0:00.0	Welcome to the Waste No Day podcast, a podcast specifically for and about the home services industry as it relates to plumbing, heating,
0:22.7	air conditioning, and electrical. More than a podcast, Waste No Day is a credo, a determination,
0:29.4	a mindset. It is a never-ending discipline. It is a refuse to lose pursuit. It is a wake-up call
0:36.0	every morning to waste no day. Now here's your host,
0:40.5	Brian Burton and Nate Minnick.
0:50.7	Hey, welcome to another episode of the Waste No Day podcast. I'm your host, Nate. I'm Brian.
0:56.5	And we have a new podcast, a new episode, and eventually a new guest on part two this week for you.

2:06.7	This is going to hit high level stuff like the water heater, but also some of the smaller items like valves and pipe conditions and those types of things.
2:15.0	And I'm sure our interview with Ed will get into more than nitty-gritty of what is important to review in these particular calls. But for right now,
2:22.7	Brian and I want to focus on a couple of things here. And let's start with the idea of prevention.
2:28.8	What is prevention worth? What is the value of prevention? And the answer to that is completely unknown unless you know
