@@OmarRodriguez-vl2tq I had to redo my tenants bathroom. She had a bath fitter that got water under it. The ptrap was galvanized and cracked on the threads. The pitch was flat like an airport. Bathroom demo and rebuilt in 10days flat!
Steve i love your attitude. Im an electrician in the northeast and you always gotta walk on eggshells with customers, and i hate it. I love how you go in and just run the customer so you can get the job done.
He would have had to replace all that galvanized regardless of inspector ot not or he could be responsible for future gas leaks if he would have tied into the galvanized
Usually, the women smell gas way better than the men. When a wife tells me she's smelling gas, and the husband says she's nuts, I listen to her. Usually find something.
i did some updating to our house now 5 years ago and in the process i found out that our incoming gas supply piping was severely under sized it was very interesting learning about how you size the pipe for the amount of gas the appliance will consume as well as learning about the 2 pound system with the regulators and learning all this from a master Plumber that I’ve known for my whole life was a huge privilege
Wow shes lucky that her house didnt blow up sky high , at least now its upgraded and cleaned up with the pipes tucked up in the rafters - nice job steve 👍🇺🇸
I just saw a video on RUclips about the gas piping mishap in northern MA where they didn't do a cutover properly and sent high-pressure gas intp homes....
should have kept the old pipe, added some fresh paint to it, hung it back up for the gal to use to hang her clothes, to keep her crap off the new pipe. Steve is laying pipe Mamma!
june 2014 tornado over my house big tree dropped on edge of 500 gallon propane tank stood it up vertical pulled copper up out of lawn kinks everywhere whole yard strong gas smell and 30ft away 25kw pole transformer & both powerlines from country road on the lawn i had to get to the tank shut off valve through smashed tree limbs or die trying tank gauge said 79% and dropping. sketchy shit
Last week I thought I smelled gas. I got one of those gas leak detectors from Amazon, and it showed me a union that was barely leaking. I called a plumber to look at it, but they wouldn’t come over until the gas company checked it out first. The guy from the gas company was great. He was able to tighten the union and stop the leak. I didn’t have to pay a plumber now! I offered the gas company guy some money, but he refused.
I've seen this in many basements. I know the people don't listen when you advise them to remove the clothes, so I've even thrown in a few free banghangers for people when I'm just there to change their meter.
Nice gas test. Sparks flying everywhere with no ignition, no liftoff. Momma no gas in those lines. Dead canary (or grandma) in the bell free though. Crazy stuff. Great work Steve Lav
When I plumber says WOW, it means somethin! Steve quote. She sounds really sharp. I had an issue like this at work. I told boss lady there was a dilute 'mercaptan', smell from back of chicken fryer, she didn't listen. They called the Fire Department, and the dummies said it was under the skillet do dab, but they later found out it was the connection to the fryer. I knew it all along! Anyway, Listen to the little guy sometimes! the nose knows! ha!
My mom did the exact same thing, putting clothes on every pipe in the basement, gas, water, electical cables, it didn't matter, I told her the same thing! At least most of them were on water lines, so it was just a flood waiting to happen as well! 🤦♂🤷♂
Great entertainment and show tonight Steve. Love your content. Your one hell of a knowledgeable dude. I’d be elated to work under you as an apprentice.
Every Joe Homeowner needs to know how to turn off utilities to their house. Bummer. The gas is an easy one if you fast enough to get it done safely. At least its outside.
Old galvanized pipe would flake and clog up valves which is why old galvanized is not recommended and should be ripped out and redone. The new modern galvanized pipe doesn't do this so it's safe to use.
that's weird everywhere i go gas is always black iron I heard the flakes of galvanizing clog the gas nozzles they are replacing our mains with green plastic pipe or something out in streets after a big explosion from an underground leak.
@@pb7379-j2k black iron is the trade name for it since it is threaded soft malleable pipe for gas there is pipe called black steel that is welded and stronger for various uses.
@@pb7379-j2k Not bullshit. Old galvy pipe would flake and clog the lines. The newer modern galvy no longer does that and why it is still being used but its reputation already seems to be ruined forever for some.
Ill get behind you about sharkbites, none of those for me. Propress is just fine though. It's like any plumbing really, install it wrong and you'll have problems. It's a learned skill to do it properly. I've personally not had a need to touch it though, it's expensive for just a home owner.
My maternal grandparents and I nearly succumbed to a natural gas leak in their house in 2001. Cause of the leak was the mercury diaphragm in the meter (which was inside) ruptured overnight and filled up the ENTIRE place. Called the fire department, and their CO and gas monitors went off 15 feet from the front door, literally chooching Momma! They said if the house exploded, the whole block would have been gone, but luckily none of us suffered any aftereffects. Same day, the gas company put a new meter (this time outside) in, and a leak test was done to which it passed that day. June 28th, 2001, in Wantagh, NY, a day I'll never forget.
Explains why I never see inside meters anymore. My house used to have one, before I owned it, but it got moved outside when the lines were replaced on the street, and the supply line was moved.
@@OnusofStrifeI still have an inside meter to this day but only because I am getting rid of gas to go to oil. Don't want the gas company to ruin my 200+ year old, 5 foot wide stone foundation and I don't like having gas anyways. I like oil better and the price difference isn't worth it for me.
Holy shit, that’s some scary shit there! One things for dam sure, every piece of pipe in that house needs to be changed! This is one of those all or none I’m out of here situations because one thing I’ve learned is that once you start messing with a section of pipe you can cause a leak further down the line. It’s bad enough having to fuck with gas lines when you replace an appliance. I once caught the wife hanging a couple clothes hangers off the gas line, needless to say it won’t happen again. NOTHING touches the fucking gas lines, NOTHING! And walking into a house with a gas leak, that’s some fucked up shit right there. Been in that situation a couple times, and both times I called the gas company first and had them come out. I of course shut the main off at the meter, luckily they were outside. But if you want to get you nerves racking and your blood pressure up through the roof, go ahead and deal with that shit! It’s definitely one of those shit your pants moments. Seen a couple houses that blew up because of a gas leak, and I can tell you this, the whole fucking house looked like a pile of match sticks. Sorry went off on a tangent, but this brought back some fucked up memories. Stay safe out there, and if your ever called to a gas leak situation like this, DO NOT ENTER! Call the gas company and let them deal with clearing the house of gas and making sure it’s safe to enter, not worth risking your life over someone else’s dumb shit!
Dang good job Steve, hop it all passes inspection, but I'm sure it will! Kick ass video, you saved her ass! Keep us posted and keep the videos coming ☝️👍💥👌🫵
I remember her. Husband did not leave his retirement to go to her after he died. She was worried about the furnace repair bill. That bill was pennies compared to what this is going to be. Going through bankruptcy. I hope Steve cashes that check really fast.
you should cap the oil tank fill pipe so they don,t fill her basement with oil by mistake ,I am sure that tank is leaking by now if it is abandoned as long as the age of that furnace
Beautiful install Steve...it'll be there doing it's job and NOT LEAKING 100 years from now. Out of curiosity, is black pipe required by code in your area? I see some installs using that flexible yellow gas line but am unsure how commonly it's used to pipe an entire house
Black pipe is the traditional material. The new yellow flex can be used for the whole house but is not the best for cost or reliability. I have seen plenty of examples of leaking fittings on those installs. I trust black pipe more than a flex product anyway, any day..
in the Northeast ( I am in Connecticut myself ) we use all black pipe for gas. You only see the yellow stuff at moveable appliances. Not really any seismic concerns here so hard pipe is how its done.
so, what is the reason they don't want galvanized on gas? I heard it was so flakes of the galvanizing don't go through the piping and clog the nozzles in appliances is that true?
Do you ever worry about or mention the abandoned oil tanks you come across? I’ve heard of people where the oil company accidentally delivers 500 gallons into a basement where the tank is either disconnected or rusted to oblivion.
I know someone that had a good tank and an old pipe capped off with duct tape and cardboard. Delivery guy pulled off all the cardboard and duct tape and pumped 200 gallons into a dirt basement. The oil company's insurance paid for it all.
Wow brings back memories of the Ridget 500 cut n thread. Ya galvi has been ng for yrs. With the start total all btus on each appliance and run accordingly. I remember doing my 1st total gas rip n replace in Norwell yrs ago. Looks good Steve the good ole fashion way, work it n earn it. Yrs ago it was 25lbs for 24hrs before inspection. Keep on gettem kid.
Well, you won’t believe what I experienced yesterday. Apparently, a mile from my house, some imbecile was using propane to heat his house, because he couldn’t afford to pay a natural gas bill, a low income single 70 plus year old. He had God knows how many tanks of propane in his basement. His house exploded at 6:00 AM, my folks and I were asleep, I in a deep sleep. My mother and father heard what sounded like a bomb going off, and their bed moved slightly from the seismic shock. The homeowner was inside the house when it burst, sending a column of flame skyward. The house collapsed into the basement, and a neighboring home had its windows blown out, with occupants asleep inside. The homeowner amazingly survived, crawling out of the flaming ruin with only minor injuries, yelling to call 911, before passing out. He’s currently in the hospital, and who knows what his insurance will cover, if he has any, he lost everything. I’ve been by that property countless times on my way to high school, and now work, all that’s left is a smoldering ruin. I live in Ann Arbor, MI, so the news reports will show dramatic footage.

Wow! We could have been reading about this one on the news. Wild that she just got a gas detector.
Almost at 200K. Way to go Steve. Glad to follow you for many years.
I knew once the inspector was coming that you were going to have to change all of yhat galvanized pipe & fittings.
Nice job.
He would have had to replace all that galvanized regardless of inspector ot not or he could be responsible for future gas leaks if he would have tied into the galvanized

I’ve worked as a gas service tech for 13 years and I’ve never seen something like this. Of course we don’t have basements in texas.
just one thought I had. when the pipe falls it unloosens, leaking gas from thread.
Steve did a good job. It's been awhile since he posted any big gas piping jobs. He posted a lot of gas jobs when the channel first started.
My mom did the exact same thing, putting clothes on every pipe in the basement, gas, water, electical cables, it didn't matter, I told her the same thing! At least most of them were on water lines, so it was just a flood waiting to happen as well! 🤦♂🤷♂
Good work! You may complain a bunch. But, you sure do care about doing the right thing for your customers. I know they appreciate it!
Half the fun is listening to what Steve is muttering during the job...We have all been there!
My father found out he lost his sense of smell when he had a tenant in his office building say they had a gas leak. He bought a gas detector.
Unbelievable.Well it isn't going to leak no more!
How did that gas line pass inspection back when it was installed?
maybe it was done before rule against using galvanized or somebody added on to it over the years.
Lucky the furnace don't have a pilot flame.
it did have a pilot
@@stevenlavimoniere Wow..... This makes it even more spooky!!
I think my Dad used a peice of gas pipe for a closet rod, but it doesn't have gas running through it.
I did tha too. A flange on each end bolted to a 2x4. No gas running through it.
3/4 Black gas pipe is very strong, can hold a lot of weight
Watching the threading machine work is so satisfying.

That's a clean work. Hope u get all the money u deserve, You are a good guy.
Here in New Jersey the gas company upgraded our gas main and they moved my meter from the basement to outside. All new piping was galvanized.
Old galvanized pipe would flake and clog up valves which is why old galvanized is not recommended and should be ripped out and redone. The new modern galvanized pipe doesn't do this so it's safe to use.
More pipework in that basement than in the Titanic engine room.
When I was a serviceman for a gas co. in Western Pa., we did inspections around the clock. Guess the co. in your area has banker's hrs.
he probably has to wait for city inspector then he oks the job for the gas company to turn it on. the city needs those permit fees.
The death wheel keeps her quiet lol.
Nice clean install, Steve. Good work!
At 16.27 he just ended the conversation right there he had enough of her waffle!!

Women & their clothes she was lucky!Another quality video Steve
Almost a country song: husband died, bankrupt, and house blew up. Wonder how the dog is!
Good grief, that woman is lucky. I wonder how old that house is as the basement walls were crumbling away. I hope it passed the inspection.

How many of these new hacks would have used those garbage press fittings? Love to see Steve doing it right!
Wow! She could have been gassed out while taping that pipe. The good lord was looking out for her that day.
