very helpful

Hi Ken, What can you use in a household that cannot have bleach due to asthma?

Thanks Ken!

Why is it dark can't see well

This is very helpful! What is the capacity of this cooling system, i.e. 300-tons? What is the annual cost of the antiscalants, biocides and other water treatments; and how much water is lost through blowdown and evaporation, or amount in new water added each month?

I used the water based stuff because at my location I can't get the solvent based (rural Alaska, $$$ hazaed shipping etc). My advice: don't go straight to your project but have some scrap pieces and PRACTiCe first. This can work very well but is really touchy. What I found: if you wait till it's "tacky", as in still sticky but no longer wet, it is too late. It won't stick. This is what it says to do on the can, but it is misleading. I guess "tacky" needs to be better defined. This is water based, so there has to still be some water in it to bond. The best time is when it is no longer runny, but still moist enough to leave a fingerprint and a bit of residue on your fingertips. Then it will stick nicely. Apply several layers (I used 3 layers on plywood, two on the formica, in short succession while still wet), use lots of pressure, weigh it down for about a day until it is bonded and make sure to pay attention to the temperature (above 65 F). When I did all this while applying formica to plywood for my countertop, it worked very well.

very informative video

Thank you . Very honest and clear.

do one for the chiller if you can. annual pm.

Thanks. This was the one that I was looking for! Great help.

I had a small spring on rotor weights/switch that flew off preventing spin-up. Hum no run symptom.

Exactly like my Kenmore model, but buttons are back stupid top loader style.

wouldn't you want 6 inch horizontal spacing as well to keep that 1/4 spacing between the mesh and wall?

I have True GDM 12 not cooling. Compresor kicks and all fans run but no cooling. Any help I would apprreciate.

thank you.

That's why you don't buy a water heater from the box stores because all have plastic drain valves. If you do buy one replace the plastic drain valve with a brass one before you install water heater. Also it's a very bad idea to use that galvanized nipple because it will corrode inside , trust me I been a licensed master plumber for 29 years I seen it all in my years, never ever use galvanized on any water lines . Contractor grade water heaters come with a brass drain valve, Do you think the manufacturer would use brass drain valves if they would cause any type of issue ? Of course not. I don't see a drip leg on the gas line what a hot mess. You didn't install a check valve either for that recirculation pump. Looks like a 4 year old installed that water heater. I would have just replaced the entire water heater and installed it the right way. I know in California you have to use flexible water lines and brace water heater due to the earthquakes. But it could have been done neater. In my area if you do any work on a customers water heater and there are any things not up to code you have to fix it correctly, if the customer doesn't want you to fix it then you tell them they need to hire someone else to do the work because the plumbee can loose his or her license if they work on a water heater and see things out of code and don't correct it

What a mess. Very messy work. Looks like a 4 year old ran all those lines, not near at all. This has to be a DIY. Because if this is a plumber lord help us all.

WHO says talc probably carcinogenic, which is why baby powder no longer contains it. Cornstarch could attract insects.

That little bit of leftover light does have the potential to drive one nutty!

You are a genius! I have watched 4 videos and was dreading this. The dremel works like a charm and you are the first one to do that I've seen

Why did you go up in size on your heating to a 40,000 BTU unit.

Did you find any issues long term on having some sand on top of the paver base?

Droping a thank you for the tips that made a smooth replacement. She's up and running again!

Really nice how to video Ken bravo.

Curious how long this ended up working for you?

Why didn't you just cut the pipe outside and add an elbow so that you could have a straight shot to the pipe?

We do have bug screens cause we don't live in the ghetto! That was funny. My bugscreenless windows know it's true

I have an AO Smith water heater from 2015 and I am unable to remove the anode rod. I have tried breaker bars, and 1/2”impact wrench and I can’t seem to break it loose. I am not going to purchase another AO Smith. They apparently have 2 classes of heater and I must have gotten mine through the big box cheaper variety. Oh well. Any advice before I throw the water heater out and put a new one in? Thanks for any advice you have for this DiY homeowner.

Can you post an update on how long this lasted for?

A god amongst men. Thank you.

How does super seal keep from clogging the orifice?

Thank you so much for all of the details. A great plumbing lesson!

What Happened To The Blue Painters Tape ?

Also, is the resolution on your field piece meter auto ranging? For the secondary coil it read 1.250 ohms which you said was 1250 ohms. Is this correct?

Why did you change the whole gas valve then if just the coils were questionable?

Very helpful, Ken. Thank you

OMG over engineering at it's finest. 😂

How do you check for the leak on old GE dryer that smell gas when not in use , when I open the dryer door. Thank you if you can make a videos

This was super thorough and helpful. Even little things like ensuring that the new valve stems were snug before placing them into the shower. Wouldn’t have thought of that and just put them in. Superb instruction…You’ve got a new sub.

Hey man, thank u for the demonstration...my refrigerator recently have this issue, compressor no run just humming, and I have omhs out everything part and is showing good numbers ....my compressor is machanally ceased but I will try the hammer and try to get a hard start kit and see if it runs .

Here in the Netherlands the gas rated Teflon tape is white in a red container. So don't go for colour just read the package and make sure it says it's suited for gas

Same issue in a closet. I bought this product bc i heard great reviews from ppl who refurbished Mobile homes in Florida. If this stuff would work for those types of jobs it might work for me. Im curious if this product works like it says it does.

I used this same product when painting the Sears Tower in Chicago. Still holding up well!

17:34 Troweling downward causes the squeegeed material to fall on the ground =waste. Troweling upward catches/pushes the material ahead of the trowel for a more complete application. 20:09 FINALLY!

I didn't realize it was so simple I would have done it sooner my car's got about 300,000 mi on it!, just breaking it in!

Curious, since the video is so old, did you ever run into any problems since removing the watt limiter?

I can produce it by titanium

Found this video. Need help with unit
