About the author

Editorial Reviews

This is a user-friendly manual, easy to read, carefully broken into thirteen chapters...what research!

RALPH: The Review of Arts, Literature, Philosophy,

The reader will appreciate the way Burns is so thorough in his explanations... A good how-to book provides answers to problems you haven't even thought of, and [Cottage Water Systems does] exactly that.
