Did anyone ever read of a study that compared crime when everyone was wearing masks to prior periods when no one was?

You do realize that you’re inviting Vinny to tell you how he buys 300 filters at once and how he organizes them, right? O0
I will say I change mine religiously.

EDIT: uh, I have no idea how your post above changed to being authored by me, Smithers, with my name and my avatar. But, I edited your name back in there. Yikes.

Bizarre! LOL.

I would be riveted by Vinny stories about air filters lmao.

One thing my HVAC guy told me is to not spend money on expensive filters and to just buy the cheap ones. Apparently it doesn't make a difference? Do you have a take on that? Not my area of expertise.

Those are filters for oil burners? If so, my one and only story is that I once asked my oil burner person to look at mine to tell me if it needed replacing. He looked at it and said, "No. You must run a clean house." I told him, No, that is far from the case.

Now that I went mini-splits last December the oil burner has been shut down since.

Although I have read something similar, the guy who installed my first new system back in 2001 told me to get the good ones and change them every 3 months. System lasted about 20 years and when it stopped, it was because of a broken component that I could have replaced. It made more sense to replace the whole unit by then, and the filters had served me well. Btw, need any 20x20x1? O0 I have some left over from the change, unopened.

I’ll split this to its own thread sometime.

Natural gas for my house. Too bad it's not a heat pump, but you can't have everything I guess.

In Massachusetts (and I assume other states) there are some serious, significant rebates for installing mini-splits.
