Oh yea I forgot you live in the land of sand and sun. What up FM? How's it going down there?

 

Spent the last three weeks starting up a new Power Plant peaking unit in a miserable and cold place called Braintree, MA...just outside of Boston. Sometimes I used to consider moving north for some mountains and seasonal weather changes....not anymore.

F'n May up there and there was days where it was 40s w/rain and wind.....F THAT.

Takin the day off work today, to tinker with my skiff and ktm.......the lil klx doesn't need any work as usual

 

Good to hear from you. Take some pics of what you are doing, we need more stuff besides the bikes on here. Its nice to see what other stuff the members are doing. Peace, I gotta go get my 5th cup of cofffffffeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee ee!!!!!

 

True dat......just checked over here and am surprised at the lack of posts. Place is dead.

I'll post a thread of what I'm doing today, decided to build my new computer instead of fixin the skiff ....this ought to be worth a few laughs.

 

Haha nice. Hey I just found out that Bryant bumped up the warranty for all these furnaces from 5 years to 20 and all three of the units that have failed here was not my fault! That makes me feel better. Hopefully we can get $1200 back on each of these three units. That's something huh?

 

Well that's great Deej, but we never thought it was your fault. You just naturally have a guilty concience dont you?

 

Make sure and adjust the cfm of the blower and the W.C inches to obtain a proper Temp Rise deej. Condensing furnaces will last longer as well with what you have already mentioned. You pulled an upflow furnace, so make sure that the AC pan was not overflowing causing premature heat exchanger rust/slime. Have fun

 

Well I got the new furnace installed this morning, here are a few pics.

Furnace going back in. Man these things are heavy, close to 200 lbs.

Setting the gas pressure.


Good Flame


Done!




From the gas piping, the electrical. thermostat, air in and out, duct work, and setting the pressure, it took me close to 2 hours. Still way cheaper than having the furnace guys drive out an hour and back. They have included a check up of my work tomorrow since they will be in town anyway. Now I need to go make sure the IP thermostat still its programming.

 

Nice!!! and the place is still standing wooohoooo

 

Wow Cool deej or should i say HOT......lol
