Personally, as long as it’s not mixed with water, or heavily infested with algae, yes, i’d use it for heating oil. I’d try to mix it 50/50 with clean diesel/oil. How much we talkin?

Wait. The man just said that a 24k btu kerosene heater “which doesn’t do much to keep it warm”. And you are saying it should be plenty? The guy just said otherwise. My guess is that if a 24k btu heater doesn’t do much, than doubling it would do better. Heaters for garages like Modine heaters...

How i did mine on one side, the other mini on the other side of the house that does the bedrooms is hung on the house due to a sidewalk. I just dug down a solid 6’’ and put down pea gravel. Good drainage makes for no heaves. That pad has gone thru 3 upstate NY winters and looks exactly like that...

Neither. Rent a generator/welder for a day. Or week.

Awesome garage. Super jelly. I see no problem using unisrut and threaded rod. The pitch is very soft. I’m sure you can find where your trusses are. Lag the unistrut perpendicular to the trusses, use spring nuts and threaded rod of various lengths to level the heater, and bolt the heater to the...

No picture anywhere sir. I’m not seeing $h*+.

Mount two unistruts perpendicular to your trusses which are 24” on center. Hang threaded rod from the unistrut, one on each end for a total of four points, and hang the heater from the threaded rod. Or bolt the heater right to the unistrut. Depends how low off the ceiling you want the heater...

How i moved mine into the garage when i bought it. Rented the trailer from sumbelt. Drop deck trailer.

My girlfriends last house had oil heat with hot steam radiators. Her sister and brother in law have a similar set up as well. After that house, I vowed to NEVER own a home with oil heat. Dirty, loud, smelly, occasional expensive breakdowns, required yearly maintenance, and oil is expensive...

The hot water baseboard boiler is as old as this house. 47-48 years old. It’s a National boiler. Cast iron. Made in America. Works fine. But getting scary old. My hot water heater is now 27 years old. Yes, natural gas water heater, ServiceStar band, 40 gal, 27 years old. Barring a major change...

sold For sale is a 1947 Craftsman 1/2hp drill press in mint sweaty condition. My hobby is restoring old american iron. I restored one of these down to nut and bolt, only it was a bench model from 1946. Very little differences. I decided i wanted the floor model so sold the bench model. I was...

Well? How’s it mow? Nice fab.

Get it pumped down, then closed off, then pressurize with nitrogen and see if u can find the leak. Fix leak, then add appropriate amount of refridgerant. Or call an hvac guy, he can do it for you, at a cost.

I know its still early and i only finished my install at the beginning of may, but my pioneer 18k and two 9k head unit is KICKING ****. Absolutely love it.

Like JP said, you REALLY should finish the ceiling and then see how the 14k does. Honestly even if you did finish the ceiling off, i would STILL suggest the 24k. Inverter minisplits can power down to 25% of max easily. So it can throttle down close to 6k easily. The cost between 18k and 24kbtu...

Christ, i didn’t know this even needed to be done! Im on year two with my fuji halcyon, and year one on my pioneer. I think i’ll wait at least another year!

Nice right? Attention to detail makes for a clean install. https://www.homedepot.com/p/1-2-in-0-260-0-375-Strain-Relief-Cord-Connectors-2-Pack-21691/100136271

Metlmuncher, i think you flew off the handle a touch. Just saying. It’s quite common for a/c units in the southwest to be shielded from the sun by way of awnings, shrubbery, or some type of shade maker. I quote from online: At the upper reaches of our atmosphere, the energy density of...

Im a firm believer in Pioneer, now that i installed one 3 weeks ago. It’s quality is comparable to the fujitsu(which i consider a premium minisplit) i installed last year this time on the other side of my house. Here you go. One ton minisplit for $788. Cools, heats, drys. Includes lineset and...
