  • Re: DC pumps and blower

    Kenny: I remain a novice in all aspects of this job - but I think your idea of an inverter is an excellent idea! Again - I am only concerned about the blower since I have not purchased any pumps yet. Your advice about GPM and head ratings is well noted. I have the gas generator but am not keen...

    Hi Jim, I promise I had a great, witty and informative response to your reply(it even had calculations in it). when I clicked "post" I was informed that I would have to log in. fine. but the post was gone. I'll try to replicate. the shorter version is that in heating applications, we can...
