Looks like what we have in 75% of the hospital. Nice look and very durable

 

Stained our bannisters.

What product did you use to stain over stain? How much prep work is needed?

 

100x better than before.

 

Used the entire tax return for new AC. 23 year old unit died last July. Now we're rolling with a Trane. So long, $3,142.00, it was nice never seeing ya'.

 

Not bad. Here you're looking at closer to $10k to replace a unit

 

We used 800 grit and 0000 to lightly sand the original clear. Then used general finishes gel stain to stain right over the original stuff. Then did 3 coats of a water based clear.

 

Was that just the Condenser unit or both airhandler and condensing unit?

So Obviously you upgraded from R22 to R410A correct?

 

Not much of a upgrade but my wife hated our bar height table so I cut the legs down and reassembled it. Four new chairs and a new setup is born.

 

Great way to use what you have instead of buying new!!

 

Yup, and I've got two of them! Will have to refi the house if they ever go down.

 

I luckily only have one and it's about 6yrs old... should be good for another 6-9 yrs

 

Deck permit applied for.

 

Oops! I knew I forgot something when I did mine last year...or maybe not needed if I was just replacing? Went from 12 x 16 to 60 x 16. Just a little bigger.

 

Exterior Condenser and coil under house. Blower/furnace is a 5 year old Rherm unit. Yes, swapped from R22 to R410. Trane model is XR-16, iirc.

 

Good deal!!

Im getting ready to go duel fuel....

 

I thought my deck was going to big.

Proof there is always someone with a bigger deck.

 

Pics or it...well, I gues pics of plans?

Don't worry. A smaller deck just means less inevitable rot to worry about.

 

Don't worry boys, size of your deck doesn't matter.
