Love the Z4 M coupes. Never was a fan of the Z4, but I love the coupe. Same with the Z3. Dont love even the M Roadster, but I love the coupe. I have thought it would be my next car, especially with the S54 tuning that has been going on, but for what ever reason, the Z4 electronics are a step...

I am partial to Lennox. We primarily do work on very high end homes, and commercial new construction. For us, we have to be associated with the very best that is available. I would agree to this statement though, I would much rather have the cheapest furnace on the market that is installed...

Wow, I can't wait to move forward on mine. I can't believe that its not the universal choice. Even with cheap porcelain tile, its seems like the superior option over anything in a working garage, and it just happens to look amazing, clean up amazing, and IF something does happen, the simplest...

I will be doing porcelain as soon as I have time. I just need to order the tile. It is PEIV, through body, and rectified. Of all the sample tiles I have seen for a garage, that is smooth enough to squeegee but have lots of traction. I received dozens of samples, I really want the...

Wow, I will have to try Arzel out. Not having to cut holes is a huge deal. I really didn't like the Bladder zoning that used air pressure, this could be a nice compliment to what we already to.

Also, i would say the on the homes we do from scratch in new construction, they have a thermostat 800-1200 sq ft. To get that kind coverage per thermostat with modulation in every zone, you are talking 4-6 separate hvac systems in a 5-6000 sq ft home (i would say the average size of home we...

No, i havent had any experience with the arzel product. Just googled it, looks interesting. We dealt with a air bladder system one called "my comfot zones" and i hated it, and for what it was, way over priced. The advantage of it was you could completely retrofit it from the mechanical room...

I'm headed to the National dealers meeting in Vegas this month, and I think they are unveiling a 25 S.E.E.R. Modulating A/C unit. I have been to their manufacturing facilities in Texas, and met for a few hours with the new product development engineers, and they literally have mad house of...

Yes. 99.99% sure. Its been a while since we have used one of those boards, The Lennox Equivalent has one. We generally didn't use the plenum sensor because when we design the systems each zone has enough air flow to keep the discharge temperatures happy and within spec. Installing them in...

I used to be a Lennox hater as a Trane Dealer for 12 years. My local Trane distribution fell apart, I wandered to several brands, and Landed with Lennox. The thing about Lennox, is that they are the largest purchaser of Aprilaire Products (rebranding with their name on it). My pricing of...

I have used a ton of the redlink wireless zoning on retrofit. The issue I have with their dampers is not of quality, but that the actuators are bulky and much more complicated than the aprilaire's dampers. When aprilaire/lennox came out with their new dampers with the external position...

Awesome. I wish my new found ESP gift translated into communicating with my wife :).

Also, it looks like you have 1/2" of shaft sticking out of your manual damper levers. What you will want to do, is remove that handle assembly, screw a new cover of sheetmetal with a hole just big enough that the damper shaft is carried by it. At that point, you will have much more shaft...

These are the dampers I would recommend: https://www.google.com/shopping/product/3108572508764138278?q=lmb-3-t&hl=en&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_cp.r_qf.&bvm=bv.41642243,d.cGE&biw=1920&bih=965&sa=X&ei=jJ4KUf_MGOXGiwLGr4HgDg&ved=0CFYQ8gIwAA This is the zone panel I would recommend...

Can you take some pictures of the locking quadrants? with only 1/2" of protrusion, it could be difficult. Also, the duct is an odd size. Being rectangular in shape, there should be a nice flat space you can secure the non drive side of an actuator to. Take some pictures and post them, or send...

Get me a few things. 1. Size of dampers or ductwork to each zone 2. furnace model number 3. A/C model number I would consider my self a zoning contractor. On average we install 2-3 zone systems per week. Mostly on our own designs from scratch on custom homes, and even smaller homes...

Other projects on the list are: Build a steel welding cart for both the mig and tig welders with a hoist hook so it can reside upstairs, then lower down when ever I need them. Design and Build an electric actuator system that automatically opens up the aluminum flooring that covers the hoist...

Just over a year ago when I started the project, I just happened to hit a very low point on material prices. Everything now is 10-25% more, and one some lumber pieces, even higher. I couldn't have timed it better. Also, I did not have to pay a general contractor because I had several that are...

Thankyou, and Lol Basically, we have a 3 way switch that switches 4 poles from one input (the remote on the controller) to two separate wires (4 wires each) to the trolley and the hoist. The trick was to find a switch that was simple that could handle the amperage of the hoist. Switch it one...

Jack, Great Video, and ended up seeing the feature of you, the 911, and your garage there also. Loved it. Inspiring. I relate to it as I feel the same passion about the cars in my garage, and could see one day replacing both of them with a vintage 911 frankenstien. These projects and...
