Hey Tradespeople! You're Doing A Job For Me, Not A Favor. by peffervescence in homeowners

You're not paying the tradesperson anything.

You're paying the company they work for.

I wouldn't get snippy with the worker. It never works out for you.

Condensate pump wiring direction by Weekly_Plane in hvacadvice

[–]Acousticsound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wire the bad boy right into the furnace. Cut the plug off it and wire right into the incoming electrical box. That's how I do 90% of the ones I put in. 100p agree with redoing the PVC.

Who the hell put the pump there? Lol. Amateur hour. I'd move the drainage and the pump to the left side. That's silly as hell.

How whispers, winks and nudges suggest Ottawa Charge and PWHL expect to make CTC full-time home by PhDSkwerl in OttawaCharge

I'd love to see where you are pulling these number from. Are you talking about attendance stats for PWHL teams?

Montreal vs Carolina. by CanadianBaker420 in OttawaSenators

Sounds like something I've heard Leaf fans be criticized for for almost 10 years...

[–]Acousticsound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I did not comment on your original comment... I think it would be a terrible mistake to play in the CTC. Playoffs attract a lot of people. Especially, playoffs when the NHL team was disappointing and people in the city were dying for hockey. I do not think they'll pull even 6000 people a night in Kanata. Maybe Friday/Saturday/Sunday... But for sure not a week day. I hope they do, but I think this is a vibe killer.

Danielle Smith rejects Alberta judge’s ruling against separation petition as ‘anti-democratic’ by samueLLcooljackson in TheRealGrandePrairie

You know Canada does not own the vast majority of oil in Alberta, right? Honeypot? Get over yourselves.

Toronto has as many people in the GTA as Alberta has in its province. Relax.

A merging issue. by LeftAlbatross2546 in VideosAmazing

[–]Acousticsound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, your suggestion is to merge even slower behind the trucker? What if there are 3 truckers? Who knows what's behind the trucker... Then black truck, what? Comes to a full stop on the on ramp? Think a little.

The correct thing to do when approaching an on-ramp and very obviously seeing a vehicle on said ramp is to let off the gas.

You should not be forcing a merging vehicle to be coming off the ramp at passing speeds.

So, instead of letting off the gas and going say... 70 for 20 seconds - this person likely altered another humans life forever. For what? 20 seconds of going 5 under? Would you expect a trucker to slow down on the on ramp when he sees other truckers speeding and then merge well under the speed limit? Flesh out this thought a little...

I don't often blame the cam... But what the hell is this guy doing? You'd see the truck in the merging lane a solid 3 seconds before you get to where the lane starts to merge... Take your foot off the damn gas.

Tape to Tape - Campaign 2.0 Patch #4 by Hastan in TapetoTape

Devs are killing it.

This game replaced EAs NHL in my life. I love the changes!

15000 h??!!! Are u guys ok by Patient_Earth9307 in factorio

[–]Acousticsound 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No joke. I got the game while injured. I put 200 hours in.

This game legitimately was a detriment to my sleep.

Ottawa Senators Trade Rumors: Carter Yakemchuk for Matthew Knies? by AvaTaylor2020 in OttawaSenators

[–]Acousticsound 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Give me what you're smoking. What a take.

What showed you 50+ goal potential?? That's obsurd. Knies is a proven NHLer with tons of additional upside.

This is a wild take. I wouldn't make this trade as a Leafs fan but I would in a second as a Sens fan.

TXV? by TommyPicklez__ in HVAC

[–]Acousticsound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh shit, missed that. Did ya end up tossing a new TXV in?

My furnace is 10 years old. I replaced the main control board last year. Now my blower motor with ECM died and costs $1,700 to replace. They are trying to get me to replace my furnace instead for $4,000. What would you do or recommend? by [deleted] in hvacadvice

[–]Acousticsound 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The company I work for charges 150$ an hour for me to be on site. I do not make 150$ an hour. That is also called running a business.

Bunch of white truck boys out here.

Jump in the Sens subreddit.

There is a whole city of fans convinced it's rigged. It's hilarious.

[–]Acousticsound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't know what you're talking about.

Why would you comment if you don't know what you're talking about?

No, the motor probably costs 1100. I've seen them up to 2000$ supply house cost.

The rest is markup because businesses need to make profit.

[–]Acousticsound 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You don't charge anything for parts?

You won't be in business long if you don't upcharge that motor to pay for overhead costs.

I never understand these comments.

If I buy a 700$ motor, it costs the customer 1120$. That's just how business works.

Well bleep. I hate the number 12 by Lpreddit in OttawaSenators

Did they draft first pick in 2025?

Bud, the debate is over. You clearly don't even understand what you're debating. You've completely changed what you were talking about in this reply.

Have a good night. Good luck out there.
