re: Any Louisianians (?) Store Their Bicycles Outside?

Posted by gorillacoco on 2/10/24 at 10:36 pm

Storing under a roof of any kind is a huge difference from keeping them in the rain and direct sun. We have had bikes under a porch roof for several years (at least since 2020) and I’ve literally done no maintenance on those bikes besides topping off the tires and tightening loose bolts for the whee...

Is now a time to put down sod?

Posted by gorillacoco on 9/16/23 at 8:24 am

I have a dead spot about 300ft2 I want to sod over, as well as some very shaded areas in the backyard that haven’t had any St Aug since I moved in. I know there’s a chance it won’t take in the shade but I’m going to give it a shot. Is now an okay time of year for this?...

Is there any reason I shouldn’t double up MSM turf and Atrazine cocktail in the same spray

I want to kill buttonweed and also do a general application of atrazine cocktail (cleggs) now that it’s cooled off a little. Is there any reason I can’t mix all in the same sprayer?...

re: Replacing HVAC Furnace?

Posted by gorillacoco on 12/15/22 at 1:44 pm

Tech should be able to troubleshoot the issue by testing the control ckt point to point until he finds the device stopping the gas valve from actuating and lighting the furnace. I don’t think he should be just replacing a bunch of stuff all at once without a good reason. On some furnaces there is a ...

Found out this wk that my furnace has a major problem (started tripping the flame rollout switch) and according to the ac repairman needs to be replaced due to a crack in the heat exchanger. He said he could not see a crack but determined there was one by process of elimination (checked the gas pres...

Anyone else having this problem? Thought it was a wifi problem, moved the tv to where it’s about 6’ from the wifi. The video feed freezes about 5-6s after I select the game. Reset and it does the same thing. Checked some other apps and reset the roku. Everything else seems to work fine....
