    Stationary Genset Install

    Thanks Chilliwack I added a pic to my original post to help me clarify. The manufacturer specific interlock installed on the panel(s) prevents the 80 amp generator breaker and main breaker from both being turned ON at the same time. The generator breaker has to be located in specific relation...

    Stationary Genset Install

    Need advice on installation of a stationary 16kw Onan w/ weather enclosure behind my shop. I'm going to have an electrician involved to ensure everything's done right and to code but wanted to discuss my options for my particular install. I'm an automotive technician by trade not an...

    My floor project is done...get going on yours :)

    RTcat's floor looks great. My shop is similar in size but I occasionally mig weld. Curious how the product stands up to this abuse and if damaged can it be spot repaired? I read the Tech Data for the HD015 product and it didn't mention this. Thanks in advance.

    Best Tractor for Home Use?

    Purchased a Bobcat 230 (30hp) 2 yrs ago and it's been great. Came with loader, hydrostat, Bobtach bucket, deluxe 3-point and 4x4 for $14500. It's funny before I purchased the tractor I used to suffer with back problems, sure is nice having a loader around. NH and Kubota were also considered...

    Pellet furnace vs wood furnace

    I burn wood pellets or corn in my Quadrafire Mt. Vernon (60000btu). This will be it's 4th winter and it's been a good unit and it's cleaned on a weekly basis. My best advice is to buy from someone who can also provide good service. Although mine has been good pellet stoves can be...

    Insulating a roll up door

    I'm paying attention also....mine's 14 x 10 and faces west (didn't have a choice). The only solution I've come up with so far is reflective bubble wrap (ecofoil) which may be OK for a radiant barrier in the summer but wouldn't be effective in the winter and is easily damaged.

    2010 Where's Krusty -F150 4.6 3V Idles High with foot off Gas

    Not a Ford guy but doubt their drive-by-wire system is much different than a Mopar, although Ford calculates fuel trim with Mass-Air and Mopar is Speed Density. I'd graph both upstream 02 sensors and look for nice smooth rich/lean cross counts. Any 02 irregularities will also show up on...

    Wall-Mount Oscillating Fan - where to mount?

    Appreciate the help guys. I need to take the time and do as Volkyrican suggested, do a validation study for my environment. I was actually looking for a ceiling mount oscillating unit but the 1/6hp 20" ceiling-mounts where $75 more than the 1/4hp 30" wall-mount I bought. Since it produced...

    Wall-Mount Oscillating Fan - where to mount?

    Hey guys, I've been lurking for a couple of years now....what a great forum. Anyways, I've got a 2.5 car insulated garage and I'm adding an Air King 30" 1/4hp oscillating wall-mount fan ($175 @ discountcleaningsupplies.com). The garage has a standard 16' double door with a 36" entrance door...

    cool tool CTV2

    A friend of mine in Denver has one and it works very well in dry arid climates. With a fresh pad and full water tank it will cool 30 degrees below ambient in his 20 x 24 garage. I'm in Oklahoma so with the humidity a "swamp cooler" would never work otherwise I'd own one. I'd think it would...
