Posted 12 years 10 months ago #34506Less in the winter due to having to shut off the outside faucets to prevent freezing. I have just installed a new hose bib in the carport with a quick shut off (Yes, A Ball-flange for you rude types!) so frequency should increase.
Edit: HEY! That darn spell check changed the proper name of the valve! It should read Ball-Male Chicken.
Spell check must play havoc with the plumbing forums as all they have to talk about is Ball-cocks and nipples! :ohmy:

Posted 12 years 10 months ago #34525I think I have actually spent more time washing and polishing our F this year than I have driving it! I definatly have washed it since I last drove it.
The T16 gets an anual wash to stop it going green.
The ZS tends to get a mega valet before I go to my mother in laws (she is one of those people who dusts the tops of doors and behind radiators) and then gets washed 2 or 3 times a year.
