    Wondering how difficult it is to install a new home thermostat. Instructions say a certified electrician is required... but I'm betting that's just for liability reasons.

    I wonder how many people have said this right before getting zapped

    I've been zapped... It's not that big of a deal. But I'd like to avoid burning the house down...

    It’s not that big of a deal 😏

    Welllll---I'd suggest you look into that and start labeling correctly before someone does get hurt (or worse ).

    I have been... still have a ways to go though. Who ever DIY'd some of the stuff on this house prior to my owning it was, um, less than professional with their work.
