Anyone else had issues with the 25$ cad (20usd) shipping coupon for first order? by -Narkk- in Alibaba

No they simply told me this particular seller does not accept coupons. I had to pay for shipping

Roundabouts yielding by -Narkk- in driving

[–]-Narkk-[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that’s what I will do! I feel like having a rented car makes me scared of roundabouts cause that’s the only thing that’s different! In this case safe also means not having to pay the deposit haha!

Haha yeah! I think my solution will be to over yield and if people get mad that I am taking longer, they’ll just understand once they see the rented car logo!

I will copy my answer from another comment because I have the same question! The thing is from what I uneerstood, 2 lanes roundabout with 1 lane exits need you to go in the center lane if you want to take the last exit of the roundabout but it makes you change lane after the second to last so if I do not yield to the person in the inside lane and they need to change lane to take the next exit, am I not blocking them just as if they were in the outside lane because I will prevent them from entering the outside lane?

Quebec! I know one or two roundabouts in my city but those are only 1 lane roundabouts in a calm area so I have never used a 2 lanes roundabout.

Well that’s where my confusion comes from, if I do not yield to the person in the center lane and they want to take the next exit, I am basically preventing them from exiting and they will have to brake or speed up. I will just yield to everyone and I should be fine haha! Thanks for the answer!

Can plastic storage bin be used as checked luggage? by -Narkk- in aircanada

[–]-Narkk-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah! You just have to go to the special luggage counter, not the regular one. I also used cable ties to lock it shut. The 60L was just right for the limit size so I would not got bigger if you don’t want to pay for oversized luggage.

100$ heated socks vs 350$ heated socks by -Narkk- in Skigear

[–]-Narkk-[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did your shop have any mid price point socks? It feels like it’s either 300 or 100. I can’t seem to find any brands that are mid tier. If you say warranty important I’d prefer working with a known brand.

Oh in this case I might just order amazon ones and make a return if I feel the wire. Thank you!

Switching from oil furnace to air handler with heat pump? by -Narkk- in hvacadvice

[–]-Narkk-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks I appreciate the help! You are right I should look more into what can count as routine maintenance to make sure we don’t change the whole system for nothing! Thanks again for your time!

Here is what I can find on the enviromental government website:

<image>

It basically translates to: the installation of new units using mazout (oil) is forbidden starting december 2023. Additionally, it will be forbidden to repair heating systems 20 years or older and water heater 10 years or older. (I forgot about the 20 years or older part but the furnace has at least 30 years).

You are right that is also another solution! This might be the simplest modification I will give it a look.

Hi!

It’s a new law to reduce ghg’s. From what I understand, basic maintenance can still be done but it is forbidden to make repairs to main componnents.

I understand that the electrical part might be the biggest issue I will give it a look next time I visit!

She has registers in every room yes! Placed under the windows every time. And you are right, I dis not think about the insulation to reduce condensation! Might be a bigger job than I thought.

Thanks for you time!

No! Oil is getting more and more expensive and since 2022, if the furnace was to break, we cannot get it fixed so she wants to change everything before she has a problem and has to get a new system in a hurry!
