Instant coffee?!?
Comments (1)and then i see this post down the street... http://forums2.gardenweb.com/forums/load/organic/msg0511550811285.html?27 Odd, i did a search and this did not come up. Hmm Still, no way would i actually spend money on such a thing. Here is a link that might be useful: coffee and potato water...See Morewhy are all the etf/local group 3s purple??
Comments (5)I've checked COTW a few times. I actually popped on there this morning after I posted and I think I need to remember to LOOK before I post. Went BACK to the store today and bought Rouge Cardinal and Comtesse de Bouchaud. They also had Hagley. I think I might get it next time I'm in town. This is so sad! I'm going to quadruple my # of clems in one month!!! It's ok though ;) I'm getting a jump start on landscaping the house we're building....See MoreBig price gap
Comments (3)Honesty cannot be measured by price, neither can competency. Its likely the cheaper of the two is attempting to get more work, by doing only part of the job. An experienced shop, that has learned to do this repair correctly will be flushing the system if possible or replacing the condenser if it cannot be flushed. You may also see the expansion valve or orifice tube listed in the estimate. As well as an in line filter, and a full oil charge. (Flushing removes the old contaminated oil) So you must compare line by line items, not the final price. The shops responsibility is not only to you to do a permanent and correct repair the first time. They have that obligation to the manufacturer of the compressor, who will require all of the steps that I briefly outlined to honor any warranty on the compressor. The $1200 estimate does appear more in line with what it genuinely takes to do this repair correctly....See Morerecepticles and outlets on a 20A circuit
Comments (6)A bathroom should have a 20A circuit. Note that only things in one bathroom can be on that circuit, or else only receptacles from multiple bathrooms on that circuit and the lights & fan on other circuits. The 15A switches are fine for loads that don't need more than 15A no matter which breaker size you have. You should be ok with the power coming to either switch and daisy chained to the other one. Some electricians prefer and a few jurisdictions require you to pigtail short wires to the switches from the incoming hot all in a wire nut. The NEC does not require this except for special situations that I don't think apply to your job (primarily the neutral of a multiwire 120/240 circuit). But whether or not you should be doing this, it is not related to your tripping breaker except as it might have added to confusion on which wire was which. The tripping breaker says you have a short somewhere due to miswiring the switches or else downstream at the light and fan, or maybe a hot wire is touching neutral or ground. I would start be disconnecting the loads from the switches and trying them one at a time to see which causes the problem. Next I would go to the light or fan and disconnect its incoming hot to see if it was the device or something like a nail in the cable running up to it....See Morenjbuilding143
