    I’ve worked for a owner of a plumbing company. Years ago. And he said send me someone with a FING BRAIN 🧠. With this remodel, it shows you the amount of brains that were involved in this and should’ve costed more for the homeowner to make it right.

    That Honeywell Thermostat has an anticipator. NEVER jump the red and white wires of a thermostat circuit when it has an anticipator in the thermostat. You burn out the fine wire on the anticipator when you jump out the circuit. Always remove one wire on the thermostat circuit before jumping out the thermostat.

      Absolutely wrong.
      Ohms law proves it’s fine and the only additional reason why it would matter is obsolete.
      For one - ohms law states...in parallel...voltage stays the same and amperages divide...not add
      For two - If you jump out the thermostat when you remove the jumper, the magnetic field collapses in the gas valve coil and produces back emf, that is what takes out the anticipator, like the spark from an auto coil. But conditions have to be just right. That is only on older style gas valves that are not manufactured anymore.
      Additionally, that label that tells you not to jump wires on some thermostats is likely a result of one person accidentally shorting R to C on a thermostat that had a clock. Not because it had an anti capacitor.

The boss had to come back at midnight to fix it in the middle of winter. I was like its nice he cut and capped pipes that had nothing to do with your job. My boiler and my sisters boiler was 2 feet apart.

    Really, that will be an easy fix. The contractor cut 2 exposed pipes, and they remain exposed once the wall, behind the bathroom, is opened. So settle in your chairs, and have a beer and quit the throwing empty bottles onto the field. Not wanting heat in the bathroom remains a mystery.

I told her to add roof venting for dryer and kitchen exhaust fan. nope sure didnt do it. As the roof was redone . Oh its a gass cook srove too. I say whatever..

    I could probably fix it without digging by rerouting a new pipe to the next in line section. since it's copper(metallic), signal tracing will work to follow it. that could involve building a soffit/boxing in the pipe though.

      @@peteyc2292 exactly, sine it's seemingly all metallic pipe you can use " common locating/tracing" gear to hook to other end of loop and trace it back to the last radiator/baseboard and figure a way to run a new pipe from closet to that point. maybe surface mount on wall/ceiling and box it in or hide behind crown moulding, etc.
      granted that's not what an HVAC/R/plumbing company would take on solely. just the plumbing part I could see, assuming they had locating gear. it should all be on the other contractors dime though.
