    Thermal Expansion

    I had the size correct Jadnashua, I totally agree with you. I used the link in my post above, for sizing the Watts PL Tanks. I played with the automated calculator, that takes into account for range of temp, and number of gallons of the tank. I used 125 psi for my calculations in the macro...

    Thermal Expansion

    Here is a bit of background of my Thermal expansion problems. Here in Scottsdale, my water pressure was hitting about 100 during a 24 hour period. I have been seeing a bit of water on my garage floor from the over pressure relief on a daily basis. ( I think since they changed out my meter to a...

    I am in the middle of demo and rebuild of 40 feet of softit removal and raising all of my ceiling up to 8ft. The house was built in 79. I have been re working the existing wiring so I can reinstall all the dry wall. I found two strange usages of 14/3. The home builder ran 14/3 for two...

    Feed from Breaker Panel

    Cacher_Chick clued me into my wrong judgment. I mispoke about my current 30 year set up. In another post I put the text printed on my old wire. It has 3 insulated conductors and no bare wire equipment ground. I wrongly assumed it was a 6/2. I just pulled the 6/3 copper wire today. Thanks...

    Feed from Breaker Panel

    Thanks for the reply. I assumed it was 2 hots and a ground on my old wiring.. I pulled the plug of my old stove apart and all 3 AL conductors are the same size. You helped clarify my confusion. So I will be getting the 6/3 to run my Oven. My new double oven will be next to my Induction...

    Feed from Breaker Panel

    Okay, by code if my stove/cooker dies can I replace it and use the existing 6/2 wire? I would assume the answer is yes? Just curious as I have not considered pulling out my existing 6/2 Now when I add the double oven, I need another feed so code says I need to use a 6/3 as your not allowed to...

    Feed from Breaker Panel

    Thanks for the feed back. After looking at it deeper, I have decided to give it a go to try and route the new wires the same way as all the Original wires. To make this possible I am going to roto zip one of blocks a foot above my panel as I plan on a stucco job over the slump block in the...

    Feed from Breaker Panel

    I am in the middle of a major Kitchen/lighting remodel. I tore out some sofits and AC ducting and ran new ducting over the joist. During this job, I of course found many of my Romex wirings not over the joist and in my sofits. So, I am almost completed rerouting all of these wires so I can move...
