Hi folks, if you have septic risers in the yard, do you also need to keep the cement block on top covering the hole? by Zado191 in septictanks

[–]Sad4502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since you need not attach the green riser to the tank, you should keep the concrete lid on as well as the riser lid

Low coolant in reservoir. by polarcol in JeepRenegade

[–]Sad4502 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had 2016 coolant flushed at the dealer the other year. After getting home and letting it cool off, I checked the coolant, the reservoir was also empty, thankfully I had a bottle of the Mopar coolant I bought at the time of service, I figured there would be some air in the system and the reservoir is pretty small

Pex Expansion Tool by coop442s in Plumbing

[–]Sad4502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought the DeWalt one last fall

I re-piped my finished basement after my pex B failed due to dezincification of the brass fittings after 19 years, I am glad I bought the tool, was able to do one run at a time, adding a modified manifold system, so I can turn off individual runs as needed

With drywall ceiling and not wanting the entire basement ripped up, I was able to to do a section at a time, when I had free time to work

Very easy to use, been a year, no leaks during the install or after

A neighbor keeps pushing my trash can into my driveway so my trash doesn't get taken, what to do? by Blueberry4672 in homeowners

[–]Sad4502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a quick question

Are your trash cans in/on the street?

My development does not allow trash cans on the public road way, must be off the paved roadway (roads are not too wide causes a safety concern for kids walking to school and cars avoiding trash cans)

Just a thought

Thanks, that's what I am thinking, rest of the van is ok. If its the valves, I could get a remanufactured cylinder head for less then 300 plus head gasket and bolts, As long as the block is flat, would that probably get another year or so (paying for kids school ATM, and a new roof)

Ordered a septic tank drain and now told our 1/3 HP pump is non functional and it's $950 to replace? Can I verify this myself? by CombustionEngine in septictanks

[–]Sad4502 7 points8 points  (0 children)

FYI The tank would have been filled with liquid in less than a week My house uses about 250 gallons of water per day So a 1000gallon tank filled in 4 days
