    Circulator pump ?

    So if I understand this correctly, you have a 009 circulator at the boiler pumping hot water from the boiler thru approx. 120' of 3/4" PEX to the second 009 pump which then enters the manifold and then into the 8 infloor circuits and then back to the boiler. Correct? If you have two of these...

    Circulator pump ?

    My bad, I meant 009. Yes, max head on the 007 is about 10 ft. I am confused about the two pumps, do you have a primary/secondary system? It would help if you described the system in detail. Cheers Steve

    Circulator pump ?

    Correct. Anthony hit the nail on the head. Also, I'm assuming that the 120' of 3/4" PEX is one way from the boiler to the manifold, meaning that you actually have 240' of PEX, coming and going. Correct? Anyway, no matter, If its working, live with it. I looked at the Taco pump curves for the 00...

    FYI Pay off of a well insulated garage

    10 degrees here in Western Nebraska, warmest it has been since last Monday! Longest cold spell that we have had in a long time. My shop is well insulated, R25 walls, R40+ ceiling, and was still 35 degrees this morning. I have a temp probe located just under the slab, it reads 52 degrees. Cheers...

    NG Infrared 80000 BTU heater for attached garage

    You are correct to be concerned. Infrared heating is great, unvented not so much!! From personal experience, the unvented heater will deplete the oxygen and produce moisture, plus they stink IMHO. Return it and get the vented heater. Cheers Steve

    Should I swap Single Phase Delta 1.5 HP for 3HP 3 Phase Dust Collector?

    If the Jet is equal to the Delta, one tool is pretty much all it will handle. If I open one blast gate and forget to close another, leaving 2 open, performance drops to pretty much nothing. Cheers Steve

    Should I swap Single Phase Delta 1.5 HP for 3HP 3 Phase Dust Collector?

    Does the 1.5 hp do the job for you? If it does, why would you want to trade since you do not have 3 phase? I have the 1.5 hp Delta plumbed with 5 inch galvanized ducting to my power tools. Works just fine using one machine at a time. Cheers Steve

    New roof in November?

    I agree fully. Shingles installed this late will not seal except on the south exposure where it gets direct sun. If you get winter winds, you are asking for them to lift and possibly blow off. This comes from personal experience. Cheers Steve

    got the insulation done now to sheet rock

    Re: got yhe insulation done now to sheet rock Ditto on not using a ventless heater. In addition, they stink and will eventually run short on oxygen if you have a well sealed shop. Cheers Steve

    What your Dad taught you,

    Bendpak RJ-45 rolling bridge jack

    You will be fine with your compressor. I have a 60 gallon Quincy with that jack and have had no problems. It may require 10-20 CFM but only for short times and the reserve in your tank will handle that. Cheers Steve
