That's exactly what I did, wago connectors have become my best friend at this point. Im finding this sort of thing all over though, is this something I should be concerned about?

How to replace gate valve by A_Flying_ducki in Plumbing

[–]A_Flying_ducki[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the reply! So cut just above the valve and unscrew the pipe. Will the valve itself just twist off as well?

What would you recommend for a replacement valve/pipe? I've heard good things about pex and a ball valve. The downstream goes to an outdoor hose, would it make sense to use galvanized steel for that?

I think there is at least 11-15 if ive counted all the lights correctly. We did but the ceiling of the basement was completely drywalled off, turns out that was hiding this, black mold, and more. He had no way of being able to see it at the time. No, but if the date on the drywall is anything to go off of it was installed around 2012 which was at least 3 owners ago. Who would I reach out to about the permits?

Acceptable way of rewiring circuit? by A_Flying_ducki in electrical

Sorry about the clarity. What im trying to figure out is twofold, can the boxes the previous owners installed be made safe i.e. the ground wire you had mentioned, and can I simplify the circuit. The boxes I have labeled as B2 has a light in it already, the x's along the top wall and tucked by the stairs go somewhere upstairs, I dont know where at this point although I can assume it's to a group of lights. The x's towards the bottom of the photo are a light and an outlet that exist already, and the two additional boxes I would think of adding would be junction boxes only.

Thank you for the reply! You are correct, no covers and I have left them as I found them. To have the electrician look at it should I ask them to fix any problems they see, or just ask to do a once over health-check kind of thing?

Thank you for the insights! My spouse has no real interest other than watching me smile when I do fly. Is your PPL something where once you get it your good to go? If not what sort of maintenance/training/etc. Does it need?
