    60 gallons a day water filtering??

    Quote: I would guess from the size of your brew pub, you would probably need to change out the carbon, ( around $80) every 7 or 8 years unfortunately carbon doesnt last indefinately even if you arent using it. it will need to be changed every 1-2 years even if you only use a few gallons of...

    60 gallons a day water filtering??

    Are there carbon blocks that big that would not have to be changed out daily? There are really two different ways to remove chlorine. One way would be to use a carbon filter tank. It would resemble a water softener tank, with carbon used internally instead of resin. Then, after the...

    60 gallons a day water filtering??

    I would like to post my .02 about some of the comments on water. RO water is simply reverse osmosis water. As with anything else, there are different qualities of RO water. The quality of RO water is measured by TDS ( total dissolved solids). The comment about RO water being the nearly the...

    For those with welders....

    You need the DC to be able to use the machine as a scratch start tig. If you were able to find a good deal on an AC/DC model, you would still have to buy a regulator/flow meter, and a tig torch with a gas valve on it. There is a pretty steep learning curve with Tig. I own a Tig, Mig...

    If it is an ac/dc stick welder, you can add a tig torch, and "scratch" start tig.

    Greenlee punch issue

    I have found that a good quality (lennox) hole saw works better than the greenlee punch, or a step bit. I recently cut 8 or so 1/2" holes with a lennox, and it looked like it was never used except for the missing paint. I also used a hole saw to cut the opening for my element. All of the holes...

    homemade chiller

    Stainless instrumentation is what i used. The tubing is pretty cheap, it is the compression fittings that are expensive. My friend at work, made one just like mine, and did a "test run" this past weekend, and brought the water from boil to 70 degrees in about 10 minutes. This was with...

    homemade chiller

    I used 1/2" stainless steel. I got it for free from work. We made a "drum" with a hole in it that could be attached to a threading machine. The threading machine would turn at a constant slow speed, and we we able to roll a 20' piece pretty easy. We made 2 coils, and then used 3/4" hose for our...

    Sabco Universal Siphon Issue. Won't fit, too long?

    Can you just bend the tube a little bit more, so it will hit the hole? can you put the tube through the hole first, and then thread it in the coupling?

    Good Online Store for Double Pole GFCI Breakers?

    Home Depot carries double pole GFCI breakers for the homeline/square D boxes. The spa panel that you are looking at, is actually a 100 or 125 amp( I don't recall which) subpanel. It comes with 1 50 amp gfci ( GE brand) breaker, and spaces to add up to 4 more circuits. You could always feed...

    Electric Question

    I did a quick search, and it appears as though it has a 120 volt coil. No problems if the contactor is not too big to fit in your box. You can just use two of the three legs.

    GFCI Score

    I believe the spa panel that he bought, is the same one that i bought. I had the same issue with not being able to find a GFCI breaker for my panel (pushmatic). You should be able to feed the panel with whatever breaker you want, ( make sure to use 4 wires). then, whatever you wire after the...
