Absolutely, the dealer should be providing you with any information you need to obtain a rebate, which was probably a large selling point. I'm not sure what exact specification document(s) they need, but below are links to the product data of the 355CAV and 355AAV furnaces from Bryant with configuration/AFUE ratings. 355CAV (page 8): http://www.docs.hvacpartners.com/idc/groups/public/documents/techlit/pds355cav.060.04.pdf 355AAV (page 9): http://www.docs.hvacpartners.com/idc/groups/public/documents/techlit/pds355a.40.3.pdf You'll have to copy and paste these links into your browser. However, I would still ask your installer for whatever qualifying documents that need to be presented. These are from the manufacturer but may not be what they are looking for precisely.

"North Safety model 770030" Complete and total overkill for the vast majority of 'old house' work. A high quality disposable with an exhale valve, twin straps, and a formable nose piece is all you need. The vast majority of safety gear and standards are written for occupational exposures of 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. that is why OSHA (Occupation Safety and Health Administration) writes them, and they do NOT alply to individuals in their own homes. There are a few VERY dangerous things you can work with, some that no mask is rated to stop (some auto paints come to mind that require positive pressure breathing gear for anyone using them). Methylene chloride paint stripper is well know to be dangerous to anyone with compromised heart blood circulation (it acts like CO in the body and ties up the bloods ability to carry oxygen). A half face mask is overkill for the vast majority of DIY type jobs unless you have a known sensitivity to something you are using like epoxy amine sensitivity). Just plain old dust and dirt is irritating in high doses for many folks. Your lungs will clear it out in a week or two. If you have no other symptoms, tincture of time is likely the cure.

this is just a remark from my vet: "if i didn't de-claw cats, many of my clients would either get rid of their cats or have them euthanized". now, i have a cat and he is not de-clawed and he really is not a huge scratcher/ripper. he has he's posts and cardboard scratchers and his happy with those. so i don't have any issues with furniture being destroyed. but i do understand his point of view, b/c that would happen. i would rather have people keep their cats than have them destroyed b/c of scratching. i don't agree with it, but its better than the alternative, i guess. my bigger issue is having your cat outdoors and killing wildlife. do a little research and see what a huge negative impact domestic cats have on wildlife. cats are meant to be indoors. wildlife do not "know" that they exist and have no natural instincts to be aware of them. even if your cat has a bell on, that does not register with wildlife. what natural predator has a bell on?? its illegal to have your cat outdoors in our neighborhood. if your cat is picked up and u go to the shelter to retrieve it, you are fined for having your cat outside. so please, think about it and keep your cat indoors. if u provide enough toys and stimulation, your cat will be happy, live longer and have less diseases..... in response to the OP,, no, i don't know what kind of rug to recommend, sorry

I mostly use newspaper and corrugated cardboard (CCB) and the occasional cardboard. Newspaper and cardboard can go through the shredder but not CCB. I use CCB to line the sides of my bins (ribs going vertical). In a large bin (2' x 4') I use 3 layers, smaller bins less.. This help absorb extra moisture, add extra air and give worms a place to hide or help get cocoons off their neck. In a couple weeks time or whenever a layer started to break down, pull that out and replace with fresh pieces. They will be very easy to rip by hand into strips and these have been primed to be perfect bedding. When lining the bin, I cut the CCB (easy to cut along the grooves/ribs) in about 8" pieces width by whatever length could be accommodated by the depth of the bin. The 8" is important because it will make it easier when pulling the damp/soggy one out and put the fresh one in. I can use bigger chunks for the 2ft x4ft bin, easier to manoeuvre the contents. HOWEVER, I have to warn you that CCB is also a favourite breeding place of Fungus gnats.
