  anywhere except into junction boxes located in the 18 inch joist space below the subfloor.
  Immediately below thi...

• Posted in thread: Plumbing permits - homeowner vs plumber on 08-31-2006 at 10:07 PM
  It's only one of the goofy things up here in this area. Building permits, plumbing permits, and
