    Yes, another Fluorescent to LED Conversion Thread

    It does say double ended, in the first graphic as well as the text. And yes, hot to one end, neutral to the other.

    Need New A/C Or Heat Pump

    Ask what refrigerant the proposed system will use. R410 is being phased out. Some people say the future availability isn't concerning, others say otherwise.

    Above 1200 Sq/FT The Salvage Garage

    I must be missing something. It's obvious the codes and associated database would be great for drilling down into data, but how do the codes help you drill up? From here it looks like you would search the database for "tire inflator" and it would tell you where it is, with QR code AND...

    I propose the site add a Get Off my Lawn (Old Men Yelling at Clouds) forum we can vote threads into. :devilish::devilish:

    What should I do? 10 SEER A/C refuses to die.

    I've talked to several homeowners companies in the last two years, and it is almost universal that they ask about the AC, just as they do the roof. I've even had it come up with respect to plumbing and wiring, though not as often. They could be figuring reduced losses due to depreciation, if...

    What should I do? 10 SEER A/C refuses to die.

    I could have written this, as all portions of it reflect my current situation, as well as my desire on how insure.

    Anyone see this on reddit?

    It appears that garage organizing would be a profitable trade.

    Adding a second A/C unit to cool upstairs

    This may be the single biggest problem. If these can't be expanded I would think a supplemental upstairs unit of some sort would be almost unavoidable.

    Adding a second A/C unit to cool upstairs

    Look for the guy that talks technical on his website - like "air quality", "manual J", "blower door test", "air sealing", etc. You don't want the company with ten trucks, also does plumbing and electrical, flashy website, offers financing, etc.

    Adding a second A/C unit to cool upstairs

    Would it be possible to install dampers which would be used by a zoning system to restrict downstairs flow at night, forcing more to the upstairs?

    Small bearing puller needed

    I wonder if an autobody weld stud like this would withstand the force needed.

    Small bearing puller needed

    How thin do the edges have to be to get behind one or both of these bearings?

    Small bearing puller needed

    Windshield wiper pullers like this seem to have the thin lips you need, but of course at the risk of bending. I just bought the OEM Tools battery terminal puller to pull a small motor bearing, but the lips are probably about .030, although you might be able to clamp/wedge them together under...

    Moisture meter for drywall recommendation

    If you're looking for blatant moisture damage, it doesn't take much of a meter to find it. The relatively cheap pin/pinless meter (Accumaster Duo Pro) I bought will measure in tenths of a percent, and will vary maybe 1% depending just on how you hold it against the wall. In practice it is very...
