Depending on the type of grass you mow, a battery powered will not have enough power to cleanly cut. Miss a week of mowing in Florida during the rainy season and even the 7.25hp mower bogs down a little. I purchased a Toro SMARTSTOW 3 years ago. Starts every time on the first pull, cuts clean...

Buffalo tools were hit or miss, kinda like HF now. There was a store near Sumter SC called Rochester Imports that carried their full line. Many specialty tools were available and affordable on a military salary in the early 80's. Only one that failed on me was a 3/4 deep 1/2 drive that I...

I must have gotten the only other good set of those Stanley black and yellow screw drivers.

Are those the stinging nettles you need gloves for? I use the cheap split leather gloves from HF. They have leather on the palms and fingers but are cloth elsewhere. https://www.harborfreight.com/leather-industrial-work-gloves-5-pairs-66287.html

When they build our house, they tied the Hybrid water heater condensate line into the AC line. Having 2 - 3/4" lines feed into 1 3/4" line seems to cause the hybrid water heater to constantly error code for overflow and shutoff. There is no blockage and the lines and cleaned monthly. During...

We have an AO Smith Voltex 60 gal. The first one the builder installed kept overflowing the condensate line (they tied it into the ac line). A local plumbing company came to fix it and shorted it out. AO Smith replaced the unit and had it installed by an authorized installer. No problems since.

I have one of these, fills quickly. https://www.harborfreight.com/3-gal-13-hp-100-psi-oil-free-pancake-air-compressor-61615.html Doesn't seem so loud compared to the 33gallon Craftsman.

The sprayer makes sense if you do not have a place to clean the equipment. HF and other places have waterproof pelican like boxes for dirt cheap. It would seem like they would be mandatory equipment on any long term boating adventure and do not take up much more space than any other container.

Kinda curious why would carefully maintained and stored power tools be any less durable on a boat than on land. I understand the corrosive marine environment, but stored in a pelican type case with desiccant packs should mitigate much of the moisture problem.

I was going to replace the unit with a 2 stage Trane and Hyperion air handler because spending $1800 to replace coils every two years is more expensive in the long run. Thankfully I wont have to, Lennox is honoring the "spirit" of the class action settlement although they tried to weasel out...

From advice given in another thread, I went to the original installer of my AC system when the house was built in 2014 and apparently Lennox will cover my condenser coil replacement, labor and Freon in both AC units.

Based on advice from brewchief, I spoke to the original installer for the builder who said Lennox will cover all the costs if the replacement coil is found to be defective (for these particular units). The original installer apparently installed these units in thousands of new construction...

I would rather pay $8000 to an honest person than $1200 to a crook.

The motor on the second unit is in the air handler. I could probably replace that myself, but the motor is $900. Maybe pull the motor out of the unit being replaced. I am going to call the company that replaced the coil and see if they can get Lennox to replace it. I have no problem paying...

Lennox will never get a penny of my money ever. When a company knowingly sells a defective part and replaces the defective part with another known defective part under warranty, it is not a company I will ever do business with again. This is the (equivalent) system, they are installing a...

Lennox did put defective coils in their lower end "builder quality" units. https://www.evaporatorcoillawsuit.com/Home.aspx $8k is about average for the quoted system and similar ones from other brands.

Lennox use all proprietary parts and retains complete control of their supply chain. The $8k was for a 2 stage Trane, am looking at Rheem to see if that will come in cheaper.

2 story home. 2 units. I am in Tampa Fl. These are builder quality units, will dig up model numbers if I can. The coils that were replaced under warranty were part of the Lennox evap coil lawsuit. Labor still cost me $600 for the coil install. the Lennox coils woudl be around $1200...

I had the Lennox evaporator coil replaced under warranty 2 years ago. The new one has also developed a pinhole leak. The A/C unit is less than 6 years old and came with the house. Does anyone know: 1. If Lennox is prone to problems. The A/C guy said they use very thin copper to improve...
