Try using a floor or bottle jack to compress it while you line it up and push in place. that way it is controllable. You may be squatting or on your back but not stressing yourself in ways us older guys don't bend so well.
I just finished putting a bilge pump with a float valve in my boat...
With the nicer weather coming on to us in the near future, it was time to do a little work on my Travel Trailer. I had to replace the charge controller I had for my solar panels for of grid camping because of cheap switches and manufacturing. So while doing the install I figured I would install...
Downfall on a tankless is that no electricity no hot water. My neighbor said yes tankless is nice on one hand but from his experience they get quite costly to fix once out of warranty. He said the internal circuit boards are very expensive and from all reviews I have seen, North American...
