⏱️⏱️Chapters⏱️⏱️
00:00 We're finishing up a job someone else started
00:10 They called to have him explain it and then wanted to just have us fix it
00:26 First thing he sees is the a/c has leaked more than once
01:00 There's a coil here that freezes up
01:22 Has a plastic overflow pan, but not very big
01:35 Need to clean the a-coil at least once a year
02:02 We recommend you keep the a/c clean for it to run good
03:07 First thing is to take off the door, so it's not in the way
03:56 Quick tip on how to fix doors not working, bent hinges
04:37 Easy way to make the place better
04:50 Next we're going to make a starting point to pull the bad floor out
05:10 They put the linoleum down before the walls at the factory
05:26 We're going to replace it with house type. You can put house type materials in the mobile home
05:51 There are always obstacles, want to watch for water and electric lines
06:12 Want to run a shallow, long cut with the sawzall
06:48 Have an oscillating saw, which is cheap and we keep finding more uses for
07:15 Pulling the toilet up
07:51 You can take a hacksaw to get the nuts off
08:06 Want to take the lid off, and then best place to put the toilet is in the tub
08:20 If you try putting in another room, the trap can spill water
08:43 Things you want to keep in mind when working. If you break the top, not likely to be able to replace it.
09:11 The rusty bolts aren't always because of a leak
10:29 Cut the bolts off and ready to move the toilet
10:52 When you get the toilet up you want to plug that hole with something while you're working
11:20 This floor vent is smaller than usual
11:34 A lot of times if you're losing a/c or heat it will be because this is loose. Easy fix
12:20 We use screws, never staple the vents back in like the factory does
13:04 We've taken a sawzall and cut under the wall at an angle to avoid lines
13:32 This wall is a little difficult because floor joist is just under the wall
14:00 With flooring, sometimes you can cut it in the middle and take it out in big chunks
14:20 Putting in the floor supports
14:57 How to pull up floor supports that are down
15:53: The ductwork is odd, not something we've seen before
16:25 So, we need to support the floor there to make sure the ductwork isn't smashed
17:09 That plastic barrier is why you don't have to have a vapor barrier on the ground under a mobile home
17:32 If you want to hold water under your house, put plastic on the ground
17:57 Mobile homes have the vapor barrier against the house, holding the insulation in
19:00 Where we're putting the support and why
19:30 Measured and cut the 2x6 for under the cabinet
21:00 Supporting the entire area where the ductwork is
21:42 Pre-drilling the area
22:43 Ready to lay the plywood
23:06 Want to run the plywood across the two bys, not with them
