Why didn't you put a union between the connect at the bottom of the tank and the pipe you screwed into the bottom of the tank ? Without the union somewhere between the tank and where it goes into the other fittings you can't just replace the tank without taking every thing back apart . The tank is going to have to be replace before the fitting go bad . The best place to put the union is just on the out side of the tank opening where its easy to get to .
The main reason plumbers don't like the one way valve is it can stick closed and you can burn out the pump . This is no reason for the valve to be there in the first place . It serves no purpose . Water will not flow back out of your house because on the bottom of the pipe in the well is a one way valve .
sprinkler systems are not part of the domestic water system, the street tap may be the same , fire sprinkler systems are seperated from the domestic water supply at the house with a fire sprinkler riser.
You moved a lot of dirt and while it looked loose, some of it had roots or rocks and that causes stresses and unfortunately a break. Your repair looks good , thanks for showin it.
Can I wire a double gain outlet from one 240 circuit but use two 240 outlets next to each other and just run a pigtail to the next outlet without having to use wirenut just hot to next outlet it has two sides on each screw?
Your dremel just needs new motor brush and springs. It’s considered a consumable like a Bolt is in an AR-15. They just wear out eventually. I usually have to replace them once a year. You unscrew those big flat head style plastic round flat screw on both sides of the dremel. Unscrew it and remove the existing motor brushes and install new ones. They are about $10 for a set.
Everything looked good until he showed using 8/3 & 10/3 as if they were 8/2 & 10/2! He’s continuing the bare ground through each box but not using the bare ground as the actual ground! He’s using the neutral wire as the ground and not re-designating the neutral as the ground! This is odd as he should’ve just used 8/2 & 10/2 and been done with it and saved one conductor and the money too! This way he’s done it incorrectly the white should’ve been capped off in each box. The bare ground is the only wire to be used as ground at each receptacle! He used the neutral at each receptacle as a ground and terminated it at the panel as neutral. This makes each piece of equipment bonded instead of grounded and this is not to any code since the late 90’s.
Something that most people don't realize is that you don't have to bend the boards to install them. The majority of wood deck trailers have a stitch welded strap over the boards on one end or the other. All you have to do is cut those welds, take the strap off and then weld it back on after you lay the boards in place.
Couple of things I would suggest here, for one never just dump conduit in a trench without having "bell ends" in place to keep out the dirt or at least tape the ends. Second you really should have used marking tape a foot down from finished grade so that anyone digging there in the future can see that there's an electrical conduit buried there. I would also scrape the top a few inches at a time where you know there's water lines or any other lines to prevent what you did here.
Thanks for making this video ! I have owned the same model dryer for the last ten years. A few days ago I noticed the thumping sound and discovered a crack in the same spot. It's tough to decide whether to invest in a replacement part vs repair. Did you end up purchasing a new Washer/Dryer set ?
Nope I ended up replacing the drum, in the dryer about a year after I fixed the crack, the first time. And that was over five years ago and its worked great ever since.
Digging up a pool my pool company came across the main power conduit and now the nightmare begins. California is not easy to work with. Now I have a hole in my backyard and no end in sight. Your video provided a lot of information as to what goes into this stuff. Thank you!
All implements need to be strapped down independently by law. So strap the backhoe, strap the box blade. The bucket is a big disaster the way you have it. Strap the darn thing down bro. Insanity? And use four chainsaws instead of three, 45 degrees on all four points. The DOT would have a field day if you got pulled over like this. Probably set you back $600 plus on multiple tickets. Buy some more chains and get her done, Let’s Go !!!
100% This guy is lucky he's never been pulled over or had his load come off his trailer, he's in complete violation of DOT regulations for hauling this kind of load.
Could you please send me the parts list for the ventilation system that you put in your garage that is fantastic and I want to do it in mine! Thanks for your time. Great video!
The application you’re referring to is for shallow wells only. The well that this is being installed is over 180 feet. And as such, there’s a check valve at the bottom there’s a check valve 100 feet up the pipe. There’s a check valve at the top of the well and there’s a check valve in the pump house. To prevent loss of prime, air hammer and ruining the bladder inside. The pressure tank.
What are the rules for placement? I want to move mine a little bit to create space for a longer car. Right now it's sorta in front of both my water heater and HVAC. I want to move it to the left in front of only the water heater, and then back a bit toward the water heater in order to create more room in the garage. Would that be allowed? I guess that'd leave the HVAC exposed.
Good video. Those attachments front and back should be secured, at least by a rachet strap, if not a chain and binder. Dont teach people a halfway to do things....
Id bet to back grade with bucket without the tooth bar, a person could attach the tooth bar with hitch pins instead of bolts. It fits pretty snug from what i see.
you did a great job prepping everything for a professional install. My only question is the direction of pressure release valve. Do you plan to re-route it away from back of cabinet? great job! I'm facing this now.
Ok im 2:35 in and im going to say it's either bad packing inside the boom cylinder, or the relief valve in the main loop is faulty???? Ok let me finish watching and see if I'm correct
