- GFCI Outlets Are Vital Part of Swimming Pool Safety
- Evansville Courier & Press (7/29/2007)
- I recently read an article about a young girl who was killed by moving a lamp or some electrical appliance around a pool deck.I thought all pool outlets had to be protected by some state-of-the-art system to prevent this kind of accident.The GFCI device detects a leak of current and trips the breaker inside the outlet or at the circuit breaker, which then prevents extreme exposure to an electrical shock.
- Bath Products Review: Bath Lighting
- BUILDING PRODUCTS Magazine (7/19/2007)
- It's a fait accompli. "The bath is no longer a room with an overhead light and plumbing in it," says Charleston, S.C.-based custom builder Kevin Kalman. "The cabinetry in these rooms is so expensive now [that] the lighting has to keep up." Many homeowners know a lot about specialty lighting. Indeed, notes GE lighting specialist Kathy Presciano, "People are exposed to more than they were 10 years ago. They see lighting in places. They hear about it. They read magazines. They visit model homes. And they look for what is going to set their home apart. Oftentimes, the architectural lighting really makes a big difference."
