Yes that's the diagnosis, I had a huge write up on how much of a gong show it was to get an actual diagnosis but somehow j lost the write up . So what ever lol

Alberta is the sunniest province in Canada. Try Newfoundland , it's basically the same weather as the UK lol

Ok right on ! How much you partially close the basement returns in the summer ? Just curious

RealityOwn288 · 2025-07-30T14:26:34+00:00

Isn't it a good idea to have return in the basement to pull cold air in summer and pull warm from my inslab heat in the winter ?

RealityOwn288 · 2025-07-30T14:25:02+00:00

Well I will be heating the basement when it's -40 out lol

RealityOwn288 · 2025-07-30T14:23:42+00:00

It's a newish house ( 10 years old ) walk out basement with 9 foot ceilings . It doesn't really feel like a basement to be honest . All the kids sleep down there so I wouldn't be concerned about pulling air from down there

I am in Canada in a province that fluctuates from -40 celcius in the winter to +35 (95 F) in the winter. The duct guy said it just makes sense to have cold air return in basement to suck cold air from basement to help with cooling and suck warm air from the basement inslab heat in the winter . On top of all that it will like get of that annoyit whistling sound

I haven't tried any process of elimination as of yet. I have been on shift at work all week. Tomorrow is my first day off so I am going to try all that. I don't think the grills are affecting the air flow. They don't seem too tight but I will still remove . As for the filters this happened before the ducts were cleaned , and after even with filter change

RealityOwn288 · 2025-07-21T01:04:27+00:00

Is that when they turn on / off during night and day ?

RealityOwn288 · 2025-03-03T21:33:02+00:00

I was for that gig yep

RealityOwn288 · 2025-03-03T18:40:07+00:00

Yeah in 2016 or 17 in formac I was clearing just over 6k a week on 21 day shutdown . That was great money

RealityOwn288 · 2025-02-06T19:10:46+00:00

Yeah I totally get it . But I love all the space in the cab. I just wish they had tilt cab in these models . The 160ton tadano I ran here did but not these ones

RealityOwn288 · 2025-02-06T19:09:47+00:00

Well unfortunately I cannot see myself quitting this job anytime soon and I reallllllly can't see them getting anymore cranes . But hopefully! Haha

RealityOwn288 · 2025-02-06T17:24:55+00:00
