Found the answer that has been elusive for days.... At my latitude, facing south west results in a 12-13% drop in production. Facing east or west is a larger 18-22% drop. For the few thousand difference...I will be going in the roof and won't be putting more posts in concrete.. they had...

Would you rather have fiberglass insulation at $4500 and r 11 or closed cell foam insulation for 9k and r7? Western wa. Not currently heated... Admins...wish polls were still around Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

Found it. I had removed all of the big blue 20" filters. But left the 52 micron and 32 micron screens in. The 32 micron screens was filled with black sand. Ugh. Once removed, pressure dropped to 25 psi. New setup. New filters. New pressure gauges. Any thoughts on how to...

Why would my pressure be so high? I have a 17 gpm grundfos pump about 128' in my well. Coming out of the well casing is a 1.25" pipe that I flow into a series of spin down filters and 3 big blue filters. It empties into an open cistern. So no pressure tank After I saw the pressure climb...

This Friday we are setting trusses for my 40*84*14 pole barn. I am renting a 34' boom forklift and a scissor lift. I already have scaffolding for both sides. Any tips or tricks as we go to set them.... A whole bunch of friends with no "professional". They are a double truss being set on...

The float is 3 wires but only 2 is used. Standard on the starter. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

So what you are proposing is to just take.. say the red line...and put in series? What I don't know is what happens to a 220v pump when...in my simple mind....you take of one leg of power....making it 110 while the float is in the off position. Did my question make sense? Sent from my Pixel...

I will get the pump details. It is is a 1.5 HP pump at 240. The Brody switch has a RATED CURRENT of 16 AMPS. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

Hello,. Have a deep well 220v grundfos pump with the sa-spm6 control box installed in the well house. How do I put a Brody or other float switch in to stop the flow from a wiring perspective. This well is flowing into a 1100 gallon tank. The float is 220v and is configurable to either open...

I have both a farm boss and a 311. The farm boss though great....gets outdone by the 311. My only suggestion that others haven't made is.....stay with 1 bar length if you are hamstrung on budget. Then you will have more chains, chaps, helmet, etc... Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using The...

I like the idea of adding the bookshelf s. That would add more strength. For looks sake, I might just wrap the other middle end post to match if that is the direction I go. Any thoughts about adding in some steel strapping underneath the 2" material? Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

It wasn't cracked when I put them in. Nor was it cracked when I poured 4' deep of concrete around....or the slab. Unfortunately, cutting them out...I hope....is option 99/100. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
