Integrity Curb Appeal

Its been a good year for me. I've had a blast. "No pun intended".

Amen! So you are from Frankfort, I'm just down the road in Lexington. How's business this year?

I have a Wayne oil burner on my hot water machine. I have electric going to the igniter, and the oil pump is working. I am pumping oil into the valve, but none is coming out of the valve. Would it be: 1. The valve, or power going to the valve? How can I test this? 2. The igniter. Does it have some kind of feature that will tell the valve not to release oil if there is some kind of issue? Any help will be appreciated. I have 3 hot water jobs ready to go. Scott

I have tried several times to register. I have used you and Ant both as a referrer and it reads "Invalid Referrer Specified". Is in working properly? Scott

It seems as though people have downloaded the diagrams and saved them to their own folders for reference. Thanks for all the work you have put in on these diagrams. It is a wealth of knowledge. Scott

You are the man. I did just get it going, but it so happens that I did walk the curcuit the way it is listed here. I hope this page helps someone else that may have the same issue. Thanks for you time, effort and help. Scott J

Thanks everyone. It is fixed. I followed the steps Russ gave me early on and it led me to a pressure issue that was not enguaging the pressure switch. Thanks again. Scott

Based on if I have done everything correctly, when I removed the coil, I stuck in a brill bit, and it did not hold it. I used the bit because it was the same size as the valve cylinder. Does this sound as if I have done things correctly?

I can short this (temerature control/thermostat) out for a test?

Sorry, it did not upload the photo.

First off. thanks for all of your help. I appreciate it very much. In the photo, is it the top nut and cylinder I should remove? I did this and my burner fired as long as it remained wired this way. I immedietly wired it back to the original configuration at the conclusion. Can I use alligator clips on all connectors without disconnecting them?

Rod is the house chemist. Im sure he will have an answer and include reactivity data.

Do you have a true Brown Sugar sample photo you could post?

I received my brown sugar yesterday. I seems a little darker than I expected, but it is likely my expectations are off. I tested a couple of spots on an old piece of pt and on a new piece of pt. It was dry in like 15 minutes. Not tacky this morning at all. I may have tested too thin though. This is my first time with WTW.

No kidding, You reading an Edgar Cayce book?

I hope it is corrected. I have been waiting for its arrival, and now I have to test it? I agree with Ken, it should be ready from the can. I'll let you know if I have any issues when I receive it.

I ordered straight from ESIs website. St Louis isnt far from here so shipping was reasonable.

You guys are freakin me out! I ordered my first 5er of WTW Brown Sugar a week ago. I have not received it yet, but how will I tell if it is a spring batch or not? I am still a novice at wood and have no interest in playing chemist. Luckily it is in the high 80s low 90s here.

Chris, If you find a link that comprimises your business, perhaps you could just open the link and edit the post. This should help, but you will never find all the links that come up in a search. It would be much easier to manage the exception than to change all the rules.

Sounds like you are close to me. In your way of figuring I am more like 1.25 & 2.25.

Man Jeff, you're one popular dude. I'll be there in late July.

I haven't tried x-jetting it. I would just call or email Bob at PressureTek. I am sure he would be glad to advise.

Sure. I mix up the ingredients above, leave it on the trailer, and plug in my downstreamer This latest addition to GP's chemical injector line is a new "Hi-Draw" model, capable of a 20%* draw rate. These injectors feature an operating pressure of 4,500 PSI and a temperature rating of 1900. Sized at 3/8 inch M X M, NPT, stainless steel orif put my hose in the bucket, and sray the gutters using a 0030 tip. I typically rinse with a 0010 tip. Higher volume machines will allow for rinsing with larger orfice tips. My 0020 draws chem, or I would use it. I typically let the mix dwell for 5 -7 minutes. Do not let the chems dry. Simple Cherry from pressuretek is the soap that I normally use in my housewash as well. It is good stuff. The SGEC just seems to really help with the gutters. Anyone tried this out yet?

Sams Club. Keep in mind that in your area, you may need something stronger. If you do purchase a chem for gutters then Bob sales F13 which works well, and if mymemory serves me right, you can put it in your housewash as well. The black streaks in gutters are in the oxidation layer of the paint. F-13 removes the oxidation and in turn removing the streaks. - CHEMICALS HOUSE WASH / GUTTER / WOOD CARE / MULTI-PURPOSE

Ive never used a brush on gutters. I downsteam and rinse.
