The project consisted of building a Solar Box/Oven for 300' of 3/4" Pex-B Tubing to sit inside of and was built using 2x12's with a finished size of 36"x36" . 1/2" plywood was used for the backing with 1" Polyiso Board sitting on top of that with a thick piece of sheetmetal plate on top of that...

The a/c system is likely low on freon which causes the evaporator above the furnace to freeze the condensate on it until it overflows the evaporator condensate pan and starts to drip down the center of the furnace winding up on the floor underneath the blower. Have the a/c system serviced and...

Im having trouble finding suitable info online regarding this , so, let me know if you happen to find something. Thanks. Or...ill just to have install it and find out by trial and error.

If a solar collector is mounted on the ground and there is a horizontal (inclinded) piping run of 25' (each for supply and return) then a vertical run of 10' to the water heater tank....will the water still move adequately ? Are there limits ?? Thanks.

Thanks for the tips on the styrofoam. I just might change the project to your idea. Thanks alot.

First, id make sure that tiny diameter duct isnt partially restricted with debris inside it (or partially crushed) ... then id run a larger diameter duct providing you have access to the main trunk duct where the branch duct is attached. You may want to run something fairly flexible thru the...

If i were doing it, Id run an insulated supply plenum length of at least 24" and have all the duct takeoffs as far away from the Cooling Coil as possible so the air comes out of the Cooling Coil and mixes well before it gets diverted down each branch takeoff. And id install an adjustable...

If you have an electric furnace or an 80% efficient gas furnace, I would install it in the attic and run flexible insulated round ducts from an insulated supply plenum mounted to the furnace ... to each room , with a central return in the hallway providing your doors are either undercut or you...

I also live in a double wide . If it were me doing it, id scrap both main ducts and crossover duct and put in an insulated supply plenum box attached to the airhandler/ffurnace and run 6" round insulated flexible ducts in the crawlspace to each present outlet locations and any new supply...
