    Don't you love that when they ask you where you at? What time are you coming home? Or my favorite, are you on your way home? But as soon as you walk in, they are asleep or taking a nap. But one thing is they don't complain about the money that comes in the door every day.

    Put the "control valve" up and carefully slide the whole box down the stairs. That B vent would never pass here in Calif...just say'n. Connect an air hose to the hot side of heater... and a garden hose to the cold (or drain spigot, but it's usually clogged) and force 90% of the water up and out of the basement in record time. I never fill the heater with water until the pilots lit... in case it has a bad control valve or pilot system... It's happened twice in my 40 yr. career. If the home owner has little kids I make a few windows in the box and the mothers tell me they played in it for days. Nice vid bro.

I see some of these other apprentices on you tube, on the job for a year standing around watching and still having to be told righty tighty, lefty loosey.

    I've hauled a lot of hot water tanks by myself I take two 12-in black iron nipples screw them on the top of the tank so that when it's on the cart got something to hang on to then transfer them to the old tank it helps get that out too. Now at my age I get help it's not worth the lousy Almighty dollar to pull my back out

  • @kenc.9067

    Good on you for taking the old tank. Real professionals do. Half assers leave the tanks behind. Probably explains why you see so many old tanks left behind in rentals; landlords don't want to pay a professional.

    I like working in the basement by myself, but one time I had to work in the basement of Willowbrook psychiatric hospital on Staten Island, they supposedly shut it down in around 87, but it wasn’t it was partially operating, that basement ran for miles and it had old rooms connected to it that I had to walk through and there was no lights and there was still toys and chairs with dust and dirt all over them and books still open on the desk, you can hear big steel doors, slamming, probably a mile away through these tunnels, it was the dead of winter and I had to work late. I was only a helper and there was a leak that had to be fixed and I got volunteered, creepiest place ever been in, I quit and became a cop
