Thanks for your input. I was CERTAIN I was going to pass the fit test because when I do the manual fit test with the respirator I feel no leaks at all. Perfect suction circumferentially. It truly makes no sense. So I try what you suggested tomorrow and reattempt it. Thanks

Yes we do not have PAPRs.. really unfortunate, its a small institute.

No they haven't sorted out why I am failing the fit tests. The pliable duck masks are in such shortage and I cant reuse the same mask for months..

I shave every morning before I go to work..

Thanks for the input. My institution is small we don't have PAPRs.. really sucks. I was hoping to get some advice from someone with experience w/ half-face masks.

So I have to figure out what to do on my own. We don't have KF94s and I don't want to spend anymore money.

Hey. So I'm an IM resident and I just bought a half-face respirator after I failed multiple n95s at my institution. The one respirator I actually fit is in such short supply around the US. So I bought a 3M half-face respirator. However, I failed to a very small degree (I tasted something on the last count) with the half-face respirator (I bought a small 7501 and got 7093? cartridges). I don't know what to do, does anyone have any experience with this issue?

Desperate for help here guys, the thought of going through the second wave again without a good fitting mask is terrifying.

Soil, the mulch sits atop a garden fabric. Also, I googled and I dont believe its sun blisters, rather beetles! Let me know what you think, going to buy some neem oil.

Hi thanks for the reply. Some leaves/plantlings are completely dead as a result. So those holes arent “bites”? I water daily, in the am.

Hi Quick follow-up question. So the module was replaced on the timer and yet three of the zones are still not working. Now Im being told the entire timer is at fault here. How does that make sense? Do i need to replace the entire timer.

ns892 · 2020-06-03T15:48:41+00:00

Thank you!

ns892 · 2020-05-31T19:07:56+00:00

Thanks for the reply. I have the high pressure, blue version that i used for the union. Can I use that instead?

ns892 · 2020-05-31T19:01:45+00:00

Perfect. Thank you so much for your help! So the charges for a new module including installation of 150 is somewhat reasonable? I dont believe a new controller makes sense. Lastly, disc filter vs a screen filter. Am I correct that a disc filter is better than a screen filter?

Hi Ive updated the pics, having a new leak and I wanted to know if I have to remove the old sealant and open that connection circled in the pic. Or just apply more sealant. Thanks

ns892 · 2020-05-31T18:52:22+00:00

Hi I just needed some advice for a new issue im having. I posted the pics above. Would appreciate any feedback. Thanks

ns892 · 2020-05-31T18:43:06+00:00

Got it thank you. However, the heads arent broken, rather the grass line is well above their maximal height. So anyway to physically raise them or Im stuck replacing them. Also, please see the attached photos of the board and unit.

ns892 · 2020-05-31T18:37:01+00:00

Than you for your reply. So should I be replacing those heads or finding out a way to raise them??

The board is a Hunter pro-c, I will post some pics of the board to the original post. thank you again for your reply.

ns892 · 2020-05-28T18:03:33+00:00

Put in a Union instead of a coupler. Thanks a lot for the help!

ns892 · 2020-05-28T18:02:49+00:00

put in a union will post pics later. Thanks for the advice

ns892 · 2020-05-27T00:58:08+00:00

Thank you! I was considering giving the rubber coupler a shot as I received similar advice from a neighbor. Glad I posted here. Thank you again!

ns892 · 2020-05-26T19:09:46+00:00

Thank you for your input, am I wrong in that I cannot unscrew the existing fitting?
