  • Poor...but very, very cool!

    Part rant, part rave. New stuff, cost too much...but I got value...still makes me feel sick though...not to mention I AM sick (flu-ish stuff).

    Yeah, yeah, rambling.

    House. Repair. Expensive.

    Gad....

    Oh, you poor people in Texas with your costly air conditioners.

            Hi Daniel,
            so what did the original installers use for ducting? I'd always supposed that if the HVAC guys didn't use galvanized sheet steel God would strike them dead.

              Yep, new ducts all galvanized, made-on-site, then the installed duct sealed in some sort of plastic...then insulated with a foil covered insulation.

              Looks like a good job.

                I feel your pain, but in light of a predicted 90 degree week (yes, it is Novemeber in Texas), you will soon enjoy the fruits of your labor, or your checkbook. Having just recently moved into a "energy star" rated home, I am waiting to see how the utility bills stack up against the old house. Having popped for the "ultra efficient" 16 seer ac/heat syatem, radiant barrier in the roof, two stage, on demand heat system and door that would make you ears pop when you slam em, I am hoping my electric bills will stay down. I did the same as you, figured the payback is about 6-7 years. So, I guess the new bike is out for a while?
