RI is in it's second heat wave of the summer. So here's what my summer project was to keep me, my family, and my comics cool. I installed ductless central air conditioning. I did get a little help from a few friends.     |

A friend of mine mailed me a package. She is a big fan of Godzilla and loves to say that he could defeat the Punisher. Obviously I've tried on several occasions to explain to her why she's wrong but I haven't been able to convince her. Well today I received the package and it was "decorated"  *Edit* make sure you zoom in on Frank.  |

Quote:Originally Posted by HeinzDad Each bedroom on the second floor has a small unit. There is one large unit in the living room on the first floor. There is only a small hole to the outside through which refrigerant flows to and from the unit, along with the electrical and a small hose for condensation. It was 96 degrees outside today and the inside of the house was dry and cool. My wife works from home and wore a sweater today at her desk. |

Quote:Originally Posted by esaravo Those are great units, I have one in my house but my place is a single level floorplan. My comics are stored in my basement which is around 65 degrees Fahrenheit and 55% humidity, just about perfect. Does yours double as a heating unit as well? |

| @Maritimer - It can also be used for heating. I will have to investigate if No. 2 fuel oil or electricity would be the cheaper option come winter. | ||

| Supposedly, they are very efficient at a ratio of 3 : 1 versus electric baseboard heaters. As for oil, yeah you'll have to research that. If it helps, my energy bills in the dead of winter average less than $400 per month. I know for sure oil is more expensive to heat with up here. Far more people use wood stoves versus oil heat in eastern Canada. | ||

| Not sure if heating is more expensive than cooling but I live in Florida and even with AC on pretty much every day of the year I've yet to hit 400$ a billing cycle. I prolly couldn't afford to run it if it was that high..... | ||

 If the viagra is working you should be well over a 9.8.

 To answer your question, no, this is not where the comics go to die.

| @CatCovers - Greg, I had him sign my copy of that book a few years ago. He was happy and surprised to see it and said he hadn't seen a copy in quite a while. | ||

 I had no way of knowing that 9.8 graded copies signed by Adam Hughes weren't what you were looking for.

 my nephew bought a wood working business, he made this for his kid. I thought it was pretty awesome. I told him I would post it here to see if anyone would be interested,he can customize anything. Told him to come up with a price, if anyone is interested let me know. He can make it appropriately 11"x19"x1/8" thick. It's all done with a laser. |
