I personally have not installed any. I have hooked it up. Usually the tile guys already have it in and I fish the leads to the tstat and run the power and make the connection. Sorry I could not be of more help.

I am going to have to look into that heat gun @theamguy
My tool of the day was a cordless OMT I used it to cut in a box to add an outlet in a kitchen. I was able to make nice clean cuts through the back of a cabinet and the Sheetrock behind it to put in a cut in box. -

No story really. I am just particular about my tools and such. I like things put back where they go, ie my recip saw. I also have a case for my blades and when I am done cutting I put my blades back it the case. It allows me to keep track of what I have and what I need. But The biggest issue was him draining my batteries and not putting them on…[Read more]

Tool of the Day was a hack saw. My apprentice lost the privilege of using my recip. Saw. So I figured he can cut by hand until he buys his own.

Yesterday I was working in a house and the guy that built it was an engineer. He over engineered everything I have never seen anything like it. The walls, at the least the exterior walls were 2×6 Steel studs. I had to go in the attic and the roof/trusses was red iron. It was not a big house. 2000 sq. ft.
