Like to lower your Air Conditioning Utility Bills?
Like to lower your Air Conditioning Utility Bills?
Look at all the ways you can to reduce the heat and humidity load, caulk, weather-strip, and insulate, to keep the heat and humidity outside. Have a manual J heat load done and consider slightly under-sizing a replacement condenser. If you have an older furnace, there may not be enough airflow through the evaporator coil. Have all of the ductwork, diffusers, return-air grilles and filter areas checked and properly sized, the ductwork must be properly sealed. In cold climate, consider replacing the furnace with a new high efficiency condenser furnace. Then replace the central A/C system using a TEV refrigerant control on the evaporator. By slightly under-sizing the condenser and making certain you have an optimal and balanced heatload on the cooling coil during normal run-time conditions, --the unit will have a much greater BTU/hr heat transfer output during average run-time conditions! With a properly sized system and proper evaporator airflow you will have consistent optimal nominal capacity heat absorption and removal, coupled with longer run-time cycles. Just my experienced 'opinion' (only). - udarrell -- Air Conditioning Efficiency http://www.udarrell.com/air-conditio...fficiency.html |

Yes, "I knew better," --been posting elsewhere since around 1996 Thank you for bringing it to my attention. - udarrell -- Air Conditioning Efficiency http://www.udarrell.com/air-conditio...fficiency.html |

IMO, best to leave him alone and only give him guidance where it is truly appropriate is all. Otherwise, this newsgroup might lose yet another potentially valuable asset. -- SVL |

I read the NGs to glean helpful information and ideas.
It seems a waste of space to be constantly intimidating those who post. Then, others have to use storage space defending the intimidated. These NGs ought to be about getting problems solved and garnering ideas to save needless expenditures. I don't want to intimidate anyone, all I want to do is learn from other contributors. No one is compelled to read any of the (attributed as non-sense) that I post or publish on my Web sites. However, if you apply some of the information to Air-Conditioning servicing, you might find the results interesting. - udarrell - Darrell -- Air-Conditioning Efficiency - Optimizing evaporator Coil Btu/hr http://www.udarrell.com/air-conditio...ator-coil.html ============ "PrecisionMachinisT" wrote in message ... wrote in message ...

If he wouldnt post it as if sounding like a spam message that would be a good start. ========= Well, to me, --it sounds more like a TV Commercial. ("However, I would like to find and know every cost-effective way possible to reduce my utility bills and save precious energy resources.") I don't have anything to sell and don't make a penny for any information or useful ideas they might use. Electronic junk mail or junk newsgroup postings. Some people define spam even more generally as any unsolicited e-mail. However, if a long-lost brother finds your e-mail address and sends you a message, this could hardly be called spam, even though it's unsolicited. Real spam is generally e-mail advertising for some product sent to a mailing list or newsgroup. In addition to wasting people's time with unwanted e-mail, spam also eats up a lot of network bandwidth. Why is a post unwanted or a waste of storage space and time? If a post has potential value to the NG readers and is not direct advertising to sell, a product or service for profit, then I doubt it fits any definition of spam I am aware of. Unwanted responses to non-spam posts' could be considered spamming the NG for selfish purposes. Signature links are permissible in NGs and do no harm, as those not interested don't need to click and read the linked pages. I am NOT condemning you for criticizing me! However, it is considered bad conduct and moderated NGs often bar such poster's from their NGs. -- Air-Conditioning Efficiency - Optimizing evaporator Coil Btu/hr http://www.udarrell.com/air-conditio...ator-coil.html |

Stick around Darrell.
It is obvious to me that you know more than the guy who is blasting you! If he had read your entire post, he would have realized that your post was not spam. If he can't tell that, than he should just be quiet and listen, so that he will learn something. There is nothing in your post that has not been field tested by someone. It will be valuable advice for many less knowledgable people on this group. Stretch |
