I personally take my grates and flavor bars out and use a pressure washer in my Ducane about once a year. Soak the grates in dawn and water for a few hours and then pressure wash them. Comes out new.

if the hot wings have hop peppers sauce on them, I totally understand why. My wife burned her hands with some hot peppers many years ago, she ended up soaking her hands in vodka to get the burn to go away as the alcohol helps absorb the oil and provide relief for the burning sensation.

somewhere I saw pictures of a place with a 2 gar garage for the daily cars on the main floor of the house, and then a driveway around the side of the house with access to a complete basement garage. This did 3 things, made the house look average from the street, gave a huge amount of space for...

why not use a thermal camera and see what it shows? That is what I would do.

I threw something away that I had held onto for 10+ years. I needed it the next weekend.....

unless there is a safety reason, open the door before you get into the car. We have a neighbor who would start the car before the door is open, then opens the door. I am glad they traded in the gas car for a tesla so CO is not a concern.

something like this? https://www.grainger.com/product/8WUJ4?gucid=N:N:PS:Paid:GGL:CSM-2295:4P7A1P:20501231&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwir2xBhC_ARIsAMTXk86vPZAxLUNscTK1H0wXFPI9NCHvvG-uyPrJhA1vf6D-_0tz7kslP80aApwHEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds

I would guess a good chance that fitting comes out, just make sure there is not a nut inside as that is likely hard to replace.

not seeing your picture, but can you convert the door frame to an exterior style weather-strip. I worked in a vehicle chassis dynomometer cell that has 2 doors in 1 doorway, one opening in and one opening out, that did help with the noise a lot, but may be weird in a house layout.

Here in FL a 4 point inspection is fairly common for insurance. It checks these 4 areas. Roof Plumbing System Electrical System HVAC System My insurance company wanted pictures of the faucet supply lines for the last renewal. They never "required" and updates, but my house is built in 2000...

mastic is often used to seal ducts, along with a mesh tape that is similar to drywall tape. Duct "tape" is not legal in many places to use on ductwork.

I have an attached garage, and call it a garage. If I ever get a detached building, or rent/buy a space somewhere to work on cars, it is a shop. I even call my office warehouse/dyno bay the "shop"

install a lift and actually stack 2 non exotic cars.

The leaking is why I have bought Eneloop for all of the AA and AAA items in my house. I bought flashlights that can use 18650 batteries. I purchased a charger and some good Samsung cells from 18650batterystore.com a few years ago with great results. (there are lots of fake/mislabeled 18650...

While I agree, the last time I tried to give the shop down the street some cash for taking my old antifreeze, they said they could not accept any compensation, something about liability if they were paid for the disposal vs doing it as a service to the community. One of the few times, somebody...

I just take mine out and soak them for about 20 minutes in dawn soap and water, then hit them with the pressure washer.

My "3 car" garage is under 27 feet wide, 1/2 concrete block on each side and 1 block between the 8' and 16 foot doors. 19.5 feet deep, it is a very tight fit. Built in 2000 in a luxury neighborhood. My old extended cab short box silverado barely fit (Front bumper 1/4" off front wall, and the...

Is heating either shop a concern, as that would be a big impact if I lived where it was super cold during winter, as the single car is likely cheaper to heat than the 3 car. Personally, I would love to have a dedicated parts storage garage, that also would keep 1 or 2 project vehicles. Keep...

They are, but most "new construction" use cheap water heaters unless local codes require the higher cost, (but higher efficiency units) or have a local energy rebate that helps cover the difference. I will likely go heat pump if I need to replace mine here north of Orlando FL, but the previous...
