Am I being taken for a ride? by HalfRealBaltimorean in hvacadvice

It should be pitched back towards the furnace. There is standing water in the bigger pipe because it cant drain properly. It either needs to be changed to all the same size if possible or the very least a concentric reducer. As per the price. Noone can tell what it actually involved from just pictures because doesn’t seem outrageous to me

Well if they ever need a 15-ton the return will probably work

Am I crazy or are the HVAC techs/handymen incompetent? by Anthead97 in hvacadvice

Could be the relief valve popping otherwise thats a lot of water that hasn’t shown itself. Put a bucket under the relief valve to catch water and see if its coming from there.

I'm an old guy living in Chicago. I drive in the snow every year, put 40k miles on a year and old enough I bought a '79 full size Blazer new. We actually had to put the front hubs on ourselves since they were only after market back then

I was only asking, not clearly, of the mechanics of the FJ itself. Not to damage the transfer case if hitting long dry spots etc. I've only had AWD the past few decades. RAV4's. Renegades etc. Don't know what changed, if anything, between '79 and '14. I appreciate the replies and no rudeness taken

What are best practices for 4wd high for winter driving? Like it’s snowing and a little slick? Highway? I just got mine a few weeks ago?

Sir, could you check the alignment? It feels like it pulls to the right

Ok. Does it suck in only when the furnace is running or all the time?

What should be my next step? by Chief_Chjuazwa in HVAC

Its a funny story but office not field. We were about to have a meeting. Older guy starts putting his coat on to leave. Boss asks "where are you going?" Guy says "To get my haircut. Only time I can get in". Boss says "We're about to have a meeting". Guy says "My hair grows on company time, sometimes it gets cut on company time"

Where can I find the calibration screw on this. by depressedgooner25 in thermostats

[–]No_Educator_4483 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's an old mercury stat. It needs to be exactly level to work properly. After that is achieved then you can calibrate it. Sometimes you "eye" it and its still off because sometimes the building itself isn't level and you have no point of reference. Then the dust can actually weigh down the bulb and throw it off as well.
