    Deck advice for guy

    Thought about the ground level patio route. That tan "box/closet" top the right of the slider door is where electric meters and and a lift pump control system are housed. The lift station itself is below a hatch and that is off camera to the right. The lift sends sewage to the big sewage...

    Deck advice for guy

    Thanks. It faces southeast - so that corner warms up quickly until early afternoon then shade would kick in. Ideal in a way. Cool in the evenings and afternoons in that corner. I live north of Fargo - not in city limits. It's a poured basement (Camrud Foss) and has only a few hairline cracks -...

    Crow vs Raven

    Anybody who lives with crows in their area will recognize a raven quickly. The size alone is rather stark to an outdoorsman.

    No more messing with the clock in North Dakota

    I'm surprised that you're surprised that I was surprised. It was simply not a thing I've seen happen on either side of my family. I saw kids "move back home" on occasion. But now I see parents following their adult children. Not good or bad necessarily - just a wildly different trend that...

    Water Heaters: Tankless vs Traditional

    donโ€™t think electricity rates have gone up much like gas has right - even though the hot water and return line are both insulated they lose a lot of heat - so you end up heating the house with your hot water heater - which in the winter isnโ€™t too big a deal but come summer itโ€™d be a total waste...

    Water Heaters: Tankless vs Traditional

    So - here's the effect of my gravity loop. The green usage is "normal" electricity meter - and the orange is the off-peak meter that measures only my water heater (in the winter anyway). Guess what day I turned the valve on for my gravity loop? Turns out that 3/4" return line is maybe...

    thought about that - but running a cable/rope under a buried slush puddle seems rather challenging
