or you could just dump out the standing water
Thank you! I like when customers try diy things first) then I have some real problem to fix
Nah, most of them aren't calling you because they don't need help. Mostly pretty easy stuff.
👍👍👍🔥🔥
I want to install a light switch and outlet like you show. Do I break the jumper bar or not? What happens if you don't remove the jumper bar? what happens if you remove the jumper bar. What is the difference in operation? You are explaining like we are all union electricians local 3. P.S. you have smart hands.
Safety glasses don’t stop splashing to your eyes because the fluid can bounce up under them. Use goggles
For me, it’s more practical to just buy the Adapters… I’m losing that old battery anyhow so I might as well buy an adapter and not ruin my newer batteries
I know I'm late, but you forgot to just get rid of that nozzle. Needs to be the old flex hose that doesn't really flex, but it helps. They sell the vent caps and the flex nozzles as a package deal on some sites. Just be mindful of the gaskets!
Thank you for the tip on the ac, I appreciate your efforts.
Thank you very much for this video! ours is not real dirty BUT I'm going to get some of this and give it a nice cleaning!
I had to wire several outlets in a very old house years ago. Of course, it was dark up in the attic where I was working. Instead of using pieces of wire, I used bright colored sprinkler flags. They have a stiff piece of wire with the flag attached. I just wrapped the flag around the wire and pushed it through the 1/8 inch hole I had drilled in the ceiling and it was so easy to find when I was up in the attic. They are available in packs of 10 or 100 at irrigation stores, or building supplies stores.
Fun! And, no thanks. First I’d never be able to get that in the box. Second, if I want more outlets I’d just plug in an adaptor, or a power strip. And who has need for a temporary pop-out outlet! And fourth, regular outlets look smaller and better.
Why on earth are receptacle boxes soooooo small? They should be the depth of the wall.
To my understanding after watching so many videos on home backup, bonded inverter generator can't be used with the inlet box...am I correct?
Is there something I need to know if I’m adding an outlet from a light switch that is a 3 way switch ?
The Web only had a 53% approval rating, and the second best had 75%. Huh?
I can only speak for myself, I’ve never had an issue. They don’t pay me or sponsor me so I’m just giving you my honest experience. I will say the Web for some reason has become harder to come by and this season I used one of my other favorite cleaners. I made an updated video on it a few weeks ago.
@@HowToHomeDIY Well, that's an honest answer! And reviews aren't always honest, either. Won't you link to the new video?
Good vid ty
Over/under coil is the same technique used for lines when teaching seamanship.
I was just quote over $525 just for a contactor to be replaced. Im all about DIY. Im going to check the contactor myself and replaced it myself if needed..
You state the life cycle of the adult mosquito is only 1-2 weeks and this is simply untrue... for the females. They can live as long as 2 years, even hibernating over the winter months in cold climates... just ask any Alaskan.
No, they don’t live that long. Not even the females.
the typical capacitor costs 25 to 40 bucks wholesale just for the part. Some are 150 bucks just for the part wholesale. NO ONE sells a start capacitor for 11 bucks.
I put the exact price I paid including tax for the capacitor in the video. Bought it on Amazon. So unless these went up a bunch in price since last year, yes they do.
Made that same switch myself, about a year ago. It has proven to be an excellent decision.
How do you provide stress releif for the cable that runs between the boxes? It appears that the chain that pulled the cable up was dropped through a open hole in the switch box and not through a "clamping" opening.
Can i use a RP 7,500 generator ?
It was so easy to install , thank you very much.
7:50 See what he did there? The neutral wires twisted together were too long for the wire nut so he quickly covered it with tape instead of just snipping them and making it fit proper 😂 Bustin ya, like your videos
I'm curious if you think an IR light might be better at focusing on the blood suckers? A low energy layer light for example?
Thank you
Good video, thanks for the info. Am I able to use a transfer switch with a bigger generator? Looking at getting a Westinghouse with up to 14,500 peak and 11,500 running.. sounds like the transfer switch set up is what I would prefer to keep things simple and safe but not clear if that would work with this size generator?
I appreciate you telling us this is something that's available. Personally, not for me, but you're honest about the pros and cons and I respect that 👍
MASSIVE THANK YOU for this video!
I need to know how to clean a carrier evaporator that is natural gas ! Do you have a video of how to ?
Yeah, my capacitor blew yesterday. The guy offered the ‘normal’ capacitor for $300, a’ better’ for $350, and $109 for call. Also tried to see me a ‘start-up kit’ to ‘assist’ startup using diffferentcircuits and part so the coil. I declined. Whole visit for normal capacitor was $410. I knew I could buy one myself, for much less, but it was a Sunday, I was busy, and it’s getting hot!
Believe these receptacles are prone to breaking from people pulling and pushing plugs against that box that pops out.....IMO
Excellent video!
This is easily the most helpful video on the topic of running wires through a house. Incredible how clearly you demonstrate the process.
Thank you!
Excellent video to help out the DIYer in saving on that $150 service call. Thanks
Thanks I saw this before and lost it. Will try it today.
Friggen awesome, love it. Qualifies as a true K.I.S.S. solution.
Mine states to only use water. Any idea why?
If you don't have a leak in your coil or failing compressor you should never have to be forced to replace a unit.
I just put a funnel in my machine gas tank. Take the can fill cap off and pour into the funnel. Job done. I guess you could add a Schrader valve to the back side as a vent. I don't seem to need one.
Cool!!
Save 5 minutes of your time and go here: 5:00 After re-reading my own comment I realized the error of my ways. This content is very good and if you are needing all the granular details of this problem and solution you will enjoy this video. If you are a "know-it-all" like me and just want to "get to da point"... Save 5 minutes of your time and go here: 5:00
😂
Great Video, thanks! 👍👍
Ugh. Create a problem to solve it and sell something overpriced. It's ugly too and inconvenient. A three way adapter works fine for me.
Big time stuff for dummies like me.. thank you!
I replaced my 1-inch filter box with a 4-inch which allows me to use a deep pleat filter at higher MERV without too much pressure loss
Yeah the 4” is the way to go.
Just get a reel
I ran Filtrete 1500 on my 20-year-old furnace, in a 2500 sq ft house, for 12 years and never had a problem. I did have to replace the blower motor once, a temperature sensor, and an exhaust fan motor. But it is a very old furnace. We replaced the filter every 3 to 6 months and kept the fan on continuous.
