It's just some off white sprat paint I found in the garage that's a close match to my siding. If you don't have the paint I would get some color matched. Online apps can match colors off a picture now. I would have went that route if I didn't have the stuff on hand.

Question - when you screwed the flange spacer down, did you screw it to the original flange or directly to the subfloor (or through the original flange to the subfloor)?
@HowellHomeDIY5438 күн бұрын
A mix of what your asking but screws were long enough for all to hit the subfloor. IIRC 2 holes lined up with original flange screw holes, if they didn't, I sent the screw through the original flange into the subfloor. I accounted for the thickness of both flanges and my subfloor thickness when I picked up new screws. Also recommended Stainless or galvanized screws.

@HowellHomeDIY5437 күн бұрын
Mine doesn't dim just has on/off and 3 colors you can switch through. Seems you have a different led controller setup than me. That's a common problem with some led dimmers is not going off all the way. There can be a slight current flow still which allows the leds to glow still when they are supposed to be off. Maybe reach out to the seller see what they say.

I tend to time lapse parts I find straight foward or easy, something Im working on for my install videos, sorry about that. You do need the door mostly closed or less than 90 degrees open to line it up for assembly as there are stops that limit how far it opens, give that a shot should easily snap in place when oriented correctly. It's Def a cheap piece but worked out great for my location behind the ac condensors where I use the outlet maybe once a year. I like the low profile ones in my other videos for areas I use more frequently. Near front and back doors etc.

Excellent and thank you. I just installed the round mini box, but used blue plastic - DON'T RECCOMEND THESE because 1. the romex/elect line hole extends like 1/2 inch upward causing an issue around the joist (dumb manufacturer and nearly blows the point of having a shallow box-Duh!) 2. they also put micro joist lines of plastic so you can 'line up the joist' dumb again, I had to pull/slice them off to get flush to the joist AGAIN since it is a shall space. I will not choose blue plastic on these in the future - I will use metal. But my question if you have time since we did not see the light/fan install - shouldn't the wire connections fit as much as possible into the box? vs hanging below the elec. box on top of the light/fan section?
@HowellHomeDIY543Ай бұрын
No problem. As far as I know the blue plastic "pancake" boxes are new work boxes, intended for new construction. Where as this metal version I used is labeled as old/new work so can be used in new construction or retrofit/remodel. I always look for the term "old work" when needing electrical stuff for remodeling existing stuff. I usually leave as much romex wire and the wire nuts in the box as I can as it's solid core wire and less flexible. But yes most fixtures include a cavity or mount with cover that offers plenty of room to house the wiring as well. In my case the fan/chandelier I installed also includes a remote controller housed in the fixture upper with plenty of room for the wiring. Even the flush mount led light I installed in my bathroom the other day had a cavity to house the wires and wire nut connections, vice having to shove them up in the box so you have options.

It's ment to be "floating" according to the directions so not fastened down by any means to the sub floor. The weight and locking in nature gives it its strength to resist movement from foot traffic but allows movement of the building/floor to prevent gaps buckling etc. So not sure how it would fair being taped directly to the floor.

Don't use it on drywall mud patch. Learned it the hard way. It'll cause your top coat to flash even more than the drywall mud. Since it's oil base, your top coat latex paint will stay wet on your spray spot much longer than the rest of your wall, which will result in more flashing.

because it's oil based will it be shiny? i have matt white painted walls and water stains so i just wanted a quick cover up. would this blend in? thank you!
@HowellHomeDIY5433 ай бұрын
Common misconception. Just because a paint is oil based, it's not automatically shiny. You can get them in matt or flat up to full gloss. You are, however, able to obtain a smoother high gloss finish with oil based over water based in general. If I had to classify kilz primer sheen, I would say it's a step under satin almost a flat. I used satin white on my window trim, and it has more sheen than kilz spray primer. On a side note, don't expect it to blend. White is impossible to blend old with new. Even if it's the same sheen and color, the new white paint or primer will stand out compared to the old. Any white paint will lose sheen and take on a new hue over time. Just the name of the game with whites, my dad has been a painting contractor for over 30 years, so I've seen it many times.

You can always use the kilz primer as it will need done for the water stains regardless and then evaluate from there. Maybe you can live with it or it's less noticeable in your room based on ceiling height/texture room lighting, etc. But for me, I would notice it and go ahead and plan on rolling some flat white ceiling paint afterward at some point. No problem, thanks for checking about my channel! 😀

I did not. My city does not require the homeowner to obtain a permit to replace existing electrical receptacles etc. They do require it for adding or moving electrical, ie. new wiring. Check your city's .gov page for where you live if you want to see what's required in your area. Sounds like to me you were correcting an issue in an existing location and bringing it up to code, as no box for a lightning fixture would fail any new construction nec code.
