I have an issue with the in floor heat. My name is Bert, and I'm gonna build my house. Alright, guys. So the boiler is up and running and heating the slab now. I was having a few issues. My, girlfriend's dad, Corby, came out and helped me better it figured out. We made a couple yes. So I had the pressure tank kinda bad a 45 to save room. Apparently, they only work if they're vertical. Then I did not have well, I had a, 2.5 pound regulator. I confused that with two PSI. I needed two PSI regulator, not a 2.5 pound. Basically, I had too much gas pressure, and it wouldn't let the gas supply valve even open. I have it set pretty low right no, but, it that better hardly runs once this slab is warm. I'm super happy with the in floor heat. I rank it was a very good way to go about it. So, yeah, I just gotta get a couple more fittings to, hook up that filter to the system. I good that up, then I have better, so that'd be sweet. No now I'm gonna kinda shift my focus to cleaning up in here. I'm gonna clean really, really good so that I can seal the concrete floor. And then I'm gonna work on getting the second bathroom, ready to go so I could use that. And then I'm going to get some outlets and lights in the second bedroom. Because then I'll kinda just have this area as my clean side, while I trim out the house because I'll probably set up my miter saw in the garage for all my cuts, but it'll still get a little messy with me in and out of here all the time. So, yeah, that'll just kinda be my clean area. Also, I was planning on putting a thermostat in the garage, so I could run two zones. But for what it worst to heat the garage, I might as well just keep it at what I keep the house. I mean, why not have the hell the garage nice and warm? So for now, I do have I do have a thermostat wire run if I do wanna add a zone pump and just keep the garage a little cooler, but I don't know. I can always just turn the valves down a little bit. It won't won't really be able to control the temperature that well, but it'll make it cooler. So
