When we gut-renovated the bathroom, one of the first things we demo'd was some ugly crumbling insulation covering the heat pipe. The previous owners had small children, so that insulation was a necessary safety measure. But I was sure that I could find something nicer looking, fit to be seen outside of the walls.
A whole year went by before I got around to it, though. And in the interim, both Ross and I have scalded ourselves while drying off after a shower. So this year, covering this pipe was top on my list of things to do before cold weather hit and the heat was turned on in our building.
With this weekend turning unseasonably cold for early fall - no time like the present to check this project off my list.
