    Tru flate tire inflator

    Any one have any idea why I can't get this to read tire pressure? I took it all apart and cleaned it. Spring in gauge moves free when apart but will not read pressure.

    Mini Split filter box

    Thinking about making a filter box for the indoor unit of my mini split. I would like to use four 16X20 Merv 8 pleated filters. Two on top and two in front on an angle. Do you think this will restrict the intake too much? Has anybody done something like this?

    Wire size for mini-split

    I bought a used Mitsubishi (MUZ-GE18na). I have lined up a local HYVAC guy to charge the system. The installation manual I got online seems to say to use 14 gauge wire on a 220volt breaker. Can I use 12/2 with ground on a 15 amp 220 volt breaker to run this unit or am I missing something?
