Great product and great review. I put one of these in for my elderly folks a while back and my old man was upset with the size of the unit because it covers both outlets when it’s plugged in. He even asked why the manufacturer wouldn’t have thought to offset the male adapter so he could still have access to the unused wall plug. I debated on whether to give him the customer service phone number or just let him figure it out for himself. Another great video man! Take care!

Just had a new septic tank and drain field installed, after two weeks we're having back ups with very little use. We noticed that when looking at the clean outs there's standing water sitting on the pipes with no use and on the tank end where it drains to drain field, there's very little flow and about half an inch of water on the discharge pipe, at times the flow looks like it reverses back to the tank. I'm thinking there's a dip on the from the line to the house but I can figure out why there's such little flow in to big 500sqft drain field with very little use. Thank you

We are on the 2012 building code and I’ve been wondering if I can hire someone else to work out this revisions or pay for advice if someone could look at what they’re asking for. Thanks

@PPG1967 not by any manufacturers instructions they freeze up in condensing section drainage in cold months. I've testified 3 times on lawsuits in regards to damagae from that issue and both were settled by time case went to civil court. You may wanna review since manufacturers instructions trump ICC codes if not published. Better do some research. I'm also GA Lic as EN CN and have every ICC inspector related certs here in GA.

@PPG1967 I guess if it was a dump zone but all the ones I've torn out due to 20k in damage below due to freeze up and then fact safety drain pan had pvc outlet sneakily run 3 fr away into insulation. We're talking 2 - and 3 yr old homes built by some big builder using unlicensed and illegal hvac installers. I guess a legit heat tape run and operated by low temps would also work but come on now, I fail hvac inspections just on missing vent after the missing trap and no clean out union as well as uphill runs of pvc in attics. You'll never get a correct heat tape install by them. Stay safe and rock on man. You do some big homes full of hidden work, I'm sure. AtlMike

Okay, so Simpson provides something that gets past your inspection. But you never said why you don't want to lift up the wall underneath. You never explained why you would even need to secure the truss to the wall underneath it. This is our American version of corruption. Simpson makes a lot of money from specially formed pieces of sheet metal and there doesn't seem like there is any competition against them.

I have a vertical system in a closet and under the air filter slot is the 2 copper pipes, a plastic pipe, more solid metal, and some wiring. Above the air filter slot is the Honeywell brand, the writing "system" next to some light that's off, and some kind of switch. It's also flimsier metal, kinda like a duct. To the right there's a test button that doesn't seem to work. Will the furnace be under the slot or above?

Well if you have existing 3 inch with a 40 cfm old fan, and cannot get in to replace it due to flooring or drywall, then left with reducing it a bit and living with the reduced air flow. Better than the old fan for sure. Many vids on here using reducers for old work for sure.

Almost every job I go on I see a 2-inch pipe or even a 1 1/2 pipe going through a load bearing 2 by 4 but max bored hole is 40% nothing more than 1.4'' or 2.1'' for non-load bearing how does this pass, but also how are we as plumbers supposed to run our pipes through studs and not break that rule? this always puzzled me. When you do your rough plumbing hydrostatic test do you want to see the tubs filled up with the rough plumbing or have them plugged separately? Thanks for sharing!

Hey quick question: It is a code violation if the attic ladder is facing the wrong way or opposite way. Meaning once you climb up the ladder you have to make a 180 degree turn to service the furnace. VS have it the “correct” way so once you climb up the ladder the system is immediately within view. I have an issue with this due to lack of clearance for the actual ladder feet so it had to be installed “backwards “
