thank you!

[@blankname6629]

The sediment one I have heard licensed plumbers say not to do that because the chances of you screwing something up and creating a dangerous situation is higher than a dangerous situation created by not flushing it

[@AteThisYesterday]

@@blankname6629 of course they do, that's their business.

[@blankname6629]

@@AteThisYesterday they tell you not to flush it and to not even service it.

[@AteThisYesterday]

@@blankname6629 we just had ours replaced and were told by the installers to flush it yearly. We do have old, crusty pipes, though, so that may have been some of the reason. I can see how someone without the right knowledge could create a mess, blow it up, or get jolted, though.

[@NicoSmets]

An extra one: each year move any valve in the house a few times open and shut. When they need to be open (main water for example), turn valve fully open and then for example a turn back. This should keep all your valves in good condition for many years to come.

[@xnavynuc]

Many, if not most, globe-style shutoff valves have both closed seats and open seats. The purpose of the closed seat is obvious: to keep water from flowing when the valve is shut. But the open seat is important too; it keeps water from leaking out around the stem if the packing gland (gasket/seal) is bad or not tight. The problem is, the open seat doesn’t do any good if the valve isn’t fully opened into the seat. So although it’s a good idea to exercise your shutoff valves, you should always leave them either in the fully opened or fully closed positions. BTW, some valves are better off left alone, like PVC ball valves, which can start leaking if operated unnecessarily.

[@KCJbomberFTW]

🤣

[@terrapinflyer273]

Oh thanks for that! Something so simple... Don't know why I had never thought of doing that. We have a few that need replacing :P

[@SJmystic]

So important! Just had a plumber out to replace the valve on the line to my toilet that had gotten too stuck for me to move. I only discovered it because I was going to replace toilet "innards" and couldn't close the valve to do it. Had I followed this tip I bet the valve wouldn't have become stuck . . . 😕

[@catdaddydonbrewer007]

That’s a great way to bust your water line. If you get any air in your water line when you shut it off then crank it wide open your gonna bust a line if you don’t have the cold water on your sinks or bath on

[@ericak1949]

My husband's cooking tests our downstairs smoke detectors weekly. 😆

[@justinreedflynn]

As a homeowner, these are invaluable tips saving me from costly repairs. Thank you sir!

[@williamgates4399]

FYI, before draining the hotwater tank, turn off the cold-water fill valve and put regulator on pilot. Then open a hot water faucet in the house to relieve pressure.

[@johnnyb362]

Also, if your water heater is electric first turn off the breaker. The elements are designed to only run when submerged in water and if they run while the tank is drained they can fail or worse start a fire.

[@SJmystic]

Thanks for this info! Just what I wondered about when learning about that tip!

[@mwoods8988]

I do *not* turn off the incoming cold-water fill valve! I simply connect a garden hose to the drain valve and open the drain valve. After a few minutes, I stop when it's fairly sediment-free. I use a bucket to occasionally check the draining sediment.

[@williamgates4399]

@@mwoods8988, I understand the concept. With cold water fill valve open, then the pressure is in the hot water tank and it may well help the flow through the garden hose. I totally get that, but it is what it is.

[@kamX-rz4uy]

@@mwoods8988 Alternately, if I tank has not been touched in a long time you can turn the incoming water off, drain, then (slowly) turn the water back on. Any sediment that didn't come out will get stirred up. Then continue your way.

[@timlecount8690]

#3: also make sure you turn off power if it’s an electric water heater so you don’t burn up your elements. Great advice on these thank you!

[@petemurray2062]

IMPORTANT: Smoke and CO detectors....You should replace batteries as suggested, but the detectors have a life expectancy. CO: 6yrs Smoke: 10 yrs. We inspected 80 houses in our community. 90% had expired detectors but kept on replacing the batteries. You can replace the batteries until the cows come home but the chemical to detect CO/Smoke no longer works after its life has expired. Get the lithium 10 year battery with your new smoke detector unless you want to climb a ladder and change them every year.

[@SpecificLove7]

Thanks for the great advice!

[@terrapinflyer273]

You all need ladders to change your smoke detectors?? Jeez. What sort of peasantry my life consists of lol

[@GwyndolinOwO]

@@terrapinflyer273 I live in an apartment so i don't need to change mine on my own, but the ceilings in this place are TALL. I'm not sure I could reach even with a stool, lmao. In my old place i probably wouldn't need a ladder though, the ceilings and walls were a lot shorter

[@nicolemarieh83]

@@terrapinflyer273 my ceilings are only 7', but I'm only 5' soo... yeah, i do ;) what kind of beautiful tallness must your life consist of? ;)

[@kamX-rz4uy]

@Hardware John I don't like the ones with sealed batteries because they don't always last the full 10 years. I've had to replace a number of lithium batteries long before their supposed end date (and I don't buy off brand batteries). Same problem with LED fixtures they are selling now without replaceable bulbs.

[@SpeakerBuilder]

For defrosting a freezer, I found if I leave the freezer door open with the frig off for an hour or so, the ice buildup becomes warm enough that I can break it off in pieces and put those in the sink or throw them outside.

[@bigwilito]

You should give a roundabout timeline for the items listed vs. just saying a regular basis all the time. Some people may think to check their faucet filter every week when you really don't have to. Either way, great video!

[@RossPotts]

#12 fireplace: don’t forget the cement top. You let that go, and eventually the whole chimney will be destroyed. #13 faucet aerator. Lay a cloth over the drain before removing the aerator. That little thing will fit perfectly right down the hole.

[@SpecificLove7]

Those are a couple great points, thank you

[@ithacacomments4811]

We have an organization in my city that will contract with older adults to do maintenance on their homes so that they can remain in their homes as long as possible. Event the simple routine tasks can become overwhelming for seniors.

That is such a a great program your town has!

[@harm864]

Great video...My wife & I started playing a drinking game everytime you said "on a regular basis" & we got wasted...😁Seriously though, thanks for the tips!

[@SpecificLove7]

I do have a tendency to repeat things a few too many times 😁

[@titomendoza8071]

Lmaoooooo

[@michaelcullen9216]

I can attest to the bathroom fan being a fire hazard. Mine actually did catch fire and my house was a total loss. I rebuilt and am back in my home now but I was displaced for 8 months during the rebuild / remodel. Not a fun time in my life

[@xnavynuc]

There was a fire in our apartment complex many years ago caused by the dryer vent duct and bathroom vent duct being tied together (a code violation, but it was built like this). Dryer lint collected in the bathroom vent fan and it ultimately caught fire just like in your case.

[@bfullsyou]

Maybe put a timer on it.

[@terrapinflyer273]

Yeahh those things get NASTY. Try to clean ours thoroughly every few months. And yell at my roommate for leaving it running when he leaves the house...

[@corysmith4811]

These are easy to clean- first turn off the breaker (have a light source to clip onto your ladder), remove the grill (ours pulls down with two tension wire clips- pinch together and they can be removed altogether for the cleaning process. The particles will be stuck the housing, the fan blades and will fall off in chunks. Try to vacuum the particle coating with your shop vac which will be used to clean the floor at the end. This will take 15-20 minutes, even up to a half hour. I have a friend who has replaced the fan rather than clean it. Removal and replacement is about $50 or more depending on the unit and takes about the same amount of time.

[@simd510]

why do those bathroom fans catch fire?

[@transgreaser]

Ooooo love the pillow case trick! Cleaning fan blades drives me crazy! 🤣

[@wellsnapyeah]

Those are some solid golden nuggets

[@kivaunreads4091]

Me: *doesn't own a house* Also me: *writing notes furiously*

[@jonkirkwood469]

I appreciate the pillowcase-on-the-fan-blade tip; it's a keeper. Thanks for the dryer vent reminder, too. It's an out-of-sight, out-of-mind appliance. Of course, I could just create a PM schedule. For gas-powered equipment, I add StaBil to the containers each fill, so I don't have to keep track of fuel age. I use some pieces of equipment frequently, others may sit for months.

[@SpeakerBuilder]

I installed a timer switch on my bathroom fan, not only to keep the fan from burning out, but also to save on wasted electricity if I forget to turn it off, which for me was every time I turned it on. The timer switches are readily available at the big box building supply houses, and mine has options for the length of time the timer runs before shutting off.

[@SpecificLove7]

That is a great idea, thank you for the suggestion

[@LeMatt87n]

Great idea. A humidistat switch will save even more electricity

[@PS-zw4yc]

Mine kicks on too much at times. Timers are where it’s at

[@steprockmedia]

Dryer lint is SO flammable that I collect it and use it as a fire-starter for the fireplace or outdoor fire pit.

[@Mr_I_Eat_Your_Doritos]

This information in this video is gold. It surprises me how few people realize all these upkeeps they have to do on their home

[@IheartMayMay]

Thanks for this video!!! You are very kind and not judgmental. It just popped up and I was like OMG I needed this!!! 😊

[@elBusDriverKC]

Love the list. I can honestly say all 20 of these items are on my radar. Of course I'm guilty of letting things go too long, but I am getting better. Notes: drones are great for roof inspections! I recently had my roof replaced and took a lot of drone footage before, during, and after. Notes ideas for future lists - gas dryers are just as if not more dangerous as far as lint goes, but gas dryers also need service to the burners and sensors. The same thing goes for a gas stove. That being said, gas burner service isn't for every home owner.

[@SomethingAbstract]

Good video! The window weep holes were a surprise to me I've never seen them before, And the dryer tip is very important but to add on to it I would suggest taking the front or side panel off your dryer every couple years cuz the dryer we have lets a lot of lent past the filter and it gets stuck in the blower fan and makes awful banging sounds.

[@GlennC789]

Pretty good video. I just replaced our dryer vent and it was full of birds' nests and lint, pretty much completely blocked. I'll keep some of these in mind, and as usual for me, forget everything else. Thanks.

[@cman215]

Another item that probably could go on this list would be to turn off and back on any valves you have for water in your house. This includes valves to the water heater, valves to toilets and faucets, valves to the washing machine etc. Helps keep them from getting seized open due to corrosion

[@SJmystic]

So important and something I never thought about. Just got a plumber to replace a valve that I couldn't close (to turn off water to toilet in order to replace "innards"). Bet that wouldn't have happened if I knew about this tip!

[@amberpasta9379]

I feel like this is stuff they should actually be teaching us in schools not all the weird stuff they shove into our minds we don’t end up needing

[@skylar6818]

I think it's deliberate that they want us to not learn anything that applies to real-life

[@davidgraham7279]

GREAT video!!! I would add: Hot water tank: replace the anode rod every 3-5 years. Lawn tractor: either remove the battery and place on a trickle charge, or instal a charging pigtail to the battery and just plug it in. HVAC filter: write the date on the new filter. Easier to keep track of. Also, on the hot water heater, water filter, add a shipping tag to record the dates changed. They are a 3X5 tag with a wire that can be attached to these appliances to keep a record of maintenance i.e. changed the anode rod, flushed the tank, or changed the water filter.

[@bigphilnyc]

Some great tips here. Thank you!

[@MontysHall]

So nice to see more and more videos about home maintenance. 👍

[@bennetfox]

Dryer lint is extremely flammable and the lint trap should be cleaned after every use! I would also suggest to take that 90° bend out of your dryer hose.

[@grungemunkey]

Don't use that tinfoil dryer vent they are very dangerous

[@bmbullman]

@@grungemunkey What would you use instead?

[@GeorgeZorin69420]

I would also suggest removing the 180° turn in your dryer venting. Not only does it help collect lint but it also adds 20 ft of air flow this is making your dryer work harder and more moist. It's also good to check the air makeup in your laundry room to make sure there's enough air coming into the room when the dryer is on. As for the aluminum venting, I much prefer to use it over the cheap plastic kind as long as it's a good brand. The cheaper the venting, the more chance for disintegration. Great video btw

[@keithbrisbane7775]

@Aspen82 I used straight sided aluminum venting, it came in sheets with one end crimped. I rolled it to the shape of the vent and taped it with foil tape. Super easy to remove and blow or brush out. The benefit is that there aren't and wrinkles or pinches for damp dust to get stuck.

[@LtDan-hr1pb]

[@Thatdavemarsh]

Great pillowcase idea.

[@TheLovelyMissBeans]

Very good list! We can all use a reminder once in a while! Can I add that you should also clean your dryer lint trap once a month? Most people don't realize that it develops a film in it from fabric softener and dryer sheets that will make it harder for it to trap lint and debris. Scrub it with a dish brush and some regular dish soap and rinse it clean once a month. Also, clean out the filter above your stove too!

[@SpecificLove7]

Definitely thank you for the additional tips

#9: Having a professional small engine mechanic next door has been one heck of a learning experience as well allowing me to save money and time. While the fuel stabilizer dose work to a certain degree, your mower, generator or any other 4 or 2 stroke engine tools, are better stored with a synthetic fuel. (Available at your home box stores or your local hardware store in quart or one-gallon containers, 2 and 4 stroke blends.) Most states regulate automotive gasoline to contain ethanol up to 10% or greater. This is very bad news for combustion engines. The ethanol will weaken or dissolve hose lines and carburetor components. The shelf life of synthetic fuel is about one year according to the manufacturer for an opened can. I have had great results with my stored snowblower for two years with the fuel. Also change the oil of your mower every year.

[@johnjacob688]

A good thing to also do is shut off the fuel and run the machine till it dies. That way there's no gas sitting in the carb or the lines.

[@william-fla-321]

I just purchase ethanol free fuel and use a fuel stabilizer in all engines except my car. I also do what John does, by draining the fuel and run until it shuts off.

[@paladain55]

correct way to do it is empty or disconnect the tank and run it out of gas until it dies. - guy with probably 20 carburetors at this moment.

[@doubleitp]

@@paladain55 Agreed, have done this to my riding mower for over 15 years, worked flawlessly every spring start up.

[@holocaust_2.0]

Ceiling fans just aren't worth it to me. I use standing floor fans, and those things get so disgusting inside in the course of just a year.

I have your *exact* fridge! Almost 30 years and still going strong. I knoww those coils well lol :-). If you're curious about the yellowing ice dispenser insert (tho yours isn't nearly as bad as most I see) - it's caused by the always-on heating strips tucked behind it. I just cut the wires when I replaced the insert and it's still bright white (at least 10 years now). Apparently they're there to stop condensation (and thus mold) on the ice chute, which I can easily get by without. I just stuffed a towel in it to keep the cold air out. Great video.

[@michaelmcelrath1163]

That 270 degree bend in your dryer vent is a fire hazard, too! You should straighten it out as much as you can. In fact, your path to the vent hole is so short you should consider replacing the flexible dryer hose with a nonflexible one.

Love your channel I’m very particular about what channels I subscribe to but yours is extremely helpful but you did say one thing in this video that is not true that you want to put stable in your gas powered equipment that sits for a while you do NOT!!! You want more to drain the gas out of it if you let the gas sit for a while, it will attract moisture, and that intern clogs your carburetor eventually. And I should also add that you inspired me to make my garage walls the way I did they are 100% French cleats.
