Well, where I'm at and at our 15 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 2: flagship station out of Cincinnati, Ohio, we had our first 16 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:19,640 Speaker 2: freezing night, so it kind of reminds me to remind you, 17 00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 2: and I know in lots of parts of the country 18 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:27,200 Speaker 2: it's been very dry and drought conditions in some cases, 19 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 2: and you've probably been using the hose on plants, maybe 20 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 2: your yard, and it's probably still attached to the faucet, 21 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 2: and that's a no no. That's a no no. Whether 22 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:45,280 Speaker 2: you have an old lawn faucet or whether you have 23 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 2: a frostproof faucet where you think it won't freeze and 24 00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 2: it won't split, Well, you're right. 25 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 1: On half of that. 26 00:01:56,120 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 2: But if you have your hose connected, it can't drain 27 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 2: the water out of the pipe, and it can freeze 28 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 2: and it can split the pipe. So time to unscrew 29 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 2: that that hose from the faucet. You can always put 30 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 2: it back on. Just don't go through the winter. Don't 31 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 2: go through freezing nights with that hose attached to the faucets. 32 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 2: It's a big, big time no no. 33 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 1: All right, you can grab that line at eight hundred 34 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:26,960 Speaker 1: and eight two three eight two five five and Greg 35 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 1: you lead us off today. 36 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 3: Welcome, well, good morning to you, sir. 37 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 1: Morning about a here we goo. 38 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 3: I talked with you regarding tannon stains on my driveway. 39 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 3: Huh And you had suggested getting some oxalic acid. 40 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:45,359 Speaker 2: Oh, I look through all the local do what maybe? 41 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 1: Oh the oxalic acid I talked about barkeeper's friend or no, no. 42 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 3: This is this was regular oxalic acid. I tried barkeeper's 43 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 3: friends and it laughed. 44 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 1: Okay, it wasn't strong. 45 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,639 Speaker 3: So anyway, the oxalic acid I was able to find 46 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:02,079 Speaker 3: was a small out and ridiculously expensive in the ready 47 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 3: to use. Okay, so I was able to locate some 48 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 3: lab grade oxalic acid powder. But now how do I 49 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 3: mix it? And what kind of dilution should I use? 50 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:16,639 Speaker 1: Oh? 51 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 2: That I don't know because I don't know the strength. 52 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 2: You said it was kind of more of a commercial grade, 53 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,399 Speaker 2: so we'd be using less. But I don't know how 54 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 2: you would mix it. 55 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 3: Okay, Well, the grade is nine to nine point nine seven. 56 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. I have no idea. I have 57 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 2: no idea. In fact, the oxalic acid I was picturing 58 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 2: during that call one was you know, and you said 59 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 2: it laughed at it, which I get depending on how 60 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 2: deep that stain is. Was the exalic acid in Barkeeper's Friend. 61 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 2: But they also use oxalic acid for wood bleach, for 62 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 2: like wood floors with a stain. 63 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 3: Well, the big issue I've got I've got over nine 64 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 3: hundred square feet I need. I've got two big trees 65 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 3: that drop, and when they drop, they slack, you know. 66 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 3: So it's not a case where I'd be able to 67 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 3: go and do spot here and spot there and spot 68 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 3: somewhere else. It would basically be starting at one end. 69 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 3: Of the pad and going all the way across. 70 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:27,839 Speaker 2: Wow, and it says it's ninety pure. 71 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 3: Ninety nine point labrade. This is lab grade. 72 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:36,799 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. 73 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:41,160 Speaker 2: So because of that, I'm not really sure I can 74 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 2: comfortably tell you here. I think it depends on the 75 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 2: grade and the and the what the job is. And 76 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:53,480 Speaker 2: I'm sure there's a whole category of different mixing rates, 77 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 2: but I don't know what they are. 78 00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 1: Okay, Well, I think i'd probably start out. 79 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm just guessing if you want to try it, 80 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 2: I'd probably maybe start out with two or three tablespoons 81 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:12,839 Speaker 2: in like a quart of water, and then brush it 82 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 2: on the stains, let it sit I don't know, fifteen 83 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 2: minutes or so, and then just kind of rinse, you know, 84 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 2: scrub it then and then just rinse it and see 85 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 2: if that helps. Okay, I think i'd play with it, 86 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 2: play it in a inconspicuous place. Since it is an acid, 87 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 2: even though it's like solid acid, it would have the 88 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:40,160 Speaker 2: ability to bleach out the concrete a little bit, so, 89 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 2: you know, use it in a back part of the 90 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:46,720 Speaker 2: driveway or whatever it is. First, I don't want you 91 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,480 Speaker 2: to have a big, old, bright piece of concrete in 92 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 2: the middle of your driveway. 93 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 1: But why don't you try that? 94 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 2: In fact, even if you want to cut it back 95 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 2: to like two tablespoons to a quart of water, and 96 00:05:57,279 --> 00:05:59,840 Speaker 2: if it goes nowhere, maybe move it up a little bit. 97 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 2: I think you're going to have to play with it 98 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:06,039 Speaker 2: or google it and see if they have something, you 99 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 2: know where you would put in the purity of the 100 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 2: oxalic acid it's a powder. What is my mixture rate 101 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 2: for walnut stains or something along those lines. You might 102 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 2: be able to get a definitive answer, but I can't 103 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 2: tell you. 104 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 3: Okay, all right, good now, next question I've gotten. I 105 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:25,920 Speaker 3: want to put a coat hangar rack in my basement. 106 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 3: This is an unfinished basement, so I've got the floor joist. 107 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 3: There is there any kind of formula that you know 108 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 3: since I don't have the ability to cut threads on 109 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 3: black iron pipe, is there any kind of a formula 110 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 3: that you would be aware of using standard black iron fixtures? 111 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 3: You know, the short nipples and the right angles and 112 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 3: the little you know, the flanges and such that I 113 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 3: could purchase and then have someone cut me the threads 114 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 3: on the longer run of pipe. 115 00:06:57,520 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 1: How much clothes are you going to put down there. 116 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 3: This isn't just for this is just for the hangers, 117 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 3: because right now they're hanging on my cropper water pipes. 118 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 3: I don't like that. 119 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:07,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, why don't you. 120 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 2: I'll give you another idea, which is going to be 121 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 2: about ninety percent less expensive. That's why I was saying, 122 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 2: I don't know how much how many clothes you're going 123 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 2: to put on there. But the first thing that comes 124 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 2: to mind. Have you ever seen those clothes hangar bars 125 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 2: that you would put in a car. Yeah, it's got 126 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 2: little wire loops at the end of it. Why don't 127 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 2: you put in a couple of screw hooks in the 128 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 2: joys and just take those little loops and just hang 129 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 2: them over the screw hooks. 130 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 3: You know, I think I've got one of those sitting 131 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 3: out in the garage somewhere. 132 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 1: I bet that'd be a whole bunch cheaper and a 133 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 1: whole lot easier. 134 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 3: Well cheaper, yes, easier. If we go one of my 135 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 3: five minute projects usually takes three days. 136 00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 2: Well maybe this will be the exception. Right, all right, 137 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 2: you bet you? Greg, Thank you? Take care? Yeah, yeah, 138 00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 2: I mean the iron pipe's great, it's going to hold up. 139 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 2: But by the time you start putting in pipes and 140 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 2: unions and threading the pipe that's going to get expensive. 141 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 2: One of those might be an easy way. In fact, 142 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 2: I actually Jesus has been a while, but a death 143 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 2: in the family and the clothes and donating and getting 144 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 2: him out of a house. And I did an arrangement 145 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 2: like that down in our basement, just a storm for 146 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 2: a while till we figured out and you know, let 147 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:33,840 Speaker 2: the dust settle on what we're going to do with 148 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 2: the clothing, and hung them down in the basement and 149 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 2: got them out of the apartment. And it was a 150 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 2: It was very convenient. It was very convenient. So put 151 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 2: that on your list.

I had a forty foot white pine 252 00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:11,280 Speaker 7: been there forever, cut it down two years ago. Let 253 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:15,400 Speaker 7: the roots rot best I could. I intended intended to 254 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 7: rent a bobcap. I got a dingo instead, and it 255 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 7: was rough going. So I ripped up a bunch of ives. 256 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:24,600 Speaker 7: So this has never been cultivated. There's a bit of 257 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:28,520 Speaker 7: a ravine natural drain the back part of the property, 258 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 7: so yeah, it was a it was a rough weekend 259 00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 7: at any rate. I ripped out as bunch of the 260 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 7: ivy as I could, and ripped up some of the roots, 261 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 7: some as big as my arm, and I moved around 262 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:42,880 Speaker 7: a lot of the dirt around, and so what I'm 263 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 7: left with is a bit of a rise. There's a 264 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 7: fair amount of clay in the front part, which I 265 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 7: want to regrade away from my house. There's a driveway 266 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 7: blacktop pad behind it, and then I have about six 267 00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 7: inches to go down in the first third, and then 268 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 7: there's a an eighteen inch drop towards the ravine that 269 00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 7: I want to move a bunch of this material around, 270 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 7: try to level it out best I can. 271 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 1: Uh. 272 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 7: For let's say a bad minton area, It's about okay. 273 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 2: So you've got a whole bunch of work that you're 274 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:15,960 Speaker 2: going to do there, and and let Ron and I 275 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 2: just kind of wrap, you know, give you some advice 276 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 2: and uh so, what do you think about that, Ron, 277 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:21,760 Speaker 2: That is a lot of work. 278 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 5: Huh Now I wouldn't tackle it, yeah, I mean, but yeah, 279 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,840 Speaker 5: that's a lot of that's a lot of soil moving 280 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 5: and uh it. 281 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:33,120 Speaker 2: Is And who in the industry does that kind of work? 282 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 2: I mean, would it be an excavator because that clay 283 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 2: is not going to help you grow a nice bad mitten. 284 00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 5: Uh No, Well, they're going to do two things. One 285 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 5: is they're going to use to get the right soil 286 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 5: for the fill, because you bring top soil, you know 287 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 5: where you scrape that in if you don't have the 288 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:49,160 Speaker 5: right soil, and that's going to sink. I mean, if 289 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 5: you watch them regrade an area, they'll pull that top 290 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:55,600 Speaker 5: soil off right, regrade with the clay that's underneath, correct, 291 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 5: and then come back in. Once they're done with all 292 00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 5: of that grading and its final grade, then they come 293 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:02,080 Speaker 5: back and do the top soil on top. And that's 294 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 5: where everybody complains as well. Only get an entsw or 295 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:05,920 Speaker 5: two of top soil and a lot of times that's 296 00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 5: all it was anyway, you know, because top soil is 297 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,840 Speaker 5: just basically where the organic matter is breaking down the top. 298 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:14,320 Speaker 5: So it's a matter of making sure you use that 299 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 5: heavier soil in the fill areas and all before you 300 00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 5: do anything. And I think the other the other thing 301 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 5: I look at here too is if it's a sloped area. 302 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 1: And he said ravine too, Yeah. 303 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:27,360 Speaker 5: Make sure that that gets covered before we get into 304 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 5: the winter season. Obviously too late for seating. You may 305 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 5: get an annual ryot, but maybe too late for seating, 306 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 5: but you can still use that erosion netting things like 307 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 5: that to try to slow that down and hold that 308 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 5: hillside or that ravine the slope there. 309 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 2: Now, like if we're building something in a home, we 310 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 2: need to get like a you know, permit or an inspector. 311 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 2: I mean, you don't want to go at this haphazardly. 312 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, And again we don't know how big the area. 313 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:58,680 Speaker 2: I mean, it's herculation test and stuff like that. 314 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 5: All of that's involved. Technically, you are correct, and so 315 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 5: when an excavator would come in and take care of that, 316 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:08,359 Speaker 5: and there's you know, site one people there, there are people 317 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 5: that you know, do both the landscaping whatever and the 318 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:14,400 Speaker 5: moving of the soil. But again, yeah, you're right, they 319 00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:16,919 Speaker 5: kind of make sure all of those add up and 320 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:20,359 Speaker 5: come together, so you've got the proper drainings and proper 321 00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:22,159 Speaker 5: slope and all that, and then come in with a 322 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:25,159 Speaker 5: tennis court, which I would also have a pickleball on 323 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:28,679 Speaker 5: there too. So someone as old as you could volleyball, 324 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:29,879 Speaker 5: he was, oh volleyball. 325 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,200 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, yeah, there you go, way too active. 326 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:35,639 Speaker 5: That's yeah, especially if it's saying right. 327 00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:39,400 Speaker 2: So, well, you know, it brings up a good point too, 328 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,920 Speaker 2: is first of all. I mean, I'm not knocking him, 329 00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 2: but it's almost getting a little too late to do that, right. 330 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 5: I mean, well, I think it's ever too late. I 331 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 5: mean they're going to be doing grading and all that through. 332 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 5: I mean as long as the soil is workable. Where 333 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 5: you get into problems is that, Yeah, it would be 334 00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:59,639 Speaker 5: the erosion situation. And you know in situations like that, 335 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 5: like you don't go to construction site right now, there's 336 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:03,480 Speaker 5: one right behind our house where they're doing a lot 337 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 5: of soil moving right now, Well, anywhere where there's a 338 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:08,439 Speaker 5: ravine a swale that they're finished with and they finished 339 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:11,240 Speaker 5: those up before they did everything else. Those are now 340 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:14,400 Speaker 5: seated and they have erosion nettings on top of them, 341 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:16,919 Speaker 5: and they have the straw bales on the top, and 342 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 5: so they're doing everything they can because they know they're 343 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 5: not going to get any vegetation there for a year. 344 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:25,639 Speaker 5: But that's already done and covered anticipating that, you know, 345 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 5: because it's so late in the season. 346 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 2: So maybe helping other people out, would you start with 347 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 2: first find somebody's going to do that work.

It's eight 411 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:18,800 Speaker 2: hundred eight two three eight two five five. 412 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:19,920 Speaker 1: Start off the. 413 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 2: Show talking about how where I live we had a 414 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 2: freeze last night, and we're always talking about pipes possibly freezing. 415 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 2: And I guess the one thing the red flag right 416 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 2: now that I want to raise is the outdoor faucets. 417 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 2: All right, there's basically two types of outdoor faucets. There's 418 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 2: the old lawn faucet, where's the copper piping or galvanized 419 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:48,440 Speaker 2: piping comes up, goes through the wall of the exterior 420 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:52,439 Speaker 2: wall of the house and a faucet is attached to 421 00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 2: that pipe on the outside of the house. Now, when 422 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:02,480 Speaker 2: it starts getting around, you know, below freezing. The water 423 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 2: in that pipe can freeze. If it freezes, you know 424 00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:16,200 Speaker 2: solidly that that ice expands and can burst copper pipe. 425 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 2: And it's still under pressure because you've turned it off outside, 426 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:24,320 Speaker 2: but there's still pressure and water pressure going to that faucet. 427 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:29,080 Speaker 2: If it splits and burst, you got a flood. You 428 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:33,119 Speaker 2: got a mass all right. So what you want to 429 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:36,119 Speaker 2: do this time of year is there should be a 430 00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 2: valve that's feeding that outdoor fauct. You will turn that 431 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 2: off on the inside and there'll be a little cap 432 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:47,439 Speaker 2: on the side of the valve that you'll unscrew, have 433 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:49,720 Speaker 2: a little coffee cup underneath it, and you'll drain the 434 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:56,920 Speaker 2: water out of that pipe and you have shut off 435 00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 2: the water going to the outdoor faucet. So there should 436 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,879 Speaker 2: be a cutoff valve near that faucet on the inside 437 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,960 Speaker 2: of your home. And once you shut off the water 438 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:13,160 Speaker 2: and you drain it, you're golden. Now, some people have 439 00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:20,119 Speaker 2: frostproof faucets and we think they're impervious to splitting, but 440 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:24,400 Speaker 2: they're not. So the way they're installed is they have 441 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:28,199 Speaker 2: their own piece of pipe that's either eight, ten or 442 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:30,639 Speaker 2: twelve inches long to go through the ex tier of 443 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:33,919 Speaker 2: the wall of the house, and it would then that 444 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 2: whole pipe goes into the house and it connects to 445 00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:42,200 Speaker 2: the pipe on the inside of the house. But the 446 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 2: stem and the washer for that faucet is all the 447 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:50,760 Speaker 2: way through that pipe, and it's already on the inside 448 00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 2: the house. So you don't necessarily have to turn off 449 00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 2: the water on the inside of your house because that 450 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 2: faucet has already turned it off. But I would still 451 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:07,280 Speaker 2: turn it off and then open up that faucet and 452 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:09,679 Speaker 2: just you know, it might be a dripper too, but 453 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 2: you know, as a precaution, you can do it that way, 454 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:17,480 Speaker 2: or you can just turn the faucet off. And the 455 00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:20,520 Speaker 2: way it's installed or should be installed. That's why I 456 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:22,679 Speaker 2: said you might just turn the water off anyway. It 457 00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 2: should be tilted forward on the outside of your house. 458 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:32,159 Speaker 2: So when you shut the faucet off outside, the stem, 459 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,679 Speaker 2: the washer goes all the way inside the house shuts 460 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:38,160 Speaker 2: the water off there. It's tilted downward. What's ever left 461 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:42,960 Speaker 2: in that pipe dribbles underground. There's no water in that pipe. 462 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:50,680 Speaker 2: Now that's subject to the temperature that's outside. Unless there's 463 00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:54,639 Speaker 2: always an unless, unless you have a hose that is 464 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 2: still attached to that faucet. So when you're watering your 465 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:04,680 Speaker 2: plates in October, you shut off the faucet. The hoses 466 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:06,879 Speaker 2: laying on the ground or it's on a hose hanger 467 00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 2: or something along nose lines there. You shut off the faucet, 468 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 2: but there's water in that hose and back up and 469 00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:19,639 Speaker 2: in that pipe because it can't drop, it can't flush 470 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:22,600 Speaker 2: itself onto the ground. It's in the pipe, it's in 471 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:25,720 Speaker 2: the faucets, it's in the hose. It goes down to 472 00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 2: twenty degrees. You forgot you took the hose off, or 473 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:29,920 Speaker 2: didn't take the hose off. 474 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 1: It freezes. 475 00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 2: Maybe the hose or the uh the tubing splits and 476 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:40,440 Speaker 2: a little bit of that drops dribbles out. 477 00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 1: You don't even know it's a problem. 478 00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 2: Or maybe that whole hose is filled with water and 479 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:48,720 Speaker 2: it's a big problem, or it'll get your next spring. 480 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 2: Identify the type of valve you've had, and take the 481 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 2: steps accordingly to eliminate water damage. 482 00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:00,800 Speaker 1: In your home. All right, Taking your calls at eight 483 00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 1: hundred eighty two three eight two five five, Jerry, welcome. 484 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:13,040 Speaker 8: Yeah, Gary, thinking on a honeydew project.

I don't know about the trim, because there's 670 00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:21,000 Speaker 2: some weird stuff that stains that trim, and in some 671 00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:25,640 Speaker 2: cases it's probably the same type of stain that will 672 00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:31,200 Speaker 2: find on aluminum gutters. It's very difficult to remove. In fact, 673 00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:33,400 Speaker 2: one of the only things I found to really remove 674 00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:38,000 Speaker 2: it would be like a white wall cleaner. I know 675 00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:41,480 Speaker 2: that sounds weird. There's also a product called Purple Power 676 00:39:41,600 --> 00:39:45,440 Speaker 2: which will clean that.
