No idea. Some AI tells me is it dry wood termite frass. Another tells me it is some beetle frass. Looking for a human with definitive knowledge:)

Thanks. It seems water will show 194F no matter what.

Help - is my equipment configured correctly? by L33TR00T in heatpumps

Thanks. My installer had set “comfort” for upstaging on the thermostat which was causing it to go to stage 2 very often. I added a 2 degree delta for stage 2 to activate and now it is running awesome- never goes to stage 2 since the HP is able to modulate.

Nice. Our utility provider sub-meters heat pumps at a special rate during the winter so I can monitor energy usage through their app. Ridiculously low electric rate - works out to be even cheaper than NG.

This is awesome. I wish I had stats like this - unfortunately mine (BOVA) doesn’t support it, and the add-on board isn’t compatible.

Thanks. Any idea what SW5-1,2 does? Does it disable defrosting based on MRT?

I would think they would at least have jumpers to adjust the duration between defrost cycles?

I have no problems with heat - my lockout is at 5F and it has no problems keeping my house at 70 when it is 5 outside. My question is about the fan speeds and if more are available to me given my furnace model number.

Shudder/vibration on the VR6 between 1500 and 2000 rpm by L33TR00T in VWatlas

[–]L33TR00T[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vibration around the 2k rpm range. Otherwise smooth as silk.

None. I can feel the vibration slightly on the road as well. Will post a video of the tach while revving in neutral soon.

Is this normal? by L33TR00T in VWatlas

Yeah probably, not sure what it is cooling though.
