1. Purpose of this site
TheCleverFix.com shares public DIY information, project ideas, and practical references. By using the site, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
2. Information, not advice
Content is provided for general educational and informational purposes only. It is not engineering, electrical, construction, plumbing, medical, legal, financial, or other professional advice. Every home, tool, material, climate, skill level, and project condition is different.
We do not guarantee that a project will perform as described or that it will save energy, money, time, or materials. Confirm measurements, product compatibility, local requirements, and current instructions before acting.
3. DIY safety
DIY work carries risk. Plan before beginning, use tools only as intended, keep a safe workspace, and stop when a task exceeds your knowledge or comfort. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, especially for woodworking and other tasks involving cutting, dust, noise, chemicals, or moving parts.
4. Special systems: power, batteries, water, and air
Off-grid electrical systems and batteries can present shock, burn, fire, and other hazards. Carbon monoxide can be deadly. Fuel-powered generators must run outdoors at least 20 feet from doors, windows, and vents, never inside a home, shed, or garage. Use working carbon monoxide detectors and follow manufacturer safety instructions. Do not use this site as a basis for connecting to, altering, or working on utility wiring.
Water treatment methods depend on the source and the contaminants present. Potable water should be treated and tested with appropriate methods for the actual conditions; do not assume that a general technique makes water safe to drink.
5. Professional help and manufacturer instructions
Consult a qualified professional when a project involves structural work, electricity, gas, plumbing, hazardous materials, permits, inspections, or another specialized risk. Follow the current manufacturer instructions, warnings, ratings, and maintenance guidance for every product and tool you use. Those instructions take priority over general information on this site.
6. Your responsibility and lawful use
You are responsible for deciding whether to attempt a project and for using the site lawfully. Obtain any required permission, permit, inspection, or approval, and follow applicable codes, rules, safety practices, and property or community requirements. Do not use the site in a way that disrupts, harms, or attempts to gain unauthorized access to it or to others.
7. Site content
The site's writing, layout, branding, and original materials are protected by applicable intellectual property rights.
