How do the grill marks happen 🤔? 🙃

If the indoor fan is "on" and there is no air coming out of the registers, that's a sure sign of a frozen indoor coil.

Inside part, the pipe appears to be lacking clearance to combustibles before it enters the wall sleeve. Plain single wall pipe needs a 6" clearance, IIRC. Wall sleeve inner part is 3" IIRC. Look at the instructions. Holes are supposed to be there. I'm assuming there's a sleeve that the vent...

Next version will be better. Promise... ;)

This is pointless if the "downstairs" is also part of the area defined as conditioned space. The void between the first and second floor isn't insulated (but the rim joist should be). You need to define what is "conditioned space", and then make the thermal envelope match. If "downstairs" is...

Well, then it should have been labeled "plan view". There is probably some bias in how I would look at it, as drawn, because it looks like a horizontal trunk line with the takeoff coming off the top, up into the floor joist, then coming down. I have seen people draw like this, and it really...

Honestly, your diagram ***** and it makes no sense. It looks like a mish mash of plan and elevation views. If you don't want to tear out the system and redo it (first post, last sentence), then what does it matter what is done? It certainly won't get "fixed" "later" after you finish the ceiling...

Cut your losses and sell it now. 😁

If anyone can spearhead this, it would be Louis Rossman. This came out a few days ago:

Because that person doesn't know how to fix the problem. It is exceedingly difficult to get someone to venture outside of the box. I have worked with many that will only do things 1 way. Don't know. In my little slice, most of the time people want solutions, want them now, but do not want to...

They make two, M12 and M18. Big price difference between them. The 1/4" diameter rivet seems to be the break point for tool cost- see the Milwaukee items above. I have a Marson and the Milwaukee M12. For 1/8" rivets, the Milwaukee is great. I had to set some 1/4" rivets at work, and the shop...

Size (diameter/length), material?

I recall seeing a model in manufacturer literature that was specifically designed for sidewall venting, but it had a specific piece of vent piping that had to be used. I find it odd that one is supposed to be a licensed plumber to replace a water heater, yet there is no requirement for someone...

The fact the existing installation does NOT have AC means that the ductwork is likely undersized. Almost all residential work that I have seen is undersized more on the return side of the system. If the existing furnace is intermittent ignition, 80% AFUE, replacing it with a 90+% AFUE model...

Yes. Absolutely. The only way to know is with a combustion analysis. The "gloom and doom" "15 year life expectancy" also includes all of the ****** installations out there that dramatically reduce equipment life. Manufacturers wouldn't have 20+ year warranties on the heat exchangers if they...

I would like to build an electric pressure washer after my employer paid $2,400 for a 120V coil washer setup from Goodway, that doesn't even shut off when the trigger is released. The employer has a couple of slightly smaller and cheaper ones that DO shut off when the trigger is released. The...

Use it after each use, before putting it away. When the water starts to dry inside the pump, it will leave deposits that will ruin the pump (damage the metal parts) and the seals (when the seals go over the damaged metal). If you live where it freezes, odds are that forgetting to winterize the...

Note the foil tape used to seal the vent pipe joints... but there's still that big hole under the draft diverter... 😁
