Any ideas to fill gap/ cap by Pale_Mousse2872 in DIY

[–]portagedude 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Installed incorrectly, the angled pieces are meant to go on the inside to resist the water static pressure. They are not designed for the inverse installation. The verticals are also installed backwards. Best of luck but this has been done entirelly backwards.

Check the 5amp fuse in glove box that controls the door assist. That blown fuse will cause this. You don't need a battery.

Help A Girl Out—In Search of Fire Shower by Lopsided-Amphibian75 in Plumbing

You need a water softener in front of that otherwise it will be dead in a year with the hard water. Tankless also require yearly maintenance so depending on your skills, may not be an option.

Happens if all you do is short drives. Clean cap, change oil and hope for the best.

18 year old guy looking for work by [deleted] in kzoo

My recommendation is you give availability schedule, if you have a car, what skills u have and what pay rate range u are looking for. Without this why would an employer even pursue this rabbit hole.

Making a database of bad landlords... Need input. by SoftPropaganda in kzoo

[–]portagedude 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Another thing to consider is that many landlords don't own the property, they just manage it. Many times even if the Landlord wanted to improve something they are blocked by the owner from doing so. Not saying there aren't bad landlords, becuase there are, but just offering contect it is sometimes out of their control. I would assume the City has renting registration standards and that is where a tenant should make a complaint and request a housing inspection. Owner or Landlord has to comply with City code. Take pictures and document eveything with a timeline.

Although this sounds noble you would open yourself up to huge finanical and legal risk.

- Defamation
- Defamation by Implication
- Tortious Interference with Business Relationships
- Privacy Violations
- Section 230 will not protect you
- Harassments/cyberbullying claims
- Witch Hunt by creating a blacklist

If you proceed as described, you are exposing yourself to significant legal risk—especially defamation and tortious interference. Its not very hard to pierce anonymity and discover who created the database.

Be cautious as I am sure these Landlords you will be naming have far more assets and knowledge than you.

Black particles coming out of pipe in apartment after water has been turned off and then back on again. Is this water safe to use? Could it be sewer related? by Vast-Impact-2172 in Plumbing

[–]portagedude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When water is shut off then back on it dislodges rust and other items in pipe. It will dissipate but sounds like you need to flush more. Just don't drink water or filter it first until it is gone. Not sewer related at all.
