all of the plastic pipes options seem to top out at 200°F

which leaves copper. Home depot has 10' 3/4" copper at $34.50 per length or for higher pressures,,, $46.67
Oh **** me!!! but if I buy 100 feet it's gets cheaper. grrrr.
Gas is pretty much always run in black iron pipe, I've never seen it otherwise,Jerry, although I can see wherea guy from your area would not know that. A lot of you Northeasterners use or used that Holy Shit THAT'S Expensive fuel oil. You converted to electric from oil, didn't you? Where did you get gas??? Do you mean propane? It is also typically run in black pipe But not always. I think it is always the best and safest choice once inside a structure. $28 per10 foot section. Likely cheaper elsewhere..

mea culpa, It's a hydonic system so I'm running a hot water line and return from the boiler not a gas line.

I'm waiting for the water to air exchanger to show up from amazon.
Amazon Amazon

I had an older one I was thinking about using but it's an odd size and mating to the fan I have will just be a PITA to create a plenum.
If my hunch it right my garage will be at 70° in about 15 minutes.

People are complaining that the roads aren’t being properly plowed they are complaining that the roads weren’t clear during the snowstorm. So think about that,I’m posting because sometimes I wonder if it’s just me but isn’t that kind of

Most snow plowing occurs after the snow stops falling (cessation of snow accumulation), most people don't understand that concept. They may start plowing if there is no break in the snow falling after a certain number of hours, it is a tricky thing to control.

We have slowly been remodeling our guest bedroom, and one of the changes was to remove the cabinets that the TV was sitting on. Today I installed a wall mount for the TV, which was a %$#@&^ kind of deal, but got it done and it's even plumb and level. The issue I am now facing is to reattach the Roku adapter, but somehow, my feeble mind has forgotten where I put it. I have run out of logical places to look, and just gave up and poured myself a glass of wine, therefore the second ^%$#%^& moment of the day. Oh, well, I'm sure it will turn up in a most inappropriate place.

Here they go non-stop during a storm I think the highway guys and gals do a fantastic job. I traveled over 100 miles between today and tonight and every road I was on was down to pavement. I just don’t understand why people would expect a road to be clear during a snowstorm lol.

How can you practice snow rally on clear roads?

Gene, Is the roku hanging from the back of the TV?
