[@sd04dave1]

Always a fan of problem solving even when it's not the most efficient wat to get something up and running. Glad to hear you're doing better tho! As always, thank you for all that you do!

RTV the sucker! Ahhh, the old two-pass heat exchanger! Nice modification Handy.

i had an intex inflatable hot tub for 6 and a half years until it finally b it the dust... i had rebuilt the pump 4 times to keep it going and replaced the hose once. After it died i got a real hot tub and the difference was night and day. i loved the intex one until i had a Sundance then the difference was just like WOW. i too have back pain and also the hot tub helps with stress and ptsd

That heater is to keep livestock water tanks from freezing . And masons use them as well.

Great video! I love being able to fix stuff like this. 💪

[@RCTVAccount]

I am totally with you, problem solving is something more people need to do in our disposal society. Fix it if you can. Thanks

I pinched the sciatic nerve on the left side about 20 years ago. Sitting was the worst; I'd be in the truck on my way to and from jobs, weeping like a baby. Nice repair, definitely worth the effort.

Nice exercise of the brain Handydude. Nice fix.

[@icebond7102]

Very good job. What brand is that red knife you used? I want one.

🎵"You gotta know when to hold em, know when to fold em" 🤣 Nice job Handy, did it ever stop leaking? Im wondering why you didn't put the heating part back on after you figured it wasn't the leak. PS- that heating element looks like a fancy stock tank heater

[@2MuchHandyman]

The original heating element was the first leak. The 2nd leak was just from the check valve not holding. Once I filled it up it didn't leak anymore. Its been holding for over a month now.

@@2MuchHandyman ohh awesome, nice 👍 cool ingenuity on the block off plate. Whats goin on with the Vizio TV? 🤔

[@2MuchHandyman]

It's an old tv. I'm thinking of using it in the workshop

[@JonnyDIY]

@@2MuchHandyman nice, that'd be cool for livestreams

[@MichaelT8710]

I use 1 for my small turtle pond. Would it work for heating up paint.

[@iiaandre]

How long ago were the cortisone shots and how are they helping with pain and mobility? I have all the same ailments you mentioned and I'm finding the pain and lack of sleep have been getting out of control.

[@2MuchHandyman]

2 years ago.

[@MyDIYBuilds]

I’ve had my eye on one of those cheap tubs for years…think they’re worth it?

[@2MuchHandyman]

Yes. I think if I used bromine instead of chlorine the heating element would have lasted longer.

[@BamaBreeze]

One of your finest redneck Rivera engineering jobs Handy, HandyOn! Love the PVC meltdown.

[@KableGuyCGY]

@@2MuchHandyman My bromine tub heater lasted almost 15 years, in Canadian climate, with that bitch running every damn day. So you might be right Handy.

[@semperfi5861]

🇺🇸🤘 Heck Yeah Handy Dandy 🤘🇺🇸

[@davidrush8283]

I would jb weld the parts on

[@brybino]

No footage of you testing the diaphragm check valves? 😂

[@2MuchHandyman]

You would like to see that wouldn't you. LOL.

[@GimpGladly]

"bucket heater" sure dude, whatever makes you sleep at night.

[@ForgetU]

I bought mine at Sam's ($400).
