    High Eff. Boiler--Elim. middle man.

    The link is on the top posting, pex supply. I also want a 100g indirect water heater to supply the wash with hot water. Those are like $1800 but look like they will give me at least 235g an hour of 135f water so probably alot more at 120f. I want to dump the 50-60% eff. palomas and go up to...

    High Eff. Boiler--Elim. middle man.

    Thanks guys. It looked too simple to pay so much, for just the hook up of water , gas, and electricity. The internet guy gives free shipping also. I'm sure it may take a couple of hours to install, but i want to upgrade a few and thought the price was on the ridiculous side. 2x to3x plus...

    High Eff. Boiler--Elim. middle man.

    I am looking to replace a couple 70-80% eff. boilers with a 95% boiler. The bid was $13,200 to yank old one and hook up a new one with an indirect water heater- the water heater can produce domestic H.water along with floor heat thru boiler. The internet has places that sell direct- I can buy...

    Garage Door Springs

    I actually used a spring clamp for almost 5 years after it broke. I also made my own winding bars, to wind the doors or help with the occasional dropped cable. The doors can be really dangerous when winding the springs! Soapy is right , go with springs that have 100,000 cycles and have the...

    Silly New Wash I've seen

    Wouldn't it be hard to make any money, after the slick consultant and salesman got it all. Maintenance costs also sound higher than a single tunnel, but that goes back to the slick salesman/ tech company. What do you think the total cost was?

    Your typical magazine reading accident.

    Mep you are 100% on why not to buy it. I probably wouldn't install a wobble head if they were free. Then when the piston sticks??? I must be so far out i haven't got the kleen scene yet, and now slower delivery, but now am afraid to read unless i find a suitable chair.

    Your typical magazine reading accident.

    Not that many of us have magazine reading accidents statistically speaking or we would probably read less. We wish you well in your recovery, and litigation with the chair manufacturer. What do you think of the wobble head? I still think that the aluminum handles under $10 is more than enough...

    My Outdated Prices in This Troubled Economy! Increase My Prices?

    Why not go to $2 on a one month trial basis. If it doesn't go well go back to $1.75. I know in my climate the bank would own my washes at $1.50. For the dozen that complain give them a free wash and they will feel better also. In the 22yrs in the wash business it was always known to me, the...
