About

https://www.youtube.com/@WordofAdviceTV?sub_confirmation=1 Word of Advice TV is a channel that is all about useful information! A channel where your time is invested and not wasted :) More than half of my videos are appliance repair related since that is what I went to school for and what I do for work. I make a lot of videos on HVAC repair, how to fix air conditioners, furnaces, water heaters, along with how to videos that show how to install/replace parts. Besides furnace, AC, and other appliance videos I also have videos on product reviews, useful information for life, how to videos, weight-loss, natural remedies, and even some board game tutorials! Always open to suggestions on what videos to make next and I love when you pitch in and share your own tips/suggestions in the comments! Consider joining our word of advice community to learn new things, share your own knowledge, and see what others have to say! See you there ;)
