Good morning!!!!

[Popgadget]

watched several videos on taking sub cooling readings on AC unit, since mine use TXV valve. nameplate does not list expected value though.
Finally just decided to call a guy to come look at it. downstairs unit starting to freeze the evap coil.

There is usually a chart either in the units documentation or on a sticker inside, the sub cooling value is dependent on inside temp (dry and wet bulb for RH) and outside temp. Absent the chart, there are apps that can provide a generic value. Having a sight glass on the liquid line leaving the condenser is a big help for quick evaluation.
A frozen evaporator is indicative of low refrigerant or low airflow. Make sure all returns are open and not blocked and the filter is clean.
Having a tradesman look at it isn’t a bad plan, but keep those things in mind as you watch him troubleshoot it to verify.

I did replace the filters yesterday as they needed it, that’s when I noticed some freezing, not bad freezing

Good (Tuesday) morning. Overnight Low of 6.4C and it's presently 14.0C, clear with a very gentle breeze.

Yesterday's 'tip' run went well as I included some gash (Navy slang for trash/garbage) from the shed. Surprised that the cost of dumping had gone up on the first of the month. Oh well, life goes on.

The Wine Faeries did indeed drop a 'bonus' case (14 bottles) at the PO.

Nothing planned for today. That's about it, take care all.

Nice!

Sassy does not like the heat and humidity. Goes outside does her thing and back at door to get back inside. No car trips. Way to hot.

Same for me!

Working on pump station trainers at work. Still don't have all my fittings. Clear PVC is pricey! ka ching a ling!
PS. If you ever try to install clear PVC for a situation that you need to see whats happening inside the pipe, be sure to cut it with a band saw and not the ratcheting pvc cutters. It is much more brittle than white PVC.

Wifey made home made potato salad today. I had to pick out the raw celery....only like it cooked (like with a pot roast). Not sorry. Told her please next time to scoop me out a scoop before she adds raw celery. And definitely no Dijon mustard either. Gimme the cheap yellow stuff.

My son slow smoked some really nice pork chops on the Pitt Boss. They were delicious and had that smoke ring that you can see on the cross section. I believe they cooked for almost 3 hours at 250F. Prolly need to buy another bag of pellets.

We had Mexican food after church yesterday. It was delicious. The hot sauce and chips were awesome. Back to my diet.

Prayers for our team. Bupps and Holly, Ted and Dona, M7040 and wife, Dftodd's family. Our nation, Israel and Ukraine.

Coffee is done brewing. 67° with fog this morning. Heading to 88° with partly cloudy skies. Did some more work on directional light for Mule. Got switches mounted and tested wiring. It nice working the garage. But when I went outside it was like walking in to a wall. Went into house. Couple hours later Let Sassy out and humidity had dropped off. Decided to cut grass in front yard. That was enough for the day. Thunderstorm came thru about 3:30 and dropped .41" rain. PT this morning. Then will cut back back field if it is not to high in temperature and humidity.

Everyone stay well and safe.

Good Morning All.

I don't understand why my local state liquor store doesn't have wine faeries like Wagtail gets.
when I asked the guy at the counter where his wings were, he looked at me funny...
How come the Tasmanians get all the fun?

actually our state liquor stores are usually very good, and have a great wine selection.
having had an alcoholic mother I never drink at home by myself. When I go out, fine, and usually I give
away most of the wine I buy. Always thought I was susceptible to dependency, so never tried any of the
more interesting choices out there. Likely a good idea. Life is tough enough on our bodies as it is.

Good Morning,

Working outside and hiking in this heat and humidity has been rough, but we are getting it done.

Billy, good to hear you back on again !

like to get my hands on a 22-250, but the gun safe is uncomfortably full

FWT, I have the Ruger Model 77 stainless barrel with the laminated stock and scope. You can drive tacks with it at 200 yds ! Deadly ! Great varmint gun IMO
