I was really young but I remember the Palm Sunday outbreak. I'm in NW Ohio.

How is air getting into the bathroom? If you run a shower and the bathroom door is shut it's pretty hard for air to get into the room. Air in=air out. If the room is sealed you can have 100 cfm fan but if it can't take in that much air it won't matter. What happens when you run the shower and...

Welcome Art. Is so are you part of the Vandelay Industries fame? So which side is the rotten side of Washington? I've been there a few times. Flew into Seattle and drove to Pullman and both sides seemed nice to me. Although I must say once you're east of about Wenatchee there isn't much there.

I had dozens of floor coatings applied at work over the years. The best, most durable were usually trowel down materials ofter fiber reenforceed at any joints. This was mainly chemical protection and often forklift traffic. As was mentioned prep is everything. The best preps were shot blasting...

Ah yes, another wise member of the happy wife, happy wife club. Looks like you have a great place.

So what about organic pesticides? There are many.

Won't the foam get mashed down with a heavy weight especially with a had truck or wheelbarrow? As far as the fix for the mower tire I'm with havasu. I'd put a tub in it. That's what I did with my wheelbarrow. Otherwise I'd take it off the mower and air it up and put it in water and find the...

Hi I'm the OP on this tread. Look back at the link on my post #4. I haven't tried them but I like the idea for the surround issue. As for the tile shower my mother lives in an apartment and needed a grab bar in a tile shower. The owner insisted on doing the work. I bought the bar and they used...

Hate that! Problem is once you bite it and it swells a little it's easier to bite it again.

They did some work on our road 2 years ago. It's only 2 miles long and doesn't get much traffic. That did a little patching and the a chip and seal over that. It's a little bumpy. One of the township trustees delivers stone for me occasionally. He was here when they were working on it and...

So today I'm shopping for a new wall oven. My super deluxe, American made professional model Viking shorted out last night as I was finishing dinner. Thing cost a fortune and is only 8 years old. I put $1500 in repairs into it about 3 years ago. New element was $500 and failed within a couple...

That is what I was thinking. A 4" diameter duct is 12.56 square inches area. A 4-1/2" x 3" duct would give you that plus a little so a 3"x6" should be plenty. You can also buy oval duct for inside walls so maybe you could find one that works. Transition to 4" round might be harder to find. Found...

Haha looks like someone was in a hurry.

I have been working on project to replace 2 furnaces in our home. We are in NW Ohio and have forced air and central AC. One guy I had out suggested we put in a heat pump leiu of an regular condenser. He suggests that would supply much of the heat requirement as well as the AC thus saving LP. The...

$70 is really good. Around here it's more like $125 just to show up at the door for a service call. You'll also want to clean the fins on the condenser and straighten any bent fins.
