship between the bolt and rotary magazine. A common culprit for a “stuck” rotary magazine is that the bolt pin may be partly in the magazine. Simply pull the bolt back to the rear most position and the magazine can be removed. (Always fire the rifle in a safe direction to clear any breeched pellet.)

Another culprit is a partially inserted pellet. Closing the bolt completely, thereby pushing the pellet fully into the breech, and then pulling and holding the bolt back to the rear most position will free the magazine for removal. (Always fire the rifle in a safe direction to clear any breeched pellet.) Most owners may never experience these problems, but if you do, know that it’s not the rotary magazine.

Protecting the Shroud

This caution applies to most PCPs and is meant to be helpful in avoiding unintentional user damage to the matte finish of the shroud. There is potential for surface damage to the shrouded barrel area above the fill probe. The quick disconnect fitting can scrape/scratch the bottom of the shrouded barrel when connecting and disconnecting to the fill probe. This can be solved by installing shrink wrap tubing or wrapping electrical or other durable tape around the quick disconnect fitting component parts (note: ensure that your shrink wrap tubing or tape does not interfere with the quick disconnect moving parts). If nothing else, at least place a barrier (e.g. cloth, gun sock, etc.) over the section of the barrel that may be bumped by the quick disconnect hardware. Over time, you’ll be glad to have practiced careful handling during pressurizing.

One of My Optimal Tune Settings

One hundred Marauders can be manufactured and among them will be some level of uniqueness in performance characteristics. So, using my settings may not produce the same results in your rifle. You must take the time to experiment with your rifle to achieve the performance that you desire. Here are the settings I use to achieve a satisfactory basic field distance (BFD): Hammer Tension 6, Hammer Stroke 4 and Velocity Adjustment 2.5. (The owner’s manual explains the adjustment parameters for the various tuning components). This setting produces an average 915 feet per second [FPS] with 14.3gn Crosman Premiers (CP’s) amounting to just over 26 foot-pounds of energy [FPE]….. I get over 30 full power shots with this setting. When using Dynamic 14.5gn PCP2’s with the same setting I get 940 FPS resulting in 28 FPE.

Trajectory Report and Long Range Shooting

The Marauder performs exceptionally during long-range field shooting conditions. The Marauder can’t be punked by many well established PCP’s carrying a price tag ranging 2 – 3 times as much.

Mount a quality mil dot scope and enjoy the process of charting long-range hold-under / hold-over data.

Once you’ve done this for your pellet(s) of choice the data will immediately become invaluable. You’ll shoot with absolute confidence at ranges out to 75 yards and beyond. My furthest distance shot string was during a 15mph left to right wind at 108 yards producing a 4″ group. It was no question that the gun was out shooting me. I’ll be shooting at this distance again under better conditions. In addition to shooting groups at 108yds, I also performed one of my low-tech penetration test using a soup can (soda cans are too thin). Every shot entered and exited the can, then embedded in the tree backstop. At 108yds the CP 14.3gn pellet is traveling at 421 FPS and retains 6 FPE. My currently chosen maximum effective field range is 70 yards. At 70 yards the 14.3gn CPs are traveling at 549 fps, delivering 9.5 fpe at the point of impact (POI) and my point of aim [POA] to POI is between right on to ¾ inch.

Crosman Customer Service

I have had the pleasure and, on some occasions, the displeasure of working with a number of customer service teams in the shooting sports industry. My contact with the Crosman Customer Service staff has been one of the most satisfying, respectful and responsive customer care experiences that I have had in any service industry. Crosman respectfully listened to my concerns, answered my questions and checked in with me to ensure that I was satisfied with their resolutions. I am still floored when I think about the time I received a check-in call from a Crosman representative who I knew was home sick for the day. Janet’s colleagues were very helpful during her absence. However, it was important for Janet to know that I was a satisfied customer, even though she was not in the office that day. Crosman treated me like a valued customer. Kudos to Crosman Corporation for excellence in customer care.

I’m presently placing the Marauder through additional testing (e.g. hunting, silhouette, different pellets, charting more tune settings and more…). Certainly, an important measure is the Marauder’s reliability over time. Unfortunately, my time machine is under-going a five-year maintenance service. Therefore, the Marauder has to be time tested the old fashion way.

The Benjamin Marauder lives up to its claims and is quickly establishing a respectful place in the quality PCP family of adult precision air rifles.

If you have found the MAGPRO Marauder Report helpful and would like me to test and review your Airgun industry products, I welcome the opportunity to work with your business.

What Is A Cable Basket?

A cable basket is a form of cable tray that is constructed out of a wire mesh material, and it is used to provide support for data cables. Proper cable management is facilitated because cables are kept organized and all in one place. It is typically used when there are a plethora of small cables to be wired. Data cables are small in nature compared to electrical wires or other wires and cables that are much heavier in nature.

When the cable installation involves heavier wires, it is common that a more solid tray be used. This type of tray is typically made out of steel. The solid tray is made out of steel to protect it from corrosion due to exposure to the elements, the installation almost always involves running some of the wires outdoors. Baskets, though far lighter than the typical tray, are also made to last against the elements. Though baskets are not made out of solid steel in the same way that the trays are, the baskets are made to be protected against corrosion and will last for a long time. Additionally, the more solid cable tray provides support for the heavier wires.

How It Easily Facilitates Cable Distribution and Cable Management

A cable basket facilitates easy cable distribution and cable management because all that has to be done is that the wires are laid inside of the baskets, rather than pulling it through pipes. Because pulling these wires through pipes is definitely more difficult and time consuming, dropping the wires into cable baskets takes only a fraction of the time and allows for the cables to easily be distributed around the building. Baskets run along the building in the same way that pipes do, except that they are open, allowing easy access to the wires but still providing protection to the wiring. The openness enables the wires to be maneuvered in a hassle-free way, hence the reason baskets are the most preferred when it comes to data cables over open wiring and other conventional methods of installation and cable management.

The Advantages of Using Cable Baskets

Using cable baskets presents a number of advantages during a cable installation, as well as after that. There are two main advantages to using a basket during the installation. One advantage that is most appealing is that baskets are lighter and much easier to use compared to the tray, since the cable tray is more cumbersome. Another advantage to using these baskets during an installation is that many more installations can be completed within a given day because of the quickness and ease that baskets provide. Advantages after the cables have been installed include, but are not limited to, being able to make changes to the cables with little or no difficulty (The openness of the baskets allows for this to be easily done) and providing optimal protection for the wires.

Being that cable runs are frequent in a premise and often subject to changes, it is fitting that a cable basket or cable tray be used. These allow for changes to be made easily so as to adapt to changing cabling requirements.

If you have your own business running any kind of catering or food service business, you will need good quality commercial refrigeration. Commercial fridges and freezers are essential in order to store food correctly, and at the correct temperature, and safely to avoid contamination or prevent the food from spoiling.

There are a huge variety of commercial refrigeration appliances on the market, and the choice you make will be entirely dependent upon your needs, the size of your business, and the location of the appliance. For example, freezers and fridges are normally stored within commercial kitchens, or very nearby for easy access. Coffee shops, cafes and delicatessen owners often choose these and in addition they will have a serve over the counter fridge, or a patisserie display fridge, or cake display chiller cabinet. They are wonderful ways to correctly store food at the right temperature while keeping them safe from dirt, dust, or contamination, and all the while they are clearly visible to customers to entice them into tasting the delicious produce!

This is why commercial refrigeration is such a specialist area. It needs a supplier who has an in-depth knowledge of the catering and food service industries. It is far more than simply supplying an electrical appliance. There are laws and standards on food storage and food service which must be adhered to in order to meet the stringent legal requirements that the food service industry has too meet. In addition, energy efficiency and safety is of paramount importance because these are appliances that are kept running 24 hours per day. The appliances need to be manufactured to the highest standards so owners can trust that they will run well and for a long time.

Commercial kitchens and food service companies are also extremely busy places so the appliances need to be built to be robust, hard wearing, easy to clean, and super strong. When deciding upon which appliances you will need, think about the types of food you prepare and whether you will need to display certain foods for customers to view. The different aspects that make your company unique, will dictate the types of commercial refrigeration you need.

For example if you run a coffee shop that services hot food, patisserie and salads, you will need fridges and a large freezer in the kitchen area, and then you may require a Patisseries display fridge and a serve over counter fridge. On the other hand, a busy restaurant may need two or three fridges and freezers in order to safely store all the produce required on a daily and weekly basis.

The best suppliers of commercial refrigeration will be able to give you advice on the best appliances for your needs. They will also be able to make recommendations for suitable locations and fitting of the appliances within your premises.

Commercial refrigeration is an area where it is best to deal with a highly reputable company who understands the business, the appliances and the needs of its customers.

Most people tend to organize their lives in a square, 90 degree fashion. Our TV and computer screens are square, our tables, our parking spaces (okay, a stretched square…), our money, in short, everything has corners. Our homes too almost always are designed with square rooms. This is nice, neat, easy to organize, and BORING. It’s too easy to get roped into fitting everything into neat and tidy corners.

The problem is that most furniture is not designed to fit into the corners. Even if you do stuff a couch or bookcase into the corner, you waste space, and it tends to feel cramped and somehow, not right.

The solution is to find furniture that is designed to fit into corners. This will achieve 2 results:

• 1. It’s better use of the space in the corners, and
• 2. It looks much cooler

When you install any type of corner shelves or unit, you not only salvage valuable untapped space, you often make the whole room feel more spacious and airy.

When you break the “squareness” of the room, it adds interest and charm to your decor. Not only that, but in some cases, using this area in this way can allow a room to have more than one function. For instance, a corner shelf unit for children’s toys can separate that part of your living room off for the kids while allowing you to reclaim the rest of it for toy-free relaxation.

Sometimes, instead of just filling in an otherwise unused part of your room it can become the focus of the room. A good example of this is when you install a corner TV stand, and then position your furniture around it. Suddenly, you have your own cozy viewing area.

Another elegant solution to the corner conundrum is to install corner floating shelves. This provides you with an attractive and functional way to display collections and curios. This type of shelving provides you with less shelf space, but it can add a striking highlight to your room.

People tend to just jump out to a store, find something, buy it and bring it home. The problem with finding something as unique as a corner bookcase or shelving unit is that most stores only stock a few examples. It’s a good idea to do a bit of research and see all the available options before you decide. What you buy today you’ll have for a long time, make sure that you’re really satisfied that you found the best solution for you.

Don’t forget that using the corners can help you reclaim space and reduce clutter in every room in your home from the bathroom to the garage. You can find shelves in a wide range of materials from glass to real wood and laminate in an extensive assortment of styles and finishes.

Some things to take into consideration when you are thinking about what to do with those under-used corners in your home are:

• 1. What’s next to that corner?
• 2. (if you are thinking of a corner TV stand) is there an electrical source nearby?
• 3. how close will your other furniture be to the corner?

All this is important in order to incorporate the corner into the rest of the décor. For example, if there is a doorway next to the corner, watching a TV in that corner might be distracting as people walk through the door. Also, if you want to put a corner bookcase in that corner, is there any other furniture that will be near it. Since the shelves are open in a round fashion, a couch near the shelves could very well block off access to part of the lower shelves. In short, try to picture how the corner will look, and how well it will work with the rest of the room.

Landed property can be very enticing and today it is not as hard to find these types of properties ready for rentals and other forms of occupation. But just like any other property, you ought to make your considerations to ensure that at the end of the day you select the best landed property. Here are the key areas that you should pay attention to when looking at the landed property.

The location – The area within which the property is located is of utmost importance because it can determine things such as security and convenience amongst many other important factors. It can also determine the kind of atmosphere you enjoy, especially for residential properties. Always look out for the perfect location that meets your preferences. Also important to find out is what the neighborhood has to offer. For instance, does it have good schools, hospitals and shopping complexes or do you have to drive far off to find the services that you need?

The interiors – Are they spacious enough for your liking? The size can determine plenty of factors such as how fitting it is for you or your family and the items you own and wish to have. The larger the interiors the more convenient you will find the property to be. If the landed property you are looking at comes with appliances and fixtures, consider how functional, they are or whether you need to make any replacements and repairs. A well-maintained property should give you an easy time settling down without incurring any further costs.

The layout – The fact is that most landed properties will come with more than one unit. For this reason, the layout of the property really matters. You of course want to have a unit that offers you some sort of privacy and relaxation, even though you have neighbors. Find out how possible, such private moments are by looking at the layout of the property. Still on layout, consider things such as car parking lots designated for each unit and how convenient that is for you.

The facilities – Landed properties nowadays come with almost all the facilities you could need but there still remains a need to look at what you have available. The most common facilities include gym, swimming pools, gardens, playgrounds, hot spas and sun decks. Relate what the property has available to you to what you consider most important so you can get the best.

Other areas that you can check out when looking at the landed property include the electrical wiring, plumbing, security features and availability of essential amenities such as water. Whether you are purchasing or renting the landed property, these factors are always important to consider keeping future regrets at bay. When buying, it is advisable to keep off properties that seem like they obviously need a major face lift. Fortunately, today it is very possible to find new and well-maintained landed properties that easily put your worries to rest.

Cotton and texture gloves:

These can keep hands clean and ensure against scraped areas, however may not be sufficiently solid to deal with work with harsh or sharp materials.

Covered texture gloves:

This kind of glove can give insurance against some direct thought synthetic concoctions. They can be utilized as a part of lab work gave they are sufficiently solid to secure against the particular substance being dealt with.

Elastic, plastic or engineered gloves:

These sorts of glove can be utilized when cleaning or working with oils, solvents and different synthetic substances.

Calfskin gloves:

These ought to be utilized when welding, as the cowhide can oppose starts and direct warmth. The danger of cuts and scraped spots likewise can be limited by wearing cowhide gloves.

The Importance of Gloves for Safety on Job Sites

When chipping away at a mechanical site, wearing security gloves is a best need. Comprehension of the significance of wearing work gloves at work and finding a couple that is ideal for the main job is imperative in lessening damage. The following are some key components to consider when buying a couple of work gloves.

Risk The initial phase in finding the correct work gloves is to recognize the requirement for hand insurance. Consider the business and setting in which you will work to decide the dangers you might be up against. Assessing what could cause you hurt (or what you could cause hurt) will at last figure out what sort of glove you’ll have to get the most insurance. For example, you may need to wear gloves to shield yourself from unsafe synthetic substances. On the other hand you may need to wear calfskin gloves to shield the item your taking care of from the normal oils on your skin. Different perils normal employment site risks incorporate cuts or rub, infections or microscopic organisms, extraordinary temperatures, or electrical streams. Comprehend the business and item you’ll be working with before putting resources into work gloves.

Fit and Agility – Another vital part while picking an appropriate work glove is the fit. On the off chance that a glove is too vast for a specialists hand, the glove could make a hindrance and keep work from completing securely. Then again, if a glove is too little, this could confine a specialist’s scope of movement, again preventing work from completing. Inadequately fitting gloves can make the hand spasm or rankle, eventually disabling a laborer from doing their activity securely. It is essential to quantify turns with a specific end goal to discover legitimately measured gloves.

Covering – Depending on the business, a specialist may require gloves with defensive coatings to keep harm from specific components. For instance, on the off chance that you are working with cruel synthetics, you will require gloves with an impermeable defensive covering. Different choices of security gloves incorporate ones made with an extraordinary hard support to keep cut from things like needles or cutting devices. Some exploration ought to be done before you purchase to guarantee you are shielding yourself from potential perils your activity will posture.

Perceiving the way that you have to wear gloves and painstakingly evaluating every one of the variables that you should be shielded from will help decide the glove that is ideal for you. For the greater part of your work glove needs, contact the experts at Stone Breaker.

Limescale or Hard Water is the main cause of death to appliances, kettles and water boilers. To clean limescale is a very difficult task and if left too late its normally impossible to get rid of. The most effective way to descaling is having not to descale. There is a variety of filters for water that can be used. The best protection against limescale build-up for your appliances and home plumbing is to have a water softener fitted to the main water inlet to your property. Water softeners cost between 300 to 700 pounds depending on your household size.

Planning Your Installation. Always observe the water bylaws. Ensure there is only one water main supply, that you have allowed adequate space for access to the unit for salt filling and possible maintenance at a later stage. Check the water pressure, locate the main water supply stop cock, a drain facility and a power supply to connect the unit to.

Water Pressure Test. It is important that a pressure check is carried out. Low and high water pressure can result in either damage to, or failure of the softener. Although the softener is pressure tested it is recommended to fit a pressure limiter should your pressure exceed 5 bar (70 psi) also recommended is that any water appliance be fitted with a leak controller.

Siting the Softener. Where possible, this should be close to the water supply main. Take care to allow hard water take off points for a drinking water facilities and or an outside tap. A good option for fresh water would be to leave the cold water tap in the kitchen as the drinking water facility. If this is not possible a easy DIY installation filtered water kit can be installed. If the Stopcock is located in an inconvenient position to create a hard water supply I recommend the fitting of a reverse osmosis system. Keep the distance between the drain and the Softener as short as possible. Ensure that both the drain and overflow are not subject to freezing or over 49’C. If seating the softener inside a cupboard ensure that the base is adequately supported. If the softener is being installed within your loft etc, it is recommended to house the softener inside a 95 liter tank and insulate well. The overflow on the tank must be below the softener overflow and be a minimum of 3/4 inch in size.

Non Return Valve. In single dwellings a single check valve should be fitted. This item can be purchased from any plumbing shop.

Check list. You will require two T valves, isolator valve and two flexible hoses to connect your inlet and outlet to the unit.

Before starting installation of the valves ensure that the stopcock is in the closed position.

Connecting to the softener. Once you have completed the installation of the valves put the inlet and outlet valves in the closed positions and open the bypass valve. You can now safely return the stop cock to the open position. Connect the inlet and outlet flexible pipes to the softener.The softener inlets and outlets should be indicated either with the words inlet or outlet or with an embossed directional arrow on the softener tails. Normally the softener tails are in a configuration of three with the centre normally being the waste outlet.

Waste Pipe Installation. All softeners are provided with a waste hose on some units this is preinstalled to the softener. Should this not be the case on your machine use the connection fitting at the end of the supplied flexible pipe to connect to the softener drain connection. Run the drain hose to either an up stand or an outside drain. A minimum air gap of 20mm must exist at the end of the drain line. Softened water will have no adverse effect on a septic tank. If you need to extend the drain hose this can e done by connecting to a 15mm copper tube for a maximum run of 8 meters with a minimum daytime pressure of 40psi. Ensure that the drain hose is not kinked in any way as this will lead to an overflow of the machine. The drain hose can run up hill to a maximum of 3 feet with a minimum pressure of 40psi.

Overflow Connection. The hose from the overflow should be cut from the drain hose. The overflow connection is the white half inch hose spigot on the rear or side of the cabinet. No clip is required for this connection. The overflow must be run downhill through an outside wall without kinks or restriction. It is recommend the overflow hose be visible when it exits the Outside wall.

Electrical connection. Connect the transformer provided to a continuous electrical connection supply with the power off. Plug the flying lead from the transformer into the electrical connection on the controller. Ensure the flying lead cannot get caught on the camshaft or any moving parts on the machine

Preparing the softener to go into service. Now that all of the connections have been completed it is advisable to put approximately 5 litres of water into the brine tank. You may also at this point put a quantity of salt into the tank. Do not allow the water softener salts level in the brine tank to exceed the height of the overflow. The amount of salt used will depend upon the type of machine. You should never let the brine tank become completely empty of salt and it is advisable to check the salt levels on a weekly basis until a usage pattern has been established.

Setting the machine to service. To set the machine to service simply alter the position of the inlet and outlet valve and turn the bypass valve to the off position. It is recommended that this procedure is completed in the following order.

1, Turn the Softener inlet valve to the on position

2, Turn the bypass valve to the off position. Allow approximately five minutes to allow the incoming water to build a level of pressure before completing step 3.

3, Turn the Softener outlet valve to the on position.

You should now complete any programming instructions that apply to your particular machine and perform a manual regeneration. A manual Regeneration is performed at this stage to allow you to confirm that the unit has no leaks from the installed valves and the Waste runs free. This regeneration will also assist in clearing any potential air locks that may be present within the system. The regeneration will also reset any internal meter or timer devices that dictate the frequency of the regeneration cycle. Your machine should now be supplying your property with soft water. If you find that the water feels too soft for you. It is possible to dilute the softness by slightly opening the bypass valve and allow some hard water to blend with the soft.

When you own or have control over a backyard swimming pool safety must be your number one priority. There are too many young children drowning and injuring themselves in backyard pools. However, backyard pools are the source of many other types of accident and injury for young and old. Let’s check out how you can improve your pool safety to safeguard your family and friends.

1. Upgrade Your Pool Fence

Many local authorities require new and existing swimming pools to be fully fenced. This requirement applies to all pool owners irrespective or not of whether there are young children living in the household.

If you are building a new pool or have an existing pool you need to check that you are in compliance with the latest swimming pool fencing regulations in your local council area. If you need to construct a new fence or upgrade an existing safety barrier there are two main choices for pool fencing. Choose between an aluminum structure and hardened safety glass.

More people are choosing glass barriers because they are aesthetically pleasing and provide clear view of the backyard area and beyond. These barriers suit modern or contemporary homes especially when there is a view beyond the backyard. A glass fence really does add value to a home.

Aluminum fences are less expensive than glass while still providing the highest level of safety to any backyard. These fences are easy to install and can be erected by a do-it-yourself person.

2. Electrically Earth Your Pool Fence

Swimming pools are a large body of water that can be conductive of electricity. If there is an electrical fault causing an electric current in the pool water metal structures around the pool may become conductive. A person can be electrocuted from any metal structure around the pool including handrails, ladders, light fittings and safety fences.

When installing a new metal swimming pool safety fence there may be a requirement to earth the pool fence to adhere to electrical safety regulations. Owners must make enquiries from a local licenced electrical contractor as to whether their pool fence requires an equipotential bond or earth.

3. Install a Pool Cover

Pool covers are not simply for keeping leaves out of your pool. A cover that prevents a person falling through into the water provides the highest level of safety and security for your family. These covers are expensive but will prevent a child from drowning in your pool.

4. Cover your Spa Pool or Hot Tub

There may not be a fencing requirement for hot tubs or spas in your local council. However, you must cover these spas with a child-proof lid or cover to prevent young children accessing the water. Most new hot tubs are sold with a child-proof top or lid that is firmly fitted over the tub or spa. Separate covers can be purchased for existing hot tubs and spa pools.

5. Install a Swimming Pool Alarm

An electronic swimming pool alarm will warn you when someone or something enters your pool water. Pool alarms are not just for families that have children. Households with elderly people, physically or mentally handicapped, and pets should install a pool alarm to protect those who are vulnerable to an accident.

There are many types of alarm for every type of pool. The most popular are the floating surface wave alarm, the wristband immersion alarm and the sub-surface alarm. All these alarms operate wirelessly to a base station alarm that is placed inside your home.

A wristband immersion alarm is suitable for an elderly person or someone who is physically or mentally handicapped. This type of alarm will sound when the wristband becomes wet.

Floating surface wave alarms and sub-surface alarms activate when the water is disturbed by a person entering the water.

6. Install a Swimming Pool Enclosure

When you live in an area inhabited with insects, birds and other animals you may want to consider installing a swimming pool enclosure. It is law to install a pool fence so why not go all out and install a fully enclosed pool structure to guarantee no child or wildlife will enter your pool. These structures also provide some protection against the weather, reduce evaporation of the pool water and make outdoor dining and barbeques totally enjoyable without insects.

7. Get a Pool Safety Inspection

A pool safety inspection is usually only required when a homeowner is selling or renting their property. Some government agencies may not transfer a property or register a rental lease without the pool safety certificate.

Some home insurance policies require owners to have a pool safety certificate.

Also, you may want to obtain a pool safety certificate to ensure your backyard pool area has the highest level of safety for your family.

After a pool safety compliance officer checks your backyard and finds the pool area in compliance with regulations a pool safety certificate is issued.

Electrical wiring is used in practically all kinds of settings with all kinds of requirements. The truth is that a wire that is perfect for one application may not be the best choice for another application. But because they are in a wide range, you will always be in a position to select the best for the wiring project you have and any specific requirements there could be. Here are some of the factors that affect your selection.

Labeling – If you are keen enough, you will find that electrical wires have letters on them. These usually represent insulation types. For instance one labeled H means that it is heat resistant whereas one labeled HH means that is highly heat resistant. T could indicate thermoplastic insulation, N for nylon coating that is resistant to gas and oil damage and W could indicate that the wire is suitable for wet conditions. They could come with multiple letters to indicate the different properties. If you are not too sure about the kind you are about to buy, get professional help or make enquiries and go through reviews to find out the specifications.

Wattage load, ampacity and gauge – They are very important considerations to help you get the correct wire for the correct application. Wattage load indicates how much wattage it can accommodate, ampacity stands for the amount of electricity that can flow through the wire and the gauge is simply the size of the wire. These aspects are mentioned on appliances, making it easier for you to know which wires to go for. You can of course get assistance from an electrical technician if you are not too sure about the interpretations to help you find the most suitable one.

Size – Every application will come with a certain size that is suitable for installation. Wire gauge is what determines the size with the most common wires being sizes 10, 12 and 14; the higher the number the smaller the wire size. The size of your wire is important because it can affect the amount of power it can accommodate.

Color codes – When it comes to electrical wires, different colors serve different purposes. Black ones are commonly used for outlets and switches whereas red wires may be ideal for switch legs. Bare copper and green wires are for grounding whereas whites are always neutral. Some are best for all kinds of internal wiring, especially in appliances; your application should help you choose the correct color code.

Wire type – Electrical wires come in different types including triplex, panel feed, main feeder, single strand and nonmetallic sheathed wires. Your application again will determine which wire type is most suitable. When buying your wires, you can always get a professional help you with the selection and probably even with the installation of whatever you are working on. Wrong wire use could have serious consequences and they are what you should be trying to avoid.
