were they working fine with just one transformer?

They were working but not fine.  They were overheating and splitting the side of the LED fixtures.  On average, only getting about 1.5 years out of the fixture.  At about $1k each for replacement, that gets rather costly.

I'LL ALLOW IT!

This is work, here is this customer’s pool.



Most high end hotels don’t even have a set-up this nice .  Drains into a surge tank on 3 sides of the pool and the water recirculates up.  Same with the spa, except it overflows the entire perimeter at deck level.  Hard to see in this pic but it is to the left of the upper half of the blue umbrellas.

I love going to this client as there is always something to address with all the equipment they have.

Thanks AST. Always appreciate you and your crew greasing the zerks in our old barn.

They have close to that in just equipment and plumbing alone.  Closer to $500k with all the structure, decking, and tile.

Can I replace my own hot water heater? I want to go to a tankless one I think.

Electric or gas? Challenge on electric is pulling the wire to it. Challenge on gas is the vent.

Gas.  Maybe I can make my own vent.

[IPA4Me]

Can't vent into appliance chimney. Needs to be sidewall. Do you have clearance to punch through an exterior wall?

Chingon, get one that is the same height.  That way you may only need to uncouple the C/H connections and disconnect the gas/electric fittings.
Remove old unit and install new one.  Easy/pleasey.

LOL  the main thing to do first is to shut off water and gas valves or or open circuit if electric.

Tank vents are not the same as tankless vents. Metal vs PVC. Natural draft vs forced combustion. GTFO.

It’s a tankless job but somebody’s gotta do it

I just opened a new stud finder. I laughed thinking about my dad’s cheesy joke, then immediately tested it out on myself.

Some builder tried to supply 11 LED lights to a fountain off a single transformer so here I am, doing the work properly with 3 transformers.

That junction box and all the conduit going out is a goddamn lollers and a mess (I know you're coming in after the fact but gross)

How many watts is each LED fixture? 300VA doesn't seem insanely small for 11 LEDs.
