its a old Johnwood compressor... I dont see them around anymore

I lost my wiring diagram when I pulled the compressor out of my old shop and am trying to figure it out... this is what I have... its a 5hp Leland-Faraday motor 230V, 24.5 amp 1 phase, 3 capacitors type KD, stock number XM-005B... the thing is that the power went into a box(switch box) that...

I did my floor in gray epoxy... makes it brighter in there for working, easy clean up and it just looks good... I put my race logo on the floor and cleared over it... this will most likely be my last shop so I did it the way I always wanted it(except for the size... too small... 1080 sq ft)

I have a meter that monitors the output temp from the boiler, input (return to the boiler) and a flow meter.... I have valves on both the inlet and return on each zone JUST in case a zone were to develop a leak.... so far I've slowing down the return to hold the heat longer in the floor...

I just got my boiler fired up for the first time today... its working great... but with adjusting the zones I can change the the flow rate.... what do you guys like to see and what would be your minimum flow (GPM). I have the 1/8 HP pump with a Takagi JR boiler. I'm heating 1100 sqft of...

I ran all 12-3 w/ground for everything (it comes in the flex conduit... forget what its called) most on it lays on the Z channel thats at 7'... if I needed to go up and over the main beams I used zip screws and conduit clamps... makes for real quick job. I have quite a few 220 items in my shop...

Are you using the water base version of the Rustoleum or the industrial version, I was very happy with the industrial version and it laid down very evenly and went farther than they said it would :bounce:

I used the same screws that hold the building together(self tapping)zip screws... I put a 220 and 4 110 outlets(double box) on every vertical column .... plus a 220 outside the big door and 2 110s outside(one to plug my race trailer into).... on the outside ones I backed up the metal with a...

Well I ended up getting a Takagi boiler... ramp up type from 4k to 144k... I just finished the install and will fire it up next week(waiting for a low pressure alarm) Thanks all

Thank guys..... I think I'll drill in the Hilti style to about 3 1/2"... I dont want to get near my pex

I have a 9000# twin post(side by side) that mounts on the concrete, it uses 4 (could be 8) 3/4" bolts..... what would be the depth for the anchors to be safe.... I have 1/2" pex near the bottom of my 6" slab. I didnt put the pex where I thought the hoist was going to be BUT I changed hoist and...

I'm looking at the Bobcat 120 boiler and wondered if any of you have used it.... this is going in my work shop 1100 sq ft (insulated, all steel structure, insulated concrete also) Thanks

What kind of price is the 150 TI(round figures).... also did you have to supply the pump....... do you have any pics of your set up thanks

My screw up.... I should have stated I was looking for a natural gas unit.... also based on the info given.... how many BTU input should I be looking for? I' m 30 miles north of Detroit and I believe the average winter temp to be right around 32*-35* from what I have checked.... I was thinking...

I have a 30' X 36' small shop that I just built... I insulated under the concrete with 1.5" (R9) put the pex in the 6" thick slab... could only insulate down about 8" around the perimeter ..... 3 zones of 1/2" pex, each each about 230' long. This is a complete steel structure but I did insulate...
