a part of me feels missing now.
I ended up cracking the roof joist in the process but I have been reinforcing them anyway. So biggie.
I’m very happy for you
please continue
Is MTT the last remaining buffalo?
So 8 days of TGR thread reports and it is finally out. Now for the new one to be put into place and back connected and providing heat. Is that going to be the same thread or a new thread starting?
As of today my furnace is not running ]but I’m so close. Hooking up power and a new fancy thermostat that I might control with home automation
But my gas dryer is working using the new gas line I split off the original furnace line
Look I didn’t blow the place up. It was easy. YouTube

At this rate this furnace will be installed and working just in time for the 80 degree days of summer...
Did you check for gas leaks?

Found the pesky little leak no problem, and then went back and checked everything else and found a couple more that still did not show up with soapy water.
Anyways, moral of the story is spend the couple bucks on a detector.
Seriously?Quote:

In Asia, they use buffalo dung patties for cooking heating. Who needs a furnace when you’re riding a Buffalo?
If you want to put an addition on that double wide, you can also use buff patties for wall construction
GOAB, in another thread, wrote that he has disconnected his entire sewer drain plumbing to fix it. Perhaps he can route the drain into the furnace and heat the place with dung.Quote:

Probably if it is under the trailer and will have no heat, you will want to insulate that in some way and not just put a piece of metal to cover it. But the question really needs to be asked, where does that lead to just the area under the trailer or did it have a function with the old furnace.
You need a piece of sheet metal, some caulk and sheet metal screws. Cut and bend it to block off that area outside of the duct. Tape it up after it is sealed. If you just tape it the tape will fail and or rodents will chew through and live in your supply ductwork.
