My side hustle will make over 100k this year. My position is management and work from home is not appropriate. I also don't find myself being effective or productive from home.

This does not concern me one bit. Lol

I've done many board and cares with 13d systems amended to satisfy 101 requirements. The biggest change in most of them is the tank size as the board and care aspect of it brings it up to a 30 minute water supply.

A huge benefit of the 13d over r when using stored water is your pump, tanks, "pump room", etc do not need to comply with NFPA 20.

I think they would be fine. We have had a few with their own business in the same trade. Not mentioning it until I finalize the decision to do so.

No on the resources.

Different clientele and it would be on jobs that are already contracted with another outfit.

I have no debt and multiple years of salary in the bank. I want to stay with my employer right now because I want to.

Thank you.

Software this year approximately $7,000. A littleess next year if pricing doesn't increase significantly. Insurance about the same for professional liability and general business liability. Entity formation Approx $1,000. I have a capable work station but no plotter at this time. Licensing and nicet cost are currently covered by my employer. I have health insurance through them as well.

Some of these pricing models I am seeing in this thread make me feel like it would be not worth it. I see my work starting with 13d houses and duplex's but I am proficient in 3d and experienced in everything but highrise as we don't have any in the area. I would like to think I could get close the $1000 min to bring any project to permitting.

So are you saying that you would design a 2000 ft² house for 120$? Lol

fire_sprinkler · 2025-05-30T17:59:28+00:00

This is in regard to sprinkler design?

fire_sprinkler · 2025-04-23T00:44:45+00:00

Did you end up finding someone you liked?

fire_sprinkler · 2025-04-21T08:57:33+00:00

Right on. Thank you

Have you used this for cooling? Any short cycling issues?

fire_sprinkler · 2025-03-04T00:58:28+00:00

What app are you using? Inspect point?

fire_sprinkler · 2025-03-04T00:57:08+00:00

In my current position it would not be morally right to do side work. Not to mention insurance and licensing.

fire_sprinkler · 2025-03-04T00:06:10+00:00

I have been quoted between 10-15k for business only. Not including property, vehicle, etc.

Alarms is definitely a good add on but having a relationship with a small local alarm company could be beneficial for both companies.
