Whatever flow rate & rise they will supply, they will supply indefinitely. So you never "run out" of hot water like with a tank. But I just did a little calculation for my house. To support 140F wat

True, but it accurately describes "worst case" in my own home. And it also describes a situation that my current hot water system can handle reasonably well, as long as the showers and faucet usage

The tanks are available, but why ? You'd have to add a pump to circulate the water through the tank back into the heater, since otherwise it will get cold in the tank. And since you're still keeping

Easiest I would think is to install the equivalent of an Amprobe on each leg outside of the gen set (or at least outside of where it would void your warranty). Basically stick a toroid core around e

That web page mentions a "call tone" you can send. My thought would be a modification inside the box, to detect the call tone and trigger your choice of displays when it happens. Much easier, IMO, t

Tough question, but I have a 6.5 hp 3300 psi model and I wish it had more pressure. Note that flow is important too. BTW, a "rotating" nozzle will help simulate a larger unit. It moves the needle sp

AFAIK, no. It's normal to have the branch circuits add up to more than the capacity of the main circuit. Of course the actual load has to remain below the main circuit capacity. If your kiln takes 6

Nope, no breaker for the entire subpanel, in either the subpanel or the main box. Agreed. But since the subpanel is only a couple of inches away from the main panel, using "main line" gauge wire to

No, but I have spot-heated parts with a propane torch to drive off any oil in pores and whatnot. Seems to help paint adhesion a good deal. Keep in mind that the self-cleaning cycle hits roughly 900F

As far as mineral content, yes. But I wouldn't call it "clean" since it will also have condensed anything else that happened to be in the air (smoke, dust, pollen, etc.) One way is to put it in a pa
