    Windows in Overhead Door, Yes or No?

    When I bought my house I had no windows in the garage door, and no windows in the garage. Had to turn on the light EVERYTIME I went in because it was pitch black. Replaced the original door which was also dented, with a new one that has a row of windows up top and it's so much better with the...

    Killing Ants: What actually works?

    +1 on Terro. I've used that for pavement ants and it always works. One year we had some carpenter ants appear. Used this stuff called Bayer Maxforce FC Killer Gel Ant Bait and never saw them again after a few days.

    Daikin minisplit not cooling

    I have a 3 year old Daikin setup, slow leak and had to get it topped up then it ran out again. Heads would blink green and I went though getting the codes and it was low refrigerant. HVAC company who installed it fixed it under warranty. Talked to the tech and he said it was the flare nut...

    Fireplace Log Sets

    Had a ventless set in a previous home that was there when we moved in. Hated it because it would make a hissing noise and would occasionally smell like unburnt NG. I never had a fake log set before, but I suspected this was not good. Had a plumber cap the NG line then tossed that log set in the...

    Enjoyed this to see how he handled a majority of that by himself. Guess it's nice to have a few things like that lift table.

    Nitrile Rubber Gloves

    I paid HF 15.99 for the 50 count 7 mil nitrile gloves a few weeks back. They had a sign up about the price hike which is understandable. I usually buy the 5 mil, but they were out but they were still only 2 dollars less. May as well pay more and get a slightly hardier glove.

    Neighbor's pool filter discharges into my backyard

    When I had a pool I would use a discharge hose. A cheap one is like $20 for a 20ft hose, you can get really long ones, but basically they're about a dollar a foot. Mine only lasted about a season, two if I was lucky. If the neighbor is considerate enough they would get one and simply hook it up...

    Garage window glass options

    I vote clear as well, I switched to a Coplay door with a row of small windows across the top pane. Lets in plenty of light and I'm not tall enough to see into the garage from the outside. No need for special glass.

    Heat Pump in Northeast

    In Southern NH. I have two Daikin units with a total of 5 heads (2 bottom floor, 3 heads upstairs). We can run them easily down to 15-20 degrees, the units on paper can theoretically run down to 5F. To prevent risking running them in the really low temps we generally switch to oil once winter...

    Will 4 post lift Bendpak HD-9ST (Narrow) Work with my car?

    Yeah that does seem to be the case. From the diagram is looks like the 76.5 is where the tapered up portion starts so If you're off by more than an inch or so you might risk rubbing a rim up against it. Going to the HD-7W or something else a little wider doesn't change the width of the ramps...

    scissor lift as work table

    I threw a piece of cardboard on top of mine and used it as a work table to cut and paint doors. Works alright, but.. pretty expensive workbench
