I think I have isolated a "slight" error in this sentence---LOL!
comrade hillary
has probably never touched
a water heater.
I'm so proud of you. (as I wipe a small tear of joy from the corner of my eye)
Huge off road (petroleum based) tires I presume?
i gave up on huge tires and carburated engines when i got the whole family unit thing going on. its kinda hard to get the kids buckled into car seats when you’re running 35s.
so i’m driving a durango with little 31s. but at least i got the 5.9L engine.
In the new world order I’ll be considered a terrorist. I have a really bad back that acts up frequently, so I take long showers daily.
HOT LONG SHOWERS.
We could also save water by congregating at her house in DC so we can all pee in her back yard.
If we had a few Zed PMs we wouldn’t have this trouble..
Stargate SG-1 fans will know what I mean.
Going green is all about teaching leftists how to live as conservatives. You should have your own TV show!
The $19 ones are for small appliances and aren’t designed to carry the current a water heater needs.
The standard full size heater also runs on 230V and the timer needs to be wired in between the breaker and the heater.
She’ll have you eating your own body-fat in 2009...
We had one on our 80 gallon water heater and it cost $17 plus tax. Got it a a local hardware store in Texas. Of course, that was about 10 years ago and I am sure that a cheaper model (like ours) would be hard to find. My husband retired from an electric company and installed it himself. I am aware of where a timer is supposed to be installed. Couldn’t install it anywhere else. LOLL
I would beg to differ. By simple switching from black built up roofs or black epdm (rubber roofs) to white or reflective roofs, would go a long way to reducing cooling costs (and contribute to the reduction of the urban heat isaland) in all cities in DOE climate zones 1,2,3.
Also inexpensive measuures could be taken-such as conducting energy audits and retrofitting existing building envelopes to eliminate (or at least reduce) air infiltration, which is the greatest cause of high energy bills (and mold infestation by the way).
Existing government buildings, even old ones could be made to be much more energy efficient.
