NO Funny you say that though. When I took my son up to PA the other week to make some visits, on the way back to NC I stopped in at DD right by where we were staying for some coffee and a doughnut. Walk in and stand at the register for a good 5 minutes, everyone was busy behind the counter I...

You know your old when... Went to the pharmacy today in the town over. There was literally 5 cars waiting in line at the drive through, and not a single car in the customer parking lot. Parked in the parking lot, walked in, got my prescription, and came back out and there were only 3 cars...

If you use a R410A outdoor unit with a R454B air handler, with at least one brand, it will work (at least for the time being running on more than a couple of months now). Don't ask me how I know...That said, I highly doubt it would work the other way around.

Samsung IMO opinion doesn't make a bad HVAC product, and my understanding is everything is made in house in South Korea. Samsung is now working directly with Lennox, no different than Mitsubishi with Trane / American Standard and Fujitsu with Rheem. The reality however is the HVAC industry is...

It's no different with Media. They do a lot of work for major manufacturers located in the US. However, the one brand I made the comment about was made by another company that I can never spell correctly. Ironically at least two American manufacturers I'm pretty familiar with use them to...

I can speak of one major brand that I consider junk. They however have a unit that I've been impressed with per quality. That unit is 100% made in China. Go figure...

Generally, you will find at least one pressure switch (my experience low pressure) and a lot of them have both low and high pressure switches. I'm not certain why your HVAC guy didn't know, if you have them, you'll find them in the outdoor unit.

Give me one expansion or reversing valve that isn't made in China...

It was rainy, overcast and late in the day and had lightning. Very long story, finally found the my fifth uncle that my son wanted to see where the "family" was buried, along with his grandfather and grandmother (we spent some time looking for all the gravesites ). After we said our prayers at...

Could have been. Out of all the symptoms listed, the only issue from time to time (and not all the often) was a feeling of food being stuck in the throat (I remember that when the doctor mentioned it as to why he would feel that way and my father mentioning it from time to time). Dad was...

Arly Losing a loved one is never easy, but try to take comfort in the fact that Ray was loved. My father was around 5'2, and his "fighting weight" was always around 135 lbs. When my dad was in his early 80's, he got down to around 100 lbs. The last 4 years of his life living with us he was...

It seems many are noticing the same thing my wife and I are noticing... this year seems the count is pretty low so far. We could go through 2 feeders in less than a day. Currently 1 is lasting a couple of days. I think the most I've seen at the feeders this year was 3 or 4, and it was only 1...

I honestly thought the same thing for a very long time...

https://fi.edu/en/science-and-education/benjamin-franklin/national-bird#:~:text=The%20story%20about%20Benjamin%20Franklin,looked%20more%20like%20a%20turkey. What I really want to know is how Ben knew that the Eagle could be somewhat lazy LOL

You do realize that Ben Franklin (pretty famous American) had wrote a letter comparing the eagle to the wild turkey? Mr. Franklin was alive in the 1700's? PLEASE don't tell me that wild turkey's are damn yankees as well:ROFLMAO: Generally speaking, animal species in certain areas decline...
