• Always take care to protect your eyes when working with power tools and tubing— wear safety glasses. Take care to brace
the electric drill in such a way that it cannot “kick” back if it should hit a nail or obstruction.
• Consult your local building code concerning local regulations for the drilling of floor joists. As a rule, you should never drill
within the first 6” of the end of any joist, nor should you drill a joist anywhere other than in its exact vertical center. If it is
absolutely necessary to drill joists, drill where they are supported by walls which are close together (to the left and right of
where you intend to drill, such as hallways). Consult the building code for your safety assurance.
• Keep your can of PVC glue inside a small open box during installation, to prevent spillage.
• Whenever drilling, always check for plumbing and electrical wiring behind, above and below your
target area.
• Have a qualified electrician install all high voltage wiring to prevent any electrical mishaps.
