Here is South Jersey they require ground rods and Upher grounds,which is continuous ground through rebar and mesh infloor to the panel

I would add a mixing valve to keep the floor temp from getting too high,you can crack the concrete if its too hot.I run mine around 100 degrees max

Set up a sprinkler to spray on the condenser coil,that will lower your ambient temp which will inturn lower you discharge temp inside.Just a light spray not a fire hose

You must flush the coil and line set first,the oil in R22 is not compatible with R410.They recommend changing everything out.R410 when mixes with moisture creates acid so the system has to be very dry and leak free. The dry unit means it comes with no refrigerant because they can no longer sell...

your numbers are right,its low on refrigerant,normally that style unit leaks at the accumulator,its a tank in the condenser and they are made of steel and rot away.

IS the large pipe frosting up,it could either be low on refrigerant,dirty filter or slow running blower motor.I am assuming by the pressures that its an R-22 unit.It looks like an old york or coleman heat pump by the number.The number on the inside is the temperature of the large pipe up close...

if its a smaller size pipe you can use compression or shark bite fittings.We use them for freezeup during the winter.

Well the reason there is no drain hole is that the water is supposed to sling up on the condenser coil help cool it off and keep it clean of pollen,salt air etc.So drilling a hole will make it rot away quicker.

They make a fish string thats very light but strong,youpierce a table tennis ball and tie the string to it and put a shop vac on the other end.It will fly right through,the tie the string to a rope and pull that through then pull the wires with the rope.Use pulling compound on the wires,its...

Hi,I'm in NJ and the code here calls for 2 foot above anything within 10 feet.Does the beacon morris offer any other flue options,ie power vent,horizontal venting?

Did anyone happen to check the gs pressure,you may be overfired.I have a 45000 with lp gas and the pressures have to be checked and set.

A friend turned me on to this site,its very interesting to say the least.Lots of good ideas.My garage is an ongoing project,plus its not big enough already.I built it 2 years ago,its 28x32.I need to organize,maybe I'll get some ideas here.
