I ordered the control module and received it very quickly. After installing it (which really did take less than 5 minutes) I flipped the switch on the pool heater and the burner ignited instantly. Perfect solution if you igniter looks good but seem to e getting no or weak spark.

I was a little concerned about buying a dozen filters at over $100 without trying one first. I've been very pleasantly surprised. They are every bit as good as, if not better than, the Filtrete "Micro Allergen" filters that I normally use (which cost about 50% more.) These filters are structural sound, in fact, I think they are more sturdy than the Filtrete filters. That is the characteristic that I was most nervous about as I've previously had discount filters (from other manufactures) buckle and collapse inside my ducts. The filtering media itself also appears to be high quality. I've had them installed for several weeks now and everything appears to be working well. I will definitely buy Nordic Pure filters again.

This fan pushes a *lot* of air in a very narrow stream, and is fairly quiet about it.

* The yellow part pivots at least 180 degrees, as I have rotated mine back so that the air exit is right above the floor (as I'm using it as a cold air return booster fan for our belabored central AC system, which has far more output vent area than cold air return area).

* The cord is very thick, about 6 feet long, with a grounded 3-prong plug; that's good, especially since the fan has two grounded outlets right on it, which have a circuit breaker; they are labeled max 10 amps each.

* The fan has three speeds, and is truly three speeds: I refuse to buy fans that count "off" as one of the speeds.

* The box says the fan has 100 blades, and it's a squirrel cage fan (sucks air in through the sides, forces it out through the front, just like a blow dryer.

* The case is made of heavy plastic and feels solid.

* The fan sounds like white noise, there is no vibration or phasing.

Well, this makes five of these fans that we have purchased and they are great. My husband and I are very hot natured and could never find a fan that really did the job, until we discovered these. They come in two sizes and this is the small one. We have the large one in the garage with our excercise equipment and the others in the house in various rooms. Instead of blowing around hot air it almost feels like it is blowing cooled air. We think they are great. They also do a great job of drying out damp carpet, towels etc.

Purchased two of these Stanley pivoting fans to use while camping, since its been so hot out. It did a wonderful job plus it has outlets to plug in other items to it. Wonderful to have it piviot to where you really want the air.

Honest reviews on Stanley 655704 Multi Purpose Pivoting Utility Fan

This has proven to be quite a versatle fan. I have used it to quickly dry my wet-mopped floors on high humidity days and to dry rugs after pet accident cleanup. It has been really good as a room fan although a bit noisy since that is probably not its main purpose. BUT, short of standing in front of an air conditioner's cool air vent, nothing feels better than to stand in front of this fan!!

The only downside is that it uses somewat more power than my non-squirel cage 15" fan (a trade-off one needs to consider for the extra airflow it provides). On low, medium, and high it uses 76w, 85w, and 103w, respectively. Whereas my 15" fan uses 45w, 53w, and 65w. (Measurements taken using my Kill A Watt EZ.)

My son has 2 desktop computers in his room and it is also the room farthest from the main AC and so it got much hotter in his room than the rest of the house. I did not need something just to move the air around, I needed to actually cool off the room and the solution..... place this fan on 1 of the 2 lowest settings (highest settings are a bit much for indoors) right over the floor vent and it pulls more air from the AC central unit vents without any noticeable effect on the other rooms. It lowered the temperature in his room by at least 5-8 degrees or more (it was over 10 degrees hotter originally). It is a much cheaper solution than buying a AC window unit for his room. We can always use it to dry carpets when we shampoo our carpets also which it does very well (you can use those higher settings). I can safely say it is the best fan we have ever bought and the most versatile by far. Highly recommended.

We purchased the Frigidaire FRA083PT1, because loading our large air conditioner

into the window was becoming too difficult. We've been quite pleased with it.

It is 90 deg out and a cool 77 deg inside cooling 600 sq ft. We keep the other

rooms closed off. I've also had the door of my office open for a while and it quickly cooled that space as well. The only thing I don't like is its large size and the fact that

the window attachment piece was too large for the 23" wide window we wanted to put it in and had

to cut the plastic piece down to fit.

Overall, this was a great purchase. The unit is not that large, about the size of a large kitchen garbage can, and cooled a 10x10 foot room from 85 degrees to 77 in an hour. It is definitely much quieter than any window unit I've used. Once it gets to your set temperature, it maintains it with a minimum of noise.

The biggest negative is the space needed behind the unit to run the exhaust duct to the window. For some reason, the output is at the bottom so you have to give enough room for the duct to double back and that requires about another foot of space between the window and the AC itself.

Although it's heavy, the casters make it easy to move if needed. Installation was quite easy, with very little assembly required.

Lots of great features, including fan only, heat, and dehumidify, and the remote is handy and easy to use.

I was skeptical about buying my first portable AC but am about to order a second one to replace our living room window unit.

Best Deals on Frigidaire FRA093PT1 9,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner with Remote

I've had the item for less than two weeks. As I live in an area that needs dehumidifiers more often than A/C, I wanted a combo unit that was easy to pull out and put to work for especially hot, humid weeks and visitors, to supplement my basement dehumidifier. Knowing portable A/C units require frequent pan changes or drain hoses, I bought this item based on limited local availability of portable 9000BTU units. Out of the box, it worked fine. I was badly annoyed to find out that the hose drain plug is cheap, poorly made/leaky plastic, and, despite being located half way up the unit (about knee high), the entire unit had to be elevated 18" to keep the hose "below the unit", and level, per the instructions. Awkward and unsightly as this setup was in my dining room, it worked effectively, both dehydrating and cooling well. Not needing it for the rest of the week, I packed up the attachments, detached and coiled the hose, and pushed them all against the wall. The next time I set the system up, the hose leaked at the hose connection (flooding the floor) and was VERY easily overtightened, popping almost entirely out of the hose and leaking badly. After checking the hose seal & threads, I wiggled and shifted the hose and tightened it to the "sweet spot" where it was neither overtightened or leaky, I taped the hose to the wall to keep it from shifting to maintain the seal. Finally, it did not leak, but now, it would only drain from the pan in the bottom, and would stop every hour to have the pan emptied, so I disconnected the hose, and took it out to drain and check it for clogs/kinks nothing, worked fine, all clear. Hooked it back up to similar effect. There is nothing in the manual about this problem, no answers online, despite many complaints from similar Frigidaire products, and customer service has nothing to offer beyond "take it back". At 80 pounds dry, more now that it's wet, my answer was "really???" I paid twice as much as I did for my last unit, which was 1 size smaller and had similar qualities.

The exhaust hose was also a nightmare. I had to tightly safety-wire the hose cap to the window fixture to keep it from backing out, and the rigidity of the hose kept forcing the window bracket out of alignment in the window, even over shifts as small as a centimeter. Also note: the hose doesn't fit in the storage spot with the caps on, so you have to screw& unscrew the caps every time you use it.

By the time I was done, the elegant design on the box was lost in extensive jerry-rigging. There are a lot of crappy models out there, so as an educated consumer, I'm used to being disappointed and making due but this is ridiculous. I wasted 8 hours of my life troubleshooting this. It's not worth the effort. Buy another brand or just save your money for something worthy.

Honest reviews on Frigidaire FRA093PT1 9,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner with Remote

The Frigidaire FRA093PT1 runs very quite and the wheels make it very easy to move from room to room. When the compressor starts up, there is a little noise as to be expected. As long as the unit is on a level surface there is not to much noise. Shipping was a promised and it arrived in good shape and on time.

I bought the FRA 093PT1 earlier this summer (2012). I bought it for my porch which is mostly windows and faces west, so I bought a unit a couple thousand BTUs more than considered necessary. All the windows are vertical and I knew the window kit that came with the unit wouldn't work, but I just cut a piece of plywood to fit the window opening and put a sheet metal collar in it (I think 6 inch) and duct-taped the AC hose to the opening. It looks ok. The only thing I need to remember is to crank open the window before turning the unit on. The first couple of days I had a lot of condensation, but once the air in the room was 'conditioned' I didn't need to empty the bucket more than a couple of times a week. Yes, it's a little louder than a window unit, but it just becomes white noise for me as I mostly read and study on the porch. If it continues as it has this summer for the next 3 or 4 years I'd be happy to give it 5 stars.

My coffee/tea stayed hot all night!!! I usually take a long time to finish a cup of tea or coffee especially when I'm online surfing the web, and I got used to drinking them cold. I searched for a long time for an electric beverage warmer and finally took a chance on this one. I just hit the jackpot. I gave it a 5 star rating even with the short cord (about 45 inches) because the manufacturer gave a reason why (safety issues).

All parts present, no plastic smell noted, looks just like in the picture, made in China (but everything seems to be made in China these days), hot plate is 3.5 inches in diameter and hot enough to burn your finger (I don't recommend touching it although I did)...

Hi,

I wanted to write a review of this product because the other 1 comment was unfairly negative.

The Norpro electric beverage warmer is a nice little tea or coffee warmer that does exactly what it's supposed to do: Keep drinks warm.

It is not a device to boil water so don't make negative reviews because it doesn't do that.

It keeps drinks at about 120 degrees Fahrenheit, (to me) the perfect drinking temperature.

It has a nice weighty feel and has a illuminated button so you know it's on.

I would like to see an auto-shut off feature but it costs less than $20 so it's still a nice value.

Try one out. It's nice to have your tea warm the whole day.

This is the 3rd purchase of this item I have made. The first was a gift and lasted about 20 years. I have had the 2nd one in my office for perhaps 10 years and just bought one for my office at home. Keeps the beverage warm, will heat it up if cool to begin with; there is no smell and it does not burn or deface the desk surface. The on/off button is right on the warmer. Excellent choice--no reason to switch to another brand.

Honest reviews on Electric Beverage Warmer

This product does a good job of keeping the coffee hot once you're down to about a half a cup. While it won't keep a full cup hot, I can usually drink enough of it before that's an issue. I like that the on/off switch is on the unit itself rather than the cord, and that there is a light so you can see if you've left it on. The cord is on the short side, might be nice if it were a bit longer.

Having wanted something to keep my coffee warm on my desk, this one fit the bill nicely.

It is simple, has an easy wipe surface, and the on/off switch is lit up so you can see

if you left it on.

It does not have an auto/shutoff but I don't see any danger.

it will keep your coffee hot for hours, but leaves the handle unaffected. Well worth

the price.

Discount Amico AP11000 11,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner

Amico AP11000 11,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner
Customer Ratings: 4 stars

Works fantastic for my needs but before you purchase please read the following:

I use this unit in a 12x16 bedroom size for an office. I did install it in many areas of the house to see where it would function best in accordance with the specification. First, it is not for a living room where it opens up to the kitchen, hall, other rooms unless you only want cool air and only if the weather is in low 80 degrees or less. It won't cool like you want it to. It's just not made for that, and besides, the product description tells you 400 sq. ft. So my advice for you is to research before purchasing any portable air conditioner because every manufacturer will tell you the size of the room it will be coldest (I know, I own two other portable air conditioners, from other manufactures and they are dead on when they tell you the size of room their unit works best for cold air).

Second, you must follow the instructions that come with this unit (very simple) or else you are doomed and your unit will not work correctly. It does not tell you in the product description that you must leave at least 1.6 ft. (50cm) space all around the unit, but the instructions that come with it does. I wish I would have known this before I bought it because I almost didn't have the space required. If you don't follow this recommendation, it will run warm air; compressor cuts off every 10 minutes and fan blows warm--there are two vents on each side (right/left) and one in back that need that scope. I hooked it up for a day without the correct space and thought my unit was defective because it was always blowing out warm air, but after I shifted to the correct space needed it worked perfect.

All portable air conditions make noise and the 3 different ones I own make somewhat the similar sound. This one is a low humming which I find very soothing but for those of you, who can't bear the slightest sound, you will need to find an alternative solution other than a portable unit, because you won't find silence in a portable unit. The compressor is inside and doesn't hang outside like a window unit; so, you'll never be satisfied with any of this type of unit. I also read reviews from customers dissatisfied with the LED display lights for other similar air conditions. This unit does not have blaring LED lighting but there are display lights which are not that noticeable or bothersome.

The window adapter for the exhaust hose (circumference of hose is 19") is 52" long/tall so you can adjust it to whatever size you need for either horizontal or vertical use which seals the window nicely from outside elements and is very thin--3-1/2" wide. It comes with weather strips to insulate even further.

I purchased this unit because it is 1/3 smaller than other units; self evaporative system exhausts most of the condensate water minimizing the need to empty the internal bucket; it has a remote control; and it has a timer to set on or off. And to my pleasant surprise, it runs cold air to the point of freezing if you allow it to (but remember only in the allotted space recommended for). Another thing to keep in mind is that I ran this unit in 90 degree weather with very little humidity (west coast).

All in all, this unit meets my needs exceptionally well and the following are the desirable features:

1. very good air output; lots of volume and pressure

2. very cold output; even if you move it to a wide-open living room area; cool air is obtainable

3. easy to move around on the coasters that come on the unit

4. all the features that are mentioned on the product description are absolutely fabulous; and

5. this portable air conditioner is reasonably priced

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

This Amico Portable Air Condition has served us well since its purchase. Living in Southern California can bring the heat during summer, and this unit has worked admirably in our finished attic cooling the room to a comfortable temperature in a very short time.The only drawback is its energy consumption. The month it was used showed a considerable $80 jump in the electric bill. But at $4 per day (for the 20 days that our guests were in town), that made a usually unusable space livable during a hot summer month, I believe it was a great investment. As an added bonus, the predictable water condensation problem has been nonexistent.

The air conditioner cools off our master BR nicely. It is loud, but that's fine for me and my husband (since white noise isn't bothersome to us). The problem is that it stops running after a couple of hours indicating that water needs to be emptied. There's a cap to remove to drain the water, but no water has ever come out of that hole. It's very odd. My husband has to lift up the unit and I put a foot soaking pan under one of the corners and some water drains out---we just don't know from where exactly. It's strange (and a pain).

I purchased this portable air conditioner a month ago from another site. It is 100 degree's here and my closed off bedroom is 86 degrees. For 11000 btu I find this much to warm. Also you must dump the water every eight hours or so on most days, so you find yourself draining the unit in the middle of the night at times. Also the drain plug is so near the floor I had to build a stand two inches high for it to stand on so a pan could be placed beneath the spout to drain. I use a round cake pan and it is near the top when the unit is drained. Also I have noticed the kids bump into it a lot and knock it over and water soaks the carpet because it is on the stand. Also I have had to fashion a cover over the top of the exhaust out the window to keep the rain from coming into the exhaust hole... beware.
