[BaldLoonie]

My back started hurtin' just thinking about U removing this monstrosity!

Can you imagine the gas bills feeding this sucker?

[tinner73]

better check to see if it fits through the door. we did one we had to cut up with a torch. that looks HEAVY!!!!!! ask for another raise right before this job. :D

[bennytec]

i hope it has asbestos
so i don't have to remove it lol
were going with a Variable speed to cover the 12 inch ducts
should be fun the boss said its my "project"

[bennytec]

i hope its has asbestos so i don't have to remove it.

[Senior Tech]

Looks like it's ready for lift-off to mars...

[HeyBob]

Benny,

For $7.20 an hour is he gonna make you do that job alone or did he hire you a $4.00 an hour helper!!

Bob

[Edmund Forsthe]

show us the after pics not the equiptment but your biceps, you should look like connan the barbarian afterwards

[bennytec]

i think i have a helper for it. Boss was jokein and said the secrary is gonna help she needs to learn.

I drew up the rough plans for the duct work i still need to know the CFM and the btu's to run it through a Duct-u-lator.

boss will probable want a EAC and a april aire 600 and maybe even a UV light. He wants to make it look like a million bucks. I told him you give me the time, I will !!!!!

[pabull]

you may wanna add a charge for renting a plasma cutter to get that pig outta there. Have fun. :D

[beenthere]

Those monsters are never fun getting them out.

What size yoou replacing it with.

[bennytec]

not sure on size or brand

if it turns out to not have asbestos i'll try to get a plasma cutter. Don't start that project till next week i think

[sonc]

best part of taking out those *****es is running around the basement with a piece of gas pipe, swingin' like Babe Ruth, destroying all the old runs

BANZAI!!!!!!!!

[bennytec]

yeps it almost as fun as puttin the new in. LOL

[BaldLoonie]

I had a competitor that I knew needed some help, so I arranged for Ben to have an interview.

Long story short, he has a new job, with a great company, good bennies (no pun intended) and he will be trained how to do things the right way.

BBB

[bennytec]

Thanks to BBB i got a opportunity to go to a Bigger more respected Co that can afford to train me. Definitely a step up. I still have alot to learn. I'm sure i can learn and develop skills needed for this trade.

Did you ever see one that had an axial fan between the straight part going up and the tapered bonnet? With the motor hanging off the side and a long belt going into the bonnet.
