    In general a well done installation unfortunately you missed the most important safety requirement by not installing the Romex pinch connector needed to secure the wire and protect it from the sharp metal edges of the hole you passed the wire through. The connector is cheap and needs to be used.

    Thank you so much for the great video. I have 2 ugly builder grade fixtures in the front bathroom of the house I bought 3 years ago. I immediately bought new fixtures, but there are no boxes in the wall holding up the fixtures that are there, and no studs to attach a box to. I have not know what to do and didn't know this type of box existed. I just subscribed, as I watched your first video on taking the fluorescent fixture down (my son has this in his kitchen). I then liked that video and looked to find this video to finish the project. I am so glad I did. Now I am able to get rid of those ugly fixtures in my bathroom as well as help him get rid of his ugly kitchen light. Thank you so much.🙂

      Yes, it was fine with no water problem for over 3 years, but a few weeks ago the fridge started making a weird, loud whirring sound. It sounded like it was coming from the back. The refrigerator and freezer still worked fine but I had new tenants moving in to that house, so I just put in a new fridge for them.

    Thank you for this video. Our large lower drawer would not open properly and when looking behind and under we found a puddle and layer of ice. With your video and one other we first pulled out the drain tube in the bottom back and found it to be plugged. Once it was removed there was a drip of water seen coming out of the drain so perhaps that is solved. We will keep an eye on it and if it should build up water again we will pull the inside back and replace the parts that you do in this video. $8 for the two parts on Amazon so we ordered to have on hand. I find it very interesting how this all works. Also while in the drain area we cleaned the fins and cleaned as much of the gunk out of the drain basin as possible. One way is to take a paper towel, fold in half and slide it in to the water and "wick" it out. Another way is to use a wet dry vac and one of those crazy multi tube things. On Amazon the are called "Attachment Tiny Tubes" you can divide the tubes and stick a few into the basin. Cover the remaining tubes with your hand to improve the suction. We we able to remove most of the water and yuckie stuff. Our Samsung is 12 years old.

    • @KYKCreations
      @KYKCreations Před měsícem

      Whether your hemorrhoid can heal on its own depends on how large the prolapse is (the part that is coming out) and whether it stays inside when you insert it back in. If the prolapse is small and will stay in when you put it back inside your anus, it might be cured with some lifestyle changes or maybe with a banding procedure. If it is very large, you will need to get surgery.
