Re: potential for gas leak in enclosed area

If it were my house, and it has been my house(s), I would do nothing. I have installed miles upon miles of gas piping, as so many others have on this sight.

The gas has been installed and tested? Correct!? Then in my house nothing, as in so many others nothing else need be done. I wouldn't worry about it.

Unless of course you have a inner need to do this.

Re: Pumping AC unit down in winter

If you're using the recovery machine anyway, why not just recover all of it? Is the condenser moving to a new location where a change in pipe length will effect the existing charge?

Re: Air Separator degradation...

Its a brass version, correct?

I would take the small cap off to check the needle valve and hinge assembly.

Next open it at the big joint to get to the media inside. Its a glass reinforced nylon media. It should not deteriorate from water. We have seen them plugged with sludge, teflon tape and in one case a brown cotton glove in a large steel separator

Re: How to secure fiberglass insulation wrap?

@EBEBRATT-Ed Im not sure but I think @indierex is trying to add the insulation to make it a little safer for the new baby.

Re: Steam boiler pipe makes water noise

Hello WillS,

Steam piping is pitched to drain condensate properly. If pipe support straps have been damaged, removed, dilapidated, etc. water may collect where it should not be. One pipe or two pipe system ? Pictures help us help you.
