to add context to why we did this, this is in a school that was built in 1991 and was equipped with F40T12 twin tube fluorescent fixtures and some are paired with a remote emergency ballast (the one in the picture is equipped with one). we were doing some LED retrofits to replace the aging magnetic rapid start ballasts. We have a fire inspection coming up so we did a check to see if we would pass, found out those remote ballasts do not like LEDs and won’t attempt to run them and we had to convert the fixtures with those emergency ballasts back to fluorescent in order to be in compliance with the fire code. We used T8 instant start ballasts as that is what we could get cheaply and quickly. The T8s are much brighter than the LEDs and I am happy that fluorescent lights are here to stay For as long as we can maintain them.

I have this ceiling tile that is morbidly water damaged from condensation drip from the chiller water pipes above. I have to remove it as it has mold on it and I really don’t want to remove the sprinkler or set it off.

my dad has had this old snapper mower for over a decade and has only used a few times. he got it from my grandma when she got a new mower. this mower does not work and is missing parts, the engine turns over and has compression. he wants to get rid of it, sell or scrap. It’s from the 1990s I think.

can anyone explain this. what I was going to say before my brother interrupte was the units coils get fully cold when set to dry. none of my units are freezing up.

I know the name and who wrote it but my mystery is where can I find it. the song is a walk in the park by xctome video productions. i furst discovered this song in this YouTube video https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nUZ-IP3m3uM&pp=ygUZQXJ2aW4gc3BhY2UgaGVhdGVyIG9pbGluZw%3D%3D&ra=m (song start at roughly 2:00) but I can’t find the song anywhere else.

2.5/5 it’s a meh. typical lowest bidder stuff.

this plant is located at the former main office for a nursery wholesaler that had been closed since 2011. My dad bought this place in 2019 and we are in the process of fixing this place up.

I can’t even understand this. this happens to be sloppier than poorly made sloppy joes.

still works all these years later. I have no idea how old it is but I bet this is either late 80s or early 90s.

it’s long and kinda confusing but this is free knowledge on how to treat your new window ac like royalty and have it be truly energy efficient. this guide applies mainly to Midea made units but it will work for any unit with up down vents, auto fan mode, and a filter.

this happened at our old house we moved out of. we are actively trying to keep people out so they don’t die

this is a 1988 whirlpool 10000 Btu air conditioner. yes this thing did fall out of the wall. she is going to need a lot of work when the project begins
