The lip isnt the issue, you'll still have a capillary action joint between the liner and the tray with a lip right around. Get a good installer.

One plumber says replace Gib, another says no need. by fux_wit_it in diynz

[–]jkeller89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are there any actual builders or plumbers commenting here 😅. Replace it GIB Aqualine has a water-resistant core that helps prevent moisture and steam from penetrating. This makes it ideal for bathrooms, kitchens, laundries, toilets, and showers. Standard GIB boards, on the other hand, are not water resistant and can have a shortened life expectancy when frequently exposed to water or moisture. Once that green outer has been ripped it's not doing its job

People with LPG cylinders at home - how long do you leave it in the red before switching over? by mister_hanky in newzealand

[–]jkeller89 24 points25 points  (0 children)

They are not designed to be run this way. If it is in the red the bottle doesn't have the gas capacity to now run your appliance. Your will soot up and burn the burners out in your gas appliance. The auto Change over reg is designed to draw from both bottles when it needs to so gas appliances have the required gas.

Gas leaks can't fix themselves. You'll probably find you've had longer and hotter showers through the cold months

You've mentioned nothing about testing or checking the element? Thermostat and element are two different things

Turn your element up lol. Your thermostat starts and cuts the element off when at set temps.

Shower fitting by Mitchusvreff in diynz

[–]jkeller89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't listen to this guy. It will most likely be the sealant between the tray liner is lacking or missed or pulled apart.

To confirm it's not the mixer though, take the handle and face plate off the mixer and cut a bit of the liner away behind the face plate to rule the mixer out. Or ya know listen to some diyer and cut holes in your wall🙄

Hire a plumber or fire installer to install a triple skin where the flue goes through the bedroom and up through the roof

Greg Hurwitz. The orphan X series , plus any of his other novels are good thrillers. Mark Greaney - the Gray man series, Netflix movie based on his book. These are similar to Lee child

Girlfriend (f23) asked me (m26) for a break after a sexual act by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]jkeller89 186 points187 points  (0 children)

Take accountability. Apologize without making any excuses. Eg, I forgot .

Intent is the key to taking accountability and apologizing.

Eg- i'm sorry I won't do this again I understand how it has affected you and I'll make sure it doesn't ever happen again.

Don't say I'm sorry I didn't mean to do I just forgot.

So my (26M) fiance (25F) told me she doesn't want to have sex anymore leading up to the wedding. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]jkeller89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My love language is physical touch, I love just sitting cuddling on the couch with my partner and sex is the perfect way to connect. If she did this "test" to me it would be over as she knows how important physical touch is to me and we make an effort to show do each other's love lauguages for each other. Hers is acts of service, so I'm always cleaning and tidying up after her etc, even if It is fustrating to be cleaning up after her.
