    Plumbing question

    here in the RRV it IS good however to keep the soil moist around your foundation so as to keep it from shrinking and changing the support around the walls - basically minimizing the yo-yo effect of the clays swelling when wet and shrinking when dry I could see a sprinkler turning on once a week...

    Plumbing question

    Plumbing question
