You talk way to much

2:47. I’m stuck here. My white plastic piece won’t come off any I’m afraid to force it too hard. It looks similar to yours but there are 4 small black clips around it.

Hey there, question. What can you do with an old house without grounded wiring ? GFCI outlets can be used to replace 2 prong outlets. But there's still no ground. So I'm assuming you can't use typical "surge protection" power strips (or likely no type of modern day power strip of any kind) because they rely on shunting to ground. Which a non grounded homes wiring doesn't have. Also, if the house doesn't have grounded wiring. Would a whole house surge protector at the service box actually still protect the home (I'm assuming no) ? It seems like the only thing I can think of as far as protection for a non grounded home. Is something like a "Zero Surge" product. As they filter through their built in capacitors. & are filtered back through the neutral once the charge has slowed down to a safe level. At least that's what they claim to do. So in that situation I'd have to assume maybe in an ungrounded home. Your only choice outside of a complete rewire upgrade. Is a GFCI outlet with a Zero Surge power strip plugged into it (pretty expensive solution still). Or is there another way to have protection in an non grounded home. Besides a GFCI + Zero Surge combination. Or just updating the whole home with a full rewire ?

How much force do you need to push the bulb to go back in?

Thanks BJ. apparantly I have an old troll a temp (honeywell) electronic system (1 furnace), dampers with 6 little motors, and 2 stats with the upstairs stat only functions/follows off of lower level stat settings of either heat or a/c mode. these are the old honeywell dial type stats and I would like to upgrade them for easier reading for my old eyes, dont really need programmable would just use manual setting but appears I need a stat that is designed for 2H/2C system I am thinking T6 or above. I understand I will need a common for 24v at stats to power them if I did not want to swap batteries yearly, but not sure how or if I could figure the wireing for the new stats. I know where the W, G, R, Y all attach but at main t-stat there is an orange AND a black wire also that have to do with the upstairs stat so not sure where I would attach them in a T6. or two of them if I swap both stats. thanks for any input I learned what my system is from your video.

Terrific video. It works! I wonder what the plumber was going to charge my Dad for this very simple fix?

It sounds like rain coming from my window but there's no rain outside it's driving me crazy.idk what it is! And it hasn't gone away passed couple days.

Thank you. I took the red stopper off completely and yet shower stays luke warm. Sink and mother showers get hot just not this one is there something else I can try.

awesome video

No one else knew that!

You just saved my day! Thank you!

The origin of the word prestige means illusion. Might want to use another word....lol...unless of course it IS an illusion.

Thanks for the tip. I was trying to chisel down into the threads that were all rusty and use PB blaster and not making much progress. I used your method and I had it open in about five minutes. Thanks again.

Thanks for this video, now I know

Thank you! I replaced both of my shower cartridges. You are a hero among men😊

So in our tub already have it at the 12:00 position it's at the max temperature. But we're hardly getting any hot water out. The cold water is got very good pressure but the hot water has hardly any whatsoever. Is there any way to increase the pressure on the hot side?

Thank you so much for the video!!!!

Oh my gosh, I can not tell you how many hours i spent trying to connect my printer. Thank you so very much for your help. It was so easy to understand and now have a printer that is connected. Extremely helpful. God Bless YOU!!!!

Hi BJ, I am a new subscriber, and I'm glad I ran into your video. My question is, what if the dripping water sound is heard from the ceiling in my bathroom just above that square compartment (not sure of the name), and this happened after it had just rained. Would it be considered thermal expansion or possible leak in my roof? There are no physical signs of any water.

How does this work with the new, white, square Gateway? The new T Life app no longer shows the network info.

The only advice missing from this video is - ***put the plug in your shower and tub drain hole***, if you don't want to lose the hex set screw or the phillips set screw.

What if we did all that and it's still not getting hotter

Thank you very much for this video. It was extremely helpful

Thank you so much for this great information. It was very helpful.

This fun little thing caused my gas bill to be $300- $400 and electric bill to be close to $300.

Only hammer was necessary for this 😄

I heard some of the new digital thermostats like eco-bee can manually control this device, something they call "free cool", so if air is cooler outside, it uses the fresh air damper and fan instead of turning on AC compressor.

Mine was loose and flung open violently during a windy night. The top seems to have disconnected and my window won't close. Its in a third floor window to make matters worse. Trying to figure out how I might be able to DIY fix it

One tip: The white threaded collar can be difficult to remove. There is interference between the front edge of the white collar and the front edge of the actual black valve. Put a screw driver under the rear of the collar where it touches the metal hold-down ring and gently pry it. It will literally just pop off. It may resist but, I have replaced two Kohler valves exactly like this and it worked for both....without breaking the white collar.

I am in the Middle right now. Its relatively close to the window i have two high powered Fans on It to get rid of the smell as well. I think the Fans Could be really important, especially if not close to the window. I am checking about 10 minutes and it appears to be working well, smell appears to be going away everytime i check. It did set off my smoke detector twice. Hoping its not a problem with the unit. I only had it on for about 5 mins prior, since it was installed and both times it set off the smoke detector. UPDATE: The Bottom of the Heater actually has an opening as well, and all the dust had accumulated at the bottom and i was able to just use paper towels to get rid of it I think a vaccuum with good suction could be a good strategy as well. The Dust that was burning, had gotten really hard almost gum like so i guess it just burns into a solid form then flakes and thats the end of the cycle, some of it wasnt burned to a deeper state yet. I say the whole cycle should take about 2 hours max.

Thank you for this insight! It has attracted others with the same worries and I think I have finally found a direction to go in to get this addressed

Thanks so much for sharing this!!! Lifesaver

We needed this explanation. Thanks.

Great video. Got me back on line with my printer. THank you

Thank you for explaining this for us simple folks.

Do you check the little metal flapper for free movement

5:52 I am absolutely relieved after watching this video. The dripping water sound comes from my kitchen ceiling that gave me sleepless nights. Sigh of relief finally.

Hi, thank you for the video. please let me know if this spigot needs a separate from the main house water valve inside shut off valve to turn the water off for the winter?

Thanks. I have 60 year old cast iron pipe going from the house to the septic tank and the plug will not budge out of the cutout I need open. I was about to saw off the entire piece and replace it with PVC. This is a much better idea. And I didn't realize the metal was so thin.

Had a toilet bubbling during flush. No other issues with any other plumbing. My tube was off on the other side. Thank you for this helpful video.

Thank you!!

Thank you so much!!!!

What kind of bulb is this. Can't seem to get info off of it.

Just verifying no need to turn water supply off?

Great video. Recently purchased a house with a ventilation system like this. No proper instructions on how and when to use it. Like you I believe it’s better off than on except the rare occasions when weather is really mild. Instructions, if you even get some, are confusing on how to set up and insure it’s working as designed. Better to just keep it off probably.

👍👍👍👍👍

Thank you for the video. Unfortunately, it was unhelpful to me because I am NOT willing to allow T-Mobile to rape my contacts list and start sending spam to friends and family. If you know of a way to accomplish adding a printer to the network WITHOUT having to submit to their egregiously invasive data mining practices, PLEASE share it!

THANK YOU!!! I am an old lady who has been going NUTS because of two swinging doors in the place I rent. 💖💖💖💖💖

I see 4 violations ,do you see more.
