Do Mini Splits Work Below 0°F

      Great question. I had all new plumbing installed in the entire house to include the kitchen and another bathroom aside from the new one I added. It was $12k which included new pvc drains everywhere, new manifold, new pex everywhere and even a new water heater install. I imagine adding one bathroom would be 2-3k depending on how difficult the new lines are to run. If it’s an open basement or crawl space below, then it could be cheaper! Hope that helps!

  • @elohnroc
    @elohnroc 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I'm confused by these laser levels. If your reference is off, in your case the old base plate, won't your result also be off. Or in other words, let's say your old base plate was running in or out 1/8th of an inch per foot, won't your line for your wall also be off?

    • @Jacob-Shields
      @Jacob-Shields 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Since the laser level is automatically displaying the level and plumb plane, if you build the wall off of this reference, it will be plumb and level. Now as far as the wall I built being exactly 90 degrees from the other walls, well it’s not but that is much less important. You can still use the laser level to get square corners though for perpendicular walls, you would just adjust the laser level to the existing wall and then mark the 90 degree laser to get a perfect angle between the walls. You might be thinking of the old laser levels that needed to be leveled themselves in order to trust the laser line. These new ones are internally leveling so you just turn them on and go, all the lasers are plumb and level. Thanks for your comment!

  • @BriteLake
    @BriteLake 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Eight years ago I removed my fiberglass bathtub and replaced it with a porcelain bathtub. I had decided the surround walls would be in a herringbone design. Then I became intimidated and froze dead in my tracks. Now, eight years later that bathtub still cannot be used cause the herringbone project was never started. I thought the only way to finish the project was to forego the herringbone design and replace it with the boring horizontal rows of subway tiles because hiring a professional tiler to tile the herringbone pattern would be cost-prohibited. I now have my mojo back after watching your video. I recently saw another YT guy whose tutorial was helpful. He started the first row, vertically at the center point on the back wall and then worked upwards, not horizontally across the back wall the way you're doing your project. Yours makes a lot of sense. It appears once that bottom row going across the three walls is set the next rows should be easier and faster. Much like prepping walls before painting. Prepping anything is always time-consuming while the actual project is a lot quicker. Thank you for your idea. I will be looking through your other videos for great ideas. God bless you for sharing your ideas.

    Tiles are running on a 45° angle. The speed square you are using has a 90° angle, or a right angle. Other than that little bit of picking... this is a good idea for starting the pattern.

    just draw your frist run on the wall and go off of that use the bottom to level out, if the bottom is level most tile are not all the same size so even if you have a few tile run off up to half an inch the line nobodies going to see that with all the grout line going everywhere.

      I don’t have the rate for when I filmed the video but we had a very cold December last month and I was averaging 6.37kWh/day which is $1.24/day where I’m at! That is to maintain 45deg so nothing freezes, I was not out working much this last December so I imagine it could be about double to get up to 65 every day during week days if I was out working. Hope that helps! Definitely one of the best additions to my garage I’ve ever made.
