This was an exact replacement for the old one that lasted about 10 years. th-cam.com/users/postUgkx7yWIKcrbA9KMHkGSfcgxW2lsjHT6B8Sh The top of my mitigation tube by my roofline was just a 90 elbow which allowed too much debris to fall down into the fan, eventually ruining it. Without this issue, I bet it would have kept running another 10 years. When I replaced this fan, I added an extra elbow joint so the top tube now it does a 180, which should solve that problem. The radon guys around here wanted to charge me a $300 diagnostic fee, then parts/labor (probably close to $600 total). I installed this all by myself in about an hour for the cost of the fan; it would probably be even easier/faster with two people. FYI the manufacturer's warranty greatly differs depending on whether you install it yourself (1 yr warranty) or have a licensed installer do it (10 yrs).
this country needs more people like you who are straight up and honest!!!
I emailed Mike about my Rinnai issue. Very soon after, we spoke over the phone. I can't say enough what a kind and intelligent person this guy is. Thanks for all your help!
One of the Best Instructional Videos Ever! Clear, tight, concise. Information in every sentence. No wasted time. Right to the point with accurate info. You could teach in a Vo-Tech School. Thanks.
As Jay Leno says, “there is always a guy who knows it like none other.” You are the Rinnai. We just installed our exterior unit. Best videos on tankless. Also love your shop! Thank you video on my channel!
Wow why thank you very much.
Thanks again for your advice ! I swapped out an old unit that had a leaking heat exchanger for a whole new, identical unit. All the plumbing and vent lined up without much problem. Hot water again! For those of you out there who are contemplating work on a rinnai ....listen to Mike ! He really knows what he's talking about.
I watch your festool videos! I didn't know you have this plumbing content. I'm so grateful. Thanks for the videos as I'm trying to DIY this
Mike, thank you so much for taking time on a Sunday night to call someone 2000+ miles away! We appreciated your troubleshooting our lack of power on our Rinnai propane water heater. It was great talking with you. You are definitely an expert on Rinnai!
I will be installing my first Rinnai in a month. I may need to call you to discuss whether or not I will need a PRV. Thank you for these videos man, they are priceless. You are doing God's work for plumbers.
This guy is awesome.
I needed several answers regarding my Rinnai tankless install. I am not even in his area and he still took the time to talk. If it wasn’t for Mike my local installer would have made a few poor choices when installing my Rinnai. Thanks to Mike several counties over....I had a good install.
Thanks Mike!!!!!!!!!
I guess Im kinda randomly asking but does anyone know a good website to watch newly released series online ?
@Chase Tommy lately I have been using FlixZone. You can find it on google :)
Great Instructional! I love this guy. I'm a 30+ year gas tech. Never put in a Tankless. Your videos are going to be priceless. Thank you.
Huge help brother. I know you must get a lot of calls and I truly appreciate you taken the call and helping us out! You answered questions for us that even tech support couldn’t.
Thanks again!
I just completed my RUC98i install in Michigan. I could not have finished without Mike as a resource. I called him 4 times over the weekend and he could not have been nicer or more helpful, especially since there was nothing in it for him. Rinnai should be thankful to have an dealer/installer like Mike. After Mike clued me into the aggravating hidden mixer valves in my master bath (no more daily complaints from wife about bath water temp), the unit is running great. Even with very cold incoming Michigan water, it is cranking out 130 degrees no problem.
First off, I want thank you so very much for your videos. They are awesome and gave me the confidence to tackle my installation after several attempts at getting a pro to do it (either they never replied or gave me a $5k+ estimate). We were without hot water for two weeks! It took me several days doing it alone, but I took my time, especially with the venting. Unit works great 👍. We have hot water 🙏🏻😁 Also, thank you for answering my questions via email! I seriously could not have done this install without your help!
First let me thank you for answering my call, and giving me the information I needed. I will continue to watch your videos, and try to learn as mush as I can. You are a very good teacher. Thank you once again for your training.
This guy is frikkin AMAZING!! I had some questions about installing a V65i on my converted skoolie and he called me and helped me out! makes the internet worthwhile. Am going to post pictures when I'm done - THANKS MIKE!
Thanks Mike. I have a Rinnai unit in my house, been operating flawlessly foe 16 years. I clean it with a pump, a couple of buckets and vinegar. When I need a new unit it will be a Rinnai. Excellent video(s), keep up the great work!
Bob Colorado wow that’s great! I tell all my customers if you take care of the tankless it will last 20 years. I will forward your comment to the Rinnai Rep. I glad to hear it’s working good for you. Could you send me the model number and the state you live in. Mike
The Rinnai Guy is the Man to watch! Clear, precise, and extremely informative. He even utilized his personal time to return my call and personally assist me with my questions that I posted to TH-cam. Pleasant man to speak to. Thanks again Mike. Your help is truly appreciated.
Super guy! Emailed him a question this morning and got a reply around noon! He told me to call after 6 pm if I had any more questions. I called and he discussed the issue completely and offered more help, if needed. Very knowledgeable. I am extremely impressed!
I'm so glad that I found this. Other than contractors that hate DIY home owners (including my electrician brother some of the time) I don't see why anyone would give this video a thumbs down.
I was trying to decide which brand of tankless water heater to buy with the Rinnai definitely up in the running. I will go with the Rinnai mainly because of your videos and clear explanations. You have removed any reservations I had and answered any questions I have (and probably many I would have had).
I have a 1100 square foot house (built around 1945) in Michigan with one bathroom, kitchen sink, washing machine and laundry tub with a (new) well for a water source. This used to be our summer cottage and now a full time home. It's a small house but being I traded square footage for lake frontage it's what I have. There is just my wife and I now so there is no big drain (pun intended) on the water system so I figure that a 6.5 GPM 150K BTU system should work out fine. My one significant concern is the well water quality but being I am also doing a major upgrade on the water filtration system (which will probably include a poly-phosphate filter) I don't think it will be that much of a problem as long as I do the maintenance on the tankless.
My current project is replacing the mix of copper, galvanized and PVC plumbing with PEX and moving all plumbing mechanicals into a small utility room that also contains my force air furnace. I only decided to move everything into the furnace utility room because of the space saving feature of a tankless water heater. So being the current water tank is 14 years old and won't fit comfortably in this utility room and to me a tankless water heater is a 'no-brainer' it is the path I am going on. I would add that I am doing much of the plumbing work in an 18 inch high encapsulated (previous project) crawl space.
I think I will be going with the Rinnai V65iN. I would go with the Energy Star rated top line model however Rinnai 'mandates' that it ONLY be installed by a licensed professional or the warranty will be voided. With the Value line it is only 'recommended' to have a professional install it and there is no mention in the warranty that it would be voided if not using a pro. The price difference between the two would be slightly offset by the $100 rebate ONLY for an Energy Star rated water heater. Personally I can't understand why warranty is voided if a pro doesn't install the luxury Energy Star line but not the Value line.
Over the last forty years I have probably installed over twenty standard water heaters not to mention done ALL maintenance and renovation on any house I have owned for personal use or rentals including two that I built from the ground up. I always go by code and don't cut corners but I have done a LOT of cussing dealing with work that previous owners have done far to many times to count. On the few occasion that I have missed meeting code on anything the building inspectors always point it out and have me correct it. The inspectors have always been fairly strict with home owners over pros and I have learned that it is NEVER a good idea to argue with an inspector - even when they are wrong. I have had follow-up inspectors tell me that I did NOT have to make a change because the work was actually up to code before hand. It's not uncommon for building inspectors to disagree with what is code. But again it is not worth it to argue.
So after reading my very long winded comment I would appreciate it if you have any comments or suggestions. Thanks!
Mike-THANK YOU for answering my email and taking my phone call after your work day to walk me through my attic install. You are a gracious wealth of info. Sei fantastico.
Can I have the email please or phone number????
Wanted to thank you for this amazing video - I was able to buy this unit and install it myself, replacing my tanked water heater, and I couldn't have done it without this video and a couple of your other videos. My RL94iN has worked for over a year now with heavy use without even a single issue, and I give you all the credit for this. The detail you go into was just priceless and right on every time.
The RL94IN has wifi?? To be honest i want it as basic as it comes. I dont need extra shit on my wifi
@@humblebragger500 at the time I purchased it, it did not come with wifi - I think they sell a few compatible kits that add on this and other capabilities.
Mike, good job on explaining the basics of a tankless water heater. This is much needed, I find many plumbers shy away from installing tankless heaters because they don't understand them, or they have had a bad experience with one when they first became available in the United States. I'm looking forward to future videos and will be telling folks to check out your channel.
R. Dowden thank you very much, that's why I started this channel. I too had very bad experiences with tankless heaters when my business was in NY. When we moved to Florida I researched and tried out Rinnai and never looked back. Thanks for the comment Mike
Just a fyi if you cut 3 inches off the plastic you still cut 3 inches off the stainless. It starts 1/2 inch longer so you take the same amount off each and its still half inch longer
I was looking for all the extra part that goes with Rinnia, in this unit that is not included. And I enjoyed your presentation on the Rinnia tankless water heater.
Mike thanks for answering all of my questions regarding how best to vent a tank less condensing water heater in my basement that needs to vent via my abandoned oil furnace masonry chimney. If you ever get to Seattle, look me up and the coffee or beer is on me!
Frank in Seattle
mike, love your videos. between your videos & reading the installation manual cover to cover (several times), i have no doubt i can install the RU199iN i want and do it just as well as a pro, for about a 1/4 of the cost. however, if i do install myself, Rinnai WILL NOT honor their warranty. "In order for this warranty to apply, it is required that you use a trained and qualified professional who has attended a Rinnai installation training class before installing this water heater." that is straight out of their installation manual. i contacted Rinnai and they confirmed this is 100% true. Not telling you what to do, but maybe you should mention this in your videos. All of the confidence i have gained to DYI this unit almost made me make a $2000+ mistake. it's a machine, things will go wrong, and Rinnai would not have covered the repairs. because of this, i have no choice but to install a Rheem. i can replace the Rheem 4 times for what it would cost for me to have someone else install a Rinnai just once. still, your videos have been a HUGE help. thank you!
Call me at 19042385349 tomorrow after 5pm eastern time before you do anything and I will go over it with you.
Mike
Thank you for the detailed description of the connection for the venting.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you. This was very helpful. A different video mentioned the exhaust / intake as concentric; I had no clue what they were talking about except that I "assumed" (correctly). You went out of your way to describe the exhaust/intake vent kit. Very helpful.
More and more people are going this way to save money and not waste ... ideal ... and even so equipment is getting more and more efficient. The only issue is the cost of installation; pricey up here in the northeast.
Just ordered a rinnai RU160 and vent kit to install under the house in place of the old tank heater. I'll be watching your videos for awhile, I'm sure. Wish me luck (and thanks for the videos)!
Tilting the vent to drain the condensation outside is a great idea for places in a warmer climate. The manual says tilted back so that the condensate comes inside. I believe the reasoning is that you could build up a giant stalagmite of ice and clog the vent
Just wanted to publicly thank you for responding to my Hail Mary call last month. We truly appreciate your call, follow-up and are hoping that your reference comes through. Sincere Thanks To You Either Way!! 🙏🏽
Mike was great! He spend a long time on the phone with my husband and I on how to install the tankless water heater. Very informative. Thanks Mike
Hi , I’m hoping you check in often! I live in Belmont Maine in a Log Cabin that we purchased in 2021 , I would like to upgrade to a Tankless hot water heater. Please Know that this cabin is 100 percent off Grid with Solar and a Windmill and a 12,000 watt generator. With this being said this cabin has everything you need and does not suffer any power issues at all . 4season home with no problem, for 17 yrs by the Previous owner , we So the stand up hot water heater is propane fed , we would like to stay with Propane!! Also when we are not here the cabin is shut down completely!!!!! So the unit would have to have the capability of being shut off and restarted by myself . Just like the existing hot water heater,Gas stove, gas Fridge,we have now. The cabin has plenty of electrical boxes for power source, the unit would be in the concrete basement where the hot water tank is now . The Venting of the hot water tank comes out of the top , turns into a 90’ goes straight for 36’ thru wall to outside with a cap on it . If you could make any Recommendations for this Project ! I would Appreciate it . Thank You
I have to get back to work but I wanted to say, this is an Excellent Video, Thank You Very Much, You are an Excellent Speaker and I am going to subscribe. I am putting a Rennai 199 Hot water heater, pulling my own permits after our gas company wanted to charge me $4000 dollars to install. Thank You, Robert
Thanks so much for posting this Mike. My son is going to get a tankless water heater very soon. This video as well as your "installation" video are very helpful! Bob in Virginia
Bob Troxell he will not regret it. The new Rinnai units are so very well made and if maintained every year will last 20 years. Thanks for the comment Mike
Super helpful. I just bought at 7.5i and plan to install myself. This is so helpful - thanks
Mike, God bless you for these videos. Truly appreciate it!
Thanks Rinnai Guy! You just saved me money, and time. I have been fretting over how I was going to run this 3/4 inch pipe which I would have run off a capped 3/4" Tee coming off of an 1" pipe approx. 10ft away. Especially when I have a 1/2 inch pipe approx. 2 feet away from where I need to install my RL94I. I will used a Tee to increase that line to a 3/4" directly to the Rinnai as you said at 14:02 in the video. Oh yeah Mike, This statement is also a request for confirmation if I should proceed with this plan as I suggested.. Thanks for you knowledge. Looking forward to your reply. Thank you.
Finally someone who an explain why...Thanks Mike
Great video. It was exactly what I needed to answer the questions I had to install mine.
Thanks for the help to understand how to put one in
Very knowledgeable , and easy on the ears ... it all makes sense.... Subscribed !
Awesome, thank you!
Mike you are the best at explaining details thank you 😊 🙏
SO my only hang up in swapping to tankless would be the venting. Current tank is in the middle of the basement venting out a chimney. It would be a long run (15 FT) of venting to get it to an outside wall.
Thanks, you've brought a lot of clarity into focus.
1961CDAVDABREEZER no problem. Thanks Mike
excellent video thanks - busy installing a rsc199EN after our little takagi blew out after 15 years and this is worth gold! Will def be following up on that vinegar trick, maybe a short detailed video on that showing what u do (filter in/ out etc?). Thanks!
Thank you for taking the time to make this valuable video .
Louie The plumber no problem
The man knows his stuff
Scott Lundy thanks
Excellent video you covered everything i didnt know. Too much trouble . gonna take the unit back and settle for a regular heater
You say "Hit the up arrow till you hit 120" , but then you say you have to call Rinnai to get it to go to 120 . So which is it ? Love these videos , very informative .
That’s past 120 you need to set a dip switch Tom make it go to 140
@@TheBuddylab So he just mis-spoke at 17:45 , when he said there is a way to raise it to 120 by calling Rannai or by a qualified service person. Kind of figured that . Our last one went to 120 on its own , and we were wondering what to look out for when we get the next one.
@TheBuddylab my ru199i is always exhausting or at least I can hear it run through the exhaust but the in use button is not lit up when it does this. Vented with 3 inch pvc it's propane too..any thoughts?
this guy is the best!
Kimberly Dee thank you very much
Great stuff. Answered all my questions about the installation of the unit.
Thank you Mike !!!
Happy Holidays!!!
Thank you Mike. This is probably the most informative video I've seen on TH-cam. My question is about how to vent this unit if its on an interior wall? How far can I run the vent stack.
Call me at 19042385349 today around noon eastern time and I will go over it with you
Great video. Oh and I see he's for the Imperium.
Thank you very much and yes a big Space marine fan been collecting for 25 years.
New watcher and new subscriber. I've recently purchased a RL94iN. Gathering info for me to install. Thanks for making these videos!
If you happen to read this, please link the videos that you reference in the videos in the description
Thank you for the videos. I am trying to troubleshoot the operation of RL94iN. When opening, then closing a cold valve anywhere in the house, the RL94iN exhaust motor turns on for a second or two. I am told something is wrong. I am the homeowner.
There is something bypassing to make the water servo valve turn for a few seconds. Did you add or repair anything in your plumbing system. You can call me at +19042385349 and I could go over it with you
First of all I live in ILL. purchased a Rinnai tankless ( in transit ) tried to locate the gas pressure reg. you use. did not find yet, however all info I came across indicates one is not needed due to it is built in the unit???? With that said MY total system requires at max. cap 359CFH. Gas Co. installed a meter with 10lbs pressure and a cap for 425CFH. I believe a pressure reg. is needed to handle the 10lbs. What you say? Thanks for all that you do. You help a lot of people!
To be clear, SIMPLY MAKE SURE the gas comes OUT of the base (ie stem) of the tee, and NEVER IN to it... for a sediment trap that is both according to NFPA 54 code and functional!
Nice instruction, time to get ur done!
thanks for posting this. very helpful.
ou81218 no problem
Thank you for the information 🙏. On point 👉
Enjoyed this video very much.Just have one try problem, try to cut down on your basicallys
Thank you for excellent explain.
It’s necessary at the tankless heaters installation of extension tank for reducing the pressure
Thank you
very helpful, thank you very useful information
SG thanks
Hello first, thank for the videos, that are very illustrative and thank's for the help to the question I asked you.
I have a Rinnai V94ip and now already have the metal vent and the water heater is installed and working but I have a little problem.
When opening the hot water the heater works perfectly but when closing all the valves and all fausets the heater activates at times, even when the Hot water is closed.
It is not normal that it is turning on every moment for a few seconds if it is not being used. I called Rinnai and they did a kind of test by pressing a few buttons on the heater panel. They told me that the pressure of the water going into the heater (Town water) should not be right, that could be the reason. try to install a check valve and pressure tank at the heater inletI Really I don't understand why that happens if the hot water outlet valve is closed.
It only stops when both valves are closed (hot water and cold water)
But when you open the cold water valve again and keep the hot water valve closed the heater starts and working for a few seconds and it turns off after a moment it starts working again, turns on the fan and for about 2 or 3 seconds the red "in use" light is activated and turns off again... . that happens all the time ... I musted have it turned off ...I'm very worried. Thanks so much...
Thanks your very knowledgeable
We installed a new René water heater and the keypad when programming it I think we switched it to propane, but it should’ve been natural gas and we don’t know how to switch it back
Man, they made it so complicated here in US.
In Europe they using the simpliest on demand water heaters, almost every apartment in multiunit building has it, they never go out of service, reliable, safe, easy to install and exhausted through chimney vent.
This is just nonsence!
I watched your installation I want to show you mine
Great videos Mike. Because of you I purchased and installed a RL94i around mid March 2019 and it has worked great and would reccomend it to others. But now we have a problem and hate the thought of taking such relatively new unit apart for repair. We have not been home for the last two days so no hot water use. Now the unit is showing an error code eleven when we turn on hot water. After turnning the hot water back off the code clears. I have turned the heater off then on via the key pad, un-plugged the hearter electrical cord, then I removed cover and all looks good. Lastly I removed and inspected the igniter and flame sensors which were clean but wiped them off anyways, reinstalled the assembly and tested for good ingniter spark. But, still code eleven each time we try to use hot water. Next was search TH-cam for a fix. I cant beleive the burner is dirty or plugged already. Any suggestion would be appreciated.
Such a fantastic video! I just had one installed yesterday and way too much of the white plastic sleeve was sticking out the side of the house. Looks like a missile hit us! I’ve asked him to trim it back and make it flush...I’m hoping he stands by his work and will do it for us.
Also, how can I be sure that there is a proper pitch for drainage?
Thanks Mike. Keep up the good job!
Thanks for making these videos, they are great and helpful for DIY community. I am also planning to upgrade to tankless water heater next week. I live in Texas and my unit will be in a closet 2nd floor. My vents are going over the roof. I do not have a luxury to drill a new hole for the new exhaust. I am thinking to use the existing vent for the final 2 feet of the pipe (PVC pipe from the unit to the roof and connecting PCV to the metal pipe 1 to 2 feet below the roof). Also I am planning to use intake pipe ending in attic instead of going out. Attic is huge not sure if it makes difference. If possible, can you please let me know if it is OK to connect to the last two feet of the existing exhaust and leaving intake end in the attic. Appreciate your (any one in the community) response. Advance thanks.
What happens if my home is ran with half inch copper height no 3/4 should I not put a tankless in and stay with the tank I'm worried about a half inch lines not being sufficient thank you appreciate everything you do
Don’t buy a tankless unless you are a handy person. If you’re not handy you will be spending a boat load of money calling a plumber out to diagnose fault codes. These things always throw codes. More complex than the normal tank type so there are more things that can go wrong.
Tell them to make @ You Tube video for installation instructions so I don’t have to read cause eyes are getting bad.plus ADHD employees have hARD TIME READING MANUALS. MOST COMPANIES NOW DO VIDEOS TOO
I just notice your video is 6rs old. Did they ch@nge for better models
You're the best man. Thank you for making this instructional video. :)
I have no brakes, and I must stop no problem, I hope it was helpful. Mike
Excellent Video. You make it look easy. The other video on Rinnai I saw had a guy spend 11 minutes on if you have a problem with your system it is because you did not hire a trained Rinnai installer. Since there is not one near me and I am very capable having built my own home, could a DIYer install one of these correctly? Your video makes it seem straightforward.
Jordan Epstein if your very handy and it sounds like you are. The gas line is the hardest. First question what type of gas do you have and how far away is the gas tap from where your tankless will be. If you go onto my other channel mikes wood shop there's a complete install of a rinnai unit.
If you can give me the number of showers in your house I can give you the correct size unit. Thanks Mike
I have purchased a Rinnai V65ip that I'm installing this weekend at my cabin. You mentioned that you have a video of the install from start to finish. I have watched several of your videos, but I can't find that one. Could you guide me to it. Also, I can't find your email you mentioned. Thank you so much for your videos. You have done an amazing job and given me what I need to do this right. Thank you!
very fine explanation and good work, could you please how to get practice or knowledge from Rinnai to fix of the part and maintenance of the product.
I still work as a plumber but I need more practice I live in Australia. I Still study as a plumber in the TAFE, but the Teacher doesn't know too much.
thank you very much. for you show how to install.
I don't like that you have to have water pipes in an outside wall. You did save me a huge headache
Very Nice Video!!! I wish you were in the Albany Area. I would hire you!!!!!!
The Cold Water Inlet must be 3/4 Inch MNPT and Hot Water Outlet: 3/4 Inch MNPT? or I could connect to a 1/2 Inch line with a 3/4 adapter fitting?
Liviu Vasilică try to go as far back with the 3/4” as you can
Huge PIA to install, even requires an electrical outlet!! .. guess I'll swap my tank hot water heater for a new one.
Very good, just wish he and people in the trades would use the word 'basically' less often.
Great video Mike. Just a quick question. Is there a building code restriction about how far the exhaust termination needs to be from an operable window? What about a roof overhang?
If your in the US it’s one foot from a window three feet from a overhang
Great video
Don’t know which way to go. Indoors or outdoors... Got a Bradford White hot water heater I hate indoors. Need the space and want to lower gas bill. I’m confused now. For indoors I believe I’d need another plug outlet 🤨 So that’s not gonna work. House is already maxed on volts. Two bathroom home, just hubby and I. Can you suggest a Energy efficient Rinnai possibly! I watched and subscribe to your channel. Great info.
I would go with a RL7.5E that’s the external model. you will still need a plug for the inside or outside model but you only need a 15 amp breaker to run the Rinnai. You could share an outlet to operate the tankless. I hope this helped Mike
great video!
I need Mr Woods tool to remove the filter from my tankless water heater.
Would like to buy the brass tool you sold me on with previous video.
Brian
Brian, I am selling them for Mr. Woods at this time we have the aluminum ones that the one we have been using. The brass is hard to get the stock and it’s 10x more e. E mail me at economyplmbg@aol.com and I will give you more info. Mike
Thank you 🙏
How to light up the ignition on the Rinnai hot water heater
Yo Mike your videos are awesome nice and thorough!!! I have a question, I don’t have 3/4” water supply to unit, also exiting side isn’t 3/4 also, what should I do?
Increase the water lines to 3/4” as far back as you could. I know sometimes it not that easy. Good luck
@@mikesmodeltable9040 thank you, I called rinnai and they thought it wouldn’t be that big a deal, I’m just hoping to avoid error codes
Great instruction! Just one question about venting !what if the vent is vertical straight up through the roof ?
RaKhem KhepeRa call me at +19042385349 and I will go over it with you
Hello Mike can you please helping me on making the right decision on what model of Rinnai and the cost of installing. Thank you
How do I know what size Rinnai heater I need for my house?
Call me at +19042385349 tomorrow after 5pm and I will go over it with you Mike
Came across this informative video. I am basically looking for opinion are you able to convert RL94eN to RL94iN ?
Sunday Olufelo no you can’t there’s is nothing available to do that.
Mike thank you for your awesome videos and wisdom. My question is that I have a tankless that I am replacing with a Rinnai RU160iN, the question is that there is a stainless steel pipe already going there... Do I need to replace that with Universal Horizontal termination kit if that is already there?
Nevermind, rookie mistake...I saw your other video on the difference and it makes sense. I will replace it and use the kit to only use 1 line. Keep up the AWESOME videos!!! God bless you!!!
No problem there is a ton more videos if you need them. Good luck with it. Mike
