Should we go with Everything Pentair?
Comments (15)And btw, adgpoolman, No, I really don't understand what "slower" is really going to mean. Are we talking hours? What is the heat source of a stand alone hot tub? I'm assuming electric heat strips of some kind that probably aren't very efficient either, but I do see the big their advantage of being insulated and retaining their water opposed to a recycling cold pool water....See MoreWall Unit - Should we go light or dark?
Comments (14)Andee - THe unit is 1'6" deep at the right end, and 1'3" deep at the left/tv end. The fireplace has two columns flanking it that are the same depth as the left side of the unit where it meets, so there will be an easy transition point there. Not sure what we'll do with the hearth edge yet... Looks like the consensus is for dark. I think it will work! We also have a dark desk/pantry area on the wall, so when you're looking from the island you'll see a dark wall unit and this dark cabinetry which will relate nicely. Thanks everyone, you made the decision much easier!!!...See MoreShould I Stay or Should I Go Now?
Comments (28)If you move now, you would lose $60k immediately and the future growth potential of your current house. It will take 50 months for you to recoup the loss if you indeed could save $1200/month (assume you will save the amount instead of just spend it on vacation...etc.). In other words, at the 33rd month, you will be in a smaller house, using the alimony you do not have to pay to recoup the loss sooner. If you stay, you have the choice of using the equity on the house for any short term needs. At the 33rd month, all the amount for alimony will be available for you. Being an education-fanatic, I am struggling over your tuition savings. In MHO, it should not be the problem all for you to face, the mother should have to share it too....See MoreShould I stay or should I go?
Comments (16)maackia(Zone 4): If you are really putting this up to a vote, my vote is to keep it. But then, I prefer the "wooded look" to the "formal" look. I go for the majesty of a big old tree rather then something exotic with perfect form. If you decide to take it down later, you can always do it later. Only reason I can see to do otherwise is of you need to clear the space to plant a replacement, or if the tree looks much worse in person. davidrt28 (zone 7): Didn't notice your question. White pine look amazing in the woods up here. I've seen great looking rows of old white pine along the property lines of old farms and parks. Young white pine look great in suburbs. Old ones in suburbs can be problematic. In the woods they kind of screen each other from the wind, and no one much cares if they drop branches. In the open they are more vulnerable to wind, and people freak out if a tree near the house drops branches. A white pine grown in the open can go through an "ugly duckling" phase while they decide whether they really need to lose those lower branches (as they would in the woods) when they have all that light. The transition from the perfect Christmas tree to the majestic limbed up forest giant can look homely if you have to see it out your kitchen window every day. Also they are just too big for most suburban lots....See MoreBecky Harris
