I've thought about my response and there's one other caveat to consider. Do you know if these filters are bypassing or not? A bypassing type filter will divert water around the element once it...

I'm not sure I can give you a definitive answer, but maybe some pointers. There are 2 basic types of gas burners; an induced draft like your furnace that uses a fan to force air into the burner,...

Glad to hear you solved the issue.

I would highly recommend installing a tee fitting at the inlet and outlet, and install a pressure gauge in the bullhead of the tees. Those 2.5" X 5" filters have very little surface area, and coupled...

The elevation standard for rating gas appliances is 2000 feet. At 10,000 feet that will absolutely affect the furnace. Don't try to compensate by adjusting the gas pressure up. At high altitudes, the...

Hello and welcome to the forum.

I'm not a fisherman and can't offer any advise on the fishing, but can add some about the area. If you're just looking for a quiet getaway, fall is not the time to...

Electrolytic capacitors, which the soft starts have, all have a shelf life. The clock is ticking if they are being used or not. Typically the life span is between 2 and 10 years. I believe Micro Air...

I see the Coleman algorithm as a really good thing. It might take a heat pump a couple of days to make up a 5 degree differential even with outdoor temps in the 40s. I think it's safe to say that...

Remove the outer cover and check for cleanliness. The screens aren't small enough mesh to prevent insects from entering and building nests. Use a soft bottle brush and shop vac and clean out the...

I don't have a third AC but would like to offer a suggestion. I'm pretty certain all units that come "prepped" for the third AC only means the power circuit is roughed in and there's a roof cutout...

I also thank you Clark & Peggy for the information. This actually makes a lot of sense. I've been a doubter of the "Blade system" since I've first seen it. I wonder if they have modified the duct...

This seems to me as more of a "knee jerk" reaction rather than "intentional".

I watched a video from Keystone not long ago and they were explaining their duct system and their improvements. The...

If it's on the internet, it has to be true right? I'm waiting to see if Deere and Cat recommend dielectric grease for their pickups.

I personally believe you're fortunate it's 120 volts; there are many more options available. I have a 2017 model that had a 120volt fan that I replaced a couple of years ago. My choice was a Minka...
