    No idea what these metal strips do, but I pulled probably a dozen of them out of the heat exchanger...

    Not really HVAC professional shit but I put a new heater in my shop today. Had to run a 240v circuit for it.

    Nah, sold my gas reznor since it was gonna cost too much to pipe gas out to the shop from the house. Opted for this little 7500w (25,500 BTU) unit instead. It's a Comfort Zone, was at my local farm supply place

    You finally own a house now, right? I'm guessing you have natural gas heat?

    Yessir, natural gas, had a brand new Trane 96% efficient unit installed when I moved in. It works well, house is 112yrs old so the ducting could be better, but I'm not complaining.

    No, almost was going to when I had the new heater put in, for another 5k I could have. But the ducting to upstairs is shitty and wouldn't have let it cool well enough. Opted to just use window units until I have some downtime and extra cash to do mini splits
