I wish our customers would expose the leak for us
Hi steve!!! I just soldered copper yesterday !!!!!!I really like mapp gas alot !!
Tell the homeowner not to show the insurance company the strap,they may cancel him because of latent defects,the straps throughout the house,good job,making it right ,one job at a time!!
Always enjoy watching you solder, you are really a master at it !!
On lunch break, perfect time
Steve I used to watch you all the time but as I've gotten busier and busier I haven't been able to watch regularly in years. I check back every once in a while and I'm always glad to see you're still doing good and still onrey as always :) thanks for all the entertainment over the years and for never changing. I hope one day to be in mass to buy you a beer or lunch 👍
Nothing but quality here.
Great job Steve.
Another great video Steve, awesome job as always! Keep the video's coming ☝️ 👍💥💯
Nice fix.
You’re amazing, when I saw your first shot of the leak I thought “no way”
When the homeowner becomes Steve's apprentice.
Great Video. Thank you for sharing
Great video !!!!
So I'm a female homeowner with a copper elbow leaking from the ceiling .The pipe is exposed just over the doorway (no door) in-between my kitchen into the laundry room so drips onto the floor. I see the green corrosion and very small hole but the corrosion isn't bad ,house built in the 50s been here 14 years 1st leak ever. Lol..The small hole was a tiny sprinkle months ago but now a drip. Oh Lord, I think the elbow needs replacing. Just watching to see how yall fix these leaks as I place a bucket under the leak 😂. Lol....
( will send out an S.O.S. to my brother in law tomorrow as the sound of the drip is driving me 🤪)
Always enjoy your videos Steve. 👍
Yeah, they say that "construction" plumbers often refuse to do plumbing "repairs".
I like when we get to see Miss Molly
couldn't use the cut off wheel :( keep those soldering (and unsoldering) skills current. nice job
"Why do you wear gloves? Why didn't you use a shark bite? Should have let the homeowner do it!"
shark bite fitting are for morons
Funny I ask him same question in another video why the gloves bro
Howdy Steve and Molly
Hello Steve!
Too bad they couldn't solder those 2 pipes any closer together?
I thought you would have removed the new brasscraft plastic valve stems and rubber washers prior to soldering.
why do extra work ?? it not needed
Hey Steve and Miss Molly! Workin’ again y’all. 👍👍. Miss Molly loves to drive, lol
It's a capillary infraction if you don't use flux.
Nibco straps are still all copper, not shitty copper cladding. Hopefully they don't change anytime soon
Napa synthetic oil made by valvoline and use Napa gold filters made by wix your best bet or shell rotella t5 oil
Unfortunately most of them don't know how
What a complete fraudulent plumber installing "copper clad" steel. Stuff like this is why homeowners should be able to sue for damages because of the city code inspectors approval or signing off on this crud. I presume it is not acceptable for meeting code.
what the flux? lol
I know you don't let the jerks bother you Steve - still - it's annoying that there are video surfers that don't have a life of their own and try to get attention by making smart ass comments - there's masses of people like me that enjoy every moment of all of your videos - I think you're the most "unfake" person I've ever seen on YT. I would guess that sometimes it must be a pain for you to keep up with your channel so thanks a ton for keeping the videos coming - I liked all of the JD stuff too (when your truck was down). Thank you 🙏
I had a small drip coming from a copper elbow. The weird thing is that it would only leak when the upstairs tub was running.
Water is going to follow the path of least resistance
It may seem at the elbow but it could be up above and running down the pipe.
Just seems weird only while it’s running
Water is in the pipes regardless if it’s in use or not
👍👍🔥
The best oil is clean oil. Costco sells full synthetic oil for cheap and it's not bad.
It’s never an easy job
Steve i wish you were active on Twitter. Anyways thank you for your videos they definitely give me an edge at work
Stay Safe!
😐👍🏻🥃🥃🍺🍺🍺🇺🇲
Probably Telemarketer s calling You. They used to call Me all of the time.
Tell Miss Molly To Bite The Telemarketers.
Very highly likely Type-m copper, and-or pipe side not reamed. Vortex within water will burn pin-holes within fittings themselfs, as well as pipe runs. Save 7.00 bucks differential per stick copper pipe, only to lose half day doing twice, cutting/patching included. 7.00 dollars, I'd follow there seminar advice.
Steve what flux & solder do you use. Is it lead free.
yes its lead free
How is the truck working out
new truck is great
HANG ON
I heard Steve is buying a pro press. 😂
lol, not
you herd wrong ,propress is for lazy want to be plumbers ,real plumbers use a torch .
I Strongly recommend Amsoil Oil for your truck
look up[ ford boss me ] i herd its way over rated. he sends oil out to be tested .. ses what he said about amsoil ... i ratter buy good cheaper oil but change it more offen ..
@@stevenlavimoniere Ford boss me is for the people. He saves consumers shit loads of money on oil
I all ways take them apart be for heating them up thay last longer
7.3 litres = 445.473 cubic inches
First comment yippee
Flux keeps it from oxidizing heat has nothing to do with capillary attraction space does take two sheets of glass sandwich to get her a place end in a glass of water you will see capillary attraction with no heat
Capillary action.
try soldering with out flux then if your so smart
@@stevenlavimoniere you miss the point Steve never said flux was not needed but other than making the solder liquid you don’t need heat but your pretty smart too
"Soldered joints depend on capillary action drawing free-flowing molten solder into the gap between the fitting and the tube. Flux acts as a wetting agent and, when properly applied, permits uniform spreading of the molten solder over the surfaces to be joined." That's from the Copper Development Association. Seems Steve is right - again.
Turn the shutoff valves so the handles are pointing slightly away from each other. This will ensure the handles do not bump into each other when turning the water on or off.
