Wow, they do? Really? HomeMoanersHub? Who the hell cares? From
what I have seen, all they are is a portal that tries to make it look
like they are behind AHR which is really a usenet newsgroup. They put
up a decade old question, from a thread that was well discussed and answered
and someone over there jumps on it like it was asked today. It's
probably a bot doing it to increase traffic in an attempt to make the website
commercial and of some value to them.




You think,
*somehow*, that if someone didn't have a direct-vent or chimney-less heater
until now is an idiot and doesn't deserve anything but old and incomplete
information.

The only people who seem to stumble on these old threads and start them
all over again are a few people from HomeMoanersHub. The rest of us
know they are old, answered, like this one. And nothing much has
changed in the way of venting furnaces in the intervening 10 years.
The very first reply told the OP about building permits and following
code, something you seem to think only you brought here. They told him
that while he was here and asked it. He's long gone. IT's not even
clear he ever even cared about the answer. Did you notice that he made
one post, never another in the thread?

It sure looks stupid when you just show up 10 years later, addressing
a question as if it's current. And it's insulting when you then claim
that you suddenly brought up something new, when the very first reply
10 years ago brought up codes, building permits. "Talk to your HVAC
guy, there are code issues" Wow, what new insight!

Not really. It's a discussion newsgroup. You may find an old threads with
a search engine, if you're lucky. But it's definitely not a Wiki type
reference.

To answer the person's question that was just asked. In this case, that
was done 10 years ago. No one is asking it now. It's likely no one will
find it again who needs that question answered currently. But someone from
HomeMoanersHub will probably revive the whole thing again 10 years from
now. Enjoy!
