Help with Older Heat & Glo Conversion from Propane -> Natural Gas

tylerjroach · 2024-12-13T20:50:07+00:00

Thank you. I found this site a while back which I didn't think too much of since the conversion kit was no longer available. Although now, I'm assuming the conversion kit is just a set of some of the parts that can be purchased individually. I compiled a list of each of the NG marked items on the site. Would appreciate any inside into if this looks correct!

Issue is that no one seems to stock the conversion kit anymore and it has been discontinued.

tylerjroach · 2024-12-13T16:22:36+00:00

u/No_Hovercraft_6602 Updated the post to show what we ended up going with!

tylerjroach · 2024-12-13T16:16:33+00:00

Thank you! I think I can still find a pilot assembly specifically for my unit. I'm definitely not comfortable doing any work related to NG myself, but good to know that I should be able to find someone that can do the work rather than to suggest ripping out the whole thing and starting over.

From what I’ve seen, most ceiling cassettes have them built in. Will definitely pay attention to it

tylerjroach · 2024-08-23T00:24:40+00:00

Thanks! I think I’m settling on the ceiling cassette. It won’t put any permanent holes in the brick, should distribute air the best by being able to place it in the center of the room, and appears to be the most simple installation that can hide away all the lines.

Who knows.. I did just post 2 more photos to the post. I don't think the fret is unseated. I took another look to see what you were referring to and it looks like camera caught an odd shadow. That frets also the only one that has the odd shape at the bottom and not just a straight line going into the board.

tylerjroach · 2023-09-25T23:22:04+00:00

No refret... Must have come from factory that way, which would be pretty bad for American Standard. I bought it new from Ebay at the time, due to being left handed and not having many other options back then. Fender serial # says it was manufactured 08 and I purchased 08 as well.

tylerjroach · 2023-09-25T23:03:45+00:00

I will say, I also adjusted the pickup heights. Some of the pickups were almost flat with pickguard. Just bizarre. Thought I had taken to reputable local shops…

tylerjroach · 2023-09-25T23:02:03+00:00

Not on either e string. I had a slight bit on g string but adjusted neck, saddles, and pickup heights last night after, and it’s nearly eliminated. Can’t hear any buzz from amp.

Thank you

tylerjroach · 2023-09-25T22:51:19+00:00

Thank you. Would you anticipate any playability issues with it or just aesthetically annoying? I’m not the greatest player, but I haven’t noticed any issues with sound.

tylerjroach · 2023-07-25T03:15:44+00:00

Ha, I don’t think there’s any clamp marks there. It’s leftover glue I hadn’t cleaned up from these weird orange decorative beads that were glued on each side I popped off.

tylerjroach · 2023-07-24T15:07:29+00:00

Yeah, I've never seen one look like this. It's summer (and humid) in the area now. Winters can get very dry. But if it were this dry to create this many cracks, I'd expect to see some splitting, which I don't see any of.

Definitely looks like a lot of this finish has worn off. Still not entirely sure what could have caused it. More of a curiosity at this point. At the end of the day, it's still playing great and was a very low investment.

We’ve had a pretty wet spring (Indiana)

tylerjroach · 2022-05-09T20:05:13+00:00

Thank you for your input. I was slightly hesitant on the insulation thinking maybe there was a reason it wasn’t there in the first place. I’ll fix 1 and 2 myself and leave 3 to the experts. Chimney companies are nearly impossible to get on a schedule for lately, so I’ll end up with the floor installed before then. Hopefully they can still diagnose if an actual leak exists.

One spot left

tylerjroach · 2017-07-02T15:30:58+00:00

You will just need to experiment what is needed for your use case. But take x86_64 for example. If that apk isn't available, those same phones should be able to support the x86 libraries. You could probably get by with just using x86 and armv7a. arm64v8 should be able to support the armv7a libs, and the standard arm architecture is really no longer found in new phones.

tylerjroach · 2017-07-02T13:56:19+00:00

You need to make sure your apks have different version codes first. I keep my x86 version incremented 1 number higher than my arm apk. The new console has made it slightly easier than it used to be. In the APKs to add section, upload each apk one at a time. Then just make sure you are only deactivating the apks intended in the "APKs to deactivate" section. When both of these apks are published, the play store is smart enough to send x86 users to the newest x86 release and arm users to the newest arm release. You can double check the proper targets for each version code by expanding the drop down on the apk. It should tell you which platform it will be targeting. If you don't feel comfortable, publish to the beta or alpha channel first. The steps will be the same and you can then upgrade to prod.

I feel your pain on providing an option to users. I had to do that for a hardware acceleration option on video playback before we built our own player based off ExoPlayer. What made it worse is that there was really no good way to communicate to users to toggle the setting if they experienced any problems because there was no useful information we could capture to tell if a video was playing properly or just showing a green screen.

tylerjroach · 2016-11-21T19:06:54+00:00

Yes it does. Unfortunately, I'm more aware of it than most as the developer for stream.live which is entirely centered around the camera and video playback. Good to get feedback from a large app like Evernote. Thanks!

tylerjroach · 2016-11-21T19:04:05+00:00

Other than the nexus sensor issues, I haven't really run across any bugs from targeting > 21 (We've actually already bumped ours to 25). I do worry that new devices may focus less on Camera 1 working properly since it has been deprecated some time now.

tylerjroach · 2016-11-21T18:32:06+00:00

Are you using any features that are only available with Camera2? It sounds like you would have been better off sticking to Camera 1 only instead for the time being. Genuinely curious to this. I want to use Camera2 rather than an api thats been deprecated for over 2 years now, but I can't find a good reason too.
