Mike your videos show proof that your tools can not only make your job easier but much faster and efficient installations. Not having the right tools will slow you down and also cost the homeowner less in labor. This is also why you can get a 2 day job down to a few hrs. Customers question your prices, but in the end, this is why you charge what you charge a good work Mikey pipes and congrats on your new channel. You’ll always have subscribers here.
Thanks brother!!
Nice 👍 install……Peter’s starting to figure out the “in’s and out’s“ of the Trade!
Be careful of the quiet ones!😂😂
Pretty sick looking unit. I install Rheem/Raypak pool heaters at work and have been considering upgrading my hot water tank at home. I know they build a pretty decent product. Job well done as always guys. Keep making these trades great.
Mike, I’m up in southern New York state and I use Viega pure flow fittings all the time. Most of the time that I use them under crawlspaces is where it is easier and quicker to assemble the baseboard loops. Sometimes I use the expansion tool, but for the most part I use the pure flow fittings. I also found that when you have tight joints the pure flow works better on install. Great videos.
Hey Mikey Pipes Love the install. I need one of those Rheems at my house in Jersey. Excellent video
Looks like a nice machine
Smart plumbing job. That crawl wasn't bad at all. Hope you made money man!
Peter is absolutely right about the flush valves! There is also no sediment trap on the gas line!
I think NY went to no drips allowed. I know at least the city did, I know plumbers in the city. Not sure why. Especially with all the new high pressure gas carries more moisture.
@@tuppersdad interesting, I live in MA so I would have no clue lol. The more you know.
Viega pure flow is great been using with my dad for 10 years. Only negative thing is the fittings are slightly smaller id.
I’ve seen leaks from expansion not sure if it’s the chloromine in our domestic water. We stub in copper on holdrites. The sound of that press cycling is the sound of $$$
Mikey feeding the peeps

Just an aesthetic comment Mikey!!! I always make sure and turn the lettering away on my pvc pipe, and also I hate, just really hate primer drips!!! That being said, nice job and how dare that customer bargain that much, lol.
My whole house is pexA including the radiant heat in the concrete basement and upstairs. I have never had a single issue with it in 22 years. I am a real fan of wirsbo/Uponor. Even Home Depot is carrying some of it now. Nice to see you using it.
Thanks for sharing
We have a Nick Sighting!! Behind you Mike quick
The word is Nick was abducted and the green little guys released him.
Could have used a circ valve on furthest fixture with no return line to save some money on bid right?
Your customer let you use the bathroom that's cool
Did you insulate the lines?
Wow Nick stayed for this one
This was yesterday
@@MikeyPipesUncensored I know, I can’t believe he stayed! 🌭
Did i see the exhaust of the hot water heater near an outside air conditioner coil
So with the re-circulation line , do you run to every fixture or the the furthest fixture ? Just trying to get some thoughts ..
👍
Prequel to Nick's Big Exit lol
Hey it's the fugitive Nick! 🚔
Haha
Wait where did Nick go? Oh there he is
Descale valves
Mikey why didn’t you put in a navien???
Hey Mike, explain why you put the hot and cold pex next to each other, are you not worried about thermal transfer between hot and cold, I'm thinking they need to be at least 4" apart or insulated.
Ohh god
Hey Mike
Hello
Do you still like Bosch ?
What would be the best wall hung high efficiency water heater for radiant floor heat and hot water for indirect.
Who gives the longest warranty?
Have to go look at one of these tomorrow home owner says re circ is on and line is tagged in but still takes forever to get hot water at furthest fixture.
Good luck
@@MikeyPipesUncensored thanks Mikey love the videos.
Hey Mickey
Hi
How many GPM do you think that master can use at the same time?
Around 8
Why don't you insulate the 1in pex and the return line?
yup we insulated
If he wouldn't have reduced the price you would have Armeflexed the pipe to reduce the heat loss.
I hope the customer paid in green backs.
They can use the money they saved to pay plumber extra when they have to replace sump pump inside the Home Depot bucket. 🤣🤣
# F NAVIEN. I just condemned my GM's NPE-180 yesterday. 5yrs old. Johnstone came thru and Gave new Unit at less than Cost. No questions asked, no calls to NAVIEN
I thought you used to pimp Bosch????
I don’t but that nick seems to disappear . Just like he walked off the job on the boiler install
I don’t know
You can bring a camel to the water, but you cannot force it to drink
I’d hate to be the guy that has to service that sump pump, now with 3 water lines right on top of it
It’s called a fernco. The last idiot, like you, can remove it easily
Drop leg for gas???????????
Yes
Caught that too. No sediment trap for the gas line. Maybe if the customer would’ve paid full price, he would’ve put it on 😂
Rheem is garbage now
Why didn’t you insulate those pipes! That’s unforgivable.
