Hello Considering a gas log set for my home (converting a wood burning fireplace) This would be a direct vent type of kit. I am looking for a way to run the gas piping into the firebox. I am unable to come in from the side of the firebox, nor from the back, however there is an ash clean-out directly under the grate that holds the wood. would it be acceptable to use this chase-way to run my pipe? Thanks Kevn

I need to take 2 water supplies and combine them. How to go about doing this? More Info: I live on well water and have a couple systems conditioning/filtering the water. My main water goes thru the Iron Breaker 3(remove iron and sulfur smell), then the line T's and one line goes to the water softener which does 95% of the house. The second part of the T goes to a whole house carbon filter which does the sink cold water and fridges(we have 2 kitchens). However, the hardness of our water is 22 and even tho it tastes great, it leaves a lot of residue. We don't like drinking soft water nor think it's the healthiest option. What I would like to do is combine the soft water and carbon filtered water on the cold kitchen lines. Following? Make sense? LOL Can I just "T" the lines back and it'll basically be a 50/50 mix? Or should i put some sort of control valves/mixing valves inline to control the mixing? Ideally I'd like to mix the water to achieve a 5 hardness. Thanks for any help!
