It's just a long piece of a PVC pipe that runs from the basement to the attic. If your electrical panel is in the basement and you need to run another circuit to the second floor, it can be done without disturbing the walls. If they want more then $150-200 for it, forget it. Speaking of electrical panels, you should ... |

Example: My builders offers an extra course in the basement (making the basement 10 in. taller) Obviously, this can not be done once the house is built. So I paid. Fireplace is another example. If yo... |
