So let's get started. 11 00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:06,600 Speaker 1: Happy to take your calls regarding your home projects. As 12 00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:08,960 Speaker 1: I look at the weather map, and I do that 13 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 1: often because a lot of the issues we may have 14 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:16,280 Speaker 1: around our home on any given weekend, whether it's really hot, 15 00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 1: really cold, whether it's snowing or raining or flooding, is 16 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 1: attributed to the weather. So as I look at the 17 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,679 Speaker 1: weather map, it looks like half the country's gonna is 18 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 1: under snow cover or going to be under snow cover. 19 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 1: And maybe it's cold outside where I met, we're gonna 20 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 1: get near zero in the next day or two, and 21 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,039 Speaker 1: some people further north are going to get colder than that. 22 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:41,840 Speaker 1: So obviously one of the things we want to talk 23 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 1: about is protecting any exposed pipes. And you know, if 24 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 1: you're if you're going to do anything today, that might 25 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 1: be something you just want to kind of focus in on. 26 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:59,280 Speaker 1: Where has there been problems in the past. Are those 27 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 1: pipes still protected? If it's getting below zero in your 28 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 1: neck of the woods and there's no insulation on that pipe. 29 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 1: Keeping those cabinet doors open, just a trickle of water, 30 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 1: both cold and hot running, let the ambient temperature inside 31 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,520 Speaker 1: the room get back in that cabinet area. That'll all 32 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 1: be helpful. Also, one of the things is we preaching 33 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 1: and I keep still hearing all the stories about energy bills. 34 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 1: It's like every time I get my energy bill, I'd like, 35 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 1: hold my breath. You know, how did we do this month? 36 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 1: And I'm sure you're the same way. I mean, it's 37 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 1: continuing to rise in the forecast. That graph is going northward. Okay, 38 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 1: so when it gets really cold, like it's supposed to 39 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,360 Speaker 1: where I met for the next few weeks or a 40 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 1: few days actually was to warm up at the end 41 00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: of the week. But you know, we'll have more and 42 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:01,399 Speaker 1: more cold weather, that's for sure. Pay attention to where 43 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 1: you're getting the drafts, and pay attention to solving those problems. 44 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:11,919 Speaker 1: If you're sitting on the couch and there's a register 45 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,920 Speaker 1: under the couch or right up against the windows, and 46 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: the blinds and shades are up or drapes are blocking 47 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: that heated air, make sure that heated air can get 48 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,839 Speaker 1: into the room. There's a little deflectors you can put 49 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:33,359 Speaker 1: over registers to shoot that air from underneath the couch 50 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 1: out into the room. I mean, you're paying for that 51 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: heated air, let's use it. You don't want to go 52 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: on up behind the drapes and against the windows. That's 53 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: not very functional for you, right. Or if you get 54 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 1: down in the basement or the cross space and you 55 00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 1: start examining the pipes and the pipes are well, they're 56 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 1: not very well connected and there's gaps, and you're losing 57 00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 1: that heated air that you're paying for. Aluminum table take 58 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 1: those up. So pay attention to what's going on your home. 59 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 1: If you're getting that same kind of weather, I think 60 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 1: you'll get ahead of the ball game a little bit, 61 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 1: and of course we'll be happy to talk about it. Also, 62 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 1: So let me give you the phone number. It is 63 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 1: eight hundred eighty two three eight two five five and 64 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:20,719 Speaker 1: Paul you lead us off.

There's when you use construction adhesive. 104 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 1: A lot of construction adhesives will not cannot be used 105 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 1: on star foam or foam. It'll meld it and then 106 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 1: then I know, like gorilla glue, they're constructionhesive. They make 107 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 1: three different good better best. There's one of those that 108 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 1: are universal.

Here is this supposed to be here? But yeah, 212 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:37,680 Speaker 4: indoor gardening, I mean, you know, sure, holiday plants all yeah. 213 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,960 Speaker 1: So somebody asked me this question, and this is a 214 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 1: good question too. 215 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,320 Speaker 4: I'm sure you had an answer. Well, you've been doing 216 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:46,079 Speaker 4: this for a long time. 217 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:48,600 Speaker 1: I kind of got an answer for it. Sure, I 218 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:53,839 Speaker 1: understand what the problem is. Led. Christmas lights outside are 219 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:58,840 Speaker 1: very energy efficient. They don't get hot like the incandescent 220 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:00,199 Speaker 1: Christmas bulbs. 221 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 4: Correct, And I learned that from my friend Gary Sullivan. 222 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,880 Speaker 1: And when it snows, it covers up all my ball. 223 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:08,400 Speaker 4: It doesn't melt the ground, it. 224 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 1: Doesn't melt the snow. And then I got all this 225 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 1: snow on my bushes and over my bulb. Should I 226 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 1: sweep that off? Oh there's a little twist in that. 227 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 1: People used to ask you that question all the time. 228 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 1: Maybe the Christmas lights weren't an issue, But snow on 229 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,240 Speaker 1: bushes that's kind of natural, isn't it. 230 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 4: Yeah? On evergreens sometimes you know, it can start to 231 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,040 Speaker 4: weight them down if it looks like it's gonna pull 232 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:38,480 Speaker 4: them apart, like some arbor vity or multi stemmed, multi 233 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 4: leadered in the middle, and it can actually pull them apart. 234 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:43,040 Speaker 4: And a lot of times if I stay apart more 235 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 4: than a couple of weeks, they don't come back together. 236 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 4: So in areas where you think you're gonna have some 237 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 4: heavy snowfall, well we recommend is take a pair. Believe 238 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 4: it or not. Pantyhose is one of the best tie 239 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 4: up materials that you can use and go up about 240 00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 4: a little bit more than halfway and tie all three 241 00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 4: of the those leaders together. Okay, just secure, it'll pull 242 00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:06,320 Speaker 4: them up and they can hang on to each other 243 00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 4: and they won't split off. But I have like a 244 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,040 Speaker 4: hemlock and a few other evergreens in my patio area. 245 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 4: Then if it starts to weight them down, it looks 246 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:15,680 Speaker 4: like it's going to break a branch. I'll take a broom, 247 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 4: all right, like a straw room or whatever, and I 248 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:23,360 Speaker 4: will brush upward, not down, but I'll brush upward and 249 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:26,200 Speaker 4: kind of vibrate the broom and shake it off and 250 00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 4: dislodge it and make it fall down. So I will 251 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 4: do that to prevent it from breaking. But otherwise, you know, 252 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 4: otherwise you just you know, you kind of let it 253 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 4: ride hydranges and still have flowers on them. Sometimes it'll 254 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 4: get ice and snow on there. They'll start to weight 255 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 4: down and also looks like it's going to break that branch. 256 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 4: I'll go ahead and deadhead those, get those off of there. 257 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 4: But then when you get the lights on air, that's 258 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 4: a different store, because then how do you shake it 259 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:51,400 Speaker 4: and keep the lights on it. 260 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 1: Well, I'll tell you, before he asked that question, I 261 00:15:55,200 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 1: didn't have I did. I wasn't concerned really about the books. 262 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,880 Speaker 1: Shit looked fine, And you know, I've never seen by 263 00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 1: walking through the woods with the broom to clean all 264 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 1: the trees and bushes. Yeah, but I did, you know, 265 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 1: I did want to kind of expose some of the lights. 266 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 1: And I wasn't going to get up there with a 267 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 1: rake or something try and go over the top of 268 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,680 Speaker 1: the bush and get tangled with a cord. So I 269 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:18,640 Speaker 1: took a broom and got to the bottom of the 270 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:22,440 Speaker 1: bush and just hit the branches vibrate at the bottom, right, 271 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,080 Speaker 1: and it knocked some off, and that was good enough 272 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 1: for me. I didn't want to you know. 273 00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:29,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, you just loes enough weight to keep it from 274 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 4: breaking them. That's all you want to do, right, And 275 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 4: you're right if you can get to the bottom of 276 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 4: that and just vibrate it a little bit or knock 277 00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 4: it like you did with it something soft, right, Yeah, 278 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 4: you know what a sponge hose you were were your 279 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:44,680 Speaker 4: mop Oh a sponge that's good because it doesn't hurt 280 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 4: the trunk, and put that in there and kind of 281 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:46,920 Speaker 4: vibrate a little bit. 282 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 1: Well. And then the other interesting thing, it really depends 283 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:51,920 Speaker 1: on what kind of snow we had, because that snow 284 00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 1: we had a few days ago was kind of a slushy, heavy, 285 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 1: wet snow. The snow we're gonna get today. I don't know, 286 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,080 Speaker 1: the light blowing snows be a little dryer, yeah, not 287 00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:04,680 Speaker 1: an issue, all right, it's the wet snows and a 288 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 1: little bit of ice in there. That that that's where 289 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:08,480 Speaker 1: we started to get into trouble. Right, And of course 290 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:12,200 Speaker 1: pairs ornamental pairs, which we don't plan anymore. They're invasive, 291 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 1: but they still have leaves on them late in the season. Yeah, 292 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:16,000 Speaker 1: and a lot of and and you know, so a 293 00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 1: lot of times they'll collect that up and that's one 294 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 1: of the reasons why they split, right, you know, other 295 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:22,120 Speaker 1: than the high winds. But they'll split from that. Well, 296 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:25,360 Speaker 1: in another week, we may have ice dam issues. That's 297 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:29,639 Speaker 1: another thing. You know. I hope everybody paid attention. Sometimes 298 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:32,680 Speaker 1: I feel like I preach, I preach nearby goes shut up. 299 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 1: I'm talking about don't let leaves clog up your gutters. 300 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:40,640 Speaker 1: And you know, we man, we went from mid fall 301 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:44,960 Speaker 1: to winter this year. Sometimes sometimes we don't need to 302 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,200 Speaker 1: have a winter, but man, we went from mid fall 303 00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:48,639 Speaker 1: leaves fall into snow. 304 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 4: You know, my mom has a I don't know which 305 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,399 Speaker 4: one she has. Well, she has some kind of gutter 306 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:56,439 Speaker 4: guard keep the leaves up and the guys are collecting 307 00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:58,160 Speaker 4: and the leaves in her house a couple of weeks ago, 308 00:17:58,160 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 4: and they she said, can you go up there and 309 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 4: just kind of blow those you know, gets stuffed out. 310 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:03,679 Speaker 4: It was amazing what they still got out of there, really, 311 00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 4: because I mean sometimes that stuff kind of sifts down 312 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:06,680 Speaker 4: through and you know. 313 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:12,359 Speaker 1: It could costposing, right, yeah, So it depends what you're using. 314 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 1: That's why. The one thing I really don't like is 315 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 1: those maybe you've seen them. It's the gutter guards there 316 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 1: like a block of foam and it, you know, lets 317 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 1: water penetrate. Oh yeah, but then when the leaves get 318 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:28,119 Speaker 1: stuck on the surface of that and start decomposing, it 319 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:31,360 Speaker 1: gets black and gooey and it clogs up that foam 320 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:34,720 Speaker 1: and you don't have good drainage. You're just clogging up 321 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 1: the foam instead of the gutter. So not good. I 322 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:41,960 Speaker 1: don't got to stay on top of that because you 323 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,560 Speaker 1: know if and again a lot of people don't realize 324 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 1: ice dams in a lot of cases occur just because 325 00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 1: you don't have enough insulation in the attic melts the 326 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:55,200 Speaker 1: snow at the top of the roof, water runs down, 327 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:57,840 Speaker 1: it gets the overhang and where the gutters are, and 328 00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 1: it freezes and then you got big problems. So because 329 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 1: there's nowhere for that water to go, issues with the weather. 330 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 4: When we were pulling in yesterday, I said, uh to 331 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 4: my wife. I looked up at all the roofs and 332 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 4: ours was still white.

But we're starting 400 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:43,120 Speaker 1: to find that if it's determined that the maintenance around 401 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:46,440 Speaker 1: that house and around that gutterline and around those soffets 402 00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:50,200 Speaker 1: and faces are not being maintained and that's how they 403 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:53,919 Speaker 1: gained entry into your home, you may have a claim 404 00:23:53,960 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 1: that's going to be disputed by the insurance gutmany So well, 405 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,359 Speaker 1: we'll talk about all that and happy to take your calls. 406 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:05,880 Speaker 1: In the meantime, Again, it is eight hundred eight two 407 00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 1: three eight two five five. All right, Mary, welcome, Oh hey, 408 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:14,840 Speaker 1: good morning. 409 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:19,719 Speaker 5: A plumbing question. I have a plumbing question regarding a 410 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 5: remodel project. It's an old bathtub. We put in a 411 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 5: new you know, plastic surround, put in the new you know, 412 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:33,520 Speaker 5: Spickett's faucet. And my concern is the old tub. It 413 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:38,159 Speaker 5: has the old knob down below where you lift it 414 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:43,879 Speaker 5: up or down for the stopper, drain stopper. Okay, And 415 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:49,560 Speaker 5: this project's in Westerville, and whenever you turn the water on, 416 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:54,639 Speaker 5: it seems like there's extreme pressure and all when you 417 00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 5: the spickett, the water that comes out, it seems like 418 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 5: it hits the the front of a spicket and then 419 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 5: it shoots back and drains on that that knob. And 420 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:12,399 Speaker 5: I'm the the drain knob, and I'm concerned it's an 421 00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:15,640 Speaker 5: old drain knob. I mean, we did replace the plumbing. 422 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:21,680 Speaker 5: Could we posturing is that could I turn the pressure 423 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 5: down in the house or well. 424 00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:26,520 Speaker 1: I guess that's really where That's a second. Where I 425 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:30,320 Speaker 1: was going to is has its number one been a 426 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 1: problem before? Number two is all the faucets have this problem. 427 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 1: And number three is do you know what the pressure 428 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 1: in your house is? 429 00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:44,160 Speaker 5: I don't know the pressure, but I know it's uh, 430 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:48,440 Speaker 5: it's it's high. It's I know it's I know it 431 00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 5: necessairly high pressure. 432 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:53,879 Speaker 1: Well, I guess the first thing I would do. You 433 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:57,919 Speaker 1: can get a pressure tester and it is screwed to 434 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 1: an outdoor faucet. That's where you would test it. And 435 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 1: do you have copper pipe in that house or do 436 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 1: you have plastic pipe. 437 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 5: Or mostly copper. It's a. 438 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:13,679 Speaker 1: Model, so in copper you would like to have that 439 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:17,800 Speaker 1: pressure under eighty, which is still a lot of pressure, 440 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,120 Speaker 1: And that's kind of what I have in my home. 441 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:23,080 Speaker 1: It's it's got a lot of pressure, but it's just 442 00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 1: a little under eighty, and that's fine. If you have 443 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:31,439 Speaker 1: plastic pipe, I'd probably prefer to be around sixty. So 444 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 1: you're going to have to calculate that in there. Two. 445 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:37,320 Speaker 1: But it sounds like you got pretty much copper pipe. 446 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 1: And you know, if you get a reading, which is 447 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 1: possible of one hundred and ten, you can get a 448 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 1: pressure or maybe you already have a pressure reducing valve 449 00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:54,960 Speaker 1: where you can decrease the pressure, which is usually right 450 00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:58,399 Speaker 1: where the water line's coming into your house. So first 451 00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 1: we just got to find out where it's at, you know, 452 00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:04,920 Speaker 1: where where that pressure is before we can make any adjustments. 453 00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:05,280 Speaker 1: I think. 454 00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:09,200 Speaker 5: All right, and then you could buy this pressure test thing. 455 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:12,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know, thirty thirty five bucks. You can 456 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 1: get them at you know, hardware stores. You can get 457 00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:17,879 Speaker 1: it at a big box stores. It's just a little 458 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 1: it's got a hose thread on there and so it 459 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:22,919 Speaker 1: screws on the outside of the faucet and you just 460 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,639 Speaker 1: turn that fussing on and give you a rate rating. 461 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,120 Speaker 5: All right, Well we will start with that and then 462 00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:33,119 Speaker 5: hoose DIBs. Do you really need to buy those tyrofoam 463 00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 5: things to protect with this cold weather? 464 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:39,960 Speaker 1: Well, you know they can't hurt you, but your question 465 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:43,119 Speaker 1: is do you really have to? I think the first 466 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 1: question I asked back to you is it depends what 467 00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 1: kind of hose bib you have. So there's two basic types. 468 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:56,920 Speaker 1: There is a what they call frostproof faucet, which has 469 00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 1: the handle the faucet, and then part of that handling 470 00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:05,159 Speaker 1: faucet is a copper tube that's either eight ten or 471 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:09,600 Speaker 1: twelve inches which goes through the foundation wall and it 472 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:13,639 Speaker 1: is connected to the pipe inside the house. When you 473 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 1: turn that off outside, if it's installed properly, it's tilted forward, 474 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:22,040 Speaker 1: and you turn that off, there's a stem just like 475 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 1: there's an off faucets, and it has a washer, and 476 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:28,920 Speaker 1: that washer is actually on the inside. It's at the 477 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:32,040 Speaker 1: very end of that tube, which is inside the house. 478 00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 1: So when you shut that off, the water in that 479 00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:38,760 Speaker 1: pipe drains out. Hopefully there's no hose attached to it. 480 00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:42,320 Speaker 1: It drains out, and you know you're shut You've shut 481 00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:45,600 Speaker 1: that off basically from the inside the house. If it's 482 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:49,440 Speaker 1: the older type, you'll have a shut off out inside 483 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 1: the house, and uh, you'll shut that off. You'll take 484 00:28:56,320 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 1: a little cap off which drains that pipe. And you know, 485 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 1: if that's been done, you would not need that starfoam. 486 00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 1: But if it has not been shut off from the 487 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 1: inside of the house, first of all, I'd shut it off. 488 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 1: And if you want to use a star from cover 489 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,040 Speaker 1: on that, then that would be a very good idea. 490 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:20,000 Speaker 5: Okay, all right, well, thank you very much. 491 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 1: All right, very good. Thank you appreciate it. So we 492 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 1: talk about this in the fall all the time. But 493 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 1: you know, I know, life gets in a way. We 494 00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 1: hear something and we don't do it. And the preach is, 495 00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:37,960 Speaker 1: don't forget to take your hose off the outdoor faucet, 496 00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:41,000 Speaker 1: even if it's a frost proof because remember I said 497 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 1: that frostproof shuts the water off from the inside of 498 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:46,640 Speaker 1: the house, which it does tilted forward, which it is, 499 00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:50,120 Speaker 1: And if that hose is connected, that water is filling 500 00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 1: that hose up and it's backing up in that pipe, 501 00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 1: and quite honestly, you're not protected anymore than if you 502 00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:01,760 Speaker 1: had an exposed piece of pipe. So the hose absolutely 503 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:06,760 Speaker 1: positively has to be has to be off off that faucet. 504 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:10,360 Speaker 1: All right, let's grab Alan real quick. Alan, welcome. 505 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:14,680 Speaker 6: Well, yes there, Hey, I've got a question about some 506 00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 6: new water lines. I ran, did a remodel, added a bathroom. 507 00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 6: Well that bathrooms about forty feet away, maybe fifty feet 508 00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:26,959 Speaker 6: away from the existing water lines. And my question is 509 00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:29,239 Speaker 6: I've hooked into the existing water lines. Am I going 510 00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 6: to have a problem with pressure reaching that new bathroom 511 00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:36,240 Speaker 6: since it's like fifty feet away. Well, they're going to 512 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:40,400 Speaker 6: be like a pump system that can help it out. 513 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, well there is to answer your question, there is 514 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 1: a pump system. The real question is people get confused 515 00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:50,800 Speaker 1: on this particular thing, and I don't really know how 516 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:53,320 Speaker 1: to really really really super explain it to you. But 517 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 1: there's two issues with the water coming in your home. 518 00:30:57,200 --> 00:31:02,719 Speaker 1: There's pressure and there's volume, okay, and you know they 519 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 1: seem like they're related, but they're really not. If you 520 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 1: don't have enough volume of water. In other words, we're 521 00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:11,400 Speaker 1: changing diameters of pipe, and you know, it kind of 522 00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:14,280 Speaker 1: gets you know, that volume is not there, so it 523 00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 1: feels like it's doesn't have the pressure but actually has 524 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:21,040 Speaker 1: the pressure in the pipe and in the system, but 525 00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:24,040 Speaker 1: you just don't have enough volume of water. So I 526 00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 1: don't know how to answer that, quite honestly, if I'm 527 00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:30,680 Speaker 1: also hook a shower to it too, So I didn't 528 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 1: know if that's going to be an issue. Well, I 529 00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 1: think what you're going to decide is what the pipe 530 00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:40,200 Speaker 1: that you're tapping into. Is it a half inch pipe? 531 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 2: Copper? 532 00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:43,880 Speaker 6: There is a I went from copper to pecks. 533 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:48,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, and what size is that the pecks? Is 534 00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:50,800 Speaker 1: that the same size? Yeah? 535 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 6: Same size half inch? 536 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 1: What kind of pressure volume are you running in the 537 00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:56,120 Speaker 1: house right now? Do you know? 538 00:31:57,120 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 6: Uh? I want to say the pressure probably right around 539 00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:05,560 Speaker 6: maybe seventy five eighty is that about right or not. 540 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 1: Well, that's that's good pressure. That's good pressure. That's what 541 00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:11,720 Speaker 1: I was saying. That's kind of it at the peak. 542 00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:14,240 Speaker 1: You know, you don't really want to go over eighty. 543 00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 1: If you go on and you go to a Google 544 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:28,000 Speaker 1: and chart out pressure length and talk about the volume 545 00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:31,000 Speaker 1: of copper, I think you might get your answer. I 546 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:33,720 Speaker 1: think if you stay in a half inch category, you 547 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:37,160 Speaker 1: may be all right. But there's a chart that'll tell 548 00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 1: you that on how far you're going to be able 549 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:42,560 Speaker 1: to run that line and the pressure that you have 550 00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 1: on that line to get to where you need to go, 551 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:48,040 Speaker 1: and and I don't have that at the top of 552 00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:50,560 Speaker 1: my head, so that's something you're going to have to 553 00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,280 Speaker 1: look up. But I'm gonna guess you if you stay 554 00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:57,320 Speaker 1: in that same category of pipe and run it, you 555 00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:02,040 Speaker 1: may be all right. It's I know it's long, but 556 00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 1: if you're doing copper and there's no uh, you know, 557 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:09,120 Speaker 1: corrosion inside that like there would be on galvanized pipe, 558 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 1: I'm gonna guess you're gonna be all right. But it's 559 00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:13,680 Speaker 1: a guess. You're gonna just have to look at that 560 00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:17,520 Speaker 1: and get that equation figured out to see if it's 561 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:20,360 Speaker 1: going to be enough for not Alan. All right, thank 562 00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 1: you much for the call.

It's eight hundred 606 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:23,720 Speaker 1: and eight two three eight two five five. Just looking 607 00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:27,680 Speaker 1: up that copper line thing, just to give you an example. 608 00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:29,879 Speaker 1: I looked it up as I asked him to look 609 00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:32,960 Speaker 1: it up. Also the short answers yes usually, but it 610 00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:35,439 Speaker 1: depends what you're feeding and how much is already there. 611 00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:39,279 Speaker 1: Same thing we said, if you have a half inch 612 00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:44,800 Speaker 1: copper line, it brings about four to five gallons permitted 613 00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 1: with acceptable pressure loss. A fifty foot run by itself 614 00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:53,279 Speaker 1: not gonna be a problem. The bigger issue is not 615 00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:57,320 Speaker 1: the volume, but the pressure drop with multiple fixtures running 616 00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:01,320 Speaker 1: at the same time. And here's the deal. So at 617 00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:06,160 Speaker 1: a four gowns permitted half inch copper loses about two 618 00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:13,440 Speaker 1: to three psi per fifty feet. That's minor if the 619 00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:16,919 Speaker 1: pipe were dedicated, So you got to start figuring out 620 00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 1: how much loss so we had. He said it was 621 00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:23,279 Speaker 1: about eighty I believe, and two to three feet, So 622 00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:25,760 Speaker 1: you really got to find out what's on that line. Okay, 623 00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:30,600 Speaker 1: so two to three psi drop per fifty feet and 624 00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:35,000 Speaker 1: you're running eighty and you could be probably fifty five 625 00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:40,160 Speaker 1: to sixty and have acceptable pressure. So you have to 626 00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:42,920 Speaker 1: have quite a few faucets on there to have that drop. 627 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:47,520 Speaker 1: And so anyway, I wanted to just pass out along. 628 00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:50,359 Speaker 1: If he's still listening or didn't look it up, that's 629 00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:53,560 Speaker 1: a quick answer. You got to do a little bit 630 00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:56,760 Speaker 1: more digging, and don't we all when you're into plumbing, 631 00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:59,239 Speaker 1: you're always going to do some digging, all right. Our 632 00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:01,879 Speaker 1: phone number again is eight hundred and eight two three 633 00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:07,000 Speaker 1: eight two five five talking about and dog gunnet. You know, 634 00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:10,160 Speaker 1: when it gets cold outside, we do have a tendency 635 00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:13,640 Speaker 1: to talk a little bit more about plumbing and kind 636 00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:16,799 Speaker 1: of starting to show off too. Where we're at. We'll 637 00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:22,719 Speaker 1: probably have our first below zero morning coming up in 638 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:27,040 Speaker 1: the next few days, and it really behoove anybody that's 639 00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:32,080 Speaker 1: in that area, and it's I don't know, I think 640 00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:34,799 Speaker 1: We had one of those days last year. Don't have 641 00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:39,319 Speaker 1: too many, but you just really got to know or 642 00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:45,879 Speaker 1: really examine the pipes in your home. Where are they 643 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:50,440 Speaker 1: and are they secured with warmth? A lot older homes 644 00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:53,600 Speaker 1: in our communities, those pipes might run through cross spaces. 645 00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:59,200 Speaker 1: Red flag top of a garage ceiling, uninsulated, red flag 646 00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:05,120 Speaker 1: in an attic, red flag running on an outside wall, 647 00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:10,240 Speaker 1: underneath cabnet tree, red flag. That doesn't mean it's gonna freeze. 648 00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:14,120 Speaker 1: That just means if it isn't properly insulated, or that 649 00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:17,960 Speaker 1: wall hasn't had a foam insulation pumped into it, you 650 00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:24,839 Speaker 1: have the potential. Let's go to Jerry. Jerry, welcome, how 651 00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:26,720 Speaker 1: you doing doing fine? Thank you. 652 00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:31,000 Speaker 7: Good.

Some of the boards, some of the boards 657 00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:45,799 Speaker 7: becoming the league. And I heard you talk about a 658 00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:49,120 Speaker 7: compounder take the paint on the board and ever top 659 00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:49,960 Speaker 7: tuff it up. 660 00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:56,360 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, there there are so so the wood floors 661 00:39:56,400 --> 00:40:01,480 Speaker 1: that got wet. Are are they cuppy and crowning and 662 00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:05,440 Speaker 1: moving or or have they already become a dry rotted 663 00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 1: or tell me a little bit more about them. 664 00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:10,719 Speaker 7: I'm afraid to step on it. 665 00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:14,560 Speaker 1: Well, that's what I was afraid you were going to say. So, 666 00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:20,319 Speaker 1: there is a product it is called liquid wood, and 667 00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:26,359 Speaker 1: it goes in and it firms up the fibers of 668 00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:31,200 Speaker 1: the wood, but it's it's not going to improve the 669 00:40:31,239 --> 00:40:36,960 Speaker 1: structure of that wood, so that that's not going to 670 00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:43,840 Speaker 1: be your answer. Your answer is, yeah, yeah, your answer 671 00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:49,200 Speaker 1: is replacement in that case if it was a baseboard, 672 00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:54,040 Speaker 1: and if it's a baseboard, something along those lines. Yeah, 673 00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:56,480 Speaker 1: did the water Did this just happen or has it 674 00:40:56,520 --> 00:40:58,040 Speaker 1: been happening for a while. 675 00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:00,920 Speaker 7: Over twenty years? 676 00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:06,200 Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, Well is it a solid wood floor? In 677 00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:09,120 Speaker 1: other words, it's not like an engineered wood, it's solid wood. 678 00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:12,120 Speaker 7: No, that's the original pine. 679 00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:15,520 Speaker 1: Okay, So it's not tongue and groove, it's just pine 680 00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:21,240 Speaker 1: floors right over the the joist. Correct, yeah, correct, Okay, 681 00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:25,040 Speaker 1: So yeah, that would you know, finding the species of 682 00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:28,920 Speaker 1: wood is probably you're gonna probably have to remove it 683 00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:31,520 Speaker 1: and then try and find the same species of wood. 684 00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:34,960 Speaker 1: I mean, it could be all kinds of things that 685 00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:39,759 Speaker 1: would be oak, maple, It could be you know, way 686 00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:41,800 Speaker 1: back in the day, there'd be fur. I mean, it 687 00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:44,320 Speaker 1: could be all kinds of things, but it would. And 688 00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:47,160 Speaker 1: are those floors stained or are they painted or what 689 00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:47,800 Speaker 1: are they. 690 00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:50,960 Speaker 7: Stained stained? 691 00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:56,160 Speaker 1: So you're, you know, the chances of matching that perfectly 692 00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:59,080 Speaker 1: is going to be a challenge. But I think your 693 00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:03,640 Speaker 1: only real answer is to remove remove that those rotted 694 00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:10,319 Speaker 1: boards and replace them and check the choice too, well, 695 00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:12,920 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to get somebody specialized in wood floors 696 00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:17,480 Speaker 1: or a carpenter. Then yes, okay, all right. 697 00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:20,000 Speaker 7: I appreciate your time and appreciate your. 698 00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:24,399 Speaker 1: Show, you sir, thank you very much. Appreciate. Yeah, that 699 00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:27,200 Speaker 1: liquid wood, by the way, is a wonderful, wonderful product, 700 00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:30,960 Speaker 1: don't don't get me wrong, But when you're talking about 701 00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:36,920 Speaker 1: a structure, and back in those days there was really 702 00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:41,279 Speaker 1: no you know, underlayment or you know wood underneath that. 703 00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:46,560 Speaker 1: They just used the boards as your floor, which straddled 704 00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:52,920 Speaker 1: the joys and so there, you know, the other option 705 00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:56,280 Speaker 1: is to go right over and put a subfloor down 706 00:42:57,440 --> 00:42:59,960 Speaker 1: and then put all new wood flooring. And I knew 707 00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:03,000 Speaker 1: you probably don't want to do that. Either, but finding 708 00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:05,680 Speaker 1: that right species, making that stained match is going to 709 00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:08,879 Speaker 1: be a big challenge, very big challenge. May or may 710 00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:12,600 Speaker 1: not even be able to do it. But getting in 711 00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:16,480 Speaker 1: there and seeing what you got is important. That liquid 712 00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:19,480 Speaker 1: wood is it's fun. If you're doing a baseboard, you're 713 00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:23,520 Speaker 1: doing a decorative base on a column, you put that 714 00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:26,960 Speaker 1: on there. It hardens that wood and really allows you 715 00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:30,200 Speaker 1: to then use a wood epoxy to make the patch. 716 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:34,080 Speaker 1: And that's really the intention of that particular product. So 717 00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:39,719 Speaker 1: I don't want to run that VYU and just give 718 00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:42,719 Speaker 1: you some information about that.
