Where 19 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 1: I met? It's kind of it's not hot, it's not cold, 20 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:37,280 Speaker 1: it's kind of just nice. It's a warm. It's a 21 00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: warmer day than it should be this time of year, 22 00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 1: no rain till maybe in the evening. Where I met 23 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 1: my point being this, if you get a nice day 24 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 1: where it's tolerable to get out and get some of 25 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:55,960 Speaker 1: those chores done around the home. Besides just raking leaves 26 00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 1: or putting the landscaping to bed, one of the things 27 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 1: you might consider take a quick look at your concrete. 28 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 1: We took a lot of calls this summer and fall 29 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 1: regarding what they call spawling, where the surface of that 30 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 1: concrete becomes compromised. The gravel shows the concrete. It's not 31 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 1: smooth anymore. It's got divots in it. And I used 32 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 1: to call it driveway acne or cracks. And if you 33 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 1: live in cold weather climate and you have those issues, 34 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 1: and even if it's not been sealed for a while, 35 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:36,919 Speaker 1: been unsealed for three to five years, you haven't done 36 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:38,799 Speaker 1: anything with it. And you got some cracks, and you 37 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:41,919 Speaker 1: got some spawling, and you get a warm day, hey, 38 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 1: get to work. Winters are really really tough on concrete. 39 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 1: And you get a lot of moisture, you got road salt, 40 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:53,920 Speaker 1: and cold climates, you get rain. Some areas of the 41 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: country beautiful in the wintertime, but others harsh, and if 42 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,080 Speaker 1: you live in a harsh climate, we want to do 43 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 1: what's best for the hard scapes around our home. And 44 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:11,960 Speaker 1: it's not too late. It seems like falls get extended. Winners, 45 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 1: maybe a little warmer, but take advantage of a good day. 46 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 1: And today would be one of them where I'm at, 47 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 1: not so much tomorrow. But if you can do a 48 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 1: little patching, a little ceiling of the cracks, you might 49 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 1: be way ahead of the game. So something to think about, 50 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:36,640 Speaker 1: that's for sure. And you know, tackle those particular projects 51 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 1: and put them to bed. All right, very good, and 52 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: let's give you the phone number. We'll kick things off. 53 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 1: It's eight hundred eight two three eight two five five Scott. Welcome, Yes, Scott. 54 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 2: Oh, I'm so sorry. I apologize. I didn't hear you 55 00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 2: say my name. I'm sorry. Hey, I want to see them. 56 00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 2: So a little bit of a mystery. Twenty year old house. 57 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 2: Removed all the original folk trim and I'm replacing with 58 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 2: craftsman style trim. Uh huh. And when I did it, 59 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 2: you know at the bottom of the drywall how they 60 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 2: usually be installed, usually leave like about a quarter inch 61 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 2: to a half inch gap between the bottom. 62 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 1: Of the drywall and the floor in the floor, yes. 63 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 2: Right, the when I took the trim off below, in 64 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 2: that gap between the drywall and the floor. In lots 65 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 2: of places there, they've actually pounded roofing nails into the 66 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 2: base plate. And I'm wondering, is that to help prevent 67 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 2: the trim from like, you know, when you nail it 68 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:46,160 Speaker 2: tipping in? 69 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: Mm hmm, I'm gonna gas. I don't really know, is 70 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 1: there when you have that trim in there, can you 71 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 1: feel a lot of breeze or anything? 72 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:01,520 Speaker 2: No? No, that's an even internal you know, internal walls 73 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:04,159 Speaker 2: and everything. I mean, I removed it all the trim 74 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:09,039 Speaker 2: and it's they did this everywhere, and I almost thought 75 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:14,279 Speaker 2: they did it on the backing, you know, so you know, 76 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 2: when you use a nailer, it can you know, do 77 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 2: a lot of force. Maybe when they install it, you know, 78 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 2: and like did the nail into the base plate right 79 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 2: that that maybe it would have tipped it in. And 80 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:31,160 Speaker 2: so by putting that roofing nail there, it created a 81 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 2: almost like a backer. 82 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, Well from a convenience standpoint, that would make 83 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 1: it easier to do, would it not. 84 00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's kind of a mystery. 85 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 1: And yeah, I mean I've seen it people with with shims, 86 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 1: and I guess nails could do that same type of thing, 87 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,600 Speaker 1: just to hold that place and have that spacing. 88 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:57,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, so I'm guessing. 89 00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 1: I'm guessing with you. Yeah, I can't say I've used nails. 90 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: I've used certainly spacers and stuff like that, but I 91 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 1: guess it will do the same thing I did. 92 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 2: Because it's i mean, it's rooting. 93 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 1: Nails that they use with the bigger head. 94 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, the big head. 95 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, Yeah. 96 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 2: I I googled it all over the place and I 97 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,359 Speaker 2: could not find any reference to this. 98 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 1: Well that's why, I mean I think sometimes, uh, some 99 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,719 Speaker 1: of the things that will do or something that's been 100 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 1: passed down and not really you know, totally common, but 101 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 1: obviously you want to have a little high thought that 102 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:45,280 Speaker 1: uh subfloor, especially with you know, carpets and stuff like that, 103 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 1: to put that little spacer and there will be at 104 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 1: a nail or whatever. But yeah, I'm guessing that's what 105 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:51,600 Speaker 1: it would be. Scott. 106 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, and okay, yeah, I'm the original owner. 107 00:06:55,320 --> 00:07:01,479 Speaker 1: So I mean, all right, you know, keep listening. Somebody 108 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 1: may have another opinion. Tell me you're crazy, Gary, they 109 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:05,680 Speaker 1: all do that. I don't know, I've not done it. 110 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 1: Appreciate it all right, Linda welcome. 111 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 3: Hey, Yeah, got a question for you. We tried something 112 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 3: that we haven't done before, and I'm not confident that 113 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 3: we have all the water out. So we've typically paid 114 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 3: somebody to blow out the water out of our irrigation system. 115 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 3: Uh huh, and the cost has kept getting up and 116 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 3: up and up. So this year we tried it in 117 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 3: our own We shut off the water downstairs, okay, and outside, 118 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 3: and we had some water flow out from the drain. 119 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 3: But how do I know that the water. 120 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 4: Is actually out well? 121 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 3: And is there anything else I should have done? 122 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: So when you when you shut off the water inside 123 00:07:56,520 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 1: the home, you're you've got a little little brass cap 124 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 1: on that valve where you would drain out maybe a 125 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 1: few ounces of water there. And then usually what they'll do, 126 00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 1: what an irrigation system does, is they'll have a compressor. 127 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:18,679 Speaker 1: They'll blow the air out of the piping and out 128 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 1: of the heads, so they'll they'll they'll make sure all 129 00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 1: the water's out. They'll force it won't be water pressure, 130 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 1: it'll be air pressure that they'll blow out through that system, right, yeah, 131 00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 1: so have you done that. 132 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:35,959 Speaker 3: We don't have that equipment. 133 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 1: That's well, that's okay, Well that's kind of why you're 134 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 1: paying somebody to do that. That water should be blown out. 135 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 1: So it's fine to shut off the water. It's fine 136 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 1: to you know, do the little bleeder, the little bleeder 137 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: valve and get the water out of the valve and 138 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 1: the backflow preventter and things like that. But that's not 139 00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:00,680 Speaker 1: really since there is no water pressure now, since we've 140 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,680 Speaker 1: shut that off, that water is sitting in that pipe, 141 00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 1: so you need to force ofly, instead of having the 142 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,840 Speaker 1: water pressure, you would have the air pressure that would 143 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 1: then clean out that pipe. And yeah, that's why you know, 144 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:18,080 Speaker 1: you can rent compressors, but that's why you're paying that 145 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 1: money to have that irrigation system shut down, is to 146 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,200 Speaker 1: blow that water out of that pipe. All right, I 147 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: hope that helps, Linda. Thank you very much.

One of the things I'm gonna interject 189 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: here before we bring Ron Wilson and is on that 190 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 1: irrigation system on winter rising it there's a lot to 191 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 1: know on that, but you've got to get a compressor 192 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 1: air to blow all that out, and you blow that 193 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 1: water out, so it's just a miss. But the pressure 194 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 1: settings are even different. I mean, you're paying for somebody's 195 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 1: knowledge in the equipment. If it's a PBC system, it's 196 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 1: like fifty psi, polysystems like forty. And then there's drip zones, 197 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 1: which Ron can talk about that's twenty psi. So you 198 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 1: in knowing where to insert the compressor, which is near 199 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 1: the backflow and all that leaving the valves half open. 200 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 1: There's a little bit to know about that. You can 201 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:05,560 Speaker 1: certainly google that and get the step by step process, 202 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 1: but you got to have the equipment too. All right, 203 00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 1: mister Wilson is joining us. He always helps us with 204 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 1: the outside of our home, the bushes, the trees, the lawn, 205 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 1: the garden, all kinds of things. And it looks like 206 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 1: things are starting to kind of shut down. Mister Wilson, Yes. 207 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:26,440 Speaker 6: Sir, and I wouldn't tackle blown out my own irrigation system. 208 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,880 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I get it. I'm all about saving money. 209 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 1: I mean, I get it to two box but if 210 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: you don't know what you're doing, blow those heads off. 211 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 1: If you don't, you know, blow that water out of there, 212 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 1: the freezing and the cracking. I mean, you're protecting a 213 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:49,520 Speaker 1: sizable investment by having that maintained professionally. If you want 214 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,120 Speaker 1: to do it yourself, you've gotta have to learn about 215 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 1: how to do it, and there is certainly some risk 216 00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:58,480 Speaker 1: if you don't know how to use a compressor or word. 217 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,960 Speaker 1: I mean, there's like everything else, there's a you got 218 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:04,720 Speaker 1: to know what you're doing before you tackle it yourself. 219 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:06,200 Speaker 1: So you got some research to do. 220 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think it's yeah, I agree, Yeah, forget, I 221 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:13,679 Speaker 6: mean it's I would learn about that kind of stuff. 222 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 6: I learned about it, so I know how to do 223 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 6: it if I had to otherwise. 224 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:23,160 Speaker 1: Can you learn about it? And you say, hmm, that's 225 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:23,800 Speaker 1: not for me. 226 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:25,520 Speaker 6: That's just not That's what I say. Can you come 227 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 6: and blow out my I. 228 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 1: I don't really want to blow all the heads off 229 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 1: my irrigation system. I don't want to screw up the 230 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 1: irrigation controller. I don't want to mess up the valves. 231 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 1: I don't want the copper pipe on the back flow 232 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:38,640 Speaker 1: to freeze and split. 233 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 6: I mean, you know, do people still pour ana freeze 234 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 6: in your toilets. 235 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 1: Well when they take off to go somewhere. Yeah, a 236 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 1: lot of times they do. And it's not necessarily I mean, 237 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 1: I wouldn't do the ana freeze, but there's like the 238 00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:53,280 Speaker 1: US to do that. 239 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 6: Yeah, I said, that's sarcastically. 240 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:57,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, no they did. Sure, you know what the best 241 00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 1: thing to do really, And it's not that they do 242 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 1: it to keep the water from freezing. They do it 243 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 1: to keep it from evaporating. 244 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 6: Poor oil or something then mineral oil, mineral oil. 245 00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 1: All it takes is geez, I don't know, four ounces, 246 00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:15,080 Speaker 1: take a little splash or two of it, put it 247 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 1: in a toilet. Some people would wrap saran wrap on 248 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 1: top of it because if that toilet water evaporates when 249 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 1: you're out of town and it evaporates out of that trap, 250 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 1: it's a direct line to the sewer, which allows sewer 251 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 1: gas in your home. And if you're gonna be a 252 00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 1: snowbird and be gone three months and your house is 253 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 1: real dry, that's a that's certainly a risk. So yeah, 254 00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 1: winterizing your home's a that's a whole subject. That's a good, 255 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 1: good subject too, you know, winterizing your home. A lot 256 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 1: of people there too, don't really know where the rules 257 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 1: should be. And all of a sudden somebody goes, I'm 258 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:53,480 Speaker 1: gonna save me a lot of money. I'm gonna put 259 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 1: that house at forty five degrees too cold you want 260 00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:00,160 Speaker 1: to keep it. I wouldn't really go below fifty eight, 261 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 1: to be honest with you. 262 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 6: See, I always say I think he used some reason. 263 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 6: During the week. We went out of town last Saturday Sunday, 264 00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 6: and I went downstairs, and I first I turned off 265 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,560 Speaker 6: the water, because if I'm gonna be gone more than 266 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 6: three or four days, I turn off the water. 267 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 1: Not a bad idea. 268 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 6: I turn off the heat, the water heater, so you know, 269 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 6: because the water's turned off obviously, right. I do open once. 270 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 6: I don't know why, but I always open one spicott 271 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:27,840 Speaker 6: just to drain the water over the pipes. 272 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 1: Sure, and basically you can drain too too. Really, you 273 00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 1: do the highest faucet, you know, maybe upstairs, and then 274 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 1: the lowest. Do the lowest one and downstairs and yeah, 275 00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 1: and then you got some air. Just drains faster. Yeah, 276 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 1: that's the main reason. 277 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 6: Yep. And then they then the thermostat at about sixty. Yeah, 278 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:46,800 Speaker 6: that's plenty fifty eight something like that. 279 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 1: That's a really good spot. That's the sweets. 280 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:51,160 Speaker 6: And the only reason I do that is because I 281 00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 6: learned that from Gary Carleman. 282 00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 1: Is that right? 283 00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 6: Yes? 284 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 1: I try to teach you everything you know. 285 00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 6: Well in home improvement anyway. 286 00:16:58,400 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, when are you gonna get over here? Right? 287 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 6: Old lot? Easy? I was at my uncles this week 288 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:05,280 Speaker 6: in North Carolina and they're they're at the same situation 289 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:08,200 Speaker 6: that we're in as far as leaf color and leaf droppage, 290 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 6: and they were just raining leaf. Oh my gosh, I 291 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:14,640 Speaker 6: mean this is the latest, he said, ever. And he's 292 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 6: got ten acres and it's wooded, and they were everywhere. 293 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:22,359 Speaker 6: And he just looked at that and said, I'm calling 294 00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 6: somebody I'm not tackling. 295 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:25,160 Speaker 1: Is this well, you're gonna go out and break ten 296 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 1: acres of woods? 297 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:26,679 Speaker 7: No? 298 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:29,520 Speaker 6: He usually blows out around the house, you know, and 299 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 6: around the yard there close by, and the drive that 300 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:34,960 Speaker 6: looks along driveway. Yeah, so he blows those all off 301 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:36,439 Speaker 6: and then try to get it away as much as 302 00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 6: he can't back into the woods. 303 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:38,280 Speaker 1: Yeah. 304 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,119 Speaker 6: But uh man, he had a ton of them. 305 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 1: You know, there's people that are very fickle with leaves. 306 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:45,240 Speaker 1: You know, they're like, I got to get rid of them, right, 307 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:46,680 Speaker 1: I gotta get rid of them every day, I gotta 308 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 1: get rid of them. Yeah, okay, So here's the thing. 309 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:57,199 Speaker 1: If you do it and your neighbor doesn't, and you 310 00:17:57,240 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 1: stay on top of it, you're never going to get 311 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,440 Speaker 1: them all off right, because it's windy and it's gonna 312 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:06,399 Speaker 1: blow around. So if you go into winter, say the 313 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:09,760 Speaker 1: first of December, and you know, you get a windy day, 314 00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 1: and you know, it's not like there's you know, two 315 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:16,399 Speaker 1: inches of leaves all over your ground, but there's leaves scatter. 316 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:18,239 Speaker 1: That doesn't hurt anything, does it. 317 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:18,439 Speaker 3: No. 318 00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:20,880 Speaker 6: If they're just scattered here and there and there goes, 319 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 6: those are going to continue to blow. Right they're frozen 320 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 6: there or they could be and depending on the weather, 321 00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 6: but they're going to continue to blow as well. So, no, 322 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 6: there is a point where you've done everything you can 323 00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:33,160 Speaker 6: to collect up your leaves and that's you know, that's 324 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:33,640 Speaker 6: what you do. 325 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:34,640 Speaker 1: Yeah. 326 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 6: I'm sure there's exceptions to the rule occasionally, but yeah, 327 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 6: oh you just let the mother nature take care from 328 00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:41,840 Speaker 6: that point on. But again, we've got this big push 329 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,239 Speaker 6: to leave the leaves, and I get it, you know, 330 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:46,320 Speaker 6: as far as the wildlife and overwinnering of a lot 331 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 6: of critters out there. But you can leave the leaves everywhere, 332 00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 6: but don't leave the leaves on the lawn.

Couple things with plumbing, because plumbing is 403 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 1: always affected in the wintertime, and that is a little 404 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 1: exercise you may want to do is just close reopen, 405 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,399 Speaker 1: and we were talking about shutting the water off of 406 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:22,360 Speaker 1: the house. Definitely do that once a year, whether you're 407 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:26,879 Speaker 1: going on a trip or not. Because then taking a 408 00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:30,879 Speaker 1: step further too, if you have valves underneath the kitchen sink, 409 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:34,680 Speaker 1: bathroom sink, toilets usually have a valve right behind there, 410 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 1: make sure those valves will turn off and turn on. 411 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:42,640 Speaker 1: They're easily turn off and on because if you have 412 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:48,120 Speaker 1: an emergency with a leak, pray tell, that's no time 413 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:51,879 Speaker 1: to find out that the valve stuck. So if you 414 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:54,879 Speaker 1: have it where it's a little difficult to open and 415 00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:58,640 Speaker 1: close again, we have those products like PB blaster where 416 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 1: it's a penetrant, Spraying that on there and just making 417 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:05,439 Speaker 1: sure that can be easily you know, turned off and 418 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 1: on will be a good maintenance TEP. Also, if you 419 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:13,200 Speaker 1: notice a maybe not so much a decrease in pressure, 420 00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:17,679 Speaker 1: maybe a decrease in volume of water out of the 421 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 1: shower heads, out of the faucets themselves, a lot of 422 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:28,640 Speaker 1: times that's just due to calcium carbonate hard waters plugging 423 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 1: them up. Replacing that shower head certainly an option. Taking 424 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 1: that shower head off and soaking it in vinegar or 425 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:42,199 Speaker 1: CLR is a good option. I think last week we 426 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 1: talked about the aer raiders. That's a little cap at 427 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:47,960 Speaker 1: the end of the faucet. If it's just not bringing 428 00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 1: enough or as much water through that faucet as it 429 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:56,280 Speaker 1: once did, take a look at that and you might 430 00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 1: be amazed. I just did this at one of the faucets, 431 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:02,359 Speaker 1: took it off and it looked like somebody had taken 432 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 1: a salt shaker in sprinkled salt in there, and it's 433 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:10,959 Speaker 1: just calcium carbonate. Is just hard water collections inside the 434 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 1: air raider and flushing nose out and replacing the screen. 435 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:19,399 Speaker 1: Good maintenance, easy to do. Even though it's plumbing. You 436 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 1: probably won't get too much trouble. All right again, it's 437 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:26,760 Speaker 1: eight hundred eighty two three eight two five five Anita, Welcome. 438 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:32,800 Speaker 9: Yes, I was calling to ask the question on a 439 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:36,040 Speaker 9: house that was probably built in the nineteen fifties or 440 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 9: sixty to replace carpet in my basement. I pulled up 441 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:42,560 Speaker 9: a small corner of it and it looks like there 442 00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 9: is linoleum underneath it. Now, my question is, how do 443 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:51,840 Speaker 9: we know if it's at festus was put down or 444 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 9: the glue. I guess the glue is thetis How do 445 00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:56,640 Speaker 9: we find out? 446 00:25:56,960 --> 00:26:00,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm going to guess it probably is. But what 447 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,320 Speaker 1: you can do is you can go to the hardware 448 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 1: store and different places will have little test kits, and 449 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 1: all of them aren't great, but this particular one would 450 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:13,919 Speaker 1: be good. They got it for mold rate on everything, 451 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 1: they got it for asbestos, and they even have for 452 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 1: lead based paints. But you can just take a sample 453 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:22,879 Speaker 1: of that, put it in and it basically sends it 454 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,640 Speaker 1: to a laboratory and they tell you what the contents are. 455 00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 1: If you've got nine inch tiles, I can almost guarantee 456 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:34,879 Speaker 1: you so it's a sheet good. 457 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:38,920 Speaker 9: Yeah, I'm pretty sure linoleum because I pulled up about 458 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:43,679 Speaker 9: six seven inches of it. No, and it looks like 459 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 9: the linoleum from the seventies. 460 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:49,679 Speaker 1: Say yeah, yeah, Well, the asbestos even though some of 461 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 1: it still sneaks in, but usually started getting pretty tight 462 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:57,879 Speaker 1: regulations on it mid seventies, mid to late seventies. So 463 00:26:57,920 --> 00:26:59,960 Speaker 1: that's how you find out. Was the glue black? 464 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 9: Yeah, I couldn't see. I couldn't see any glue the tackboard. 465 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 9: My husband was worried about taking the tackboard up if 466 00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:12,080 Speaker 9: there was asbestos. 467 00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:17,359 Speaker 1: H So, asbestos, you know, is dangerous when it becomes 468 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 1: airborne and going through your whole heating and cooling system. 469 00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:22,119 Speaker 1: You know, I mean, if there's a lot of dust, 470 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:26,359 Speaker 1: that's where asbestos comes into play. What what are you 471 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:28,280 Speaker 1: going to put down for a floor? 472 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:36,320 Speaker 9: Well, they were going to, excuse me, put a carpet 473 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:39,960 Speaker 9: over it. Take the tackboard up and put carpet or 474 00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:40,880 Speaker 9: big rug. 475 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 1: Were you going to have the So are you you're 476 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:48,400 Speaker 1: not going to put wall to wall carpet down there? Again? 477 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 1: Correct at this. 478 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:54,320 Speaker 9: Point, probably no, But they wanted to take the carpet 479 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:55,919 Speaker 9: up because it smells. 480 00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:59,959 Speaker 1: Okay, So are you going to leave the linoya? Man? 481 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:01,679 Speaker 1: Is your floor? 482 00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:01,920 Speaker 9: Then? 483 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:02,800 Speaker 1: Is that the plan? 484 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 3: Yeah? 485 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:07,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, okay, all right. Well I was going to 486 00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:09,879 Speaker 1: say a lot of new building materials and stuff like 487 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:13,280 Speaker 1: that can cover up over linoium that has asbestos in 488 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:18,800 Speaker 1: it and encapsulate it. If you're going to lead that 489 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:23,159 Speaker 1: as a regular flooring and take up stripping and everything, 490 00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 1: I probably would get it tested and probably try to 491 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 1: put something over that, whether it's a engineer wood floor, 492 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 1: whether it's a laminate that's waterproof, or even carpet. If 493 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:40,560 Speaker 1: it smells bad. We probably had some water issues down 494 00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 1: there which is causing a smell. 495 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 9: Yeah, that's what I told them, But you know, coming 496 00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:48,480 Speaker 9: from parents, they don't want to listen. 497 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 1: Well, nobody wants to listen even if they see water 498 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:55,480 Speaker 1: in a basement, because that can be a little bigger 499 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:59,120 Speaker 1: project than what we want to tackle. So to answer 500 00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:02,480 Speaker 1: your question, to get it tested to see what it is. 501 00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:05,520 Speaker 1: That you can get an asbestos test kit at a 502 00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:07,760 Speaker 1: hardware store and just mail a little sample way and 503 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 1: they'll tell you what it is. 504 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:13,440 Speaker 9: Okay. And one other question was is there any type 505 00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:17,040 Speaker 9: of molding for the floor that will go over to 506 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 9: the tackboard if you don't want to disturb the tex board. 507 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 1: Well, I think you're going to have to get that 508 00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 1: often matter. I mean, if you're gonna put carpet down again, 509 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:30,200 Speaker 1: obviously you could reuse the tax strips unless they're rotted. 510 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:35,440 Speaker 1: But other than that, you you would have to, Uh, 511 00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 1: you'd have to remove it. And I don't think it's 512 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:41,719 Speaker 1: going to be you know. I mean, you know, if 513 00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 1: you had somebody come in and remove it, they're going 514 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 1: to have to probably wear a hazmat suit and everything else. 515 00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 1: In different states, uh, and your you can do that 516 00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:58,080 Speaker 1: yourself and dispose of it yourself. And I believe in 517 00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:01,320 Speaker 1: your state that's exactly what you can do. So, you know, 518 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:06,320 Speaker 1: a respirator goggles for tax strips, not talking about removing 519 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:09,480 Speaker 1: the entire linnoleum, just the tax strips. I think you'll 520 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:10,080 Speaker 1: be fine. 521 00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 9: That's kind of what I thought too. But my husband's 522 00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:15,520 Speaker 9: very worried about it. 523 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:21,760 Speaker 1: Yep, Okay, all right, very good. Thanks, You're quite welcome. 524 00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 1: Thank you. And I'm not trying to downplay that. Like 525 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:29,520 Speaker 1: if you had to remove that and that was asbestos. Again, 526 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 1: in some states you have you have the ability to 527 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:34,800 Speaker 1: do that yourself and dispose of it yourself. In other 528 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:37,480 Speaker 1: states you cannot do that. So you're gonna have to 529 00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:40,480 Speaker 1: check with your state laws and you're gonna have to 530 00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 1: be you know, you're gonna have to tape precautions. But 531 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 1: if it's just you know, a tax strip or something 532 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 1: like that, I'd feel pretty confident. That's a whole different ballgame. 533 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 1: And you know, if you're removing that whole floor, you're 534 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 1: seeing on offense and everything else. So big difference in 535 00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 1: what you're tackling. So know what you can and can't do. 536 00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 1: If you talk to some flooring people, there's some wonderful 537 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:09,080 Speaker 1: flooring that can go and literally, uh, you know, if 538 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 1: you saw your house, you got to disclose there's asbestos. 539 00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 1: There's asbestos flooring. But you know, if you have that encapsulated, 540 00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:23,400 Speaker 1: meaning sealed up, it's a different ballgame because it's the 541 00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:28,800 Speaker 1: fibers that become airborne that become the health risk. And 542 00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 1: of course the accumulation or the more fibers, the bigger 543 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 1: the risk. Obviously, you start taking up linoium off an 544 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:39,960 Speaker 1: old concrete floor in a decent sized basement and you 545 00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:43,480 Speaker 1: got the heating and cooling and the air handler down there. Yeah, 546 00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:46,720 Speaker 1: that's a that's a big project. That might be something 547 00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:51,000 Speaker 1: you might want to consider having professionally done.

Can you hear me? 610 00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:03,320 Speaker 1: Got you? 611 00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:07,640 Speaker 7: I'm sorry, okay. I am in a quarter unit of 612 00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:11,640 Speaker 7: five condos. All of the water comes into my condo 613 00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:14,040 Speaker 7: for all five condos, so we have high water pressure 614 00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:18,520 Speaker 7: and the bathroom sauce. I had to have totally repair 615 00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 7: the inner parts like six years ago, and I just 616 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:25,760 Speaker 7: hadn't replaced in about a week ago because he said 617 00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:27,919 Speaker 7: it's going to cost as much as a new bless. 618 00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:31,759 Speaker 7: My problem is we could not shut off the hot 619 00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:37,400 Speaker 7: water under the bathroom cabinet because the vows coroded, and 620 00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:39,880 Speaker 7: we went downstairs to shut off the water to the condo. 621 00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:42,960 Speaker 7: Itself because the shut off of all five condos is 622 00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:46,000 Speaker 7: on one wall and over by the laundry area there's 623 00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:48,760 Speaker 7: a shut off for all of the water that's coroded. 624 00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:51,240 Speaker 7: So I'm not going to touch it. But you mentioned 625 00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:53,399 Speaker 7: the product. Is there something that you put on there 626 00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:55,120 Speaker 7: or do I need to have the vows replaced? 627 00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:59,000 Speaker 1: Well, you you can try to put that on there. 628 00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:01,719 Speaker 1: It will loose in it. It is a it's a 629 00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:09,560 Speaker 1: tremendous it's called p B Blaster and it is a penetrant. 630 00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:14,680 Speaker 1: It is a spray, so you would do it around 631 00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:18,400 Speaker 1: It depends what kind of valve you have too, quite honestly, 632 00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:22,480 Speaker 1: but I would certainly use it. And PB blaster is 633 00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:28,200 Speaker 1: very good penetrating product that you really should have around 634 00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:31,600 Speaker 1: the house anyway. And you spray it on around the 635 00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:36,880 Speaker 1: handles and it literally works its way down into that valve, 636 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:41,240 Speaker 1: eliminates the corrosion. Let it sit for a couple hours 637 00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:44,960 Speaker 1: and then try it. I'm not going to guarantee it, 638 00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:47,760 Speaker 1: but I've seen it do some phenomenal things. It's great 639 00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:52,080 Speaker 1: for Yeah, it's great for nuts and bolts and things. 640 00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:55,279 Speaker 1: But you know the old gate valve with around handles, 641 00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:59,200 Speaker 1: those things do jam up. Now, they got kind of 642 00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:03,440 Speaker 1: the ball valve, it's a stainless steel valve or ball 643 00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:09,480 Speaker 1: inside the valve. Those get corroded a lot less. But yeah, 644 00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:12,279 Speaker 1: p B blaster, I would spray it down with that. 645 00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:14,520 Speaker 7: It's both had to be replaced. 646 00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:17,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, And that's why I was given that tip too, 647 00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:21,480 Speaker 1: is it's it's much better to discover that now than 648 00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:23,080 Speaker 1: if you had a leak and a pipe and all 649 00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:25,520 Speaker 1: of a sudden you can't shut off your main line. 650 00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:30,440 Speaker 1: That's a big that's a big problem. So what kind 651 00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:33,200 Speaker 1: of water pressure do you have going into your condo? 652 00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:37,600 Speaker 7: I don't really know how much it is, but I 653 00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:39,480 Speaker 7: know that when I put on the spray or in 654 00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:42,160 Speaker 7: the kitchen sink, you have to have the water on 655 00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:44,200 Speaker 7: and make sure you don't have it on full blaster. 656 00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:46,400 Speaker 7: You're going to get sprayed. Yeah, it splashes. 657 00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:49,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's interesting. So so I've. 658 00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:52,319 Speaker 7: Really never tested the water pressure. I never thought of Ye, 659 00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:57,280 Speaker 7: I just know because all five condos get water from condo, 660 00:38:57,960 --> 00:38:59,919 Speaker 7: it comes through there. It's a high pressure here. 661 00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:03,719 Speaker 1: Well, if you have to get the valves replaced, have 662 00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:06,440 Speaker 1: your plumber just do a water pressure test and just 663 00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:10,960 Speaker 1: see where you're at, because there are pressure reducing valves 664 00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:14,600 Speaker 1: that may be necessary to add, which wouldn't be a 665 00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:16,760 Speaker 1: bad deal if you're over water software. 666 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:21,800 Speaker 7: Somebody said a water software also would be helpful. 667 00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:25,399 Speaker 1: Well, it may, but it would be a lot more 668 00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:28,600 Speaker 1: expensive than a pressure reducing valve. You want to have. 669 00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:31,480 Speaker 1: If it's copper pipe, you want to have your water pressure, 670 00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:33,400 Speaker 1: you know between fifty and eighty. 671 00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:40,040 Speaker 7: Okay, So all right, because that's a good thing to know. 672 00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:42,120 Speaker 1: Sure is very good. 673 00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:44,399 Speaker 7: Thank you much, Mary, Thank you so much. 674 00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:50,160 Speaker 1: Bye bye, and let's get Kate. Kate, welcome all. 675 00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:54,920 Speaker 4: Hi Jared. I have always advocated for wet and Forget, 676 00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:59,399 Speaker 4: and I have always used it outside on my cement. Well, 677 00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:01,760 Speaker 4: I was at Hardware Start a couple of weeks ago 678 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:06,160 Speaker 4: and I saw this ready to use, and so I 679 00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:10,680 Speaker 4: bought two containers of it. And this was the easy 680 00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:13,680 Speaker 4: way out for me. I'm ninety years old, and I 681 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:17,920 Speaker 4: do not have good luck with the concentrate having to 682 00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:22,800 Speaker 4: put them in those containers. I always threw it up somehow, Okay, 683 00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:27,319 Speaker 4: So I used the one model I bought two, and 684 00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:33,120 Speaker 4: I did probably three squares of the concrete. It's my patio, 685 00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:38,000 Speaker 4: and nothing happened. So after I knew I had to 686 00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:40,880 Speaker 4: take at least a month for it to be effective. 687 00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:46,520 Speaker 4: So I called this called the company to see if 688 00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:49,760 Speaker 4: they could tell me what I did why it wasn't working. 689 00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:54,200 Speaker 4: And the woman told me, first of all, it needs 690 00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:58,799 Speaker 4: to have We had a drought in Ohio up this 691 00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:03,080 Speaker 4: way anyhow, and she said to spray. Put the hose 692 00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:06,759 Speaker 4: on it and spray it. So I did that a 693 00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:10,239 Speaker 4: few times, and then I just left to go. And 694 00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:13,759 Speaker 4: now when I called her, tell her that there's no 695 00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:20,560 Speaker 4: recognize we're recognizable anything that I used on this concrete. 696 00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:25,200 Speaker 4: There's some mold on it and it's it's black. Well anyhow, 697 00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:29,880 Speaker 4: she said, this isn't good for it's for like windowsills 698 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:35,880 Speaker 4: and planters. It isn't really This particular ready to go 699 00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:42,080 Speaker 4: stuff is not for concrete. So I'm wondering if I 700 00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:45,920 Speaker 4: would take the one bottle as empty, and if I 701 00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:51,600 Speaker 4: would take some of the concentrate and put it in that. 702 00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:56,280 Speaker 1: You can't do that. There are two different formulations in products. 703 00:41:56,280 --> 00:41:59,800 Speaker 1: But I'll tell you this, I disagree with her. I 704 00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:02,360 Speaker 1: don't know who you spoke to, Kate, and unfortunately I 705 00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:07,280 Speaker 1: think that's I think that's bad information. Why it didn't work. 706 00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:09,880 Speaker 1: I don't know if I can give you that answer. 707 00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:12,719 Speaker 1: She's right. When you spray it on there, and I've 708 00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:16,480 Speaker 1: used it numerous times, when you spray it on any surface. 709 00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:22,120 Speaker 1: I'm talking brick, I'm talking roofing materials, I'm talking window sills, 710 00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:25,920 Speaker 1: I'm talking you know, sidewalks and driveways and everything. And 711 00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:28,520 Speaker 1: you just connect a host to it and you flood 712 00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:31,520 Speaker 1: the area. And you know, if there's a drought and 713 00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:33,839 Speaker 1: there's no rain, yeah, it's going to be it will 714 00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:37,320 Speaker 1: eventually clean it. It's going to be a little slower working, 715 00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:41,680 Speaker 1: but it should have you know, especially if you're going 716 00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:43,560 Speaker 1: out with a hose in adding water to it. That 717 00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:47,040 Speaker 1: was good advice. That should have propelled it. But it's 718 00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:55,719 Speaker 1: most definitely able to be used on concrete or on sidewalks. 719 00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:59,040 Speaker 1: But to use to concentrate and put it into the 720 00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:02,520 Speaker 1: hose en sprayer is not going to work. It's not 721 00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:06,840 Speaker 1: going to properly dilute. What I would do is wherever 722 00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:10,200 Speaker 1: you picked it up, I would if you still have 723 00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:13,600 Speaker 1: the other bottle, I would certainly go ahead and use that, 724 00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:18,000 Speaker 1: And even this time of year, it's great. In fact, 725 00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:20,759 Speaker 1: it's probably better to apply that this time of year 726 00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:24,000 Speaker 1: than it would be to apply it in the middle 727 00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:28,200 Speaker 1: of August because sidewalks you talk about a drought, not 728 00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:32,200 Speaker 1: only is it dry, those sidewalks, a driveway also hold 729 00:43:32,239 --> 00:43:34,800 Speaker 1: the heat and there's a lot of evaporation. So I 730 00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:37,239 Speaker 1: don't know if enough product got down on there or not, 731 00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:40,480 Speaker 1: but you could try to return that. A lot of 732 00:43:40,520 --> 00:43:44,400 Speaker 1: your retailers will take something back. But in talking about 733 00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:48,000 Speaker 1: that product for probably eight years, I don't know if 734 00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:51,080 Speaker 1: I had more than one or two people that weren't 735 00:43:51,120 --> 00:43:54,120 Speaker 1: satisfied in the quickness that it did. So try to 736 00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:56,560 Speaker 1: return to one, use the other one, and let's see 737 00:43:56,560 --> 00:44:00,000 Speaker 1: where we go. But that would be my advice to you. 738 00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:04,120 Speaker 1: All right, Hey, don't forget my favorite products.
