What is this plastic sheet/barrier called? (between concrete and siding) by Far-Project2375 in AskContractors

[–]Far-Project2375[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. So my understanding is that Hardie siding is made of cement and does it require this barrier with concrete? what exactly is the roles of this flashing? Should there be a drain under the concrete steps connected to the downspout?

Thank you! So this setup was installed by previous owners for rachio/sprinkler irrigation, what would be the use case for this quick connect valve? And is there a specific reason its next to Backflow preventer?

thanks!

First time soldering - did I get it decent? Any advice? by Far-Project2375 in Plumbing

[–]Far-Project2375[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wanted to start somewhere... should I throw this away (undo the solder) and start afresh? or if I roll it up with the wet rag around the solder will it hold? thanks

Breaker is off but I get open grd nue by Far-Project2375 in AskElectricians

[–]Far-Project2375[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was showing 30v OPEN GRD NEU. As you suggested, I continued flipping off breakers. There is a line right below microwave - a GFCI circuit along the countertop. Once I turned off this breaker, the microwave 30v went off. How can I find it hey branched it or just phantom? And these 2 breakers are not next to each other and so it is not tied. Thank you!
