Do you ever re-read your bullshit?

"not much plastic in the plenum" ever looked at an ICP evaporator assembly?
"it would take an extended period of time" what's 18-20 years mean to you?
"but we do cover them for it not to be an issue" that means is *does* effect
them and that it *doesn't* extend the life.

Read the above till you can understand what it means...

I have, welcome, and continue to learn. I have an open mind to advances
with technology, as well as people, learn from things I don't know, and
even learn how people think about topics. That's how people grow. Not
have a mind that can't expand out of a plenum, that had been constructed
years ago.

Something just came to mind. I would be willing to bet that you had the
same narrow minded opinions when pc's were developed, but now you can't
keep your mouth shut on one. Please let me to be the first to know when
and where your first purchase of UV-C is.


Yeah! LOL

You don't know the difference. You don't like interruptions or
opposition.
Think trying to sell your gizmo's here was a smart idea? People can
look past your sales crap and find out they are an expensive toy that
doesn't do much for 99% of people's systems.

You can't make a residential home sterile. So your uv light is fighting
a losing battle from the start.
Your claims you can't put in writing. Because legally you can be sued
then. But you can say anything you want here, Can't you?

You idiot, the amount of plastic is covered so it does not effect them
and you obviously didn't read how it does extend the life. Please
enough, don't post anymore BS until you have read about the technology
and have supporting documentation to back you opinions.

People tell me I should close the doors of unused bedrooms in my house
(built 2006) and the air vents to save money on AC in the summer. I
thought I heard somewhere that this doesn't really do much, or maybe
that it's even bad to do so? Obviously wouldn't want to muck with any
vent sucking air out of the house, filtering particles along the way.

Spoke with an HVAC person recently and they said they thought closing
doors and the ceiling vents wouldn't do much; that air is still being
sent to the rooms (he called it dead air) even if the ceiling vents
were closed.

He said something that might be worth trying is going into the attic
and finding the air flow shutoff coming right out of the unit to a
particular room. Does this make sense and is it likely to save $$$, or
at least not do any harm?

I'd use another HVAC person if I were you. If you close off a vent,
MOST of the air that would normally go to that room will be blocked.
That will result in higher pressure in the ductwork which means more
air to the other rooms. This should result in the other rooms cooling
quicker and lower the amount of time the compressor has to run.
Result? Lower power bills.

most, maybe, but it does sound like the guy had the right idea - if
you're looking for efficiency, shut if off at the source. Do you shut
off the nozzle at the end of the hose, or the faucet at the wall, after
all?

And if you never plan on using the hose, why not shut it off where
that hose bib connects to the main water supply? If you decide to use
a shut off room some day, do you want to climb up to the attic or just
open the vent? We don't have an attic, and I'm not ready to tear out
the sheet rock in the ceiling to plug off a duct. The vent will do
nicely... and effectively. If you really want to shut it off, take the
vent off and plug up the vent with a piece of sheet metal.

Wrong. They cant strip search you for example.

Or punch your kid's lights out when they dont behave.

Or have enough of a clue to realise what the law allows and doesnt allow.
