New garage time!

What do you use for bait? The previous owner of my property left a large live trap and I've got some coons living under my deck I want to get rid of. I don't know that they're causing any damage but eventually my dog is going to dig under there to get to them. At my last place I had to take up some deck boards to rescue my moronic stuck dog.

I'm here to give plumbers an aneurysm.

It's been a while since I have done this, by my 6th solder I had the right amount of heat and solder, top right.

I like the yellow bottles better for copper. More heat than the blue bottles.

I didn't realize that. I'll be sure to convert to the yellow next time I refill.

One ore thing off the list. Heat pump hot water heater.

What a beast! How many gallons is that?

Only 65, but the top 2 feet are the heat pump, so that makes it bigger.

I added the return to the furnace. Not the prettiest, but it's in there and no leaks. I have a shutoff valve after the boiler, then the T junction, then the shutoff valve from the hot water tank. I'm working my way backwards.

Work had to stop as my wife wants to bathe my kid and apparently hot water is required for that. No navy showers I guess.

After this I'll have to drain hte system again, then cut in the supply line. Then run copper to the ceiling and over to the tank.

Plumbed up. Lots of shutoff's. Pressure tested and flushed out. Got the tank up on bricks. Just need electric and the drains.
