    nortec humidifier has drainage hooked up to bottom of unit?

    Thanks Tom, It looks like the big wigs have somebody coming in to assess the actual air handler, supply ducting and returns. Maybe the problem isn't the humidifier. I will pull this website up as soon as I get to my computer. Thanks. Frank

    nortec humidifier has drainage hooked up to bottom of unit?

    Should a humidifier be making water as a byproduct? Ours that is hooked up to the new clean room produces overv80 gallons of water daily...for a week and then it's fine. It's winter here and a warm one at that...but its been below zero lately... Thanks. Frank

    Anyone else love knipex?

    The mini bolt cutters are probably my favorite and have saved me a few times where no hand tool in my arsenal would have been of any use. They need a model using the same principle as their current ones, minus the center cut. This will be great for tight spots.

    The DeWalt Addiction Thread

    My friend this impact is wayyy overkill for lugs. You can get the brushed high torque impact dewalt has...that'll be just right for lugs. I use the new brushless impact for bolts torqued to 644 ftlbs. It takes 9 seconds to bust lose a 3/4 10 bolt torqued to 700ftlbs. This was with using the 4...

    The DeWalt Addiction Thread

    Got the newer impact wrench as a bare tool from hd. The LED is awesomely bright. I opted for the detent pin style thinking it would require a nail set or punch to remove the socket which oddly I prefer. I don't do speedy work anyway as I take my time and I only use 4 sockets with this impact. I...

    Mis used tools.. How do you misuse or abuse some tools.

    I've abandoned a lot of my unsafe and ill advised pracrices. I no longer hook a box end to an open end wrench, I no longer slide something over my ratchet, combo wrench or breaker bar. I do still find it hard to not use my leatherman to tap something like a finishing nail or similar that doesn't...

    Improper use of the variable speed on your drills/drivers/impacts is no bueno!?

    But the problem lies where you're already in slow speed and need to install I don't know, cabinet hardware lets say. Speed one more than likely you're going to get cam out unless you utilize the variable speed. What this means to me then is it's there of you absolutely need it but a half inch...

    Improper use of the variable speed on your drills/drivers/impacts is no bueno!?

    Just saw this on a DeWalt brushless impact wrench use and care guide. Granted most of the stuff on here is disclaimer material and pretty generic... I use the variable speed all the time even with a 3 speed drill and haven't had any problems yet. it says use only when starting holes and...

    Craftsman Pro Screwdrivers Black Friday Sale

    I got the same deal at my Sears just the other day. As stated they were scattered in a cardboard box. I got one of each, I think 8 total. Also picked up the 5lb magnet pick up tool with led light on it. Forget what I paid for that. The screwdrivers are really nice for the money, but I probably...

    Help with Torque Wrenches

    I would buy a torque wrench that represents what the bulk of what it'll be used for in it's mid to high-range. So yea I'd go 1/4 or 3/8, probably most of your fasteners torque spec is in inch pounds?
