So a friend of mine is having some issues with a product he has just invested some money in. The radiators is imported from overseas and it seems to be certified for usage in Europe and China. What are the proper steps to take to not only certify the item in the U.S., But to also figure out...

Hey everyone I am a little stumped with an answer to a question someone has asked me, hoping someone on this forum could help me out. So the basis of the question is surrounded by radiator btu output at different temperature systems. For example if a radiators is producing a heat output...

I'm assuming the lack of an air vent would cause these terrible noises. Does it sound like a hammer is beating your pipes? Your most likely missing a water hammer arrestor in certain parts of your system.

Damn, I barely missed the 1000th post mark. lol I'm allergic to cats anyways, so never been a fan.

lol. Who comes up with these things?! Pretty accurate for some of us getting older by the day.

I do mine all at once as well.

Seems about right to me fellas. Thank you all once again for winning my debate in good fashion. Can't wait to prove this guy wrong. It's one of those people who think they know everything, and never admits they're wrong. Anyways one quick look at this thread and ill prove that he's full of BS...

So I have been arguing with someone for a few days now about the inability to use PEX tubing with gas lines. The other party is clearly insisting that not only is this just, but it is legal. I don't recall reading of any standards being published allowing PEX tubing to be used in these types of...

With a 25 year difference in boilers you're looking at a massive jump in efficiency. Boilers produced in the early 90's mostly had efficiency rating of 60-70%. The new boilers being produced today are mostly in the 90 percentile. You will be saving money in the long run without a doubt.

Hey everyone, I started a pretty big debate with one of my friends and we're arguing about percentage amount of U.S. households using different types of boilers such as natural gas, oil, electric, propane, and wood. Does anyone here know estimated percentages of their uses. For example I know...

It's your perception of these people that makes you believe that they don't have that money. They're simply taking advantage of any situation they can to save that money. The people who don't splurge on unnecessary BS are the ones who've learned to save a dime. My point was you can almost always...

It sound like the problem is coming from the water heater. How old is your WH unit?

Never make that mistake. Why don't you just unclog the sink in the first place instead of trying to go around it?

If everything is structured properly and there is no safety hazards I don't see why it would be a big problem. Just make sure you do it properly, it should barely be noticeable.

lol Yes, and pretty soon these robots will advance to the point of being experienced plumbers, while doing the work for free; cause face it, robots don't need money. All that will do is send every experienced plumber out of business, and meet the plots of a few big time Hollywood movies! lol
