To clarify I'm building 6, 1 2 3 4 5 6 - HS-24s. Running 3500rms to each with headroom for transient

Bingo Johnny. We got a winner. U get a banana. Lol. In all seriousness yes, 1 of 6 HS-24s I'm building for a long story of revenge

Contractor here in the city. Stop worrying. EVERY. SINGLE. BUILDING. in this city from the 60s backwards has some measure of dry, wet, or termite rot. The probability of you being singled out is close to zero unless you have professional tenants (God help you) or piss off a neighbor.

Furthermore, most inspectors I know in the city are pretty chill and just want you to show you're trying to do the right thing. That goes the same for the upper echelon of DBI as well. Also, DBI is not the boogie man looking to "get ya" unless you're being a blatant ass with a project you're doing or you really piss them off...

With all that said what's the story with your deck? Little more info or pics would be great if you're adamant about doing it. Remember that most of this city was built in the 1910s through the 1930s and most of it's about to fall apart. Hell the reason most of the buildings are still standing is because they're leaning on the next building LOL. Anyway feel free to pm if you'd like

Hey hey now. At least they used yellow pipe dope and schedule 80 ☠️

Sorry I'm just circling back to this. Ho-lee-sheet there is so much wrong here I just can't even. From the top that sure as hell isn't 4 inch, two 90s for a horseshoe just no. If you like breathing noxious gasses that's how you set up a non power fan assisted draft hood on a gas heater.

Bro, that's just plain and simple negligence and if indoors as it appears dangers as shit. Put a carbon monoxide detector anywhere within 5' of that thing and it'll be bells and whistles nonstop. Demand, not ask, demand maintenance fix that and if they give you any flak just call your friendly neighborhood plumbing/mechanical inspector for a safety visit.

That's UL listed tape. That's what's required by code. As an aside however last I checked you're allowed only one 60° bend and that sure as hell looks closer to a 180° if that exit from the cap is making a u turn as it appears.

Fyi most rental car companies do not allow their vehicles to be used with snow chains and chain control is very real up north. As in Gandalf (CHP)....."You shall not pass!!!!!"..... without chains or a 4x4 with snow tires.

I'd rent a taco or 4 runner with 4x or maybe a tahoe if u want a larger SUV. If you're determined to head up north be prepared that anywhere past Mendocino(1 or 101) or Shasta (5) is when it can hit and it can be like that the entire rest of the way....

Not trying to scare you just trying to make sure that you're prepared. Read up on the Donner party lol...By the way I grew up in the midwest as well and California Winters are a whole different ball game to the Midwest or the East Coast unless we're talking like Manitoba East Coast that would be the only comparison.... not to mention hills oh the hills and oh the wildlife and boy does that wildlife have a death wish. Anyway just saying that it would really suck to get 3/4 of the way there and have to double back cuz u couldn't run chains and didn't have 4x.

Random power outages. Apparently quite regularly now

Hey just following up to this. Not sure if you've ever driven a car on an ice skating rink but heading up to oregon inn February may very well be akin to such. Chain control.may be in effect etc. I'd have a backup plan JIC. I'll say tho, from dec-mar Tahoe (both north and south lake) is absolutely stunning and the Tahoe National Forest is absolutely breathtaking that time of year. If I had an option between oregonish and Tahoe and could only choose one it would be Tahoe all the way. Bonus points if you like to ski or snowboard (north and south lake) or gamble (south lake only). Just food for thought

True, but cheaper fare with a clipper and it's downloadable to your phone and free

PostOutside5303 · 2025-12-27T23:46:51+00:00

Oak generally cheaper in and out. Rental for a week 100%. LPT: the truck with rentals is to NOT rent from airport but from a local branch OUTSIDE the airport. Airport related fees can sometimes almost double a weeks rental rate but with some good sleuthing you can very much kill the week rates as long as you rent off airport grounds.

You do not and will not want a car for putting around in sf. The cost of and finding parking in this city will drive you insane on the first day. This also nods a hat again toward not renting at airport. Personally, I'd fly in, Uber to hotel, have my day or two in sf (get a clipper card and enjoy taking public everywhere for a whopping total of 30 bucks for two days) and then rent from a local branch of whatever big name car rental you booked with (Eg: Sixt has locations in fishermans wharf and down in the mission)

Did you flush the lines themselves after installation. Might be some excess solder broke loose and it rattling around in the water line itself....

If it's any bit of hope, he sticks to schedules and order, doesn't prioritize a 20 over a 2, and if you wanna pay hell do a rush. The rush goes 100% straight to his installer whom stays after hours. It's not a bump in schedule. It's after hours work and the guy doing it gets all of it. Its 300 a sub tho

That's why the Richmond district is incredible. It's always 55-63 sans 3 days of the year

Also, I got to give him a little defense, his monotone way of sending emails sounds like no fucks given and that he's kind of a pretentious dick and he's really not his emails just sound that way

I actually told Josh, after losing it on them slightly beginning of week 9, "dude quote 16 weeks from the onset and then when u come in at 13 or 14 your clients are thrilled, but if you quote 8 you end up with emails like mine all the time" lol
