They're literally world leaders in how much renewable energy they're installing...

This is incredible! And it sounds like they only have to receive the stimulation once a month? I figured it was continuous! That’s amazing.

Did you forget to take your meds? No one here has a clue what you're talking about!

Is this just me or is this super racist?

India doing it for so long ! One state started it way back in 1995

That picture looks dreadful and depressing.

>Wrap-around porches shaded the ground floor.

I can't believe that never occurred to me. I moved into a new house last year that has a wraparound porch for half the house (right next to the living room) and I was struck by how comfortable it was in there during the summer. I was used to sweltering any time the temp hit 80F.

The math is different for people who have solar panels or those who have much higher gas prices

For some reason people tend to just get stuck on the "space heaters are expensive" thing even though most of us use them to temporarily supplement the heat and not use them to heat the whole house. I've never seen any significant increase in electric bill from occasionally using a space heater.

So happy that the house we bought last year has a pellet stove. When it's been at its coldest here in NY, we've been able to run that thing all day without stressing much.

Always good to have tested crew for every complex job done :)

My uncle has a roofing company, they did the install. They do good work.

Just one thing to keep in mind regarding standing seam systems - do not go for cheapest ones. Actually look for company that will come over and pick the mounting to fit the seam properly. 'Universal' clamps, especially cheap ones, can move under high wind load. Seen installations that needed to be removed completely since they slide down the roof plane...

There are 100000 btus in a therm of natural gas and 3142 btus in a kwh of electric so using $1.316 of gas for heating is equivalent to $5.506 in electricity for a space heater at the current rates I am paying for ng and electric. Heat pumps probably won't catch on as much in the north for heating we mostly use them for cooling in the summer. Even with a crank case heater and an auxiliary heat grid inside the head getting below 5 they really struggle.

I'll stick with my 96.3% furnace for now. The premature push to have everything all electric is just a good way to sell more natural gas to electric power companies for generation. Just costs the end user more money.

On demand works, but daily is better for people who want the most protection. I wouldn’t buy pills from India unless out of other options (many local groups will fund these medications without having to resort to black market pills). India doesn’t have the same regulatory standards we do and it can have deadly consequences.

Edit: I’d also note that on demand isn’t the best option for people who use injection drugs because we don’t have enough data to show it can be effective.

Hahaha I’m going to try the same…

“That’s rich coming from you guys lol but I’m sure you’ll get it eventually lol I’m not a big deal at the end but I’m sure it’ll work well for you too.”

I think this sentence makes more sense than his comment.

My landlord had a heat pump installed in my rental just recently and I asked him about it. For context: It’s a student rental in an area that gets cold winters and hot summers. Because he takes the electric cost from vacationers in the summer it’s more efficient to have a heat pump that can do both AC for them and heat for me in the winter. It simplified the things he has to worry about/repair, plus saves me money on the electric bill (which he then up charges the rent of course).

[obligatory fuck landlords, we’re better off without them]

I think he just typed “That’s rich coming from” and let his phone decide the rest.

What did he even tried to say?

Start with the battery and inverter first. If there is a power outages, you will have power for the fridge and TV. I am fond of Nissan Leaf modules.

Then, plan out the purchase of a dual-fuel generator as a back up.

The last phase is adding the solar panels and charge controller...if you wait on the panels, you can get the newest type, with the best cloudy-day performance.

You can get a sunburn on a cloudy day, so some frequencies of energy are making it through...

Just a few thoughts and suggestions. Best of luck.

Cant say fat, thats racist now....

If I eaten an entire house with a space heater in each room, I would agree with you.

This past winer we had a month that was colder than normal, and that month we paid $300 to heat. The following month we turned the central heat way down, dressed warmer, and used a space-heater in the small den where we ate and watched TV

Cuckservative word salad. Just block and move on.
