    Just got my Draftrite

    Ordered it online and it came today. I cant wait to use it. Watched some Youtubes of it and I think its going to be a time saver.

    Draftrite:

    I've had a Draftrite for years, I haven't used it in years. I only use my Bachrach MZF. I can see it from long distances. My old eyes like that.

    I always found it difficuly to hold the Draftrite on one hand while keeping it level, and making air adjustments. The MZF leaves me with both hands free.

    Cool Two 'Draftrites'

    There is the old pocket draft gauge 'Draftrite' from Bacharach then there is the draft simulator 'Draftrite' gizmo for testing pressure switches.

    If you want to test drat, get a Dwyer 460

    Draftrite:

    Many years ago, I had a Dwyer 460. Before I bought my pocket Bachrach Draftrite. Then I bought an Bachrach oil wet kit. It came with a MZF. That was the last time I ever used the Draftrite.

    Yeah, tried that but the message below pops up. I guess I'm not supposed to be on here since I distribute tools and test equipment. I didn't post any "links"; my business name is a dot com and I used it beneath my name.

    If either of you do not have "Professional Member" below your user name, you need to do that, first.

    No, I can access that page. I was clicking on the link on your sign off that said "click here for your *".

    Either way, as I mentioned, I'm a tool and test instrument distributor not a technician. I read through the tools & test instruments section and only post where I can be of some help accessing information on a given item.

    Am I permitted to do this without being a professional technician?

    The "*" is for the AOP section of the site.

    You are not allowed to advertise on HTalk without being a site sponsor.

    You advertise when you post the link to your website.

    You may qualify for Pro Membership but the Membership Committee must decide that thus the application

    I have advertised multiple times on both Contracting Business and HVAC-Talk.com but don't have an ad currently.

    Very sorry, won't happen again.

    Tony... send an email to Mike Weil. Have him send me an OK and I'll change your user group to Sponsor. Then you can advertise here.

    You can find this info in the link at the top of each page called Advertise.

    thx
