Other Sports (Tiger's Back) / Re: What are the risks of not cleaning air ducts for years?

« on: July 07, 2025, 08:59:04 AM »

IMO ducts should be cleaned after construction and then every 5 to 10 years or so. If you have a good air cleaner and purifier, you don't need a cleaning once you get a good post construction cleaning.

Good filtration is a 5 inch media system or better.

Air purifier would be a downstream product by RGF, Dust Free, etc. that produce plasma streams.

i think the plasma generating products have been largely de-bunked. I'm not saying they are doing harm, but I think the benefits appear to have been greatly exaggerated. I think COVID kind of put those claims to the test and none of them ended up passing that test

also, 5 inch media system? for a residential unit? in this economy?? holy BHP batman

Meh. Charlatans tried to use them for something that is beyond their abilities.

They absolutely rock for daily allergens. I'm highly allergic to cats. Asthma, congestion, etc. Slap in a purifier and whammo. No allergies. My wife gets to keep her cat.

Don't be a tight wad. Get the appropriate setup.

Construction cleaning is important because every lazy ass contractor just sweeps their daily pile into the outlets unless the HVAC sub has used boot covers.

Park Hyatt Zurich. is this helpful?

i should add that this was the fanciest hotel i've ever stayed at and i felt out of place at the time. the shower and bath were my favorite part. like this must be how lady gaga or whoever lives.

some other ones that come to mind that i've stayed at, thanks to the cc thread:

- Eliza Jane new orleans. beautiful and uniquely restored historic hotel with modern amenities, perfect location (quarter adjace but not in the quarter)
- Andaz 5th avenue: very very nice but i won't stay in midtown again. a suffocating amount of the most boring type of tourist everywhere, and like nothing cool nearby?
- Hotel du Louvre: an incredible flex if you're going with a romantic partner. very adorable classic paris building across the street from its namesake. cool private exterior balconies to take in the street scene, great location from which to explore Paris.

Thank you

A year and a half later and I still love my HM. Totally worth the money.

I needed a chair for when I’m working from Ms TBT house so I got this one. It’s pretty comfy and like a tenth of the cost of my HM. She liked it too and might get a white one.

I had that chair and upgraded. Daughter still uses my old chair.
