    Any issues with shutting heat off over summer

    Mine is oil fired but still the same concept. I had a few nights where our room would drop down into the low 60's that would kick the heat on when I really didnt want that happening.

    Any issues with shutting heat off over summer

    I didnt really think there would be but wasnt sure about bacteria or anything else building up in the pipes since the water would be stagnant.

    Any issues with shutting heat off over summer

    I have a forced hot water heating system. Will I have any issues if I turn all of my thermostats off during the summer?

    I guess I should look into this when I go to get someone to do the install of the propane system and hook it up to the cooktop.

    Propane tank size for a cooktop

    This is the information I was looking for. I couldn't find the max tank size I could transport in an enclosed vehicle.

    Propane tank size for a cooktop

    I should be able to handle a 50lb tank, especially if it is outside and easily accessible plus I could always put it from the car to my atv and drive it out to the side of the house if I was feeling really lazy or put it into a wheelbarrow. I have also been trying to find the maximum propane...

    Propane tank size for a cooktop

    The only other propane device I have is my grill which is on the other side of the house. These tanks would only be for the cooktop.

    Propane tank size for a cooktop

    Well this is for a home. I go through a single 20lb tank/year with my gas grill but that doesnt get used much.

    Propane tank size for a cooktop

    I am finally working on the new kitchen and need to spec out the propane tank size for the cooktop but I have no idea how big I would need. Would dual 50lb tanks be enough with an automatic switchover so that I can pull the empty tank and get it refilled?

    Reverse Osmosis systems

    is there a reason to go with a system like this http://www.aquascience.net/gac/index.cfm?id=211 which would filter all of the houses water? Wouldn't I still pick up some metallic taste from the copper piping?

    Reverse Osmosis systems

    I am leaning away from the RO unit since our water isn't actually that bad. I will probably go with at least the 2 stage charcoal based filtering method.

    Reverse Osmosis systems

    I wonder if it would be worth going with a whole house filtration system after my softener but that seems like overkill plus I would still pickup taste from the copper lines. The only 2 stage charcoal filters I am finding are whole house ones.

    Reverse Osmosis systems

    Will do. I was going to run the RO (or other filtered water) to both my sink dispenser and fridge input (which only has an icemaker).
