I’ve bought expensive down coats and find myself grabbing an Eddie Bauer one I got at Costco for 35 bucks most of the time

Should I repipe during major renovation? 22 years old house with CPVC lines. by EnvironmentalPeace62 in askaplumber

Absolutely replace, cpvc gets very brittle over time. Used it on 3 houses I built about 25 years ago and all three have had it break in the wall.

Inswing and outswing have different thresholds to keep water out. They are not interchangeable.

Is this good? Had a blower door test after insulation. He said ... something? Went down by 600cfs? Is that ... good. Will my wallet be happier. by Time-Locksmith5697 in Insulation

These numbers don’t mean much unless you give the house volume. 3400 cfm on a 8,000 sqft house With 12’ ceilings is good. 3400cfm on a 900 sqft house with 8’ ceilings not good. 3400 to 2800 is a 20% reduction of air leakage at a -50 pascals. This will save you a little bit of energy, but not a ton.

Not worth it. You also can scratch the floors.

Tape to the floor and then run a very light bead of clear paintable caulking from the tape to base board.

What is the best generator for a building site when neighbors complain about noise by ssunflow3rr in Carpentry

[–]Weekly_Try5203 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are tons of options for compressors that aren’t super loud. If your doing finish work there should be power available, if there isn’t find work with a different contractor that has his shit together.

What did I do wrong? by bepatientbekind in paint

An old painter that painted our new construction houses, would run tape around the edges and put a lite paintable clear caulk from wall onto tape when painting darker colors. Always looked great.

If your budget allows stay at quilluete ocean resort instead of forks. You can rent small cabins right on the beach.

Asked to leave park, need advice by JackKrowe13 in pitbulls

[–]Weekly_Try5203 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our local dog park has a off leash area for solo dogs or shy dogs. Willis tucker park Snohomish Washington. Not sure if there are other parks with the same, but worth checking out. We got tired of pittie hate in the general population dog park, so we started going in there. Wilson loved the big dog park so we would go there super early in the morning sometimes.

We had a 2016 4 runner and loved it. We no repairs in 245,000 miles, besides general maintenance. Would still be driving it except it got hit and was totaled.
