    Let's See Your Garage Dog

    Yes Dan that is true, your shoes/smell are a security blanket for him. And for others who mentioned shoe burglaries LOL. They also love socks as well. You really can’t fault them, because they just want you and love your smell.

    Sick of bathroom caulk getting moldy.

    What do you recommend cleaning the tile surfaces with, so that it does not damage any additional grout areas? I read that some harsh cleaners can weaken grout, not sure if this is true.

    Which sealant to use for 4/0 SER cable entry point?

    I love Vulkem and Dymonic FC. And that is exactly what I am concerned about is the ice and cold air coming in, being in Michigan. What do you use or recommend on the inside of the basement where the holes are? At least TimberMan hase a fitting for the hole where the cable come in, I have...

    Which sealant to use for 4/0 SER cable entry point?

    :ROFLMAO: Ok, will see how I can post it. I already encased the outside in some Grace Vycor to seal it from the chipmunks that constantly invade my area.

    Which sealant to use for 4/0 SER cable entry point?

    So there are no issues of it shrinking over time also? Can you tell me how it should be applied correctly? I know they did roll it in their hand to soften it.

    Which sealant to use for 4/0 SER cable entry point?

    I apologize in advance, because all of you have helped me immensely on my whole house generator installation, and you are waaayy smarter than I will ever hope to be. However, that duct seal putty is awful! They used it on the outside of my SER cable coming into my basement electrical panel. I...

    Which sealant to use for 4/0 SER cable entry point?

    Does the conduit go the whole way through and follow the cable? Or is that ring around the opening just to assist the cable through the hole opening? What is the name of that type of ring around the opening? I need to use one of those....

    Anything wrong with this genset installation? Can these wires be in romex?

    Just thinking about this area for the sealtite conduit penetration. I had purchased Proxicast prograde silicone tape 30mil for my camera connections. This is supposed to be waterproof and UV resistant. What if I wrap that around the area where the white caulk is? It is black and would also give...

    Thanks Kay! So I agree with the whole work over, but this is the 2nd time this has been redone. Anyway. I am going to keep the black ring. I usually have 3 large lattice screens there with climbing clematis that are beautiful. The chipmunks ate the roots,..just as well, I had to take them down...

    Anything wrong with this genset installation? Can these wires be in romex?

    I know Kay. I agree! they were lazy. They told me "they could not get EMT around the green cable box and there were other obstructions". I called BS, and have been dealing with this for 2 months. This was another company I paid to do EMT, but they talked me out of it. Screw it. I know EMT would...

    I also mentioned the plumber took one look at the valve near the generator, even before taking it off and said that is the wrong size it is too small and is restricting flow! Here is a picture of the valve opening,...it looks like a garden hose inside!🤬 It was worth it to pay the extra...
