(Mis)Adventures in DIY'ing: Whole House Humidifier. Part Two.
In continuing with the way super fabulous fun yay happy time adventure of installing a whole house humidifier by myself:
Last we left off, I was seconds away from beginning the install of this Honeywell Whole House Humidifier* I purchased over 'dere at Menards.
Ok, so it's all-in-let's-go time. I shut the furnace off at the switch, I grab a drill bit, choke, then drill a hole in the supply duct. I don't have the uber fancy 3/4" bit* they used in the video, nor was I going to purchase it for a one time use.
Grab the tin snips* and ooohmg, this is ridiculous. That guy in the video must be like the Six Million Dollar Man or something, able to nimbly snip a duct like it's paper, jeez louise. I'll be here for weeks! Yeah that was sucking majorly so I grabbed my spiffy grinder.*
Now. Ahem.
Do not do as I do (again), ok" Please.
When I started snipping away at the supply duct there appeared to be a bunch of alien shaped mechanical looking objects right behind where I was struggling. I could have easily destroyed our a/c stuff which is what all that gack was, turns out.
Aaaaannnd, we're off to the races. Yeah, not unsettling at all, nope.VERY carefully I zipped out the square with the grinder. Very carefully. Like super very. Like super very very ridiculously carefully. And thankfully I did not damage a single thing. Nor burn my hair off. Nor the house down. &...
