ABSOLUTELY NOT. NEVER. MY BODY MY CHOICE. I WILL NEVER LET THE NORMANDY LANDINGS GO IN VEIN. I DESPISE manual J sized systems. My AC is currently specked that way and it is awful. As have been some of my past properties. The system runs all the time when new just to stay at 74*F, register air...

Yes, central heat and cooling. No radiators or hot water. I had baseboard hot water in the early 2000s and it was nice. But forced hot air with an over sized gas furnace makes for decadent heating. I love oversized HVAC equipment. Contrary to what all the HVAC guys will tell you now. I despise...

Ideally, a millivolt draft Furnace. Sadly I don't have a chimney, wish I did though. If I had the option I would take your idea though. With a dedicated through the wall sleeve for the ACs.

Who makes the Speed Queen of Gas Furnaces? Who makes the best 2 pipe furnaces in terms of longevity? Right now I've got a 16 year old Heil h9mpd100j20c2 single stage high efficiency gas furnace and its acting up again. It has been eating replacement parts for years and the insides are rusted out...

There is no sticky or header with common site acronyms. However, I think it is worth a casual debate amongst members considering the amount of new users who come through.

As an example, the SC888N and SC688B seem identical and I can't figure out what is the difference between them. https://www.sanitairecommercial.com/collections/upright-vacuums/products/tradition%E2%84%A2-upright-vacuum-sc688b...

Alright, you've given me a lot to think about here. At some point I think I will be buying a second vacuum in addition to the one I am order now. SEBO, Kenmore and Sanitaire all catch my eyes. The Bissell and Santaire are particularly smittening due to their extreme simplicity and few parts...

Good, but I still don't like the drive motor being controlled by anything other than a switch. The Kenmore also has a bag light that is controlled via a pressure switch and neon light, at least the old model. The Kenmore has a bi-metal breaker in series with the brush roll motor that pops out if...

I tried bag-less around 2011. I returned the vacuum promptly and ran to Sears for the Intuition. Emptying out the container was a desert dust storm and the vacuum lost suction rapidly. The filter would get dirty fast. It was one of those Model T moments of "never again" Forgive my crass /...

Marvelous! Thank you for all the knowledge. I can't thank you enough. I owe you. And thank you for exposing me to the Bissell and Sanitaire. While they might not be for me entirely due tot he lack of hardwood floor cleaning and removable hose they are certainly fascinating designs. The...

Loud, but it lasts. I'd rather tolerate loud for 50 minutes than have a dishwasher that takes 4 hours and will last 1/10th the life of this machine. FWIW, noise can be reduced while increasing washing and rinsing performance by installing a new PSC motor and pump assembly. Though I doubt the...

That dishwasher will outlast any Kitchen-Aid. And it is far more intelligently designed.

The longest lasting dishwasher ever made, by far. These put Hobart Kitchen-Aid to shame. This was when GE was serious about re-claiming the dishwasher market and went ultra crazy over engineering every part of this machine. The cycle time is also super fast, 50 minute total prewash, wash and...

Ok, so it looks like the SC688B also has a disposable bag. But going by the schematic it appears like the big green now has a plastic motor? https://www.bissellcommercial.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/BG101HSchematic.pdf

Wait, the SEBO X4 has the fan before the bag or am I mixing things up? Can the SEBO swallow paper clips? I know my Intution can suck up anything and everything hard as long as it is not to big and not damage the vaccuum. The Big Green appears to come with a bag, and if I ever do go that route...

And, forgive me again lol, but I notice the SEBO has no gasket on the bag? How does the bag slip in, out and fit It looks like the bag could misalign and not seal? The SEBO motor. Is it brush, electronic, induction, ect? I've learned so much thus far. I can't thank you enough.

Well, if the 15 amp breaker takes care of it, it would be much me overkill. The best solutions are those which are simple solving the most problems along the way.

The Sanitaire wears down carpet? I also wonder why the screws for the top cover can't be made to be accessed from the top unless I missed something in the video. Just seems it would make a power cord change out easier. BTW, that motor looks awful. I'd want a better motor.

Silence is consent. But that is what people have been conditioned to do. Be quiet and let others do the thinking for you. Its working. It has never been an easier time to be a trillionaire but has never been harder to be 1/10 of a millionaire.

What breakers did you have at the time? I know what you went through was awful, but it showed that the vacuum motor with breaker provided worked together elegantly complimenting each other to protect a simple, reliability design with great utility. Makes me think of putting a plug fuse in my...
