The vent under your sink is most likely a Oatey Sure Vent. When they go bad the allow the water to drain with no problem but also allow the sewer gases/odor to escape. You should be able to find replacements at a local plubing supply house or a good hardware store. These are cheap and if this is you...

Re: Problem #1 First thing I would do is check underneath the home. Being you have a doublewide there will be a crossover duct connecting the 2 halfs together. You need to make sure this is in good repair, connected properly etc. If you find it needs to be replaced do a search on Roberts posts as he...

More Pics Moisture reading on Std OSB img_0210.jpg Moisture reading Top side Ply-Tanium img_0212.jpg Moisture reading top side Advantech img_0211.jpg So tomorrow we will pull the wood out of the water. Take some more quick readings if there are no significant changes I will not post. We will watch t...

Ok we have done some experiments. First the Disclaimer...The tests are far from scientific! Here is what we did. We cut 4 pieces of different types of flooring. All were cut to 12"x12". We weighed them. Took moisture content readings before hand, although none of them registered on the met...

The Experiment has begun. I will post some info and pictures in the next day or so.

Brenda, Yes it will hold together better after being wet. It has a much better resistance to water. If you do some searches Advantech vs Plywood etc I'm sure you will find many articles on the topic. I believe it comes with a 50 yr warranty and a 300 day exposure warranty for new construction. As fo...

Happy New Year!

Advantech will probably cost you a little more but will out perform traditional Ply. It has a lower absortion rate and less deflection. Most of the higher end home builders use it today. Dont confuse it with standard OSB.

For the storm door if you need to cut it down to size you can get a universal door seal for the bottom. There is a difference between a typical mobile home storm and a residential. The majority of MH storm doors (Philips, Elixir etc) will have a receiving channel in the framing that slides over the ...

I would get a hygrometer so you know what the humidity level in the house is. Take a reading in the room where the leak is. Anything above 40% and I would be suspect of condensation. Under 40% and I would say you need to look at the roof again. Hygrometers can be purchased at most hardware stores, W...

Here is how Miller/Nordyne serial numbers read.

090200260

09= 2009.
02=February
260 = 260th unit built that month

The original poster did not state the BTU or Date of Manufacture. We have seen this problem only on the 80K units. We have had units that were manufactured in both 07 & 08 with this problem. Not so sure the size is different but the material its made out of is. With these vent safety switches tr...

Russ, There are several things it could be.......... But check this first as this has been a common problem with the M3. Remove the inducer motor bell housing, its held in by 3 5/16" headed screws. You may have to loosen the pvc vent from the bell housing. In the back of the bell housing there ...

Ron I am not sure in the owners manual or spec guides have any info about not running an A/C unit with this furnace. However the CMFs have always come with a tag/sticker in the furnace that states do not run with Split System A/C. On the brand new furnaces the tag is located on the lower portion of ...

The CMF Miller is not split system compatible. The MA-100, MA-200 or the CB-200 bases are not coil cabinets. The wiring for the furnace is set up as a simple 2 wire heat only furnace. You need to use a self contained A/C with this furnace. Also a damper so the A/C does not sweat the heat exchanger o...

As a previous post recommended try "Glidden Gripper" We use it when refurbing bank repos. It has excellant adhesion qualities. Hence the name Gripper. It also out performs Sherwins best primer in coverage. (had both products on the same job once - no comparison) I believe the recommended c...
