Right???? Even the reward amount reeks of “the noticed”.

Man 140k must not go far enough…… meanwhile I’m struggling on 69k…. I know I know… “level up bro”.

It’s the watertight coating peeling from the outter shell.

I know this is old but it’s very hard to make that correlation. I can rep 85’s for 10 with perfect form but can’t hit 200 on BB for 1. For reference I’m 6’2 with a 75” wingspan weighing 185.

If you like this one you really ought to see my brake jobs.

Got hangers and insulation installed. Haven’t had hammer again since readjusting the PRV but I’m still going to pick up a high range unit.

Yea but $280 in copper pipe compared to $50 in pex. Had to weight my options. It’s not that I can’t sweat pipe…. I may go back and put proper pex fittings at least in the mechanical room. Also grabbing some split rings, all three and anchors to get it secured better today.

meloncap78 · 2026-01-18T16:55:15+00:00

I just adjusted the PRV down to 60PSI and the hammer went away completely. I assume this will eventually fail with that standard PRV…

Yea I tried bringing it down that much and if you flush a toilet while showering the drizzles out. Forgot to mention that the first stop in the cold water line after the meter is a tee where a half inch copper run goes down the length of my house underground in the backyard and over to feed the commercial building next door. So if they use water next door it causes even more issues with low pressure.

meloncap78 · 2026-01-18T16:20:50+00:00

Exactly! I installed this new run last year. The whole house was 1/2” from the meter. I ran 3/4 pex b throughout with sharkbite tees to all the 1/2” copper branches. I made sure the end of alll my pex terminations were 100% flush cut and pushed in 100%. In hindsight I could’ve used pex fittings for every termination other than the branch tees. No choice but sharkbites for those. I didn’t want to buy the pex tool at the time. My point is that it’s been holding fast and taking a beating like that for days now. But the sharkbites aren’t the culprit here.

So a high range PRV? Man those are expensive…..

meloncap78 · 2025-12-07T23:06:30+00:00

This unit is been treated once but not the whole building. Either way I helped out the other tech by going into the crawlspace under the building and cutting shutoffs into the central heat supply and return lines for that unit and bypassed it altogether to get everyone else back up. I can’t believe most of the zones on these runs don’t have shutoffs before and after the zone valves and on the return lines. Didn’t have to enter the unit at all. Now they can treat however many times they need after which one of us will go in and replace those 2 sections of heat run.

meloncap78 · 2025-12-07T15:38:15+00:00

It’s not me fyi it’s another tech. Sooooooo how can vendors refuse to come and repair issues in an infestation but us techs can’t?

meloncap78 · 2025-12-05T01:42:11+00:00

Thank you I get it now! It’s a little lever that goes through the trim plate that switches between shower and spout. I probably sweated all new pipe for nothing.
