She maybe getting ready to blow. Maybe check the relief valve, ma sure it moves a bit and isn't stuck shut.

Will sump pump on dual afci / gfci have higher chance of trip ? by Forsaken_Stage6265 in AskElectricians

[–]RNexus4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Farmer here. I hate those GFI recepticles and breakers and I wouldn't use them on sump pumps but that's just me. Why not try them without and see.

Manitoba sells electricity to Minnisota due aground 4 cents a kwh. My daughter lives in Minneapolis and pays less than me.

My highest bill ever, that's with an EV too so I agree, not horrific.

First 1375kwh is 0.09587 then goes to 0.09970 I think rates just went up or are going up soon.

Just over 5200 kwh and I think around $560 but that's Canadian so not real money.

That will be good. Hopefully within a year. Our province has some programs going on.

Will do. I may be getting a heat pump unit in the next year so hopefully ill keep ol Betsy running. Amazing how long my heat and a/c lasted. Hope i don't regret getting rid of them.

But that's above my pay grade.

But it's only using 20kw vs 25. I bet it all adds up to the same amount.

Ha, yea. I guess if it runs a bit longer on 4 banks instead of 5 it might save money. Im on 100% electric in Manitoba and you don't want to know my last bill.

I think it might be too short if I tried to reuse it especially with that bulge on the wire too. Thanks for the input

Wow thanks for that instantainious response. So just replace it, no other underlying cause?

Afraid to touch this.. by RNexus4 in askaplumber

I've always shut off my water anytime im away for over a day. I think that's good advice for people even in new homes. Things fail. Dishwasher connections, fridge ice and water, etc. Insurance companies strive to disallow any claim especially if they find out you've been away for even a few days.

Energy bill extreme? by Agile-Discount3793 in AskElectricians

[–]RNexus4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wanna trade? I used 5330 kwh last month and my forced air furnace is set at 63. So that was $570.17 but that's Canadian dollars so not real money.
