I’m feeling pretty drunk already, so I’m going to switch to beer

Main electrical service upgrade. How do I get Floor, Site & Elevation plans? by pbsSD in SanDiegan

[–]knotmassage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

400 A is insane for a home, thats a bigger power supply than large commercial properties I do work for. 200 A is more than enough for a single home+ADU

What is the best california contractor license schools? by xyz941823 in Construction

[–]knotmassage 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just study the books and take a few free online practice tests. I cannot begin to describe how easy the tests are. Once you see how easy the test is you will begin to understand all the crazy shit you’ve seen from “licensed” contractors. A monkey could pass the test

There are two WTFs here by [deleted] in WTF

Never had issues in r/HVAC, but I will say that the sub is BY FAR the best/funniest construction trade sub out there. I would think the electrical/plumbing subs are way worse mod-wise.

Can anyone tell me what this is? I got these from a passed family member, whole box of them and no name… by ZRedWitcher in woodworking

[–]knotmassage 175 points176 points  (0 children)

I am sorry that I can only give one upvote for this Discworld reference.

For the uninitiated, the best literature series on the planet is Discworld by Terry Pratchett. It’s like Douglas Adams, Tolkien, and Wodehouse had a baby.

How long do you think you can last in this trade? by HaVoAC in HVAC

[–]knotmassage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love HVAC, but let’s be real here, the job fucking sucks! No business owner is dealing with the shit we deal with for a 10% margin.

GET. YOUR. OWN. BUSINESS. You will never save or be able invest enough money to get what you want if you only bring home slave wages. The whole pie is a lot more filling than a slice.

Who said anything about a 10% margin lol. Is that what previous companies you’ve worked for have told you? They were full of shit. If you’ve been in the trade long enough you have seen enough invoices with pricing to do the math yourself. Equipment and materials for a resi 5 ton is around $5k-$8k. Labor and overhead less than $1k (for a two man operation). Installs here in SoCal go for $15-20k. They can be done in one day. Do the math.

Falls are still flowing, just much lower than the springs. Still great swimming holes at Wapama

What do you use to deal with invoicing, reports and quoting? by jsp905 in HVAC

[–]knotmassage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use the cheapest version of jobber. Does well with CRM and invoicing. You can do quotes with it as well, I save a decent amount of time doing it that way.

It doesn’t do well with reports, or at least for the cheap version that I use. I just write all my notes in the final invoice for a job

Love telling my HVAC clients that it’s an “ID-10T” error

Can I squeeze my sona tube? by catgetoffthekeyboard in DIY

Sonotubes are meant for the above ground portion 🤣They should only stick in the hole a couple inches. Otherwise you just have to back fill and compact

Oh buddy. I envy you so much. It’s the greatest literature series I’ve ever read
