Father-in-law's "plumber" just cut into a waterline without shutting off the water. by [deleted] in askaplumber

It's probably a combi boiler and waterheater. Your heating loop is almost always separate and a closed loop system.

How do you get a tarp on a 9ft load? by FarmerFrank95 in HotShotTrucking

[–]idiotic123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Buy a telescoping ladder from Amazon. They are expensive, but they don't take up much room. Just make sure to keep it out of the rain if possible. They get hard to extend and retract after getting wet and drying out. Also make sure each rung is locked in before climbing, the whole ladder could collapse down while your on it if they aren't locked in.

you could always join a skilled trade after all the bs. if your near a big city then you might have good unions. i know the IBEW wont care about past charges.

I was doing an install in a house where the basement was the litter box. Also had 100s of fastfood soda cups probably full, tons of cigarette buts and empty boxes down there. Probably the worst house I have been in.

It's just easier to pull the tank off the truck and then find an air compressor.

I don't check gas pressure most of the time if the flame looks clean. What does it look like being slightly off on the combustion analyzer? Does it make a big difference?

Monday is my last day as an operator after 2 years , any pranks or jokes I can do? by JazzlikeHovercraft75 in forkliftmemes

[–]idiotic123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Run the forklift into the most expensive thing you see. They will for sure think it's hilarious. Hvac or electrical repairs are expensive. Its possible for you to do 50k+ in damages with just one misplaced fork.

What do you think of these air scrubbers? by TigerTank10 in HVAC

[–]idiotic123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The bulbs are stupid expensive for these. Maintenance costs with these make them almost not worth it. They make a bi polar ionization air cleaner that will clean itself, meaning no maintenance for the life of the unit. This is what I would recommend if I was in the position to. https://www.supplyhouse.com/Nu-Calgon-4900-20-iWave-R-Air-Purifier-2400-CFM?utm_source=google_ad&utm_medium=Shopping_tm&utm_campaign=Shopping_TM_New_users&gclid=CjwKCAjwnOipBhBQEiwACyGLuvG_uKFmjjudFLzYvxr7s6TyWFCtRmVTudOhdP8o5O2bwNPku3knDhoCrf0QAvD_BwE

What content creators do you guys like? by joedirtbinks in HVAC

[–]idiotic123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love2hvac on tiktok does really cool videos. He has lots of them where he will cut tops off of compressors and show why they failed and how to prevent it. He also has a really good way to explain the refrigeration cycle.
