my insulation sucks and it stays 75 all the time. Water heater is apparently about to fail, the heat pump style has a schedule feature built into the app. Supposedly over $300 a year cheaper to run
I did a water heater install myself last year. Wasnt too bad and got the unit for $650 or so from Lowes.
They’re easy Aren’t they Dom? I did a new one last year, best part, free. One of my distributors had one that had a dent on the back, couldn’t sell it, so they gave it to me.
Thats awesome!
Mine goes in a cabinet in our mud room at the back of the house, so was kind of a pain in the ass to get in there since i went a size bigger on the heater. That and getting my copper emergency discharge sweated properly so it wouldnt leak were the two biggest items.
Other than that, pretty damn easy.
Mine is in the garage. I just directed the relief to the floor. All CPVC. Overhead plumbing is all Pex.
Damn phone. lol
the heat pump ones are around 1200 for a 40 gallon but there’s also 800 in rebates. Trying to find out what all I need to get the rebates, might need to find a plumber ok with signing off on some papers. They claim $100 a year in electricity vs $400+ for my current one. Setting the timer app on it should drop that even more
Mine runs off natural gas. Cheap as hell.
Electric powered water heater sounds expensive lol.

They suck ass too. Mines brand new and as slow as can be. I didn't even expected them to put an electric one in, but it's in the crawl space.
It's low on energy efficiency and just my wife and I can run it out of hot water if we each shower. I used to have a suntherm unit in my old condo that was both heat for the unit and hot water. Even at the very end of it's life you couldn't run it out of heat, 4 people could shower in a row and you'd still have plenty left.
I also like to overdo it.
Asphalt in a place where I park my daily driver everyday will eventually sink. Will take many years until it does so, but it will.
There is only benifits to concrete, apart from it's price.
Nice RV parking space!
Bill was $88 and change. 20 seers matter. $40 less than last month with the old system, and keeping the house 1 degree cooler.
Last in the saga. Nothing to do with the driveway, but just a overall of a house upgrade. New shutters were installed today. Electric will be done tomorrow. 14 according and 3 electric roll downs. So happy I don’t have to hang wood on my windows anymore. All the wood will be in the dump tomorrow.
very nice! Just started looking at stuff like this myself. The accordion ones look better than I was expecting
I agree, wasn’t sure at first. Not cheap, but nice Jerry. This company makes them in house.
my uncle has a machine shop and account won eastern metal, they’re supposed to send a rep out to talk to us. Trying to get a bulk deal doing 6 houses
Electric roll downs are wired, cool as ****.
That's a nice ****ing house. When you die can I have it? I'll be sure to put BLM signs in the front yard in memory of you lol.
I'm joking please don't ban me lol
Looks great. Have a home inspector come out and do a wind mitigation now that you have the shutters, will get you an insurance discount usually
