I have looked through your videos but I have not seen anything pertaining to boosting water pressure to a 2nd or 3rd floor bathroom. Could you please post one if you have not already? Maybe I am not seeing it though

[AsktheBuilder]

@pashastookie Easy. Install a booster pump.

[pashastookie]

@pashastookie Well thats easy for someone who is a master plumber, but for a weekend warrior, do you think that is a feasible project with very basic plumbing skills?

[AsktheBuilder]

@pashastookie Possibly...... Just have the # of a great plumber handy if you get in trouble.

I want to post this to inform people of the speedyvalve by floodmaster to save them time and money...they have a video on you tube

[AsktheBuilder]

@SuperMichaelblake Thanks. But in going to your channel, it appears that you have no visible presence and you very possibly are a shill for them. If you had many plumbing videos at your channel showing us what you're talking about and proving that you are a plumber of some type, perhaps I'd allow your comment on other videos of mine. But you're invisible. No one knows who you are and why you'd be trying to promote this product. It doesn't pass the smell test.

the only reason i subscribed was because you got me at the end good one

Tim! - The buttom is on the bottom right of the video.

it took me hours to find it.

I kept looking up, where you pointed.

Anyway - keep up the good work.

I'm go search your videos for kitchen cabinets now.

@pashastookie

Go to a mechanical engineer who does plumbing design. Ask him if you can fix the pressure problem by upsizing your supply pipe and maybe your water meter. Tell him you'll take the field measurements needed for him to run the numbers. He'll probably charge you $150 - $250 for his time. If he says upsizing the pipe & meter won't do the trick, his fee will be a total loss. If upsizing will solve the problem, you save yourself the headache of having a pump forever.

I can see how subscribing could save you time, but how does it save you money? Just wondering.

[pashastookie]

@pashastookie great thanks for the advise!
