    I work in Weatherford and those cast iron meter can always destroy those husky keys because theyre made of aluminum and bend so easily. I always recommend the bronze key to get in and shut it off

    @rodgerwakefield I know there’s not many boilers in Texas but can you do some boiler videos? Annual t+p changing? I don’t think so…. Hose bib is called a silcock your forgetting a few too, zone valve, water feeder (eg 911s), air scrubber, hy vent, ect.

    Hey sir, I am currently renovating a house I inherited built in the 60’s. I had to run a new waterline to a new well/pump. I am inside the house with PVC, and I’m going to convert to PEX-A. There are 2 brands available locally, Sharkbite and Apollo. What are your thoughts on these brands, or should I just go ahead and order Uponor?

    Just got done using some valves. Flushed out my water heater. It was due. Roger, My house was built in 1980, and so far we have changed most of the valves to ball. I had globe valves and gate valves before. We just did full port ball valves on my outside silcocks. Now the pressure is crazy. My question for you is i have a swing check on the city water (my side) of the meter. It's clanging and banging. That means it's bad, right?

    You're supposed to change T&P valves annually? I've never heard that before or seen anyone do that level of water heater maintenance.

    What is the distinction between pressure and flow?

    • @kenbrown2808
      @kenbrown2808 Před rokem

      pressure is how hard it is to stop the water, flow is how much comes out.

      Where I work we have at least three of these types of valve spigots that when you try to use them water erupts out around the face of the spigot and out of the spigot proper. We simply stopped using them because the risk of water being left in the valve and freezing come winter is just too high.

    • @davidt892
      @davidt892 Před rokem +1

      ​@@Hybris51129 Yeah that's why i don't think they should make the regular "Frost-free" hose bibs. They make a better design that drains the water even if the hose is attached, when the hose bib is shutoff. Although that doesn't stop someone from leaving the hose bib on with a closed valve or sprayer on the hose.

      You could try a rebuild kit, sold typically by brand and length..

      I didn't even think about plug valves. I was like what about butterfly or needle valves.

      @@RogerWakefield Your video seems more directed at the home owner, so it makes sense not to include butterfly valves. I was expecting a complete list, but you at least covered the common valves.
