The variable speed is probably saving $15.00 a month, easy.




I doubt it...got anything to back that up?

IF the customer is running the fan constantly, Id bet its easily
saving that much.

Which means more electric. Most electric in America is generated by
Natural gas turbines is is Government subsidized. The cost of Electric
is not cheap when full cost of production and transmission is
considered. A decent hybrid Wind generator is in the vicinity of $2
million per copy. Recapture of investment is based on Elwood financial
recovery theorum.. About 7 years etc. Price of Copper is creating
less windings in motors, thus creating more power/wattage to run them.
Has anyone else noted that large number of blower motor replacements
that are now fueling our service income? If Sammy in Washington keeps
screwing around with wasting our economy.. Well ..lets just say it may
be premature to scuttle your Number 10 Coal scoop. Corn burners are very
popular here. But they take a lot of electric to run them. Corn has to
be clean grade 2 and dried. Pellets will also work..But are expensive
to use in the northern climes. Big women have big boilers, and there
is a lot of heat in those big boilers. ;-p

Well, we could all hop on our bicycle or horse and buggy and head off
to work, the grocery store and all those soccer games instead of using
our gas guzzling suv's too. We could all turn off all those electric
lights to see by and use candles. Maybe unplug that refrigerator?
Believe me, Id love to have a windmill or solar panel array that keeps
me from paying the utility company every month. Id love to fill my gas
tank with water or some magic hydrogen or radioactive pellet and drive
forever. Until that day becomes a feasible reality, I guess I'll just
be stuck doing it the way all the rest of the world does.
By the way, I love my variable speed and when it croaks I'll replace
it with another. Im not 18 anymore. I'll take all the creature
comforts, whistles, bells and buttons that make my life easier and
more comfortable. Besides, buying more "things" is what keeps the
economy going. How are you going to earn a living if those variable
speeds dont break? :-P

I sure hope Sammy in Washington keeps the energy flowing for all these
toys. But it would be premature to bet on it. As for me to continue to
make a living.. I already made a sufficient sum to last me until I am
Ninety. After that I will probably have to Purchase and run a
Whorehouse/Bar for sustenance. ;-p

As for the Economy being fueled by purchasing.. Keep in mind the things
you are purchasing are made in Mexico, China, Taiwan Bangladesh...etc.
The Euro now costs $1.43 USD. Oil is all going to Euro's Even the
handouts we give the Jews are being demanded to be in Euro's. American
basic economies are being fueled by farm exports.. We just got slammed
with large tariffs for subsidizing corn exports and several other
things. Which of course even makes the inflated values worse in America.
The Average family got a $55/mo increase in groceries over the summer.
The illegal Federal Reserve is even faltering. So the "What Me Worry?"
slogan just doesn't cut it. And why are we posting to alt.home.repair..
I thought we had a secret handshake in order to view these pearls of
wisdom? ;-D
