2/25/2026 Musk better keep in mind. just got quotation for furnace replace and install R802V1004A17UHSCAP price jump high to $8,923.00 after senior discount and manger discount plus metal chimney replace $3,383.00 Total $9,839.00. was told in 2005? got special replace program for mom the state contractor didnt install correctly caused pipes connection leaking problem. sales told many suffering it.
spouse told me why would contractor care but the cheapest way to make more money. the original chimney pipe was bigger, the contractor should replace with smaller chimney pipe. current house we just replaced in 2025 $5000(one stage), gas hot water tank 40gal $1800 (was $500-$600 in 2021?). when i inquired the sales quote the cheaper one stage model, he didnt have. the same unit on oline can buy
$3,024.15, does furnace installtion jump to (original $8923 - $3,024.15=$5898.85, after discount $6,448 - $3,024.15=) $3,423.88 ? i decide to contact the previous furnace brand company related whether can lower down installation fee and fix leaking connection problem.
the company sales#1 still interesting to give us a new quote (original was $5000 can somewhat analysis whether intruder but didnt show in quotation after worry police cant catch and water company declared hardly can reduce water fee if cause by intruder which still client responsibility) so he visited today too, he seems not knwoing the $5000 quotation didnt show job details. he used the Moisture Sensing Tool
3 times even i told him going to tear down but wont replace new dry walls as it would happen again by intruder(the psycho) spray water in our wood stairs and walls.

that when i found stairs carpet frequently was wet, and the sumpump power wire i used pre-renter left new necktie to hold in pipe in case drop to well which always wet too. spouse as usual ignored and denied the psycho stick to our houses.

i didnt know not just stairs carpet but also dry walls until 6/7 one pipe handler missing and sales told water spray to top cement wall near water pipes. I also notice the finished room dry wall on top half can see 水滴. 2/6 i examined pipes and dry wall, cement wall and wipped off some dry wall mold (just like washable black ink) didnt see any water and they were dried. after water pulled off.
didnt find any water in furnace, hot water tank, drier and washer machines pipes and walls except nearby stairs dry wall can see mole-like. ps 2/2 i did see nearby furrnace the dry wall colour became dark, spouse thought it were ashes. i didnt believe but didnt carry portable light to examine it.

today sales saw furnace pipe has water and the furnace itself water pipe came out water, isnt very strange after water puppled off 2/11-2/23 (2/24-2/25 took rest at home) didnt have any water just the day sales came then happened? same as 2/7 water pipe handler missing? this time the company gave wrong address to the furnace sales#3 so he parked in other neighbour house, i didnt suspect him. but felt weird the company had our renter and spouse name records made a mistake and she did notify the sales one hour earlier notify us. later the sales found the notice.

however after he left forgot put furnace metal door back and dropped 2 screwers on the ground. fortunately found them and screwed it in case the psycho get hurt then sue us. in usa you must be very carefully that intruder can do any bad things can run away but if get hurt then the house owner would be sued to pay the intruder hospital fees.

ps i already turned off furnace (seems hot water tank share the same gas pipe?) gas handler. didnt recive sales#1 new quotation.

ps poster : Moisture Sensing Tool I have water in my basement. My drywall is dry. Water I believe it seeping through the cement running down and then underneath my drywall. Is there a tool that could effectively see through the drywall to check for moisture? Found basic moisture meters but they look like you have to place some directly on the surface. I have 2 x 4 studs behind the drywall. I used a basic $50 moisture meter from Home Depot and my drywall is dry, but the cement floor is visibly wet. And the water seems to be coming from under the drywall.

--2/26/2026 our case after pulled off water and removed carpet the cement floor took a whole night most are dried no water on dry wall except 6/7 2 sales came, (next to utility room) finished room wall i saw 水滴 (it should be the psycho playing on 水枪) and 2/26 sales came then 水滴 found in furnace pipe. between 2/11-2/23 i worked never found any water in dry walls, pipes. certainly those water flood bottom dry walls were wet, and it suck water so better cut off dry walls 4 inch high. the best way is tear whole down. because the naked portion(cut off edges) easy release not good chemical-gypsum石膏. to me the most important is not caught mold smelling so focus on tore off dry wall papers those got [black ink like] and i did see 3 small area grew black hairs in lower [next to utility room] finished room dry wall , the weird is next day the hairs auto gone(seemed the psycho-related wiped off them, spouse declared the hairs itself disappeared due to no water so died away, i dont buy it).

i used 1:1 醋 + 水 spray on the mold area then wiped off(use squeezed sponge with clean water). before returned home also use [1:1 醋 + 水] washed my hands and use more water clean my hands. even so my 2 fingers skin got break and pain. cant but use bandage protect. better wear mask but most time didnt due to it kept moving up irritated my eyes. fortunately didnt feel sick.

i also use chisel平头凿子 用力 scraped water off from dry wall bottom woods beam, wood stairs which help it dry out earlier and not became rotten. due to black ink like on woods beam after scraped and wiped it didnt left black mark at all. the dry wall still can see light black mark. after tore off dry wall papers by chisel平头凿子. some times it happened due to 平头凿子 touched black-ink and forgot wiped off before use it again.

if not use basement then better not replace new dry wall but let it unfinished(can reduce property taxes) or make it as cement wall(better not add new cement wall for adding extra room). still remember in taiwan childhood frequently got 水灾, never got sick, didnt see molds(that is why cant tell whether mold look like washable black ink, if the mold grew black or white hairs then it is mold without doubt) and no need repairing walls except clean out the dirt water. all were cement walls?

searched [Drywall has poisen?] Drywall itself is not typically "poisonous," but drywall dust is hazardous and can cause severe respiratory irritation呼吸道刺激 and long-term health issues like silicosis硅肺 due to materials like silica二氧化硅, talc滑石, and gypsum石膏. While standard drywall is generally safe once installed, certain imported drywall from the early 2000s can emit sulfurous gases硫磺气体, causing health issues like headaches and asthma哮喘 气喘. ps never smelt 硫磺气体

如果地下室的水管破裂导致防水型石膏板被水浸泡了10天(our case 2/2-2/4 water valve turned off, 2/6, 2/7-2/9 pulled off water and 2/10 pulled off water in well)，那么这些石膏板‌极有可能已经严重损坏，必须更换‌，而不能仅靠修补。防水石膏板（也称耐水纸面石膏板）虽然在芯材和护面纸上都经过了防水处理，能有效抵抗空气中的湿气和短时的水溅，但它‌并非完全防水，更不能长期浸泡‌。根据国家标准，其吸水率要求不超过10%，但这仅适用于持续高湿度环境（如相对湿度不超过95%的卫生间、厨房），而非直接浸泡。

2/26/2026 yesterday after 2 sales left i tried to show spouse that under the front storm door one of brick was stolen last year or earlier that spouse refused to examine when i told him. surprised found it was fixed. i really hated the psycho or the family who ever fixed it. quite earlier also found a big hole on the wall in our upstair or else. when finally spouse willing to look at it the hole was patched cant find.

the only question is my spouse weird behaviour and why and who frequently stole our tools then some returned repeatedly. whenever we need they are not in our house. i also hate spouse wont explain but denied and declared no other person in our 2 houses. the psycho family must doing handyman-type related job.

yesterday i mentioned that he was broke because the cant be taught retard psycho.

i also inquired him again, who in 2012 moved near our old house that made him in a hurry to find another house and moved out. and why cant wait he retire then we move to far away other state. certainly he wont say anything.

quite earlier i suspect were his 2 nephews especially the elder one wanted to be priest but failed(not graduated), that very difficult find a decent job. but spouse told me not live in ILL. Gradually more and more suspect retard type kid and the only fit is neighbour who moved in 2012. ps 2/26/2026 suspect it seemed use our house training the reatrd son to learn how to do the handyman job? it also happen to our yard can see the burried films (protect from wild weeds but dont believe the myth it is a liar and made worse) on the top covered many stones junk dirt. after i removed dirty dirt, some stones and pulled off films then next year happened again. in 2025 told spouse it must stop that the dirty dirt higher and higher made cement walls wet and sidings infected. the wild weeds 粗的 root extended to under deck lands very difficult get rid off (this is why dont use films, without films when it grew up you can see and easily pulled off wild weeds) i really cant suffer the torture so quit or spouse must help. one of his sister(cancer died in 2013) called him stupid when i inquired his family stories due to he one side believed younger sister without knowing what she really is. i asked him why he declared others all borrowed money without return especially the lower IQ sister that he paied down payment bought a house for his parents then the sister didnt pay mortgage lost the hoouse. the died sister didnt buy health insurance for her 2 daughters, one of got sick in hospital he paied full amount.

the one lived with us when i forced them moved out as never pay a penny including utility fee but spouse paied their on line order books, TV movies (we didnt watch any that kind movies as he already broke cant monthly pay utility fees off) ... every now and then must force us go out so they can enjoy as house owner. she requested 50% of all our things. certainly i turned down. years later i began suspect whether she didnt ask 50% for herself but for the retard related. forced us go out because th reatard related came. however spouse did asked which her son i prfered i told him my sister-in-law story that my sister also inquired brother which her son he prefered to be his son. they both turned down. same as me. especially i knew their sons very poor at mathematics, elementary score was under 30. i did inquire spouse: do you believe they would be better than you(even he was broke) in the future? he answeared NO.

it is puzzle cant figure out what else spouse hided cant tell story caused such diaster and weird events to us without ending. 2 houses next to us neighbors their last name none is same as my spouse that his mom before married also same last name as his father. i even asked spouse did he ever donated his 精子(retard gene from his mom side) and was traced so must pay or previous girlfriends even ex-wife, he denied all.
