Hey all, I need help diagnosing an older Sanyo mini-split. It's a 12k single head unit. Ran fine this past fall and spring for heat (pellet stove over winter). The unit blows cold air and will maintain 74 degrees, but if we set the t-stat below 74 the unit will freeze up. Frost starts at the...

Below is a link to a better priced COZY floor mat. I've used these in a basement office before and currently have one in front of my work bench where my computer is. Makes a huge difference to get you off a cold concrete floor, assuming you are mostly stationary...

Holy ****! Merry Christmas!

I figured I'd offer up some proof - receipt attached. Ignore my redneck redaction.

That's ridiculous! I'm just an hour south of you, just got 400 gallons Monday at $1.99. I own my own tank and was a first time customer. Heller's Gas.

Hi all, I need some help with LP piping sizing/capacity planning. We bought our house 2 1/2 years ago and it had a rented LP tank and heaters (detailed below). I purchased the tank and all accessories after a nightmare of dealing with the provider. I have removed all of the LP appliances due...

I would say a capacitor is going bad - they start to leak or dry out and the top metal seal/lid of the cap will vibrate at high frequency. You can find the bad cap by opening up the unit and putting pressure on the top of each cap, when the whistle is gone, you found the bad one. Not dangerous...

You're welcome! The Paulk workstations are exactly what I had in mind; the name just wasn't coming to me (and I didn't bother re-reading the thread). I'll be building something based on his designs in the near future. I'm downsizing to a 2 car garage (from a 34x38 and a two car!) and will be...
