Re: Intertherm mgh-055-abwl-06 flame flutters

I have a couple of buddies that are techs. They said a crack is possible but doubtful because its not putting out any co's. The thing flutters even before the fan comes on.

Intertherm mgh-055-abwl-06 flame flutters

RE: connecting old poly to pex

I've got 4 sharkbites in my house and 1 under ground. They work great, been there for a good while, no problems. Just give the internal o-ring a shot of WD-40 to prevent damaging it. Thats the only problem I ever had with them.

The Home Depot and Lowes here in Ga have a MH section. I got stainless drains with the giant nuts there for mine, I dont like the cheapo plastic ones.

RE: Wobbling Ceiling Fan

Also make sure the fan blades arent bent, all it takes is 1 a little out of whack to make it wobble like crazy.

RE: flooring choices

RE: Shark Bites work on Gray Pipes!!!!!

yes they will work fine and stay there if done right. I cut the pipe, clean and sand any burrs off it, then a tad of wd-40 on the o-rings to prevent them from breaking and snap it together. I have 5 inside, and last summer a root broke the main line to the home and I dug it up and fixed it the same ...

RE: Advice for not a do-it-yerselfer?

I agree, D-con makes some green poison blocks they eat, then drink and it kills them and dries them up so the dont stink. Had a mouse chew a water line and flooded my kitchen. So as i ripped out all the mushy sub flooring I dropped a block about every 8 feet throughout the kitchen floor insulation a...
