Abstract: A pipe rodding guide tool which directs a flexible cleaning rod or snake in a selected direction at a pipe junction or series of pipe junctions, wherein the pipe rodding guide tool comprises a rod for a user to hold and a deflector for directing the flexible cleaning rod or snake in the direction of the bend or deflector.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to a sump pump guard adaptor, system, and method of adapting thereof, and more particularly to an inlet pre-screen cover also acting as a platform for pit positioning of a pump, a platform for adapting multiple pumps made to adapt over the inlet of sump pumps of different size to be configured into sump pits also of varied size. The adaptor can be adapted using a base connected to a top portion or simply a top portion also called the adaptor itself. The design also includes a plurality of flow openings that allow for easy cutting or bending of different portions of the adaptor for example on the inner and outer radii of the adaptor, a multi-segment design for better stacking and storage in a compact configuration, a plurality of pipe openings for use in a staked sump pumps configuration, an access doors to help lower the sump pump into the adaptor, and an adaptor with a secondary pump support built in the main body or as an external piece adaptable to the main body.

Abstract: There is disclosed a mixing valve intended for being interposed and connected to the water supply for an outdoor water spigot and incorporates a hot water supply inlet aperture for interconnecting a hot water supply line from the existing hot water source and a cold water supply aperture for interconnecting with a source for cold water, the mixing valve being positioned at a source remote from the outdoor spigot in order to provide tepid water at the outdoor water spigot location. The mixing valve may therefore be installed without reconstruction of existing walls or other structures.

Abstract: This novel cushioned container consists of an inner tube in which an item is located and concentric outer tube resiliently connected to the inner tube. The inner tube is evacuated by a hose located therein after which the hose is closed off. The outer tube is then inflated by a hose to provide a cushioning chamber surrounding the enclosed item. The hose connected to the outer chamber is then closed off to prevent air from leaving the cushioning chamber.
