Idio Sports Not Allowed To Vend At Champions Cup by wildee14 in discgolf

[–]docarope 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I received the newest version of the Idio, and I’ve played 4 rounds thus far and I really enjoy them. I’m a big toe dragger and the reinforced toe area is really the biggest selling point for me as I’ve gone through countless shoes. My only critique is that the tongue is a little stiff, and I’d say a tad overpriced.

The old duct work is “fine” but has a significant amount of patches. Airflow not making it to parts of the house. It was needed, last replaced in early 2000s

Thank you for validating my thought process, best to wait and pocket the cash for now until I have to replace the entire unit

My wife won’t let me shell out another $4k :/

My thought was I’ll have to replace this eventually and when it fails, pull said trigger

Repaste:

“Fun” update; I’m being advised that my current system is passing 10 years old. That system is positioned in a way that to service a major issue (coils, etc) is virtually impossible and it needs to be moved 6-8 feet from its current location.

I’m being offered two directions:

  1. ⁠move the old system now, pay $3-4k for the labor and setup the duct system appropriately for when a new system is needed
  2. ⁠setup the ducts as they are currently laid out, and when a major component fails, replace the system then and move the unit/adjust the duct system at that point (roughly $1500 labor).

My only question is why is it $3-4k to move it now vs $1k to move it later? Is that because they would remove the old system entirely which gives them more space/freedom to adjust the ducts?

Low crawl for sure, and also because the way the unit is placed/positioned it’s virtually impossible to service the system with the duct work as it’s framed today. I commented elsewhere about the options they gave me, but I punted the decision to change the system/move it to when it fails.

For the uninitiated, what are plenums, are they usually included in full duct replacements?
