OK, I understand they aren't as efficient as freon/chompressor type (yet?) But I saw a small 1.7 CF fridge at Walmart for $60 designed for hom use. Haier 75...
Could someone in the know explain the process for converting gas powered automobiles, furnaces, stoves, refrigerators and air conditioners over to alcohol...
A couple of years ago, I talked with someone who had plans for building a cold box using evaporative cooling. I have been trying to find a copy of these plans...
Hi, Kristen, In what region of the planet are you located? How dry is the air in your area? How reliable the breezes? How cool are you wanting to maintain...
"Chuck" <sky_owl@...> ... Hi Chuck; Those conversions are usually pretty complicated. Alcohol eats up a lot of the gaskets used in a lot of systems....
So, Laren, (or others), can someone tell me what would need to be done to a small gas-powered electicity-generator, to convert it to run on E85, in order to...
Don, It might be easier (and ultimately cheaper and with less maintenence requirements) to trade it in for a diesel Gen-set and run it on biodiesel or convert...
That's also an option, but I'm not sure about the cold-weather operation issues of a bio-diesel generator...it get down to 30 below here on occasion and, in...
Hmmm! A Refrigerator Group. Who Knew! Well, I wanted to stop by to ask if any of you can please help me. I am plagued with a noisy refrigerator. It is...
Sasha, I'd recommend AGAINST the ones from Whirlpool/Maytag/Amana! We went through all kinds of misery and lack of service when we bought ours a while...
Thank you for the Warning Don. That doesn't leave much in the marketplace to
select from. But I'll give it a good go. Wish me luck. SMax ... From: Don Stephens...
"Sasha" <sms@...> ... It seemed to be something that the world needed ;O) ... The way hotels and motels have quiet refrigerators in their rooms is to...
How about an efficient chest-style fridge? I have no idea, if they're quiet, but I'm sure there are folks on this list who do know. We have a Frigidaire....
... (...Snipped...: ) ... Our new one(with freezer on bottom) is not "efficient" enough but what, in just one hot July day, our old blind dog discovered that...
Maybe this will narrow it further. We have gotten fairly good service, but one problem is that we have needed it - a lot! Our fridge is a GE. Our Amana lasted...
I had a Vestfrost for ten years -- worked fine for a normal, on-the-grid house. When I moved off the grid last year, it was too much of a "normal" level energy...
The processing of converting vegetable oil to biodiesel scares me because it uses chemicals that are hazardous and toxic and I worry about the safety of the...
All compressor refrigerators make some noise. The noise can be normal, which would be low humming and gurgling sounds. Some fridges have fans which make some...
Gotta be all relative, Don. What your old friend discovered was, the most comfortable place in his home to rest, but that really doesn't say anything of the...
I'd tend to disagree. All too often, companies take minimum standards to mean "nothing better is expected" of them. If the outside of the fridge is cool/cold...
Uhmm! I'm confused. I replied to Don's question which asked about running a genset with alcohol. However... Making alcohol is also a dangerous process as is...
"Don Stephens" <dsteph@...> ... Hi Don; We (the human race) continually strive to get it right, with everything we design, make, and sell, but there are...
I'll I take an semi-educated guess as the legality of converting a "regular" car to run on E85, Don. In general it's illegal to futz with emmision controls on...
Hi Don, I live in Humboldt County in Northern California. I live on the coast and we have pretty moderate temps (mid-60's today) and fairly high humidity with...
