Alright faggots.

**ASK A PLUMBER ANYTHING**

Yep. Continuing on from last night.

Because I'm as bored as fuck.

If you ask the right question you may get some very interesting greentexts.

If you ask a new question you will get new greentexts. (You know.... O.C. That one thing the board is lacking)

Also general plumbing advice.

If you appreciated the advice you were given, reward me with tits.

I like tits.

>>732226711

'cause pants aren't made to be bent over in. You bend over, your body rolls forward, and the curve of your arse moves to suit.

Physics mate. It sucks, but whatever, you give up after a while.

When you spend your life bending over throughout your job, you just end up not giving the slightest fuck.

You should know, you've loitered many public toilets in your time...

Any cool plumbing tech you've heard about?

I can tell why you're not a master plumber like that guy a few weeks ago, he was really funny and cool.
>>
>>732227242

On the horizon for plumbing codes is more and more changes so they can sell new books every two years. The government, as they fucking do every time, privatised the industry so now the industry makes money out of changing codes that don't need to be and should never have been changed. To sell books. To make money. Fuck the PIC.

No new plumbing tech. Apparently the drain liners are still cancerous as fuck. Like, literal cancer. Like, trap thread cancer.

Nothing to know about sewers. Everything from your house flows out of 100mm pipe. Everything in the easement is a fuck off massive drain that's engineered since 1900s to take a certain amount of water. These low flush toilets have really fucked them and they're starting to dry up and crack.

Oh the govt privatised them too, so they're not gonna be repaired any time soon.

>>732226632

My toilet is having issues with the flush mechanism. It's one of those crappy things with the two buttons atop the tank, one for a light flush and another for a heavy. I've lifted the lid and it looks like a simple lever mechanism on the end of the buttons attatched to a metal wire, which is rather slack.

I've lifted the physical mechanism to empty the tank and it all works well enough, granted it isn't resetting automatically as the tank fills, though that could be down to me lifting it too high.

Any advice?
>>
>>732227685

Now hang on brave anon.

I think you'll find I'm the exact same bloke.

Just haven't had any interesting requests yet.

Not plumbanon, but my dad was a plumber, and I worked with him for years. Most plumbing jobs aren't shit related at all, and the ones that are are never bad. It's just replacing black iron with pvc or re piping something to be more efficient. The grossest shit I've seen was the drain on a washer, the pipe clogged, and we had to cut it, and it was absolutely filled with rotten bullshit, no idea what it was.
>>
>>732227823
Forced you to work for him? Interesting way to get into a job. Since you say owed, I assume it is payed off, so why don't you get into a better line of work?

I got offered a job as a plumber's assistant simply cause he sucks at computers and doesn't want to do all the paper work,
and he knows I'm good at both, plus I have past experience plumbing since my dad was an
all-around handyman and I went with him on odd jobs.

My question is, should I pursue it? I don't plan on being a plumber my whole life, but I heard that it pays like, $15 an hour or something, and I'm making minimum wage bussing tables right now.
>>
>>732228093

Mate, I started my apprenticeship in 2001 at the rate of four dollars a fucking hour.
>>
>>732228084
Perhaps it is just me, but I find plumbing in general to be working with a lot of disgusting materials. The black fluids in the toilet tank especially.

>>732228107

Do your drains ever gurgle when you use them?

Are you the master plumber from a few weeks (months? I forgot) ago that was funny and cool? Because it doesn't seem like it.

Besides, what's the worst that can happen to posting a photo of my toilet? How will it harm me if some sick fuck on the internet happens to jerk off to my shitter?
>>
>>732228175

Yes, absofuckin'lutely.

Learn how to do the plumbing, learn how to do the paperwork, and when you get sick of that fucking cunt ripping you for all you're worth, disappear, leave him in the dust and start your own business and take all his clients.

Because cunts like that are all the same, using fuckbags.
>>
>>732228175

Make sure you get an apprenticeship though.

If you walk out of there without an apprenticeship your book keeping skills are worthless.
>>
>>732228252

Yeah, that's me.

You haven't insulted me enough to warrant one of my barrages.

You haven't asked any fun questions to warrant greentexts.

All I've been asked so far are plumbing questions and I've responded, brave anon.

Sage away mate. No skin off my dick.
>>
>>732228335
Yeah, that's basically what my dad said. Except the whole stealing his customers part. Seems like a nice guy, but the biggest fucking flake I've ever met. Keeps telling me about all these jobs he has and if I wanna help in my spare time for some extra cash, and then I hear nothing from him and a week later he's like "naw they cancelled on me"
>>
No one still asked if he got ass during the job?
Well then, plombanon, did you ever had head/hj/ass while on the job?

>>732228320
I'd hope not, but you seemed ready to hand over your personal data to someone who could backtrace you and blackmail you.

>>732228272

Been reading "Kenobi" by some star wars writer, wasn't bad, was actually pretty good considering.

I'd recommend you read Robin Hobb, however. All of the books, back to back.

And when you run out of that read Trudi Canavan.

Also on the list are Sara Douglass, Terry Brooks, Terry Goodkind, Frank Herbert.

And if you haven't already done so read ALL of Terry Pratchett. Before you even sniff the other books.
>>
>>732226632
Do you ever regret choosing plumbing instead of the glorious king of trades (electrician)?

Also might as well make it open night for trades. Sparky here, ama.

Alright anon, here's a quick explanation.

Just pour a bit more water down to stop smells, but not enough that it gurgles.
>>
>>732228554
thats actually a rether neat list of good authors...
Good on you, i just finished my last Pratchett and im really starting to miss the fucker.
>>
>>732228296

Yes brave ameranon, we do indeed.

Although everything's turned to plastic water pipe now because it's cheap and shit, and in order to make up the price they upped the price of fittings, so you're fucked either way.

I still prefer copper.

Yes, the studor vent is fucked, replace it.

It's obviously stuck in the open position, just pull it out and buy a new one.

>>732228457

TL:DR

>>732228564

Yes mate, in some regards, because sparkies pretty much run the world.

They can walk in and be "all your wires are fucked an need replacing" and nobody can argue.

But on the other hand, I don't have to spent ALL my time under houses and in ceilings.

And for that, I'll take the paycut any day.

Also, I totally endorse this ask a sparky anything, as long as you are also willing to greentext, brave Sparkanon ;)

Okay so my pump and most of my copper burst this winter.

I thought you were a genuine anon to start with, and maybe just misguided, but fuck me, it's kind of disconcerting to find out that you are not only the worst troll in human history...

My guess is that the wire itself has likely become disconnected from the main mechanism. In that case it'll likely be a replacement job :/

We haven't had anti siphon traps since they were made of brass.

We improved our plumbing and have never had those pieces of shit for sale in our country since.

Out of curiousity anon, is that SS or Chrome?

Haven't seen crimp fit chrome here, but I don't do plant rooms.

Either way your spaghetti junction is godlike in the skillz dept.

Bravo.

I'm maint, I couldn't even fathom doing that sort of job.

>>732231522
You can, but it's not a wise idea. They stick to pipes so fucking bad. You'll end up having to pay a plumber to snake them out of there, and then watch as your missus vehemently denies ever flushing them, only to have the process repeated when the plumber visits 3 months later.

>>732231618
Now calculate that into square kilometers and do that little funny dance you do to entertain the adults when your pants are wet at the front.

>>732231638
Know the feeling mate, am a maintenance plumber. Have all the knowledge of everything from modern day to 70 years prior, had to pay through the nose for every diff tool for every diff variety of fitting/connection/pipe/gas/etc., have to know more than every other variety of plumber, and how to do each of their jobs too.

Paid the least of all plumbers.

>>732231657
Yup. Crimp has taken over solder now, even on massive high rises.

That scares me because it only has a 20 year warranty. Done a 100mm copper weld once and was satisfied it'd last forever, now the thought of pipes bursting from crimp fitting holding a header tank on a 80 story building gives me shivers.

>>732231730
Nah, you're not right, you're just stubbornly repeating yourself.

That's what tards do.

It's why your windows are so clean.
>>
>>732231638
What country you in bud? I've never heard of automaticians. Sounds like a sweet role though. 70 amps seems a bit odd to be a limit considering a mere 30 milliamps is enough to kill someone. In Australia sparkys are required to pass tests and apply for a license prior to doing electrical work. The difference between us an engineers who know shitton of electrical theory is our role focuses on making electrical shit safe to use and compliant with the legal standards.
>>

Aus sparkies are held up to high bloody standards.

So, our water and sewage bill is twice as much as the previous bill and nothing has changed. I checked the water meter with everything off and it wasn't moving. What gives? I've checked for leaks, made sure the toilets weren't running, etc. Is the water company just fucking me?

Those motherfuckers. Those dirty kikes charge me three times as much for the sewage as they do for water.

Also, my water heater sounds like someone is trying to beat its way out of it. I was told these are calcium deposits that can be drained out of it, but it sounds like they're the size of baseballs. The water heater is 13 years old. Should I even waste my time with it, or just get a new one?

Automatician is such a weird profession that everyone has their own name for it.
Basically whenever you have an automated task, like an pneumatic valve that controls flow to a tank, the automatician is the one that is responsible for the control system, we are in between the plumber, the mechanic and the sparky. It is a profession thrown together for an immediate need since sparkies don't know shit about physics and plumbing.
The first case of modern automation was the V-1 flying bomb, where a jet engine could reach a target without human input.

The last plumber we had round seemed like he doesn't believe in PTFE tape, as such I had to fix four leaking isolators on compression connectors. Is it normal for folks not to need PTFE on compression joints or was my plumber just a dick?
>>
>>732233536
Yes
>>
>>732234115
You don't use tape on compression fittings, it doesn't seal anything.

You may use it to "lube" the threads so you can get it tighter to deform the compression collet.
