RE: Claim denied for lighting strike to motorhome?

What do they say? They say "no"
What do they do? Deny the claim.

RE: Tankless water heaters

I noticed that the OP was from Utah. Hard water is the death to on demand water heaters. The minerals in the water will plug up the tiny chambers in no time. I once had a plumber in AZ wanting to install one of those heaters in my home without a water softener. I told him no thanks. I had enough trouble keeping the deposits out of my conventional water heater.

RE: Protectant for hardwood cutting board stove topper?

Vegetable oil will go sour and rancid. Mineral oil is what should be used.

RE: fire extinguisher - fact or myth?

If they are mounted horizontally, the extinguishers will be much less likely to cake; just like required upon boats.

RE: No water coming through the Hot Water Line

Your water heater bypass valve is closed. Open it to allow water to enter your heater.

RE: How to properly caulk when two seams meet?

The only downside of Eternabond tape is the sticky edge will hold dirt so it may not be a great idea if installing it where it will be seen.

RE: Headlight restoration- Great results

A single sheet of 2000 wet/dry sandpaper will give you the same results and let you keep money in your pocket. I have been doing it for years in AZ and FL with remarkable results. A squirt of Aerospace protectant will finish of the job for years of clean lenses.

RE: Water Heater Relief Valve Leak

Perhaps nothing. Your valve may be defective or your water heater may be getting too hot and the valve may be doing what it was intended to do.

RE: Florida Toll-by-Plate invoice system

Sun Pass is the only way to go for turnpike travel. It's a one time fee of $25 for a transponder that can be moved from one vehicle to another, as long as each are pre-registered on the website. Another option is a $5 sticker transponder that is not moveable from vehicle to vehicle. One sets up an account with a minimum of $10 to be drawn from for toll.

RE: multiple rvs destroyed , UPDATE what happened

No doubt they will be checking for a friction fire. You know, when the payment rubs too hard on the due date.

RE: If you can't have fun at work, why do it?

I did it so I could make a LOT of money and retire at 44 with 26 years seniority in the steel industry. Full pension and medical too.

RE: litter throwing question

I threaten to just dump the litter on the floor and let them have at it. One little stinker will drop the worst smelling mess, dig around for a LONG time but leave the heap of stinkin' mess still on top for the whole household to enjoy.

RE: How will they get home?

If you've been to Florida in the summer you'll know that it's probably cheaper to buy the fuel to go back north than to run the AC down here. WAAAAY TOOOO HOTTTTT in the summer. :E
Heck, the summer is when it is gettin' just right. Us pharts wear a coat when the temp gets into the 50's.

RE: Columbus, GA.

I assume you are going for graduation? If so, there will be more than enough festivities to keep you busy. Family day, tours of the base, graduation, 3 day leave, etc. Any sightseeing will need to be done before or after your stay at Benning.
