Hay Steve I see you got your truck back. 👍👍👍👍
...”Ain’t this a special piece of junk”, lol 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
But it burn clean that is what it counts
When the vid first started, I saw the "red" boiler and thought, for a moment, that it was a Viessmann like ours. But nope.
Boilers are funny things. We've had our Viessmann for over 20 years now and it's been really amazing.
Very low maintenance.
But a month or so ago, I noticed that the "preventer" valve was leaking. It's a WATTS D9-M2.
It's connected directly to the regulator valve, WATTS 1156F.
So, I figured, I might as well replace both at once and also install a shutoff for the water inlet side. There's already a shutoff on the output to stop water from the furnace going into the valves too.
Having both in and out shutoffs will make future servicing easier.
I'm not a plumber at all, but I know my way around home repairs and I found the replacement of these 2 valves very easy.
I see some vids where people just change the valve and use the old fittings because they don't want to desolder.
But I chose to do it properly and replaced all new, including some new pipe as well.
Looks great and didn't cost several hundreds of dollars! LOL
Nice job and video
Houston we have a clean burn lift off
I'll bet down south like Arkansas, Tennessee and west Virginia they use those expansion tanks to make mini alcohol stills.
Miss Molly pushes out a little fritz at each job site. Haha! I love it :)
Come for the plumbing... Stay for Ms. Molly giving us her impression of the president election
As usual great video again. Your introduction style taking us for a ride in the truck with you as you go to the job site is great. I am not an expert on video production but is it possible to ease us into the noise of the truck in the videos? Like start out low volume and ramp up to normal volume as the video rolls to reduce the sudden quiet to truck transitions?
U know your stuff
Came for the leaka momma, stayed for the chooch
I what I like most with all that knowledge an hour work it is a week in a factory salary
Another great job by Steve and Molly continue to do well also stay safe had enough of this shit 😷😷😷
Good one, Steve. Got any cooking videos in the works ?
You all probably dont care at all but does any of you know a tool to get back into an Instagram account?
I was dumb lost the account password. I would appreciate any help you can give me!
@Madden Seth instablaster :)
@Aries Clark thanks for your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff now.
I see it takes a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Aries Clark it worked and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy:D
Thanks so much you saved my ass !
@Madden Seth no problem =)
Steve I was just wondering when you do your combustion test and then go to print your diagnosis out is it always that light, or some type of cartridge you have to replace from time to time.
Printer looks like a thermal printer. Print head could be dirty, or something wrong with the paper.
it needs new batteries then it will print darker
What is that thin wrench you are using called? much thinner than a standard

channel lock makes a nice thin one too.
I get an expansion tank that heavy I drill a hole in it and get the water out
How much does a job like this cost?
Yep 👍 stay away from home warranties they are a waste of money.! ✌️
I am my home warranty
I never drain down a boiler for a tank swap out , I just drop pressure small amount of water comes out , less hassle
All of my new installs I always put a ball valve so you don’t have to drain the unit down
Mike Fournier , Putting a valve between the tank and the system is a code violation , no valve is allowed.👷🏻
@@johnkrim8377 I've heard that, what's the reason just out of curiosity?
@@Keo0oo stupid home owners will shut it off. I install a valve and take the handle off of it. need a wrench to close it.
I heat the expansion tank up until it expands, then I wrench it off!😊
Can you explain what you mean by this?
@tombomombodombo what he means is he heats the threads with a torch or something to help release the threads. Metal expands and contracts with heat.
That or he means he heats it up till it drains its self.. that way it's not heavy? That would be something I'd question doing thi
Steve, love watching your channel. Maybe a cooking video in the future??
Why is the vessel always replaced? They always loose their static charge over time and the valve is there to allow you to re-pressurise them. Boilers here in the UK have integrated vessels that you can drain and recharge each yearly service and you'd only replace if the diaphragm perishes
a tank is usually less than a 100 bucks...just replace it.
Gotta love leverage till you snap a bolt then its the enemy
It’s a heavy one Mr. Grinch.
She's a leaker Moma !
Change your printer batteries Steve!
yes i need to today
youve gotta wait for the stack temperature to reach its steady state for at least a minute before you can get a proper reading on your test
I have this same problem, know anyone in queens New York that can fix this problem?
Nice job looking out for customer giving a break on a used gauge. Use up that stock
Looks like that gauge is older than Steve.
@@daviddesilva4971 I think he hesitated because he thought it might be cool saving. Lol. Always love seeing his tool box and truck stock.
It’s a leaker mama and crying
That dog is going to die
HSI ignition and it’s hard to service. A special piece of junk! 😉
A lot of talking, but very little information.

She's a crusty one 😂😂🤣🤣
