Is this true?
I understand the micro inverters, but ultimately everything comes to a common A/C bus, yes? And the size of the A/C bus determines max size of the array?
Is this true?
Impressive at 45!
I would use the wall raceway to add a wall outlet in the right place (or just add an outlet through the wall), then do a straight shot via raceway. In other words, try and avoid the 90 - that is much less common and unclear if it's available.psteinx wrote: ↑Mon Mar 11, 2024 11:11 amYeah, "raceway" seems to be the right term for this.Crimsonandclover wrote: ↑Mon Mar 11, 2024 11:02 am Recommend #3.
Do a search for “floor mounted electrical raceway”.
I could presumably order over the internet, but if I wanted to see/buy it in person, is it typically available at an electric supply specialty store, or what?
Ideally, I'd have the ability to put a 90 degree bend in it at one point (corner piece).
Agreed.Crimsonandclover wrote: ↑Mon Mar 11, 2024 11:02 am Recommend #3.

This would be a cost effective solution that I would try, before going to the best/ most effective (and costly) solution which involves jack hammering the slab.
Besides, if you ever change furniture arrangement in the basement you got this receptacle stuck in the middle of the floor. I just abandoned/covered up a receptacle in my living room so that there were more options for furniture arrangement.
I'd expand this to say a must for anyone doing electrical work, not just DIY. My FIL is a retired master electrician and taught me clearly - on/off/on before working in any box (first test a known live wire to ensure the tester is working, then test the wires you are working on to ensure they are dead, then test the known live wire once more to ensure the tester didn't stop working in the middle).spacemanspif wrote: ↑Mon Mar 11, 2024 9:04 amThis is sage advice. One of the best 10-20 dollar tools I have ever purchased. A must for any DIYer that does any electrical work.Don't do any work in boxes without a NCVT. They are $20 and are an absolute must before you touch any wires.

But depending on family secrets to remain a secret may work out badly.
This looks like good advice... I would take her / him up on it
As noted above though it could be as simple as turning a screw on an hose clamp connecting a drain hose.
Practically, we would not be able to judge without photos / layout of the home. Only you could say
In all seriousness, I may try putting up a cardboard wall. I'm mostly interested in how it will change traffic flow in the house and the overall feel of the room.
Nice work!runningshoes wrote: ↑Thu Jan 25, 2024 1:57 pm Closing this out - new unit arrived yesterday evening, let it sit in the house for about an hour to let it "warm up", 10 minute install, even the holes for hanging it on the side cabinet wall aligned with the previous unit. Used existing filter as in true BH fashion I only replaced it 3 weeks ago and they are NOT cheap.
