You didn’t seal the outer box with any type of sealant or foam. Water is going to get inside the house when it rains through those cracks on the electrical box. I’ve seen it happened way too many times before! Especially on HVAC’s that don’t use sealant foam when replacing new AC units. They did all that work but destroy the house in the process without sealant or sealant foam.

I would use a uponor copper stub out on hot and cold side, sweat brass drop ear for spout, and a coated screws not a sheetrock screws. Wondering if you have enough left to cut out press cap on the toilet supply to put escutcheon and a valve, I would use a shark bite cap or a sweat cap. For those who get triggered by shark bite I won't put shark bites in the wall only for testing or a temporary fix.

Is it possible to do it without cutting the pipe. I need to replace mine, but I looks too short to cut.
@blacklabremodeling
@blacklabremodeling 3 ай бұрын
It depends. The original plan was to not cut the pipe, but unfortunately the brass ring crimped the pipe and caused some flaring so it wouldn’t come off. Have a compact pipe cutter handy just incase you need to cut it, so you can cut as close to the nut as possible.

A ground fault is not an overload.
@blacklabremodeling
@blacklabremodeling 5 ай бұрын
A ground fault is an unintentional connection between an energized conductor and a ground, which results current flow through soil, water, or another conductive material. This can occur due to improper wiring, a faulty appliance, or a surge in voltage. The ground fault will result in a slow, but sustained raise in the current which is what makes electrocution a high risk with ground faults. The GFCI outlet detects this increased current and when working properly cuts off the circuit. I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment!

@@JohnDemolition however, a surge in voltage can be caused by plugging in too many things on the circuit (overloading the circuit), putting in a piece of equipment that requires more start up amps than the circuit can handle which will also cause the GFCI outlet to trip. So while a ground fault may not specifically be an overload, they are also often tripped by overloading the circuit they are protecting.

I have found that LED replacement bulbs have wildly various lives. Probably the same for LED fixtures. It's unfortunate that there can't be LED fixtures with user replaceable bulbs, that the whole fixture needs to be replaced. I'm not sure what that means for contractors.
