No thats city water. Just a bad case of Electrolysis...

Are they on well water?

Someone used a 5/8 hose on a 1/2 inch connector? Wtf?

I always use leak detection bubbles. The detector is handy but bubbles have never let me down. It's just stupid simple and ultra reliable especially is you use the more "clingy" solutions that stick to the fittings but in a pinch have just put soap and water.

They had also used the wrong thread tape

I just use my lighter to test instead of that fancy beaper thing.

Nice to see someone using a crescent wrench the right way for a change

What's that gas beeper called? I do electrical work, and we have a very similar tool in our trade

This was awesome I shut it off last week cuz I'm in an apartment & even though I shut off the hot water supply, I know the heating elements are still on, just checked finally got the new one installed and he didn't turn on the correct breaker, now I gotta find out if he put the lever in the correct position otherwise I'm going have to take a fancy Lady bath cuz it's not even warm😮

My temperature adjuster is too deep in the area you need to pop it out. Any ideas?

these are the moments when the ability to change your oscillating blade to a 90 position is amazing. people can say what they want about push to connects like these and sharkbites but they do a darn good job and at a solid price.

Was that silicone caulk on the pipes? Another handyman special lol

Not saying the installation is right but the open part below the T is drawing fresh air up and out. The only way that would be a danger is if the vent were to become blocked coming out of the roof. The real danger is the single wall pipe in an area that will eventually be filled with flammable products.

Nothing like calling something a joke and it snaps back and proves you to be an idiot 😂

I enjoy all of your videos. But you asked, so I will criticize: i would have wiped off the joint before applying heat, then started the heat on the pipe at the lower joint, just for a short while, then evenly apply heat around the bottom joint first, then run the flame up to the second pipe and joint as I touch the bottom joint with much less solder than you used, then do the same with the next joint. I would finish-up by letting it cool a bit, then wipe the joint off.

I was going to make the same video today! 🤣

And heat the fitting first, then top joint, bottom joint, both with silver solder not soft solder,

Use silver solder instead,

Read a deamn book😂 you hold the heat UNDER the solder joint and you do one connection at a time 😂😂😂this is a soup kitcken mess

I would focus the heat on the fitting rather than the pipe,and I would apply that heat to the bottom side of fitting. You're not heating everything,rather you are heating the direction you want to solder to travel. Careful not to apply too much heat. But what you did should work just fine.

If it’s clean and fluxed , Tap the solder every few seconds, to get it sucked in. To hot just burns off the flux.

I was taught to heat the fitting and then the pipe not the joint. It cooks out the flux.

I would use pex

Stay safe!

I never thought about putting the hose clamps on opposing each other. That makes perfect sense, but I never thought about it. Well done.

Man, that is crazy that you can get a well at 38 feet. They have got to be several hundred feet deep where I live. That is really cool. The only time I mess with pump lines like that is for irrigation lines when people have lakefront property. I’ve been plumbing since 2005 and only once have I worked on Well. That shit is cool to me.

Good video

Ohhh now I understand how to do it thanks!

Thank you I'm able to fix mine!

I honestly wish more reviews were real world like this. Thank you, thank you again about the threads needing to be 3 1/2 turns out. I just bought my first house and need to fix the previous owners best intentions.

That's when the handle comes in handy 🤦🏻‍♂️

Hi there, I have a Navien tankless water heater that was exchanged for free by a Navien crew in January 2015 - the previous Navien tankless was leaking internally like crazy and flooded my basement - - ever since it was installed, it has been at 115F setting for hot water ( i live in toronto ) -- - my question is, can i enter Commercial Mode on the heater and increase from 115F to 150F and safely run at 150F 24/7 - 365 ? i don't have small children in the house, they all got married and moved out within the last 6-7 years - - would there be any issues with the 150F setting when the hot water inlet to my LG front loading clothes washer is hooked to a hot water line from the Navien ? supposedly my LG washer can run at a maximum of 70 celsius on a cycle called "Sanitary" - - please advise, ,, thank you in advance

Oh dang you guys are local

Duct tape maybe?

I had no idea there was so much selection 🤯good info

Do I need a blader tank, like I see they have on top of the WH?

Do bypass valve go bad. How long do they last?

Thanks for the video. Good job!

Well that was about a 1 day lesson in 3mins... thanks for that

Why not repair/replace/remove that gate valve that was leaking by when you had the main off and the water drained?

I purchased two of these because of this video and installed one today. I’m keeping one on my truck at all times. Thanks for uploading this.

Hi. My 240A2 unit starts warm and then goes cold and eventually only goes warm but never gets hot again like it used to. My research indicates it’s a faulty check valve. Are these available on Amazon and can you link the right part? And is this an easy enough repair to do as a homeowner?

I enjoyed the video while taking a deuce ✌🏽. Good content 👍🏽

The first part of the cut is easy …keeping it straight and square to the bottom! That’s what separates the men from the boys

I’m itching just watching this 😬

I use plastic, rubber or wood items when I access the panel. Not sure if that is advisable or not but I like to think it's safer

Dangerous ! Without gloves...

A little sketchy using a bandsaw why not just tin snips. Does the same job plus a much lower chance of cutting your finger

Ok who screwed up the rough in

The second attempt work like a charm.
