Agree, slow cookers are well insulated and have an internal heating element so you're not wasting energy out the coils/burner if that's how your stove works.

SquirrelyPSU posted:Hello dad chat, long time listener, first time caller (I do have a Weber tho): Just went under contract on a house with the VA loan - Getting the certificate of eligibility is not a problem. I'm still active so I had to get a letter signed by my commander (delegated to his staff), but all former members need to give the lender is a copy of their DD Form 215. Once you find a house and put an offer in your lender will handle the rest. Be prepared for a bunch of out-of-pocket expenses. Although they won't require a down payment, you'll still have to cover expenses and fees that can run over $5k. You'll also want a lender that's used to working VA loans so they don't screw you by forgetting to schedule the appraisal visit or something

I had a sewer scope done on a house I put an offer on as part of the inspection and it revealed a 1" horizontal offset at one of the pipe joints in the main sewer line and a couple areas of root growth. Since it was just a private inspection the guy wouldn't give me a quote to fix it or even a good estimate of the severity, but so far what I'm getting back from actual plumbers is that they want to run their own scope before giving me any kind of consultation. How the hell do I deal with this when the deadline for inspection negotiations is 2 days from now? Lean on the seller to figure it out and hope they don't say no?

Mr. Nice! posted:Does the house have a cement foundation? If they have to bust that up to fix/move pipes you're looking at a few grand just for dealing with the foundation not even counting the actual repairs needed or the costs of trenching up the yard. It'd either be out in the yard or (worst case) under the street in front, since the offset is located at 107 ft along the run. I have no clue if this is a serious potential problem or if the inspector is just being cautious. Here's what he said: "Offset noted in main sewer line at a joint in the pipe at 107 feet. The offset appears to be over 1 inch. This can allow solids or debris to collect in the pipe causing blockage. This can also allow water to seep into the soil causing further settlement."

Mr. Mambold posted:Isn't that the city's responsibility once it's left the property? Apparently you can have private sewer line going under the city street. The city is only on the hook for the city line. I do have a YouTube video of the sewer scope that I linked to in my quote requests. I'd hoped that the plumbers would look at it to give me a quote instead of just telling me to pay for another scope to show them the same poo poo. holocaust bloopers posted:Turn off smart TV poo poo asap.

Realtor recommended I get a sewer scope and yeah it's probably gonna be worth the $125 extra I spent on top of the home inspection. I'm looking forward to getting my hands dirty with home ownership but as a first time buyer I was thinking more along the lines of recalking the window seals and not digging a trench in the street and paying the city to divert traffic.

I'm almost a homeowner and man it feels weird. I posted before about the sewer offset issue I found - the initial estimate for the repair was $1800, but when the contractor went back to see exactly where the issue was and saw that it was under the sidewalk they increased it to $5000. The seller's covering everything before closing and I absolutely would've walked if they hadn't agreed to that. Get the sewer scope. $125 up front can save you a lot of money.

TBeats posted:I was thinking the same thing but didn't want to be the guy who rained on the parade. It's a sewer line. It was installed when the house was built and done in a perfectly acceptable fashion. The only time anybody even thinks to touch one is when it breaks. The inspector I got took 4 hours to look over the house, entertained all my questions, and helped me out a ton over the phone when I was working on getting estimates for the repair work. He even offered to talk to the contractors for me to tell them what he saw when looking at the home. Good dude. Tiny Timbs fucked around with this message at 21:59 on Jan 26, 2017 |

So how does it work when you hire moving help but provide your own truck (uhaul rental) and packing? Anything I should watch out for when hiring a company, and what are they actually liable for if they break my poo poo? I've only ever had the military move my poo poo and they covered everything, but this time I'm just moving across town.

Ok yeah, I've already packed all the small things in boxes and arranged for the UHaul rental so hopefully it'll be an easy loading/unloading job. The last movers I had complained when I offered them pizza so I dunno maybe I'll get some loving cold cuts and a loaf of bread for these fuckers

I've considered power line adapters but all the reviews say you only get like 10-30% of the performance that the manufacturer claims. A gigabit adapter might only get you 300 mbps even with perfect wiring.

Wood shouldn't bother it much, but pipes, ducts and big metal objects like fridges can. I used a wifi repeater for a while in my place and it was a decent solution - if you end up doing that make sure you get one with two antenna so you don't halve your bandwidth.
