Tricky Tuesday: 4 Ways to Improve Your Small Bathroom

It can be hard to know how to decorate and arrange a small space, especially a bathroom. For the most part, the toilet and the sink are pretty set in stone where they are, so you'll want to try to focus on aspects of the room that you can change, like placement and layout. Check out some cool tips we found helpful when dealing with a small bathroom, below.

One of the costs associated with having a pool is the money it takes to heat a pool. If you are interested in swimming in your pool after the sun goes down or during cooler months, heating your pool is a viable option to consider. Check out some information about how solar hot water collectors can heat your pool. How does it work? Pool water gets pumped through a filter into a solar hot water collector.
