Your home's and Industry's plumbing system has variety of valves found at various points

along the water pipes that allow you to turn off the water during emergencies, or when

you need to makes repairs or upgrades.

Shutting off the water is often the first step of many plumbing projects.

Locating and turning off the appropriate water shut off valve is therefore, very important.

In this video we will go to learn Different Type of water Valves.

If you like our video, so please subscribe Our Channel Learning Engineering.

Ball Valve.

A ball valve is normally a rather large metal valve usually featuring a lever handle.

It is designed for quick turn-off, since the valve opens and closes full with a short 1/4

turn of the lever handle.

This is the type of valve often seen at the main water shut-off for the home & industry.

Gate Valve.

A gate valve describes the mechanism by which the valve is opened and closed.

To turn a gate valve on or off, a circular handle is turned to rise or lowers a metal

gate inside the valve body.

When the valve is off the gate blocks the flow of water.

Globe Valve.

From the outside, a globe valve resembles a ball valve, with a slightly bulbous metal

body.

However, unlike a ball valve, a globe valve is designed to allow variable adjustment of

water flow.

Inside the valve, there is a baffle with a water flow port running through it The handle

operates a plunger with some sort of washer or seal on the bottom; as the handle closes

the valve, the plunger moves down against the water-flow port and partially closes it

off.

Angled Fixture Shut-Off Valves.

Individual fixtures all should have some form in individual shut-off valves that control

water to only those fixtures.

This allows water to be shut off for small repairs or replacements to the fixture itself

without interrupting water flow to other areas.

These fixture shut-off valves can take many appearances, but one that is very common is

small silver-colored valve with an oval handle with ribbed edges for gripping.

Straight Fixture Shut-off Valves.

A close relative of the angled fixture shut-off is a straight shut-off which operates exactly

the same way, but is intended for use where the water flow can run straight to the fixture.

It's very often used where a water pipe comes up out of the floor rather than out from the

wall.

Stop-and-Waste Valve.

A stop and waste valve is a key irrigation fitting to help keep sprinkler lines free

from freezing in the winter.

The stop and waste valve is turned on and off with a meter key and when it is in the

off position it will automatically drain any water in the line.

Check Valves.

The water moving through your plumbing should only travel one way: from the supply lines

and out through a fixture, or from a drain to the sewer main.

To assure a one-way flow in the event of a "cross-connection", a check valve is necessary.

Butterfly Valves.

Butterfly valves are not particularly beautiful (it's pretty disappointing, we know).

In fact, they look a lot like any other valve.

The butterfly moniker refers instead to the mechanism inside, essentially a disc that

rotates by handle turns; this of course means that flow is reduced through the valve.

Diaphragm Valve.

A diaphragm valve is similar to a gate valve in that there is a wheel or knob that moves

an element in the valve fitting, which limits the flow of water.

In a diaphragm valve, the element is a diaphragm that settles down over a saddle, thus stopping

water flow.

Pressure Balanced Valve.

Pressure balanced valves are used to maintain a constant temperature of water in domestic

showers or bathtubs.

A diaphragm within the valve allows the operator to set mixing of hot and cold water; however

in the event of a pressure drop of cold water (for instance, if a toilet nearby is flushed),

the diaphragm will shift to limit an excessive flow of hot water.

Many jurisdictions require pressure balanced valves in domestic bathrooms and showers to

prevent accidental scalding.

Zone Valve.

Zone valves are used in hydronic heating and cooling systems to control the flow of water

or steam.

For instance, they may be provided in different rooms, different floors, or different dwelling

units so that each space can have local control over the heating or cooling.

In most applications, zone valves are electrically controlled and are connected to a thermostat

so that automatic control is achieved.

Locking Valve.

Almost any type of valve can be locked to avoid accidental or intentional opening or

closing.

However, valves with lever-type handles allow for more secure locking control.

Locking valves provide aligning holes that a lock can be passed through to stop rotation

of the handle.

There are also locks designed to be attached to non-locking valves to prevent adjustment.

Solenoid Valve.

Solenoid valves are electrically controlled valves that can offer precise on/off control

via an automation system.

Solenoid valves are used in buildings where an automation system controls the plumbing

or HVAC system.

Another common use is in irrigation systems where a computer controls the watering times

or the amount of water to be applied.

Hormones & Pregnancy - Duration: 5:25.

This is Dr. Lam from DrLam.com talking to you about the issues of miscarriages especially

when it's repeated miscarriages in people who do not have adrenal fatigue syndrome type

symptoms.

Now, let's take a step back and understand first why people have miscarriages.

The conventional medicine approach usually is to make sure that there's no structural

problem with the fetus as well as no hormonal problems with the mother.

These are the most frequent causes of miscarriages especially in the first trimester when the

fetus is very, very small.

Now, miscarriages can be due to the body shedding unwanted and defective fetus or, commonly

and unfortunately, oftentimes misunderstood or passed over as insignificant is that it

can be due to insufficient progesterone.

Progesterone function is a very unique hormone.

It is a hormone that is, as the name implies, necessary for progestation, which is the process

of keeping the baby in the uterus in a healthy state.

Without adequate amount of progesterone, the fetus will not survive.

This is just as simple as that.

In fact, during the first trimester, progesterone level in the body gradually rises to very,

very high levels within the first 12 weeks.

If this rise in progesterone is insufficient for whatever reason, then a miscarriage will

occur.

Now, in the case of adrenal fatigue, we know oftentimes there's an accompanying progesterone

deficiency or failure to be able to reach a high level of progesterone.

This could be due to many reasons, from a progesterone shunting process in the adrenal

glands as well as simply estrogen dominance, which is very prevalent in adrenal fatigue.

The summary, therefore, is that if the progesterone is insufficient, the baby cannot be kept.

Even though you may not have signs of adrenal fatigue syndrome typically, such as fatigue,

hypoglycemia, insomnia, and low exercise capacity, some people simply have the weakest link in

their system as the fertility and reproductive department.

In which case, the progesterone level will be the most sensitive in terms of being deficient.

While it may not be deficient in normal people, the same level can be deficient in an adrenal

fatigue body even though the symptoms are not quite there in terms of classic adrenal

fatigue.

To make myself very clear, it is very important for you to understand that the presentation,

therefore, of adrenal fatigue does not necessarily have to be fatigue in nature.

It can be reproductive disruption.

It could be other issues such as heart palpitations, insomnia, and it is up to the practitioner

and up to you to really fully understand your body and to be able to put all the pieces

of the puzzle together.

If you don't, then oftentimes you can be misled into thinking that this is a single

focus reproductive disruption because of structural problems and repeated miscarriage can often

be the case.

We have people that have five, six, or seven miscarriages, especially in their first trimester,

not knowing what to do and not knowing the reason.

Until you find out the reason, you would not be able to solve the problem.

The good news is that this is actually a problem that's relatively easy to fix.

Your doctor, once alerted, will be able to embark on a program to make sure that you

have enough progesterone to reduce the probability and chances of reproductive disruption in

the first trimester.

It's an easy problem to fix if you are alert but it can be a devastating problem and frustrating

and emotionally draining if you don't have that radar to detect these other possibilities

other than structural problems in the case of miscarriages and reproductive disruptions

in adrenal fatigue.

Remorse Is Not Repentance - Duration: 2:43.

In yesterday's devotion I explained to you how someone who commits suicide,

if they have repentance in their heart, faith in their heart,

they can be forgiven by God.

I want to talk a little further on that

because just feeling bad is not repentance.

Remorse is not repentance.

If one of your loved ones committed suicide

and you looked at their life and went,

"Man, they felt awful. Awful about what they did in their life,

the sins that they had and that caused them to commit suicide.

Then they've got to be in heaven because they felt bad."

But again, remorse is not repentance.

One of the easiest ways to explain this to you

is by examining Peter and Judas.

Both of these men just epically failed Jesus.

Jesus warned both of them what they were about to do,

but both of them failed.

Judas betrayed Jesus.

Handed him over and he was crucified.

And when that happened, Judas felt awful. I mean, just horrible about it.

In fact, he took the money that he was given

and brought it back to the temple said,

"I don't want this" and tried to give it back.

They wouldn't take it. He threw it.

He just left the temple and he ran out.

And with that remorse, with that sadness,

and with no faith and trust in God,

he committed suicide.

Peter explains later in the Bible

that Judas went to the place he deserved to go.

Well, we all deserve to go to hell.

And that's where Peter tells us that Judas went

because he didn't have faith.

He didn't have repentance.

He just had remorse.

Peter had repentance.

Peter also failed Jesus,

denying Jesus time, and time, and another time.

And when Peter did that, Jesus walks through at that moment, their eyes lock,

and Peter runs out and he weeps bitterly.

And you see repentance inside of Peter.

He wants to go back to be with the brothers and be in the body of believers.

As he hears that Jesus is not in the tomb on Easter Sunday,

who's one of the first people run there?

It's Peter. He's got to be with God. Peter had repentance.

And so he was restored,

restored by the grace of God.

As Jesus went to the cross to free everyone,

everyone who has repentance,

understand remorse is not repentance.

It's not about how bad we feel.

It's not about the amount of remorse that we have.

It's never about us. Forgiveness is always only about the power

of our merciful God,

and incredible love that he pours unto all who have trust in him.

What a lava-ly home! The tiny house by the world's most active volcano - Duration: 2:13.

Solid base: Literally rising from the ashes, pint-sized Phoenix House is built on top of a lava flow at the base of the world's most active volcano in Hawaii

Say your prayers: The unique one-bedroom property is located four miles away from Mauna Loa, which has erupted 33 times since 1843, the most recent time being in 1984

Fiery flow: Mauna Loa has historically been considered the largest volcano on Earth. No recent eruptions have caused fatalities, but eruptions in 1926 and 1950 destroyed villages

Taking things to new heights: The cosy property features a loft-style bedroom, which is accessible via a wooden ladder

Wake up call: Large windows allow natural light to flood into the property, while there is also electricity at the site

Mixed materials: Will Beilharz of ArtisTree, who designed the 450-square-foot abode, said he built the house with a 'deep respect for mother Earth' aiming for a design that would blend into the surroundings

Scrub-a-dub: The bathroom has a shower, small sink, and toilet. The hot water heater for the shower is on demand

Home for the holidays: The property is decked out with everything needed for a comfortable stay, including crockery and cooking ingredients

Property owner, Jade, pegs it as the perfect spot for a spot of 'reverence, contemplation, and healing'. She adds: 'If you are ever in need of a space to go to be reborn, come and rise from the ashes in Phoenix House!'

Customers Bathroom - Can I Use It? Cleaning Lady Wants to Know - Duration: 4:13.

Hi there, I'm Angela Brown and this is As a House Cleaner.

This is a show where you get to ask a house cleaning question,

and I get to help you find an answer.

Today's question comes from a house cleaner who wants to know,

"Is it okay if when I'm at the customer's house and

I have to use the bathroom really bad,

Is it okay if I use the customer's bathroom?

Or do I need to wait until my shift is over and then I can go at a gas station

or a restaurant or a fast food place?"

Okay, the answer to that question is, because you are a house cleaner you're going to have

more interaction with that family and that house,

then, let's say, a guy that comes in twice a year and sprays for bugs,

or something like that.

You are more intimately involved in that family's life.

Since they're more comfortable with you, there are times that maybe you're going to be there

a little bit longer than someone who's going to come in for a

quick 5 to 10-minute spray job for bugs.

You're going to be there for a couple of hours.

Maybe 2, 3, 4, 6 hours and during that time your body is going to speak to you.

If you're staying hydrated which we encourage, you are going to need to use the bathroom.

Instead of stopping and leaving the customers house and going somewhere,

you're going to have to use their bathroom.

Whether they like it or not.

But the good news is this: As a maid or a housekeeper or a house cleaner,

you have cleaning supplies with you.

If you decide that you're going to use their loo, you have the chance then to

wipe the toilet down after you're done.

When you use the faucet, you can wipe the handles down so you that you've left no germs

and no fingerprints and none of your personal germs behind.

So, you have the ability to sanitize after you leave.

They may not like it, but if they don't and they bring it up…

we've actually had customers over the years that say,

"We don't like hired help using our bathroom."

Alright, well logistically, in a perfect world,

I could go 6 hours without having to go.

But like I said, if you stay hydrated, which you need in order to complete your job,

you're going to have to go.

This is one of those weird conversations that no one wants to talk about and when it comes up,

it's just kind of awkward and,

"Did you use my restroom?"

"I did.

And then I sanitized everything when I was done."

You can have a conversation with that customer about it, or you can just ask.

"Hey, I was hoping this didn't happen but, I've got to use the restroom. Is that okay?"

And then usually, they'll say okay. And if they say no...

I've heard a lady that lived in an apartment complex, she's like,

"There's a public restroom at the end of the hall."

And she says this to a repair guy that came while I was there while I was there cleaning.

So she wouldn't let him use her restroom, but she let me.

and so, she sent him down the hall.

So, there are customers that are weird about that

and you have to kind of respect the space that they're in.

But in the event that you need to use their restroom, if for any reason you have a problem,

just let them know, "I did."

I hope you didn't mind.

I couldn't wait.

I didn't want to stop and run down the street or run down to the store to use theirs, but

I did sanitize yours on the way out the door.

So, it's sanitized, it's clean, it's ready for you guys."

I would just let them know that.

I would hope that it's not a problem,

but you kind of have to go, if you kind of have to go.

That's my tip for today.

Sanitize it after you're done and have a conversation with the customer if you need to.

Alrighty, so that's my tip for today.

If you found this helpful, leave a note about what it was that you found helpful.

Did you find one tip or one idea or something that you're going to change

as a result of our time together today?

I'm curious.

Until we meet again,

Leave the world a cleaner place, than when you found it.
