Important Safety Tip: Blowtorches Are Not For Housecleaning!

New Posts

They call that permanent housecleaning.
 
A few years back there was a story about a guy who was told to remove some signs attached to gas pumps whose bolts had become rusty. His tool of choice? A blow-torch. What is it with these guys?
 
Oh jeez, that is too funny. No brains, I swear, no brains.
 
Also not good for defrosting frozen water lines. The outcome won't be as spectular but the repair bill might, especially is the seams become undone.

Oh, I don't know, my dad has been using a blowtorch to thaw water lines at their place since 1975. So far, so good! :D
(He leaves the hose hooked up w/ the water on throughout the winter.)

Your dad's using all the right precautions. Stay away from th water lines that maybe insulated. Long time Colorado Mountain resident. Oh the stories I could tell.
