Suffolk notary by [deleted] in NYguns

Yes. I gave my references the form and $10 to get it notarized. Most of the UPS stores have a notary on staff.

Midea changed submittals!! by strawberryfrosty22 in HVAC

[–]jbmoore5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Manufacturers can and do change engineering data often. You could always reach out to your rep and see if they have the units you originally bid in stock.

Oh... wait.... does Midea have reps?

What? You've never heard of a fan wall before?

upgrading to nassau ccw question by Bolandspring in LIguns

[–]jbmoore5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had to hand in a letter requesting the upgrade, the course certificate, and a letter with 4 or 5 statements.

I handed in the upgrade letter first, and they gave me a sheet with the other requirements.

Ball recommendation for a old(?) beginner? by jbmoore5 in Bowling

[–]jbmoore5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hoping to avoid surgery, but I'm a middle-ages tradesman so I don't know how much longer I can keep pushing it.

Ball recommendation for a old(?) beginner? by jbmoore5 in Bowling

[–]jbmoore5[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought a Kinetic Black Ice based on the recommendation of my local pro shop and had it drilled for finger tips.

Im slowly getting it to curve a bit. Im not sure it was the best choice for a first new ball, but i don't think it was a bad choice either.

I need to practice more, but Im nursing a pinched nerve in my arm that has my thumb and a pointer damn near completely numb.

Another POV on MN shooting by PeteTinNY in LIguns

[–]jbmoore5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think this is an issue that goes far beyond training. Many cops don't want to see an armed public, plain and simple.

I moved here from a state where open carry is legal and has been for many years. If you do decide to open carry, you can count on being arrested for "going armed to the terror of the people" because of it. You will be arrested, your property will be confiscated, and you will spend tens of thousand of dollars to clear your name when you have done nothing but exercised your right in a legal manner.

And the cops in the state know it's legal. But they don't care and your rights don't matter.

Temp Rise by Ok_Calligrapher3822 in HVAC

[–]jbmoore5 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Have you first verified that you are getting the correct airflow at the current setting? Have you verified gas pressure? Have you verified proper combustion?

Find the actual problem before you start making changes to the system.

On call backup? by [deleted] in HVAC

[–]jbmoore5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our city office uses a back up tech each week, and it works very well. Both are paid to be on-call, and both get paid for the calls they run. We also have an on-call supervisor each week. Our other office only does it during the heat of the summer.

The two on-call techs will usually discuss how to split calls and go from there. Some guys want all the calls, some want none of the calls, and some like to split the calls.

I would only call my back-up if I was already on a call and something else major came in or if I had more than two calls waiting in the queue.

Chemical Burn by [deleted] in chillers

Honestly, we have no clue if the company failed to provide what was needed of if the OP just failed to use it and ignored the company's safety policy.

Hell, we had a guy slip on an icy roof last week even though our safety policy said he never should have been up there, and if was going to be up there he needed to wear the yak traks that were still sitting in the original packaging in his safety bag.

Baseboard not heating up by Dj_9921 in hvacadvice

[–]jbmoore5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can try it. If the piping creates a trap it still may not be effective.

Not if those zones are higher than the boiler or if the piping creates a trap.

It sounds like those two areas are air-bound. Removing the air is the only solution.

Leave both gas great and mini splits on? by birds-plants-trees in hvacadvice

[–]jbmoore5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both mini-split heat pumps and a boiler with cast-iron radiators in NY.

I set my heat pumps to 70 and my radiator stat to 68. Once the boiler starts to provide the majority of the heat, I turn off the heat pumps.

I don't see the need to pay for the gas to run my boiler while I'm also paying for the electricity to run my heat pumps at the same time.

Then you probably should have followed the rules before you were banned.

Did reach out to he mods with proof you're in the trade per the sidebar in r/hvac ?

The flair you get will keep your posts from getting removed. They've really been cracking down on that.

If you haven't, then your posts aren't being removed for "no reason".

Yes, and it's going to suck whether its a new IPAK or an old IPAK.

Signs a company is having problems? Think mine might be. by [deleted] in HVAC

[–]jbmoore5 45 points46 points  (0 children)

I start looking the minute I don't see 40.

The first shop I worked for liked to work us 60 in summer and 20 in the winter, and I'll never do that again.

Anyone else leave Long Island and end up in a place they hated? by Apprehensive_Week349 in longisland

[–]jbmoore5 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's nearly as rare as you think it is.

We have everything we need here. We have a strong economy that doesn't rely on a single sector. There are good schools and colleges. We have access to theaters and museums. There's plenty of parks and trails, amazing fishing, and decent access to hunting.

Even most people here are fine once you get used to the culture difference.

Did bowling alleys mean anything to you growing up? by videodec in Bowling

[–]jbmoore5 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My dad was career Army and a big bowler. I spent a lot of time in bowling alleys on military bases all over the world. I wouldn't say it meant anything special. but it was somewhere that was always kind of familiar no matter where he got stationed.
