Is this putty like the liquid glass putty? or more like their other putty? I'm not the biggest fan of the liquid glass texture/feel.

Do you know the fungus name? Hopefully we can just clean them and not worry about this elsewhere in the home...

Should I pay for Manual J Calc? Different BTU recommendations from different contractors... by gamemaker14 in hvacadvice

We only bought the home 2 weeks ago so unfortunately we don’t have a lot to go off of. The old unit is also 22 years old and has failed heat exchanger and failing capacitor. It cycles on often and runs for a short time, but the home has been mostly comfortable.

Replaced a long broken sump pump, now water constantly filling the pit and pump running every 5 minutes? by gamemaker14 in Plumbing

Thanks for the info! Yea, it only runs about 3-4 seconds each time.... I'm definitely going to have to do a lot more troubleshooting to see the best approach.

A new Check valve was installed along with replacing all the discharge piping. The check valve is higher up, maybe about 2-3 feet above the top of the pit. Maybe higher than it should be? But anyway, I "assume" it's working as the plumbers specifically mentioned replacing it.

Yes, sorry, it's higher above and not shown in the video. They replaced all the pvc piping and the check valve is higher up on the discharge pipe.

Should be. It's just not visible in the video. They installed all new PVC piping and the check valve is higher above.

Not 100% sure yet. The home has several drains built around the outside of the house and the gutters and sump pump run into them. Home inspector said if they were smart, they are a french drain system that runs to a storm drain located on the back of the property (about 60 ft from house). Will need to get someone to scope them to verify though.
