My gas furnace went out so I’m constantly trying to heat my home in the winter with electric heat. I have about 1600sq ft and my electric bill for winter is close to $400 to $500/month and my house doesn’t even get warm. I use 3 heaters and my oven on. Plugging up more heater blows the circuit so that’s why I have to use oven.

crank the thermostat down, get those cheap 9$ 125w single quartz tube heaters and wire them into a PIR lamp switch with a plug adapter. point them where you sit and forget about them.

Wouldnt your video be the same for ANY heater of the same wattage? I dont understand why you're just talking about Infrared Heaters. Wattage is wattage no matter how it comes out right?

I don't like this, but I appreciate the video explaining what these things are and being honest about it. Down here in Florida and was wondering what this box was.

I’m a small crawlspace contractor in E Tennessee. I turn the lights of in mid-day and look for light coming in I use my flashlight on & off marking light areas with a big fat magic marker. Seal these. I can do most homes with 1 board of 1” foam board and usually 4 boards of 1-1/2”. I use the 1 inch board to create standoffs. I break or cut the board into small 1” squares and put butyl tape on both sides. I like to stick up 2-3 of these standoffs to the outside 2x10. Usually that board is the only thing between the outside and inside. With three standoffs in place I cut a 8.75 x 14.5 piece of 1-1/2” foam board and stick it into the standoffs. Gives me a 1” gap then foam around it. If it’s 11 degrees outside, it’s 65 in the crawlspace.

I have worked on systems at this plant over the years, but was disappointed that this video was really a half commercial/promotion and half educational program, but not all all the "plant tour" promised by the title.

I was on the unit 3 scrubber upgrade, the cooling town he talked about. AEP has sold off its shares of units 1&2

I used to work for a company that did the cleaning of the boilers and other industrial washdown operations. In the unit nearest the cooling tower at the south end, I can remember being practically stuffed into a hatch with a small pry bar to dislodge chunks of cinders from between the boiler tubes. If the cinders could be plucked out, we would put them in buckets to be take out of the hatch. If they had to be poked through to fall onto the next level below, they were. We worked from the top, down cleaning these cinders out. It was a cold, wet job. Wet because a washdown crew had previously hosed the entire thing down to reduce any dust and ash in the boiler. We crawled and worked directly on top of the tubes. Not enough room to even sit up. The work was done laying on out bellies or sides. Scraps of cardboard that could be found were used to lay on top of. During one of my "out of the hole" periods, I was asked to help carry pressure-wash hoses down to the truck. (No, nothing like your 2,000 psi pressure washer at home.) these hoses were 50 feet long, and about 3/4 inch thick. I thought I could carry two of those without any issue. I was wrong. While I did get two down to the truck, I must have turned the wrong way, and tweaked something in my back. That was right before lunch break. I informed my super of the pain, and he put me on the hole instead of having me crawl back in there. The rest of that shift, I sat in a chair at the hole, poking an O2 sensor in every 2 or 3 minutes to ensure the O2 was sufficient for my co-workers in the hole. To the AEP worker who found my 5 D-cell, LED Maglite in the restroom, during lunch hour. I had gone in to use the toilet, and has set the light down on the floor. With the pain I was in, I had forgotten to pick it back up and had gone maybe 50 feet from the shithouse before I noticed. As I turn around to go back.. There you were, grinning like a cheshire cat, hauling ass out of there with my flashlight. I yelled, "That's my light!" you looked at me, shrugged and practically sprinted off around the bend. You're welcome for the expensive light, and fuck you. I hope you lost it soon afterwards.

DIY spray foam with DAP System 600 2-part spray foam kit (aka Touch 'n Foam Professional). Still expensive, but probably less than paying a spray foam contractor.

I did mine with 2” rigid foam and used canned to seal the edges. Takes a lot longer but costs a lot less.

There are lots of ranch style homes that were converted into two stories and where they meet the garage attic space is always a leaking nightmare that can only be ended with spray foam.

The air/goal mixture is blown into the boiler, not the generator.
