Sagging pipes & conduits? Seriously? It should never happen! But guess what? Even most sparkies & plumbers rarely know what the spacing Rules are.

    • Plan all other services so they look beautiful together – not the usual tangle
    • Please use durable brackets and screws – no more passivated zinc or power coated mild steel!
