Default Thermostatic Mixing Valve, or a coupla' check valves and aball...

I am sure that the parents of the children that they are leaving in your
care would love to know this.


I think they'd love to know that I'm actually taking precautions so that
their kids don't get hurt.

One day, somewhere, some kids gonna get scalded due to some cheap assholes


I asked, I got advice, and will be installing a thermostatic valve. The
price struck me as high, but I didn't understand why. Now I do. How, pray
tell, does this make me a cheap asshole? How does asking for advice from
people who know better, and then taking it, make me a cheap asshole?
Explain that to me?

failure to do what was right to maintain a business (if you can call a
daycare out of ones home a legitimate business)


How is that not a "legitimate business"? We pay taxes on the income, are
regulated by the state, pay an accountant to do the books, we've got a
website, business cards and paperwork, we've even got a ****ing sign out
front. Because we didn't pay a sign shop for the sign and a printer for the
business cards, we're illegitimate? Because some large corporation doesn't
dole out our paychecks? Because we actually care about doing it right, and
aren't just in this for the money? Bill Gates started out of his garage,
peckerhead. We've all gotta start somewhere.

and this old post of yours will be drug up for an example


Did you even read my post? I'm taking the advice. I said I was _HOPING_ to
get away cheap. Turns out I can't. Reading comprehension isn't your strong
suit, apparently.

of why those of us with half a mind wont use a home based daycare.


Right... Because a concientious individual couldn't possibly take better
care of your kids than a business that pays their employees sweatshop labor
rates and has higher turnover rate than the fast food industry. And because
they live in the space that they work in, it's almost certainly going to be
filthy and dangerous, right? And because we'll be feeding somebody elses
kids along with our own, we're only going to feed them the cheapest,
nastiest grade ZZZ crap we can find, instead of healthy food.

You sir, are a thoughtless asshole that knows not of what he speaks. You
might know something about HVAC stuff, but childcare, on the other hand...
