The post above mine explains it well with pics. It's used to vent pressure so liquid can flow into the smaller tank from the larger tank. Yes you are venting a little propane but it's normal. That the benefit to pulling a vacuum on the tank. You don't have to vacuum it to get it full but it...

Pulling a vacuum on the tank makes a big difference only in how fast it fills and in how much propane you will waste. If you don't pull a vacuum on it, you can still fill it without a problem but you'll waste a little more propane. You just open the vent valve on the small tank. It'll vent...

Too many factors to give a solid answer. We know nothing about the place you moved from and how it compares to your new place. Bottom line is....insulate, ventilate, condition. In that order. If more insulation doesn't fix it, then you need to ventilate. Powered ventilation will always...

There is a large Corps of Engineers lake not too far from me and we boat on the lake. There are lots of marinas on the lake and a fair number of restaurants. Many of them have uninsulated roofs over the dining areas. On hot days, they pipe lake water up to the roof and it runs down, thus...

To the OP….can you tap the vapor line from your larger tank? Run a line to the shop and then put a low pressure regulator on the shop. Then you can run directly off the bigger tank.

I don’t see a liquid withdrawal port on your tank. Well the valve in the middle on the first picture might be one but uncertain. There should be a cap on it. I do fill smaller propane bottles from my larger tank. Similar basic set up as the linked thread earlier. I have an HVAC vacuum pump...

Looks like a nice tool. I have the Harbor Freight version and love it. Only way I fill cooling systems any more. Even easy to fill systems get filled via vacuum. I have a RZR 800 and they are notoriously difficult to fill. There are a bunch of ways out there to get the system full and all...

I buy filters from this company in bulk. I use the MERV 11 filters. I have plenty of air intake space (much more than I need) so I like the higher MERV filters. Takes 4 filters every time I change them. https://www.discountfilters.com/furnace-air-filters/

Neat concept but wouldn't work on a single vehicle or piece of equipment I currently own.

I've seen a few houses struck by lightning in my lifetime and if my house gets struck by lightning, issues with the gas lines are just one of many issues I'll have to deal with. So, I don't lose any sleep over it.

I used CSST in my house when we built it. I did bond it per the instructions and also installed it per the manufacturer's instructions. No issues to date. I used black iron pipe to a manifold and then ran the CSST to where I needed it. I did take steps to protect it within the walls from...

My local Napa store has a guy working there who is probably 70 at least. I don’t know how many days a week he works. I think parts sales would be ideal for you. If you can’t work at a somewhat comparable pace as a younger mechanic, then you are filling a shop bay that would be better filled by...

I prefer Husky wrenches over Kobalt. Personally, seeing how Craftsman is taking over Lowes, I suspect Kobalt will be going away. I don't have any specific inside information that says that's the case but companies don't generally like to carry competing lines. Kobalt tools aren't getting any...

I did have some issues with some large bolts on my tractor bush hog that a 3/4 impact would have been nice to have. I got the 1/2 to work by using heat but eventually I'll be getting a 3/4 impact for some really stuck bolts.

You will not be very happy with the insulation the builder is offering. Is this going to be a metal frame building? 1 inch of foam sheets over the outside, while lower R value than what they are promising with their "insulation", will make you much happier and you can spray foam it later if...

The answer to "Is geothermal cost effective?" is always.....it depends. The larger the building the more likely it'll make sense. If you are retrofitting a system to a building that is poorly insulated, it may make sense. If you are building in a severe climate (either very hot or very cold)...

Main use will be for a Jeep TJ but may also use it for others. Again, I have a nice scanner in the shop. Just looking for an app that can scan and read and then erase codes when away from home. Nothing fancy needed. Cheap or free app would work fine for me. Looking on the iPhone App Store there...

Any costs associated with it? I don’t need anything fancy.

I bought a small plug in OBD2 reader that connects via bluetooth to my iphone. I need an app for my phone. I don't need something fancy. I have a good code reader at my home shop. I bought this to take with me on trips to do a quick scan and to clear codes. Don't need all kinds of fancy...
