Hot and cold running water
Hurrah, all the plumbing in one of the gites is finished. We now have a functioning chauffe-eau (electric hot water tank) and taps in the two bathrooms and kitchen.
The chauffe-eau is under the stairs, hence the delay, and it now looks like the control room of a submarine under there with all the various pipes and stop valves. We went a bit over the top with stop taps so we could isolate each of the three bathrooms and the kitchen in the event of a problem in the future. It did complicate things but at least everything works.
