Yep take whatever time/money it takes to do it right even if you have to cover with a tarp until you get a chance to fix it or have someone fix it.

Man that's great to see it running! Nice to have a win now and then. :beer:

As nice as those wood ones are (and there are very nice) I just couldn't do a wood one. Has to be metal. Just my 2 cents. Given lots of thought to this idea but no time to invest. Good luck RD. Could be fun.

Just found your build from a link on NWOL. Nice build!

Back to the engine eye candy! What is the Boss going in? Sorry if I missed it.

Thanks everybody! I have tried several paper style masks and none gave better than o.k. performance. I have a couple half masks but they shift a bit while wrestling myself through my attic. (its really bad) so I'm hoping a full mask might be more secure? I wear glasses but can wear contacts if...

I have some attic work to do and the blown in stuff makes me cough for hours even when I wear a paper mask. Obviously not adequate. I have to wonder if a painting full face respirator would be o.k. to use when working in the attic. My concerns are it fogging up. My attic space is really tight so...

Those are great! Love it. :thumbup:

Warm up? Not in these parts. (Seattle) we will get our three weeks of hot weather split up between July and August. LOL. I do love the DIY stuff but my list is longer than my life expectancy assuming I live till 120. :D

Got home and swapped the old stat back in, got heat back in the house! My installer did contact me and said the issues are in the "installer programing" of the stat. Something not easily figured out. I am happy we have heat! And happy I wired it up correctly. Now to get the new one reprogramed...

Might try that tonight.

Payne was existing Propane furnace. We use to heat by woodstove but went to heat pump for many reasons. Maybe I should push the repair guy to try a different brand t-stat? Makes my head hurt trying to understand how I could have screwed up the install doing one wire(wires) at a time. Unless I...

Just checked the back of each lid. Old and new both wired the same. Both THM5421C. Could I have fried something? I noticed the LED flickered while I was swapping it out. I flipped the breaker but obviously it gets power elsewhere. Hate to throw in the towel but I am tired of this. Maybe sleep...

I get the colder than "cool" air but it is something the stat should notice if the temp is beyond its 3 degree span, at least that is how it was described to me. Therefore the stat is not giving a signal when it should as our system was not switching as designed as it would blow cold air for an...

Propane furnace is a Payne PG8JAA which works great I doubt its a contributor to any of our problems Heat pump is a Johnson Control, York LX series?

Just replaced the T-stat wchich was supplied by the guy who installed our heat pump. We have Propane as a back up system but the whole switch over has never gone smooth. Often(before todays t-stat replacement) it will run and run but not reach the desired temp. So we would switch over to propane...

Ended the suspense of what might be inside. Nothing. Going to scrap now. Fun with Plasma cutter :thumbup: I'll repurpose something else.
