    Here is the law in BC. This applies to B.C. highways with two or more lanes of traffic travelling in the same direction and a posted speed limit of 80 km/h or greater.

    I've seen worse, people drive to the end of the merge lane and stop waiting for a break in traffic to pull out. Not seen it often, perhaps those they have done it don't survive long.:cool:

    What's your definition of "viable battery powered"? If a smaller machine just takes longer is it not "viable" or just more expensive? If a bigger machine is more awkward to use on a smaller lot and...

    Why would free enterprise develop a market driven solution to the problem of air pollution in the absence of legislation? Remember the issue with the hole in the ozone layer? Free enterprise didn't...

    Yeah, my math was intended to show that in a worst case scenario landscapers still have at least two years to make the transition. Like you say, most areas only cut lawns less than half that time so...

    I think it is far past pilot scale size. Here is a quote from the link I provided earlier:
    "The Massachusetts-based company (Ascend Elements )opened a recycling plant in Covington, Georgia in late...

    But isn't that just a matter of priorities? If you prioritize cost over the health benefits, then you need a gas powered machine to mow a football field but if you prioritize health benefits over...

    Yes, but the ban is not on the use but only the sale of new gas powered lawnmowers etc. Commercial lawnmowers have a life expectancy of about 2500 hours. Assuming 5 hours a day, 5 days a week, 50...

    Interesting in 30+ posts, there have been few if any posts on the benefits of eliminating gas powered landscape equipment.

    Because of lawn watering restrictions, most of the lawns in our neighbourhood look terrible by mid to late July thru early to mid October. Those that look lush and green are probably being illegally...

    One thing to consider, having a well maintained lawn is not a necessity. In many areas lawns are becoming less and less practical as water shortages result in lawn watering bans. We just have a...

    I hear the recommendations not to use outside air but I've yet to hear a specific reason. I don't understand how bringing in outside air in a residential area is a risk. Using air exchanges to...

    Power failure no, but trip a circuit breaker and forget to shut off the switch and have the table saw restart when the breaker was reset. No injury but the potential is there.

    Never heard the term grass board but here's a typical fence design in our area. On the ground is , I think, a 4x6 PT beam, posts are 6x6 PT and 8' long 6' high panels are cedar (no good/bad side,...

    Not sure I follow your logic. You need the fence for dogs (I assume your dogs?) but you're not willing to share the cost because you believe it's his property?
    In our neighbourhood, all the fences...

    Yes we could do it without the outside air fan, adding the fan is intended to save energy by taking advantage of cold outside air in the winter and also give the ability to bring in fresh air when...

    I appreciate your concern although I do not understand what the danger is. The food gets exposed to outside air several times onsite, when we unload it from the delivery truck, when we move it from...

    Thanks for the input, I'm following up on some of the suggestions and still waiting for a response from Inkbird. Project won't be going ahead until June or July unfortunately as we are waiting for a...

    I'll look at automated greenhouse systems, our contractor recommends looking at Honeywell controllers. I suspect any instrument tech could put together the necessary hardware with one hand tied...

    OK but I'm looking for a controller to turn the fans off and on. A heat exchanger is just a piece of hardware, not a controller. A pair of fans with or without an air to air heat exchanger a can do...

    Thanks, I'll have a look and see if they have a solution.
  25. Not sure an air to air heat exchanger would be...

    Not sure an air to air heat exchanger would be applicable in my case. Air to air heat exchangers recover heat from exhaust air to heat incoming air and reduce heat loss. I'm trying to increase heat...
