Capacitor went out on home AC a week back, I swapped in one I had on the shelf. Its on the right in the image. Being proactive, I ordered a replacement to put on the shelf, same unit, Jard 12783. Only $10 so nice to have around. New item arrived and its a different size then the original. Is...

NFA = Net Free Area see image Working on correcting some attic ventilation but do not know the NFA of each soffit vent to complete the work. Any idea how to find or at least estimate the NFA of each vent so I can complete vent calculations etc? (home is not a new build etc) Also unsure...

The steel on the roof of my polebarn is slipperier then heck even when dry. Maybe you've experienced this. Old steel not as much an issue due to weathering, but new steel is slick. What footwear do you wear to not slip and fall? Preferably something easy to find and won't break the bank...

Asphalt roof. Does your homes drip edge lay flush on the fascia like in the picture? or does it have a gap behind it so its offset 1/2" or more from the fascia? I ask, as if its flush and not offset 1/2" or more, does rainwater just run down the front of the fasica? (ideally the fascia...

Slab poured last summer 4" thick. Treated w/ 4500 and 8510 Ghostshield (if that matters) Lip of the garage entry has 2 little chunks missing right by garage door, see photos. Driveway is gravel and snow is melting off (still freezing temps here) so the area is dirty in pics etc. Unsure how this...

This assumes the pole barn is detached from your home. Not talking an attached garage to a home. My insurance has a portion called "Coverage B - Other Structures" which the pole barns fall under and it lists a specific dollar value for the 'other structures'. Normal homeowners seems to cover...

The 8510 is unopened, leftover from my project. https://ghostshield.com/product/siloxa-tek-8510/ 4500 bottle is 2/3 full, dilute 3:1 with distilled water. I have 2 gallons of distilled to throw in too (unopened). Done spraying so no need for these anymore else I'd keep them! Can meet to do...

Note the images, I was under the impression every truss needed to sit on top of a notched post like the first photo (to support roof weight, snow load etc), but I noticed some trusses/posts are not this way (2nd photo) Can someone clarify this? I'm guessing there's engineering at work (headers...

In midwest so I get all 4 seasons. Having 2 barn floors poured this summer (~2000 sq ft), each about 4" thick, one w/ foam under (might eventually heat this one occasionally to work on a motorcycle) one w/a simple vapor barrier (poly). Anyway, a side discussion w/ contractors has been around...

EDIT: question is not simply about 'cleaning' and 'powerwashing' siding. Note the actual product details. Thanks! :) - Anyone have any experience w/ a product like this? Does it help restore/protect in any way? https://vinylrenu.com/ This product or something similar. Looking at a home...
