What side hustles have you personally seen work pretty well?
Corporations taking over side hustles seems to be screwing over people, since they take such a large cut and flood the market for that hustle.
But the ones I've personally seen people do that work pretty well (in USA) are:
Stay at home mom watching another kid (legally dubious depending on state/situation. But I ain't no narc.)
A neighbor of my mom's sends out a menu saying what she plans on cooking each night for that week, and for $X will deliver you some as well (Legal in Utah due to special laws, other states could be dubious. )
People who go pick up free furniture that is pretty trashed, and then refurbishes it and sells it. Or people with trucks who are like "Will deliver furniture for $30 in X area" is also pretty life saver for people without cars/trucks. Was able to get a super cheap/nice coach because of this.
People who just flip free stuff or stuff from thrift stores without doing any improvements annoy me greatly though. We broke and you're just driving up the price!
None of these generate a ton of cash, but I like that they take very little up front cost, aren't disruptive, and mostly take labor.
So what side hustles have you seen work out?
You're viewing a single thread.
Furnace/water heater replacement.
Can low water pressure in the whole house be attributed to a bad water heater?
No.
Ours was exactly that, the oulet and inlet pipes in the tank corroded badly. Cold pressure fine, hot pressure was flow restricted
Only if you have good pressure on cold water but weak pressure on hot.
Whole house suggests an issue with the supply line, for example an old galvanized pipe which is filling with rust deposits.
Low water pressure is usually a sign of low water pressure.
European here without education for a plumber, just barely scratched the profession for a few years.
Low water pressure occurs in bigger complexes with a pipe to small for the consumers. The water pressure in suburbans and cities comes directly from the local water station.
If you have issues with this, there are special armatures for low water pressure.
The cheapest improvement is replacing the water disperser with a current one.
Other then that, one could install a pump to improve the water pressure, but these things are expensive and have high maintainability costs due to pumping drinking water, not water in a heater pipe.
Perhaps your pipes are too wide.
Bad PRV (Pressure Reducing Valve). They only last so long. If you have high water pressure (over 120psi) coming in they last a few years tops. If that’s the case, get one with 2 diagrams and it’ll last you 10 years at a minimum.
