Now they have a drug called Maronal (sp) that is dope in a pill form, so Bill does not need to inhale, just swallow!

Re: Its Raining On The Stairs.


Thanks Poolman, nice looking features.
I am thinking something real contempory,similar to what Doug had seen except putting the slate behind the glass. We are putting frameless (minimal metal frame) glass rails on the interior and exterior landing. Slate is being used in the house so that is a good product, my issue now besides design is maintainability for cleaning and servicing. It is in a stair well, the home owner will need to purchase those fancy stairwell ladders for who ever is servicing.
This is going to be interesting to see how this plays out. It is not really a item you can pick up the phone and ask to have made or done. It looks like it is going to involve Plumbing, Tile, Mechanical, Carpenters and glass. Someone is going to need to re-do the budget, Bigtime......

I believe those are napoleon waterfalls. They are just decorative. As far a waterfalls indoors the new hearst building in NYC uses an indoor waterfall to regulate indoor temperatures. It is very large

Napolean is an option, the discussions with the customer have been directed at this product for simplicity but as you said, it is decrotative as best. This is the reason for my post...

Re: Its Raining On The Stairs.


I'm new to the forum...very new.
Name's Mark, licensed plumber.
I see the topic on this thread has wandered a little...I like where it wandered to.
Also glad to see a message board with guys who have a sense of humor.
As far as building tropical rainforests with waterfalls indoors goes...I'll stick with service and normal everyday remodels here.
