DiskDoctr,
Thanks you for your very informative and useful post.
Must have taken a while to write that - I appreciate it.
My tanks assuredly have the old original basic regulator. I know there is only one there and it feeds everything.
If the temperature stays warmer than -26C (-15F) then all seems to be well. I only had that one trip down to -32C for a day and since then it has been warmer than that.
I did buy a heating pad for emergency sake if it gets cold again.
The tester kit sounds like something nice to have on hand. I am the type of guy who never has enough tools! Always willing to buy more of them!
Don't think I have any leaks. I have a nose on me like a bloodhound and I can smell things from afar that most people can't smell up close. I would have noticed if I had a leak.
I definitely agree about pushing my system to the limits.
I am within about a week of heading home. They want me back to do more work but I'm undecided on that one. Working outside in January and February in Calgary doesn't exactly sound like a fun picnic!
I may come back, but only maybe.If I do I want to do some mods first. Tank heaters for one. I checked out a place someone gave me the link on Ultraheat. Did a quick calculation and I need about $750. to do that mod.
And gotta do something better with these windows. I have some foam stuck in some of them from the inside, but it was only a quick solution while I was here. I have some 4.5 mil tinted acrylic and want to make some inside storms that will go right on the frame itself.
Of course I could stay in a motel, but wheres the fun in that?
Thanks again for your help.
