Since it's disney, now, the good guys won't need light sabres or guns, any more.
They can just chase heavily armed soldiers around brandishing towels.
Looking forward to it not, I am.

My heater broke the other day. Of course. Winter coming. Heaters don't break in the Summer.
Anyway, the guy came and fixed it.
Anyone know anything about heat pumps? That's what I have here.
Used to be, it would kick on all at once - fan, indoor unit, outdoor unit - and run until the house met the magic temperature.
Now, however, when the kicking-on point is reached, the outside unit starts up, then the inside unit and they both run for at least 5 minutes until the fan kicks on and starts blowing the warmed air through the ductwork.
Which is "normal"? The used-to-be way of it working, or the current way?
The current way actually makes more sense...don't start blowing until it can blow warm air...but it never ever worked that way before (7 years worth of never ever, anyway, since that's when we moved in).

The way it used to be matches how mine operate (Nordic Inverter) but in extreme cold weather the outdoor unit is supposed to pre-start...I have never experienced this because we do not have what the Nordic countries would call extreme weather.

Extreme cold weather... Here, that means in the 30's F LOL

Last winter we had 2 full weeks around -20 F, that is not so fun, I tell you. I had to load my car battery 2 times.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

The current way makes sense, and is far more efficient. The old way was starting all subsystems at once, and that tends to create electrical problems related to switching transients - that leads to equipment failures. I don't know the details of how a heat pump works, but it definitely makes no sense to blow air into the heated space until the bits meant to heat the air get warm. That's just silly.
I haven't yet lit my forced air furnace (though I should - it's rather chilly inside tonight, at 61 F), but its normal sequence is to light the burner, wait until some bi-metal sensor gets hot enough to switch when the firebox is toasty, then turn on the air circulating fan. It runs until the sensed temperature is a couple of degrees above the set-point, then turns off the burner. The fan continues to run until the firebox cools down to a safe temperature. On occasion, the pilot flame will heat the firebox to unsafe levels. When that happens, the control turns on the air circulating fan to cool the assembly. It's actually rather clever, considering that it has no electronic parts, just a couple of relays, and a few resistors in the control loop.

Yeah, that makes sense to me, too. Weird how every repairman for the last 7 years didn't notice... (Yeah, I call them out at least once a year)

Thanks. Must have just died. It was fine yesterday. Sigh.

And...fixed. No idea what they did to fix it, of course. They never say; just "Try it now."

A day late, but I wasn't internet enabled yesterday.
First, I am thankful for my family, my job, and the opportunities that affords.
Wednesday night, my family joined a group of about 15 other people to travel 5 hours away with the express purpose of bringing a full Thanksgiving dinner to people who have been hard fit economically.
At the end of the day, 610 meals had been provided, leftovers sent to the homeless shelter and many bags of clothes donated to whomever could use them.
What made the day special for my family is this: 11 years ago, my first date with my to-be wife was doing the same thing in Harlem.
Do something for someone today expecting nothing in return. It can make you grateful for what you have.

Thank you, Tim, and your entire group for your efforts on behalf of those families less fortunate. Good job!

You, sir, have what is called a conscience.
Meanwhile, so far 21 cities in the US have made it illegal to feed the homeless. You are required to have a restaurant license, and bathroom facilities for customers, in order to provide wrapped turkey sandwiches to those who are sleeping on heater grates, park benches, under the bridges, etc.
God bless you!

I'm guessing the States without watching. Though if it's Top Gear where the original came from then it's obviously Argentina.
