Was attempting to follow a post reply via an email and **** the entire forum is hidden or gone. I assume this was by design? Dave

Looking at the wiring am I correct in assuming that the thermostat applies 24Vac to the zone valve which in turn uses the end switch to send a signal to the boiler to fire? It seems the end switch is at 24Vac when the valve is closed and 0Vac when the valve is open. I think I fried my...

Can't delete my post but I did find what I needed. For others searching for this look to AIR VENT 58030. I am renovating a house and I went to all decora outlets. The only thing left is this rotary whole house fan control. It is a 120V 8A rotary switch (FSS-2 by nutone). I am looking to...

THe garage is quite large and has two systems w/ two identical thermostats side by side. I would like to consolidate and have one nest thermostat control both systems. I have a few questions. Are there any problems running both at the same time? WIll they work together or will they fight...

I live in Illinois and it gets from zero to the low 100s on occasion. I don't think the attic will ever get too cold given that heat rises and there is some insulation in the garage but I could be wrong. As far as heat, well that's an issue. I have a 20x20 wall mounted rack which I am handing...

I bought one for a standard 4" box and the bolt spacing is much wider on that. It appears this box is the ceiling fan size with a much narrower bolt spacing. There was a single A19 fixture on this box and I want to extend the box to run conduit to it to feed a couple 4' LED fixtures on the...

I went to HD and they had nothing. I have filed the edges of the eave where I cut but I'd rather have some type of protective edging there. Preferably something that is paintable. It will be concealed by the camera mounts I'm making but me being me I want to use some type of anti chafe. I...

I am replacing all interior doors and I'd like to find out if my garage to house door hs to be fire rated. I would like to have a glass top half door but getting one that is fire rated would be an issue. Can i call the local inspector or is there a place I can research on my own? Thanks much...

I just purchased a house which has new dual water heaters. It also has a new additional bathroom. What baffles me (Ill get pics later today) is the spigot drain on one of them has a T before the spigot valve that goes up to a pump which is on a timer (Currently timer is set to off) and that...

I am not sure if this is by design or someone just likes cutting rectangles in drywall but I have a ton of returns in certain rooms. One high/low sometimes 4 on one wall. Is this something that is supposed to help functionality or is it overkill? I have included a few pics. The furnace is a...

Or the guy worked for Lutron. He had switches everywhere, multiple threeways, in fact there are 6 threeways in the garage!! With that said he was for some reason switching the outside light sensing lights in three different locations (Different lights) which I want to do away with. I want...

After looking at the attached specs it appears that a 30A breaker would be acceptable. Am I interpreting this correct? Do I need additional overhead here? If that is the case I assume 10AWG would be acceptable but my question is, at what distance do I generate enough additional resistance to...

So I got these from a printing company and they said they held paper. However there are no dividers. I plan to use these to hold bolts and would love to NOT have to fabricate or 3D print dividers. Anyone else use one of these and perhaps know if there are dividers produced for it? Thanks much...

Kit in question So I have a craftsman/chamberlain garage door now and I love it especially w/ the app. I just bought new house and it has chamberlain liftmaster pro garage door openers. I have two questions for those who have this and more so for those who have more than one. I cannot...

So it seems the first time I start it and put it in drive it is fine, after this it is not. It will not move forward/back. I am trying to better understand the drive system on this. I believe this has a hydrostatic trans but i have no idea what that means exactly as it doesn't actually shift...

So I have to say I'm a bit overwhelmed now that I have my dream garage. I plan to use kitchen cabinets which I will sand and basecoat/clearcoat black to match my tool boxes. I have already obtained a few. I have 4 husky 42x24 rolling cabinets and my old trusty craftsman box. I will also have...

I just acquired this properly and noticed a few spots of damage to the floor. I know nothing about the system used but it is quite thick (1/8"). In one area w/ the largest diameter of damage (About 2.5") it is lifting around the perimeter of the damage. The last pic which is the entry into...

I have a very large garage but I would like to keep it very tidy. I found a very cheap 2 basin utility sink and got the idea of making a bench and flush mounting this sink and then running my own pump though an oil filter to some type of a catch basin w/ a pump in it (I can get freon containers...

I didn't see it so this may be something someone is interested in.
