I live in Florida. I’m no stranger to roaches. Last time I had roaches was because of the “electric box” attached to my couch! That controls the electric features on the couch! I literally got roaches only because of that box they love electronics they love PlayStations! Trust me it’s electronics they LOVE

The biggest complaint I've heard about heat pumps is "they can't keep up in the cold". To me, this sounds like their system was not properly sized, and now heat pumps, and geo-thermal is getting a bad reputation, not because they are junk, but because they were improperly sized for the installation.

What about this amazing thing in the basement drain how do you tell it will not go back into the house. My drain seems like it just goes down 6 inches and I feel the bottom must have a T but what about a P trap where is it located. Thank you.BTW I had a plumber here in Canada installing a new hot water tank and I asked him how much to snake it since he had it in his truck and he said 450 !!! that is crazy I said will take you 20 minutes he laughed and said " I know it is crazy isn't it but that is the going rate " Wild Isaid I would rent one myself for 45 bucks instead of paying you a thousand bucks an hour

It's difficult to know what and where things are located along the main line in your basement. I would be very cautious using it in your basement unless you know your exact plumbing layout underground. A snake may be a better tool for that job.

I live in South Florida on a boat and I have a problem with palmetto bugs. They are giant roaches about an inch and a half long sometimes even a little bigger. You're pretty much immune to raid and real kill and stuff like that they walk off after 3 days. You can get him a heavy coat of spray paint and that'll knock them down for about 3 days then they get up and walk off and you got a golden roach running around. I have sprayed them with bleach inside of plastic container to put the lid on it and waited 12 hours and when I opened them up there just as Lively as ever. They chew up styrofoam cups and holes in heavy duty Reynolds Wrap that are clean and have never been used. I think they're just bored.. tell me how to do them without killing myself or my rabbits. And you will have thousands of new friends and maybe even become rich.

Advion and Advion Evolution will immediately attract roaches. Usually it gets eaten before drying out, but if you have a few roaches you can use soda lids to hold gel and add a bit of washer to keep it moist. put these behind the fridge, under toaster, near anything that gets hot like your router or coffee maker.

Would this work for cleaning out the outside drain pipe that carries (and clogs up) silt from my basement water guard system. There is a secondary discharge pipe that this pipe "T"s into about 25 feet down the pipe. The first section is wear the silt ahs clogged the pipe.

It's worth a try. Corrugated drain pipe isn't really meant to be under pressure, which is what most people use for gutter drains.

AFTER Hiring A NASTY 'professional' painter For My Renovation.. (He Didn't Finish the Job I'd Contracted him For.. He Did 'Half-Azz' Job.. AND BROUGHT IN THISE LARGE ROACHES WITH HIS 'BOXED SUPPLIES & EQUIPMENT'.. ABOUT 3 WEEKS AFTER 'HE VANISHED'.. I SAW (1) ROACH.. THEN (2).. & SO ON.. AT THE TIME.. I ONLY HAD PINE-GLO (generic of) PINE-SOL.. IT'S AN 'EXCELLENT CLEANER & BACTERIAL DISINFECTANT'.. USING THE 'PINE-GLO IN A STRONG SPRAY BOTTLE' I WAS AMAZED THAT IT ACTUALLY 'KILLED' THE ROACHES 'ON CONTACT'!! I AM NOW USING THE GEL-BAIT & 2 BOXES OF THE COMBAT-MAX BAITED TRAPS.. HOWEVER, I HAVE STILL FOUND THE OCCASIONAL LONE, LARGE ROACH WHICH I HIT WITH REPEATED SHOTS OF THE 'PINE-GLO' (OR PINE-SOL) WITH THE SAME EFFECTS.. IT KILLS ROACHES (& ANTS) - ON CONTACT!! IT'S BY-FAR THE BEST ROACH & ANT 'KILLER' IVE EVER USED!!..

So help me understand how this is So Cheap!!! when instead of digging in your yard with that excavator , you could be out making $300 per hour working it for profit. ( no matter how you attempt to slice and dice it , it is more expensive for this system, here in North Carolina we have very long spring and fall, so our use of heat or cooling is minimal which further compounds the total cost ) We also have paid off solar on our roof which makes our electric bill about $20 per month since I use the grid as my battery. I will say though that with that You Tube title, you got about 3 million clicks on this video, good for you and I wish you many years of service with your system.

Great Video, thank you for sharing. A couple of Question. One. On the back fill of the trenches. did you pour sand or anything prior to the soil. I have a lot of 4" minus rock. Im worried that it will puncture the lines. I have a lot that is in a flood zone. A new well that have a static level of 12' deep. will this be a problem in your design? I was wondering if I went 10' deep would the static water be a problem. I heard you talk about how it helps dissipate the heat. Thank you, Mike
@Challenged1
@Challenged1 15 дней назад
I did not have to use any sand for backfill as I didn't have any aggregate in my soil. If the loops would be sitting in water or highly moist soil at the bottom of your trenches, that is the best case scenario for geothermal.

I have a very slight belly in a basment sewer line that backs up once a year or so. PVC. It is 10ft down the line, still under the house. Would a bladder clear a waste blockage or just poke a small hole though it? I pay $600 for a plumber to jet it.
@Challenged1
@Challenged1 17 дней назад
That's exactly what I would use the bladder for. Clear the blockage, and then flush the line with as much water as you can.

@Challenged1
@Challenged1 23 дня назад
If I remember right, the Seer rating was based on which stage the compressor was in. In low stage, it was around 30, and high, it was around 24. I have no regrets with the system. It's been long enough now, that newer units could be slightly more efficient. I haven't looked into that.

Thanks. nice and lucid. Just replaced my split air con (mini split) with a new model. Comes with an air heat pump which I originally did not want due to all my wood stoves. (Glad to have this alternative due to numerous electrical outages). You explained the operation and ratings well. So much to know. My condenser is on the South side of my solar house (only direct sun gain). In the summer have an old mirror in front of it to reflect the sun. Now glad to know I should let it be in the sun in the winter for potential use.
