Rating: - Best plumbing how-to book out there
I really like this book - Rex covers a lot of topics that other books on plumbing totally skip over - he gives a lot of the explanation and "whys" behind the practices.
Very practical - if you buy one plumbing book, this should be it.

Rating: - helpful book
We recently remodeled a bathroom, and this book saved us time and frustration. When our first attempts at sweating copper pipes failed, we looked to this book and found very thorough instructions on each step of the process. The information on different types of solder and flux with a wider working temperature range was especially valuable. As a result, our next attempt with the copper connections was successful. The section on installing a pedestal sink was very clear and helpful, as was the information on choosing a toilet. The book also helped us diagnose and solve a problem with water hammer. I am sure that we will use this book as a resource for our next plumbing challenge.

Rating: - I Love This Series
Since I am doing a lot of remodeling, I have a lot of books, and the ones in this series are frequently the most helpful. This book give a lot of really good, specific help with plumbing, where other how-to books don't answer the detail questions you have in the middle of a project. Like how far does the toilet need to be from the wall?
