so having measured air quality in my whole house moving between 2 amazon sensors, the biggest offender is cooking, without ventilation air quality in other rooms get massively affected from 95 to 0 (b/c of having 147voc and 1400particulate)
and this w/ my other bedrooms on the second floor, bad air really travels far.
to counter this, i've put a winix 5500-2 but it does not "turbo" when i start cooking, so it's not sensitive enough, so for my next experiment i'm getting the wifi winix's that will kick on turbo until air quality goes back to 95 after/during cooking.
i didn't think i'd be doing so much, but one thing just leads to another i guess

Do you run your range hood fan when you cook and does it exhaust outdoors? Sort of curious since that's a project I want to work on for this reason. I don't feel like running through that half assed carbon filter is doing anything.

Serious question: What is going on with these brand names? Do these companies just slam their head on the keyboard when it comes time to figure out a name? Is there some strategy I'm unaware of that benefits your product being some random collection of letters?

yes, you do not have to search the database and make sure youre not infringing on copyright if your product is named "Tkfdsufudkfdly", maybe of these items are just 3rd party amazon drop ship, you just silkscreen some name and profit
They're pop-up chinese companies that just fold and rebrand if anyone complains about anything.

lulz, thats a gas mower, i see the carb and the pull handleI always like how those brands have some generic looking nice house with a white dude that looks like he's off property brothers. "You're the do it yourself type! Buy this shit and be whiter!"

I'd like to purchase that hovercord that is magically levitating off the ground all the way to the mower.

this works well, everytime i kick on the stove, the winix kitchen turbos up, app is horrible it won't recognize my second winix, but whatever i guess, the upstairs is only degraded to 80 when cooking

The main panel on the outside of my house is running out of 2” knockouts.. I need two more but this panel only has one left on it. I’d like to pass inspection but also don’t want this to look like a dude off Craigslist did the job. Even if creating a new 2” knockout (not sure that’s allowed?), piping the 2” up from the ground would go over a window.
Im wondering if maybe installing a subpanel on the same wall some 6 ft away with plenty of 2” knockouts would be a better idea and also pass inspection. I’d run 240v to it from the main of course.
Thoughts?

Was catching up with my Dad yesterday and he is wanting to replace his 360 sq ft deck so was getting quotes. Synthetic, not wood, but not Trex I guess. Anyways, one quote he got back was for $43,000. I mean... I've seen his deck, it is just a normal deck, nothing crazy multilevel 70' off the ground suspended anything. $43,000 is insane. His house is probably in the $750k range based on a quick Zillow look up. Interested to see what his other quotes come back and almost want to try and get a quote for our deck just to laugh.

Any kind of work is fucking bonkers expensive. I had people wanting $12k for a plumbing rough-in on a bathroom and $150k for a 50x5 retaining wall.
