1
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:30,680
Speaker 1: All right, the weekend is upon us.

00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:49,040
Speaker 1: Hello, Yes, sir.

8
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:52,479
Speaker 3: Gary, thanks for taking my call. I've listened to you

9
00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:53,680
Speaker 3: for years. First time caller.

10
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:54,360
Speaker 1: Thank you.

11
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:57,400
Speaker 3: My house. My house is built in March and ninety

12
00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:01,240
Speaker 3: seven's all brick, including u two steps going up to

13
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,479
Speaker 3: the front stoop, which is also all brick. And I've

14
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 3: noticed in the last few years and I have a

15
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 3: little like eighteen inches retaining wall around my border of

16
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 3: my driveway on two sides. The edges of the bricks

17
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:19,320
Speaker 3: are I call flaking off. Somebody told me that's called spawling. Yeah.

18
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 3: Are these bricks are eventually disintegrate? I mean it just

19
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 3: seems like in the front porch and the retaining water though.

20
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 2: They could they could. It depends what type of brick

21
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 2: it is. And you know how old the house is,

22
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:37,559
Speaker 2: but you'res in that old Yeah ninety bricks are usually

23
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,280
Speaker 2: last well, they can last a long long time. But

24
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 2: back in the day, a lot of those bricks were

25
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 2: fired and everything else in the clay right from the

26
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 2: area where they're being built. Yours weren't, so they're probably

27
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:56,160
Speaker 2: fairly substantial. But once water gets in there and continues

28
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 2: to be there, it just really breaks down the bricks.

29
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 1: And my is that's kind of what's happening.

30
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 2: And it's getting soft and the surface spawling is you know,

31
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 2: it's probably less than a quarter inch deep about what

32
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 2: it is, Yeah, but it starts looking a little one sightly.

33
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 2: So I know you're gonna ask me, well, what do

34
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,359
Speaker 2: I do, And I'm not sure there's a lot you're

35
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 2: going to do. You can certainly put as. You can't

36
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 2: seal it because then you'll trap water in it if

37
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 2: it's coming from the backside. But you can seal it

38
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 2: to minimize water penetration, and there are ceilers that breathe.

39
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 2: But to patch it on brick, I mean, you could

40
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 2: put concrete on it, but you know it's not gonna

41
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 2: look real good.

42
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 3: I just know it's just the front steps, the two

43
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 3: steps going up to the stoop, which is all brick.

44
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 3: It's the edges. It's the only thing that's flaking off.

45
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,680
Speaker 3: And same on my cunning wall. It's just the edges.

46
00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 2: I wonder if the water puddles and goes to the

47
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 2: edges or sits up on the edges.

48
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 3: But it doesn't. It doesn't get that deep. Now step,

49
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,080
Speaker 3: I mean you know, it gets four or five inches

50
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 3: you know each step.

51
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Well, let's get a breathable ceiling on there.

52
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 2: See if we can slow it down. We're not going

53
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 2: to repair it, but I might be able to minimize

54
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:18,240
Speaker 2: the damage.

55
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 1: So it would mean the houses.

56
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:23,360
Speaker 3: The house is all brick. Now houses all brick, and

57
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,800
Speaker 3: those bricks are fine. It's just the front stoop and

58
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 3: the retaining wall around the driveway. It seems like coming apart.

59
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,639
Speaker 2: Well, moisture You've heard me say it a million times.

60
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 2: Moisture is the number one enemy of the house. And somehow, yes, somehow,

61
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 2: that's getting Uh, that's that brick there is vulnerable for

62
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 2: some reason.

63
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:45,680
Speaker 1: M soka.

64
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 2: Make sure it's a it's a make sure it says breathable, okay,

65
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 2: And usually the ingredients is a slock sain, which is

66
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 2: a silicone molecule that is also breathe bowl. Okay, So

67
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,320
Speaker 2: that that's really what you want. It minimizes water penetration

68
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:09,120
Speaker 2: but allows water beneath or underneath or side of it

69
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 2: to exhaust itself out of the brick itself.

70
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 3: Okay, all right, well thank you very much.

71
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 2: All right, very good. Thanks for the call. Appreciate it.

72
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 2: All right, let's go to Mike. Mike, welcome.

73
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 4: Oh yes, sir, Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas. I just kept

74
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 4: actually I was looking at these stop lost bags.

75
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,280
Speaker 3: Or I just had the.

76
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 4: Exterior of my house painted and by these bags. This

77
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,719
Speaker 4: one has an air van on the thing. You fill

78
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 4: it up, you can squeeze the air out of it,

79
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 4: and then supposed to last for.

80
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 3: Up to ten years. I don't know if that's the

81
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:47,840
Speaker 3: true statement.

82
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:48,600
Speaker 5: I never used them.

83
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:49,920
Speaker 4: I just didn't know if you ever heard of the

84
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 4: stop loss bags.

85
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:52,559
Speaker 1: No, I haven't.

86
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 2: So is this for what for what I mean, for

87
00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 2: the painting tools or for the paint can or what

88
00:04:59,000 --> 00:04:59,159
Speaker 2: is it?

89
00:04:59,200 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 1: I'm not familiar with it.

90
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:04,799
Speaker 4: Yeah, sir, it's for whatever you got a five gallon

91
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 4: jug or a little left at the painter, or left

92
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 4: or half whatever you get port in the bag. You

93
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,479
Speaker 4: get a funnel and a little thing to slide the

94
00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:17,360
Speaker 4: bag in where you just clamp it to a table

95
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 4: and you just pour your paint there and then sure

96
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,280
Speaker 4: instead of shaking the can up, you just moved the

97
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 4: bag around. I mean, I didn't know you've heard of anything.

98
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:31,040
Speaker 1: There's a couple of products out there. I know.

99
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 2: One of them is like a cup of about sixteen ounces,

100
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:38,000
Speaker 2: the whole sixteen ounces of paint. It's got a silicone

101
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 2: gasket around it minimizes air and penetration drying it out,

102
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,479
Speaker 2: and those work well. Also, I'm sure that BEG does

103
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:46,159
Speaker 2: the same thing.

104
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,039
Speaker 4: Okay, I'm just trying to get rid of the cans

105
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 4: because you know, I left them in the garage for

106
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 4: a couple of months and probably should have did that.

107
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 2: But yeah, yeah, Well that's one of my notes is

108
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,359
Speaker 2: you know, as the Christmas holidays pass, we all seem

109
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,839
Speaker 2: to be looking for more storage space. And one of

110
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:10,120
Speaker 2: the tips I have today is to go through your

111
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,680
Speaker 2: paint cans and see how many are even viable. And

112
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 2: I did this, I think about a year and a

113
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 2: half ago, and I had cans that I didn't even

114
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,560
Speaker 2: have the color of paint in our house anymore. So

115
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,839
Speaker 2: you know, we all kind of fall into those traps

116
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:32,119
Speaker 2: and you can donate that paint or whatever. But yeah, yeah,

117
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 2: I would say those bags would It sounds to me

118
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,960
Speaker 2: like once you pour it in there, do you vacuum

119
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:40,440
Speaker 2: any the air out of there?

120
00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 1: Or you just seal it.

121
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:43,919
Speaker 5: And it's got two caps.

122
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 4: One once you fill it up, okay, you can pour

123
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 4: it out. But the top cap where the funnel goes

124
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:54,479
Speaker 4: in to fill the bag up, okay, you on twitsch

125
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 4: that a little bit and squeeze all the air out

126
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 4: and then ah good.

127
00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:00,640
Speaker 5: It said it last for ten years, and.

128
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:01,480
Speaker 1: Well, I bet it does.

129
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 4: You know, it's got a thing on the you got

130
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,279
Speaker 4: a thing on the front where you can write, you know,

131
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 4: the paint code.

132
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 1: No, I love it. I'd love it.

133
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:13,320
Speaker 2: Anything's better than those cans because quite honestly, even saving

134
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 2: the cans, you never get those lids on perfectly.

135
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 1: I used to tell people to put you.

136
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 2: Know, even like a saran wrap and then hit the

137
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 2: lid down on it. But even the cans get bad.

138
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:30,600
Speaker 2: And those little cup things that I talked about. The

139
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:33,560
Speaker 2: kid who invented it actually was on Shark Tank and

140
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 2: they've since sold the company. I'm not familiar with the bags,

141
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 2: but it sounds good to me. I think it'd be

142
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 2: well worth it, if you know, want to store the

143
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 2: paint for sure.

144
00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, they're called stop Lost Bags.

145
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 1: I'll take a look at them.

146
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,119
Speaker 4: And then I think they call it kick the can

147
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 4: and stop lost bags or something. Yeah, Motel was it

148
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 4: was on the It was on the hardware show out

149
00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 4: there in Vegas one time.

150
00:07:59,000 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh yeah.

151
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 2: So I've gotten a lot of great products and ideas

152
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 2: from out in Vegas at the National Hardware Show. So

153
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 2: I'll look into it. But it sounds great. Really, my

154
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:10,760
Speaker 2: kids much better.

155
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 1: Than just keeping them into the can, I assure you.

156
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 4: All right, sir, I appreciate it having good new year.

00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:46,120

Speaker 2: Matthew twenty five ministries. We have one of those in

169
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:57,680

170
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 2: oil base too. Most play says will not take oil base. Uh,

171
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:10,319
Speaker 2: those are usually Counties will have different collection points for

172
00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:15,720
Speaker 2: oil based paints several times a year, but latex paints

173
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 2: are usually donatable. Don't throw them in the trash. I

174
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,319
Speaker 2: always tell the story somebody and are right after they

175
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:27,560
Speaker 2: paved the roads, somebody threw paint cans in the trash can,

176
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 2: and when they crushed the trash, you know where the

177
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:38,120
Speaker 2: paint went, right across the newly asphalted road.

178
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:40,920

231
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,719
Speaker 9: I've got a fireplace that got a house that was

232
00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,680
Speaker 9: built in seventy nine in the fireplace, I had the

233
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:03,480
Speaker 9: crown on, we paired and the waterproofed the fireplace at

234
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 9: the time. But it's probably been seven or eight years now,

235
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,800
Speaker 9: and I just want to maintain that waterproofing because it

236
00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 9: really helped. Uh, And I'm just looking for a product recommendation.

237
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,320
Speaker 9: I'm not going to do it now with all the raining, right,

238
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 9: I'm going to wait for it to dry out. So

239
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:24,079
Speaker 9: I'm going I'm looking for just a recommendation.

240
00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 3: I guess.

241
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:28,000
Speaker 2: Okay, so you're talking about the brick on the Chimney

242
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:34,760
Speaker 2: outdoors exactly, Okay, Okay, yeah, so we were talking. I

243
00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 2: don't know if you heard the other color. He was

244
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:40,160
Speaker 2: talking about a crownwash issue. And I had sent him

245
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 2: to a website called Chimney rx dot com. And I

246
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 2: would send you to that same website. Ron, It's Chimney

247
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 2: rx dot com. Or if you have some do it

248
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:57,120
Speaker 2: best hardware stores out in your area. I know they

249
00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:02,319
Speaker 2: carry the Chimney RX products, but they have a Chimney

250
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:08,840
Speaker 2: brick Chimney waterproofing product. And that's what it is. And

251
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:11,320
Speaker 2: you got to be careful the way you use the word.

252
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:16,600
Speaker 2: It is a waterproofing product. It's not a sealant because

253
00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 2: a chimney needs to breathe, but a waterproofing product waterproofs

254
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:28,240
Speaker 2: the exterior part of that brick on that chimney, so

255
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 2: it minimizes that brick from absorbing a lot of water

256
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:39,560
Speaker 2: and starting. You heard the other person talking about brick

257
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:43,360
Speaker 2: that was spawling, and I was saying, well, it's because

258
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 2: after so much water being absorbed, that's what happens. And

259
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:52,360
Speaker 2: also if you have free stall cycles, you run the

260
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 2: product the problem of having that pop surface pop off.

261
00:14:56,720 --> 00:15:00,520
Speaker 2: So jimneyrx dot com, you're looking for Chimney me brick

262
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 2: waterproofing product that can be sprayed on with a tanks prayer.

263
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:07,000
Speaker 2: It can be rolled, it can be brushed however you

264
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:11,520
Speaker 2: want to apply it. And your question on the timeframe

265
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:16,360
Speaker 2: is excellent because on a vertical surface, the lifespans about

266
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,040
Speaker 2: five to seven years.

267
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:23,520
Speaker 9: Okay, And that's good to know because when he was

268
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 9: doing that, he spelled just a little drop on my

269
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:31,680
Speaker 9: pavers and it was bubbling up and waterproofing at one

270
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:33,880
Speaker 9: spot on my pavor until this year.

271
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:39,000
Speaker 1: As I know, I know, it's that very good. Yeah,

272
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 1: it's time. It's time for sure, excellent.

279
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:04,080
Speaker 2: little just almost like an expansion crack is how you

280
00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:06,360
Speaker 2: can get your fingernail in it, or a pencil lead.

281
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:09,400
Speaker 2: But that's about it. You can't really put more concrete

282

286
00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:26,560
Speaker 2: Gary morning.

287
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 10: Okay, my question is about a indoor gas fireplace. Co

288
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:40,440
Speaker 10: Paine had it on about three weeks ago. Recently looked

289
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:45,560
Speaker 10: at it and the eight of the inside is black.

290
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 10: So my three questions are what happened? Can I clean

291
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:55,760
Speaker 10: that myself? And what can I clean it with?

292
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:56,880
Speaker 1: Yeah?

293
00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 2: So one question back at you is what color is

294
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:00,200
Speaker 2: the flying.

295
00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:10,240
Speaker 10: It's a yellowish okay, yeah, yellowish on the tips right,

296
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,880
Speaker 10: maybe a little orientish in the center.

297
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:15,840
Speaker 2: Ish ye, any blue flame at all down at.

298
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:16,440
Speaker 1: The base.

299
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:19,960
Speaker 10: Maybe a small amount.

300
00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:24,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, So it could be a number of things. So

301
00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:27,400
Speaker 2: you know, it's just a matter of some time. I'm

302
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:29,240
Speaker 2: gonna give you a litany of what it can be,

303
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 2: all right, and you'll probably need to clean the logs,

304
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:36,680
Speaker 2: clean the inside, and also clean the burner. It could

305
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 2: be a lack of oxygen where the you know, intake

306
00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 2: isn't allowing enough oxygen in there to burn it to

307
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 2: where there's a good blue flame, about half the flame

308
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 2: being blue.

309
00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:51,040
Speaker 1: That's why I asked that question.

310
00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:56,720
Speaker 2: The the orangish ones are usually there's impurities in there,

311
00:17:56,760 --> 00:18:00,240
Speaker 2: so it's not maybe getting enough oxygen. That's that would

312
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:03,360
Speaker 2: be a burner issue in a lot of cases.

313
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 1: That's it.

314
00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 2: But also even having the logs, you said, what happens

315
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:12,320
Speaker 2: if the logs somebody tried to clean the logs and

316
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 2: maybe restacked it or move some logs around. It can

317
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:19,280
Speaker 2: be that where it's and that happens a lot. If

318
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:22,639
Speaker 2: there's exact if you still have the owners, if you

319
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:26,000
Speaker 2: still have the owner's manual, pull that thing out. And

320
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:28,240
Speaker 2: what I would do first is I would get a

321
00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:34,639
Speaker 2: stiff brush paintbrush like you know, something along noselanes, and

322
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:38,080
Speaker 2: that black will just wipe off those ceramic logs. Take

323
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:41,400
Speaker 2: the logs outside, wipe them, and then your manual make

324
00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:44,080
Speaker 2: sure you stack them exactly like it tells you the

325
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:45,240
Speaker 2: order to stack them.

326
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:46,760
Speaker 1: That's key.

327
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:52,879
Speaker 2: If it's other than that, cleaning that inside off again,

328
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:54,240
Speaker 2: that brush is.

329
00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:55,440
Speaker 1: A good way of doing it.

330
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:58,960
Speaker 2: And then again, I don't know how you're getting the

331
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 2: airflow to that particular appliance, whether it's coming from outdoors

332
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:10,119
Speaker 2: or it's just using the indoor air outdoor outdoor. Just

333
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 2: check that vent that intake, make sure it's not clogged

334
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:16,399
Speaker 2: or minimized. They get clogged up with stuff also.

335
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:19,280
Speaker 10: Okay, all right.

336
00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:21,880

384
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:32,600
Speaker 2: three eight two, five, five, clean up, A little bit

385
00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:36,639
Speaker 2: of loose ends here, the one on the fireplace against fireplace.

386
00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:40,960
Speaker 2: Everything I said I stick to, But one thing I

387
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 2: did not mention is if you do have a lot

388
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 2: of accumulation of soot and you also have a lot

389
00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 2: of yellow burning flame and minimal blue flame, you should

390
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:53,399
Speaker 2: have blue flame and the yellow tips. He had orange

391
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:57,600
Speaker 2: and yellow, so certainly it could be the damper. I

392
00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:59,960
Speaker 2: didn't mention the damper. That's another one of the things

393
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,840
Speaker 2: I talked about airflow being important, stacking of the logs

394
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:07,119
Speaker 2: not being proper. But the real thing I wanted to

395
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:10,960
Speaker 2: add to that is it's also a sign of incomplete

396
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:18,879
Speaker 2: fuel combustion, which produces carbon monoxide. So if you have

397
00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:24,280
Speaker 2: a gas upplines like gas logs, you're living on thin

398
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:28,359
Speaker 2: ice without a carbon monoxide detector. Hopefully you have one,

399
00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:32,080
Speaker 2: Hopefully it's functioning, and if it is carbon monoxide, you

400
00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:32,920
Speaker 2: would be warned.

401
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:34,960
Speaker 1: Just wanted to pass that along.

402
00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:38,280
Speaker 2: The other one was on the paint. I kept saying.

403
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:41,600
Speaker 2: The cup, the touch cup. It's called a touch up cup.

404
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:45,480
Speaker 2: You can get like a three they're thirteen ounces silicone seal.

405
00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:49,159
Speaker 2: Air can't get to it, shake it up, and go ahead,

406
00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:55,040
Speaker 2: and you know, make your touch ups. You can get

407
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:57,119
Speaker 2: like a three pack for like eighteen bucks. You can

408
00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:00,879
Speaker 2: get two packses single cups like seven eight bucks. I

409
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:02,760
Speaker 2: wanted to pass that along also.

410
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:03,720
Speaker 1: So grab a line.

411
00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:05,439
Speaker 2: We've got a spot for you and Robert.

412
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:10,480
Speaker 1: Welcome, Hi Gary. How are you this one doing fine?

413
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:10,919
Speaker 1: Thank you?

414
00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:12,880
Speaker 3: All right.

415
00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 11: I've just got a follow up question going back to

416
00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 11: the paint.

417
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:18,080
Speaker 12: I've got a few.

418
00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:20,679
Speaker 11: I've got a few paint cans that have got in

419
00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:23,040
Speaker 11: the garage that you know, just got stuck in a

420
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:26,120
Speaker 11: corner and they've been there for a few years and

421
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:28,919
Speaker 11: the rest of the bottoms are rusted out, so the

422
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 11: pink's no good. And I just you said that you

423
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:35,400
Speaker 11: shouldn't set paint out with the trash and the rest

424
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:38,280
Speaker 11: of the rubbage, and I was just wanting to know

425
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,280
Speaker 11: what to do with those and dispose of doing properly.

426
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:41,760
Speaker 1: Well, I'm glad you asked that.

427
00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:45,600
Speaker 2: Number One is I want to even qualify something I

428
00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:49,080
Speaker 2: said when I said don't put them out for the trash. Obviously,

429
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:52,160
Speaker 2: one of the things I mean is don't put even

430
00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:55,480
Speaker 2: latex paint out for the trash, as long as it's

431
00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:58,879
Speaker 2: in its liquid form. So a couple of things you

432
00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:03,280
Speaker 2: can do is I don't know how much paints in

433
00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:06,280
Speaker 2: the can, but if you take the lid off the

434
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:10,200
Speaker 2: can and putting kitty litter, let the kitty litter absorb

435
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:15,840
Speaker 2: the paint and leave the lid off, it'll harden and

436
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:19,919
Speaker 2: at that point you can put Latex hardened paint in

437
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:20,760
Speaker 2: the trash.

438
00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:23,440
Speaker 1: That's an option. I'm just saying that.

439
00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:28,280
Speaker 2: The other option is are the paint cans leaking or

440
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:30,919
Speaker 2: are they just kind of rusted at the bottom.

441
00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:34,320
Speaker 11: They're just rusted in the bottom, so no, it's not leakage.

442
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:38,879
Speaker 2: Okay, So I was talking about people that collect paint.

443
00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:44,480
Speaker 2: I know in different cities there's multiple different organizations that

444
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:48,399
Speaker 2: will even some hardware stores will. I know when I

445
00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:52,640
Speaker 2: had the hardware stores, we took used paint or stored

446
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:56,720
Speaker 2: paint and we gave it to a company or a

447
00:25:56,840 --> 00:26:01,080
Speaker 2: nonprofit called keep Sencnight Beautiful. And what they did is

448
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 2: they poured Latex paint in the vats and reblended it.

449
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:10,520
Speaker 2: I also talked about Matthew twenty five ministries in my

450
00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:16,119
Speaker 2: town and they blend it and ship it overseas. So

451
00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:19,720
Speaker 2: as long as it's not leaking, I'm sure you could

452
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:22,879
Speaker 2: donate it at some organization in your city. Might have

453
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:29,040
Speaker 2: to ask around. But Latex paints very it can be repurposed.

454
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:34,200
Speaker 2: It can certainly be you know, donated, or if it's

455
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:37,080
Speaker 2: just you know, three inches of paint in the bottom

456
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,600
Speaker 2: of a gallon, can get some kitty litter and just

457
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 2: let it dry out solid and then it can be pitched.

458
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:50,040
Speaker 2: Oil based paints are a different ballgame. Those are usually

459
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:55,320
Speaker 2: county will have hazardous waist pickups or drop offs several

460
00:26:55,359 --> 00:27:00,880
Speaker 2: times a year and that's where those will go. All right,

461
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:04,400
Speaker 2: you bet, Thanks for the call, appreciate it, and let's

462
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:05,280
Speaker 2: go to Mike.

463
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:08,120
Speaker 1: Mike, Welcome, Oh.

464
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:12,399
Speaker 5: Good morning, Gary. Have a I have a question that

465
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:14,600
Speaker 5: I've been putting off for a long time because I'm

466
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:18,159
Speaker 5: afraid of what the answers might be. I've got a

467
00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:23,080
Speaker 5: home that was built in nineteen sixty It's in good,

468
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:28,159
Speaker 5: stable shape. I bought it in nineteen ninety nine, and

469
00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:31,800
Speaker 5: I've had plumbing work done over the years. I'm not

470
00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:34,960
Speaker 5: good at plumbing, so that and keeping my hands away

471
00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:43,640
Speaker 5: from electrical wires I've learned. But I've had traps are

472
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 5: planed out checked, I've had plumbing where they've replaced the

473
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:50,600
Speaker 5: shut off valves on pipes under sinx and all so

474
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:55,240
Speaker 5: plumbers have not noted anything in particular, but in the

475
00:27:55,320 --> 00:28:01,560
Speaker 5: kitchen drain and then in one bathroom them upstairs. I

476
00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:06,120
Speaker 5: get odors quite often, okay that at times are fairly strong,

477
00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:10,679
Speaker 5: and I have even tried maybe that'll stop the right product.

478
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:12,959
Speaker 5: But I saw odor exit that I hear from you

479
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:16,439
Speaker 5: all the time. I found an eliminator out of store.

480
00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:19,240
Speaker 5: I sprayed some of that into it, and it really

481
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:22,879
Speaker 5: does help mask it for a while. But I just

482
00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:25,480
Speaker 5: don't know. Is there something I'm missing that I should

483
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:26,840
Speaker 5: try first.

484
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:30,280
Speaker 2: Or yeah, yeah, maybe maybe so one thing I do

485
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:33,280
Speaker 2: want to add, So the odor eliminator does it masket?

486
00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:37,520
Speaker 2: It actually eliminates the odor. But if you're straining it

487
00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:40,120
Speaker 2: into a sink, I think what you have is you

488
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:44,320
Speaker 2: have an endless supply of odors. In other words, that

489
00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:47,280
Speaker 2: odor exit can't get to it to kill all the odor.

490
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:53,280
Speaker 2: So let let's take it. Is the bathrooms upstairs as

491
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:54,960
Speaker 2: are they used often or.

492
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:56,040
Speaker 1: Not much at all?

493
00:28:57,560 --> 00:28:58,520
Speaker 5: Used every day?

494
00:28:58,800 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 1: Okay? All right?

495
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:03,920
Speaker 2: And is there any of the odors around any bathroom

496
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,160
Speaker 2: appliance that isn't being used.

497
00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:11,360
Speaker 5: No, and I have not noticed any except when you're

498
00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:12,480
Speaker 5: standing over the sink.

499
00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:16,000
Speaker 2: Sink, right, okay, all right, Well, there's a couple drains

500
00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:19,480
Speaker 2: in a sink. Most people don't think about that. There

501
00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:22,240
Speaker 2: is the main drain in the center of the bowl,

502
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:27,120
Speaker 2: which could be the culprit or. As you go up

503
00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 2: to where you're standing up by on the wall of

504
00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 2: the vanity bowl, there's a little tiny hole or there's

505
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:39,200
Speaker 2: an oval shaped hole. And what that is is that's

506
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:43,440
Speaker 2: an overflow. And a lot of times people will treat

507
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 2: the drain, but they won't treat the overflow. So the

508
00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:52,520
Speaker 2: issue is we use, I say a lot. We use

509
00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:58,440
Speaker 2: all gel products. We have gel, toothpaste, gel, hair gel, deodorant, gel, soaps,

510
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 2: everything's gel, which makes it sticky. And on the inside

511
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:06,760
Speaker 2: of the main drain, that stickiness when we wash our

512
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:11,080
Speaker 2: hands or washer whatever we shave it, all that gel

513
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:17,040
Speaker 2: sticky stuff starts coding the drain trap the pipe, and

514
00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:20,960
Speaker 2: then bacteria, which can be whiskers, it can be dead skin,

515
00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:24,560
Speaker 2: it can be all kinds of things collects in that gel.

516
00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:31,400
Speaker 2: In that bacteria as it starts breaking down, begins to smell. Okay,

517
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:34,400
Speaker 2: and so what we need to do is we need

518
00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:38,040
Speaker 2: to clean that out. And there are products in the

519
00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:44,720
Speaker 2: hardware store that are enzyme based drain cleaners and enzyme

520
00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:48,960
Speaker 2: based drake cleaners break through that gel and it also

521
00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:53,600
Speaker 2: kills bacteria. So if you go to the hardware store

522
00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:55,960
Speaker 2: and you get an enzyme drain cleaner, and that's just

523
00:30:56,000 --> 00:31:00,920
Speaker 2: the way their market marked, it's usually a liquid or

524
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:05,360
Speaker 2: a granular. You mix it with water. Sometimes you just

525
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:08,400
Speaker 2: put the plug in the sink, put some warm water

526
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:12,000
Speaker 2: in there. Add the amount of enzyme drain cleaner that

527
00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:14,880
Speaker 2: it tells you to do, pull the plug or open

528
00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:18,760
Speaker 2: the stopper, and let it go down that drain, and

529
00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:23,560
Speaker 2: do not use that vanity bowl for that night, and

530
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:26,920
Speaker 2: you can use it in the morning and that will

531
00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:31,240
Speaker 2: eliminate that smell in the main drain. Now if you

532
00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:34,000
Speaker 2: have it and it still exists, or if you want

533
00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:36,840
Speaker 2: to get your nose near in that vanity bowl and

534
00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:39,440
Speaker 2: see exactly where that odor is, if it's coming from

535
00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:43,600
Speaker 2: the overflow up at the upper edges of that bowl,

536
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:48,240
Speaker 2: you can use a dishwashing liquid soap, you could use

537
00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:54,720
Speaker 2: bleach um and just put that down in that bowl

538
00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:59,920
Speaker 2: or in that overflow hole and again give it overnight,

539
00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:03,400
Speaker 2: and I think your odors are going to disappear.

540
00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:08,920
Speaker 5: I appreciate the ends. I'm familiar with the enzyme products,

541
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:11,560
Speaker 5: but I never never thought about that.

542
00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:17,640
Speaker 2: So the overflows, yeah, it'll even the overflow thing that'll

543
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:22,600
Speaker 2: produce odors, even if you know it's rarely ever used.

544
00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:27,320
Speaker 2: It's just it's just a way the uh, you know,

545
00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:31,560
Speaker 2: the moisture that's in a bathroom can activate that bacteria

546
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:35,040
Speaker 2: and make it smell. So I would try in the

547
00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:38,240
Speaker 2: drain an enzyme cleaner and then you know, put a

548
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:41,920
Speaker 2: little bleach down that overflow and see if that doesn't

549
00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:44,000
Speaker 2: help perfect.

550
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:45,000
Speaker 5: I appreciate it.

551
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,280

604
00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:07,680
Speaker 1: Doing fine? Thank you.

605
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:11,560
Speaker 13: He a couple of months ago, I heard you talking

606
00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:14,880
Speaker 13: about you was having problems with a refriger writer. And

607
00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:18,279
Speaker 13: then I believe last week he was talking about a

608
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:22,359
Speaker 13: smart home. I run across the situation with a wash

609
00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:27,080
Speaker 13: sheeed repair in the appliance repairment, come in and he

610
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:30,680
Speaker 13: was working on it, and he told me he showed

611
00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:35,000
Speaker 13: me every appliance and I didn't notice every appliance large

612
00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:38,279
Speaker 13: and small in your home now has a QR code

613
00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:41,719
Speaker 13: on it, and you could scape that QR code and

614
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:45,120
Speaker 13: it will give you the owner and operator's menu, give

615
00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:50,560
Speaker 13: you parts, breakdown partners, it will give you videos. I mean,

616
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:52,840
Speaker 13: it's just the wealth of information and you may not

617
00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:55,840
Speaker 13: want to repair yourself, but it gives you research and data,

618
00:36:56,280 --> 00:37:00,080
Speaker 13: you know. And he told me they're constantly updating. I

619
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:01,560
Speaker 13: mean there's a recall or something.

620
00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:02,040
Speaker 1: Right.

621
00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:06,640
Speaker 13: I've tried it and I actually ended up buying some

622
00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:10,520
Speaker 13: brushes and got through apartmember off the kitchen aid mixer,

623
00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:15,040
Speaker 13: right and I'll be darned that And I didn't know that,

624
00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:16,360
Speaker 13: And I just thought, well, you know a lot of

625
00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:18,560
Speaker 13: people could use that, right, A lot of people don't

626
00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:21,800
Speaker 13: keep the manuals or whatever. And I mean, it pops

627
00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:24,680
Speaker 13: it up all there on PDF form. You can scan it. Yeah,

628
00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:28,040
Speaker 13: you can pray, do whatever you want to do with it.

629
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:30,680
Speaker 1: Is that? So when did they start doing that? Did

630
00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:30,960
Speaker 1: he know?

631
00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:35,359
Speaker 13: Or he thought about five or six years ago?

632
00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:36,040
Speaker 1: Really?

633
00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:38,400
Speaker 2: See, I haven't really run into that. But what I

634
00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:42,400
Speaker 2: did with I do something similar, Scott. To be honest

635
00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:46,640
Speaker 2: with you, I'll use the chat GPT and I did

636
00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:50,480
Speaker 2: with my refrigerator I've done. I had an element on

637
00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:52,680
Speaker 2: the stove go out too, and it was it was

638
00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:56,600
Speaker 2: very cool, you know. I recovered the model number, which

639
00:37:56,719 --> 00:38:00,120
Speaker 2: was easy to do, and put that in there and

640
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:04,719
Speaker 2: and talked about the upper element and it told me

641
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 2: everything to do and I could click a button in

642
00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:12,600
Speaker 2: order the part. I mean it was. I'm not I'm

643
00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:15,760
Speaker 2: an appliance repair guy at all, but it was easy

644
00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:16,080
Speaker 2: to do.

645
00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:17,960
Speaker 1: It was easy to do.

646
00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:22,839
Speaker 13: It takes you to YouTube videos, yeah, or yeah, are

647
00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:26,600
Speaker 13: the manufacturer videos? And this gives you a wealth of information.

648
00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:29,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, the QR codes I haven't run into but I

649
00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:32,800
Speaker 2: mean QR codes have been around what fifteen years now,

650
00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:35,200
Speaker 2: and you are seeing them being used more and more,

651
00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:38,000
Speaker 2: in fact, almost on everything. I didn't even I may

652
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:41,120
Speaker 2: have a QR code on a refrigerator, to be honest,

653
00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:46,160
Speaker 2: But it turned out the refriger just just it was.

654
00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:51,920
Speaker 2: It was very interesting, you refrigerator was way it was

655
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:56,680
Speaker 2: a big problem. It was when the government changed the

656
00:38:56,719 --> 00:39:05,560
Speaker 2: refrigerant regulations on refrigerators. The manufacturing and the engineering of

657
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:11,880
Speaker 2: those refrigerators didn't quite keep up with the new refrigerants

658
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:16,080
Speaker 2: and the pan needed to be different, and this, that

659
00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:20,719
Speaker 2: and the other thing. They literally that refrigerator was sixteen

660
00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:25,720
Speaker 2: months old and basically rebuilt the inside of that thing. Yes,

661
00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:29,480
Speaker 2: you know, it may it may help somebody, but I mean, yeah, no,

662
00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:30,640
Speaker 2: I appreciate it.

663
00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:33,319
Speaker 3: Yeah.

664
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:35,279
Speaker 13: And I didn't even realize it was there either. So

665
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:37,839
Speaker 13: he told me, and I started looking, and I mean,

666
00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:40,800
Speaker 13: I've learned a little bit about oh, you know, just

667
00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:43,960
Speaker 13: just browled and much instead of Yeah.

668
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:46,040
Speaker 2: And and to be honest with you, I mean we

669
00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:52,480
Speaker 2: had a I think its a ge dryer or no,

670
00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:55,200
Speaker 2: it was a washing machine and it still had a

671
00:39:55,239 --> 00:40:00,359
Speaker 2: transmission in it and it was getting old. It just

672
00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:03,799
Speaker 2: starts shutting off and just doing a little research, I

673
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:05,960
Speaker 2: didn't see a QR code, but I'm going to look.

674
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:08,960
Speaker 2: And I don't know how long we've had it, but

675
00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:12,319
Speaker 2: I got to the same thing. Whereas information. Who's going

676
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:16,160
Speaker 2: to know this but a repair person. You literally unplugged it,

677
00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:24,000
Speaker 2: counted to five, plugged it in, reset it to turn on,

678
00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:27,440
Speaker 2: and you would open the lid and close the lid

679
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:34,000
Speaker 2: six times in twelve seconds, and it reset the transmission.

680
00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:36,600
Speaker 13: Yeah, that's crazy.

681
00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:39,160
Speaker 2: That's crazy, Like, who's going to know that except somebody's

682
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:40,240
Speaker 2: working on these things?

683
00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:41,680
Speaker 3: How much detail.

684
00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:44,680
Speaker 13: I do have some troubleshooting stuff on there, but you know,

685
00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:47,040
Speaker 13: I'm sure they're not going to put the prize repair

686
00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:47,880
Speaker 13: man out of business.

687
00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:49,680
Speaker 1: But no, no, there's plenty of work.

688
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:53,400
Speaker 2: But that that QR code, that that's a great idea

689
00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:56,960
Speaker 2: and that just takes you right there, no guessing. And

690
00:40:57,080 --> 00:41:01,240
Speaker 2: I appreciate your call. O got thank you week you

691
00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:01,799
Speaker 2: do the same.

692
00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:05,279
Speaker 1: Thank you. That's excellent. I'm looking for that one I

693
00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:05,799
Speaker 1: get off.

694
00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:10,040
Speaker 2: They got a little easy to use. Just use your

695
00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:12,120
Speaker 2: camera in most things. You don't even need a QR

696
00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:15,799
Speaker 2: code app take you right there to the website.

697
00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:17,120
Speaker 1: Ron Welcome.

698
00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:18,680
Speaker 5: Hi.

699
00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:21,680
Speaker 2: Guess yes, sir, I got.

700
00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:27,879
Speaker 12: A couple of questions about a furnace. I'm up in Wisconsin,

701
00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:34,880
Speaker 12: Central Wisconsin, and my current furnace is thirty nine years old. Okay,

702
00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:39,920
Speaker 12: it came with the house, and we're considering buying a

703
00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:43,719
Speaker 12: new furnace. And my question is is do we want

704
00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:47,840
Speaker 12: to clean the vents all the vent related pipes before

705
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:50,440
Speaker 12: or after we install that furnace.

706
00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:53,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you're interested in cleaning the duckwork, I'd probably

707
00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:56,640
Speaker 2: let them install the furnace and then have them have

708
00:41:56,880 --> 00:42:01,200
Speaker 2: the vent pipes cleaned. I don't think, to be real honest,

709
00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:04,200
Speaker 2: that it's going to make any difference one way or

710
00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:07,520
Speaker 2: the other, but I would probably do it after the

711
00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:09,279
Speaker 2: furnace has been installed.

712
00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:14,600
Speaker 12: Okay, all right, And one other question about that is

713
00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:18,799
Speaker 12: what type of humidifier would you recommend?

714
00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:22,799
Speaker 2: Well, I've got an April Air. I can't say I

715
00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:28,440
Speaker 2: could do a good consumer report on humidifiers right now,

716
00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:31,319
Speaker 2: but I can tell you my April Air youumidifier has

717
00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:35,879
Speaker 2: been there about, oh probably twenty years and has done

718
00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:40,640
Speaker 2: a great job. I have no complaints on it. My

719
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:44,839
Speaker 2: previous one was also an April Air and I had

720
00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:50,640
Speaker 2: to replace the cellnoid valve on it once. But the

721
00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:54,840
Speaker 2: April Airs, it's really a pretty simple process, quite honestly.

722
00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:57,759
Speaker 2: It's on the doctor. It's got a pad to catch

723
00:42:57,800 --> 00:42:59,960
Speaker 2: the water and you you know, you run a little

724
00:43:01,120 --> 00:43:05,520
Speaker 2: quarter inch soft copper water line and it wet's that

725
00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:10,399
Speaker 2: pad when the cellnoids call them for water. I mean,

726
00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:13,759
Speaker 2: that's that's pretty much the process. So I'd say in

727
00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:16,160
Speaker 2: April Air, a good company has served me well. But

728
00:43:16,239 --> 00:43:20,719
Speaker 2: again I can't give you the maybe competing companies and

729
00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:21,880
Speaker 2: how they would stack up.

730
00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:23,320
Speaker 1: That require a little research.

731
00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:24,840
Speaker 5: Well I was.

732
00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:27,640
Speaker 12: I didn't know if there was different types of them,

733
00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:29,840
Speaker 12: but it sounds sounds pretty simple.

734
00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:32,080
Speaker 1: Pretty simple. It is. It's pretty simple.

735
00:43:32,120 --> 00:43:35,680
Speaker 2: It's basically a pad on the duckwork that's connected to

736
00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:37,280
Speaker 2: a water line exactly.

737
00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:40,800
Speaker 12: Okay, all right, I do have one one more comment,

738
00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:43,640
Speaker 12: and that's on metal roofs. You had to show on

739
00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:44,840
Speaker 12: metal metal.

740
00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:47,440
Speaker 1: Roofs a few last weekends or whatever.

741
00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:53,239
Speaker 14: And one of the insurance things was that the insurance

742
00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:58,160
Speaker 14: that for fires, because without a asphalt roop, there's no

743
00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:02,200
Speaker 14: no fire that continue, right, it doesn't burn.

744
00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:05,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, And there are discounts given for those I know

745
00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:09,560
Speaker 2: they're very big out west for that very reason. So

746
00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:12,480
Speaker 2: thank you much for the call. I appreciate we got

747
00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:15,920
Speaker 2: that information, and thank you, thank you. Teresa. You'll be
