Allergies and Skin Problems
This is a compilation of thoughts on allergies in Boston Terriers from a number of resources and might well provide the basis for questions to your vet before, during and after treatment. An engaged and knowledgeable "parent" is the best thing a Boston Terrier can hope for. Summary Just like in people Allergy testing will run up huge bills, don't do it right away. When dogs, in this case Bostons develop severe rashes and skin infection some thought has to be given as to the root cause.
Combine those with other causes such as grass, pollen, wheat, corn, and beef. The yeast and fungus condition that can set in as a
result is very itchy, red irritable, and can cause "Malassezia
pachydermatis." The
skin becomes thickened, scaly, and of course the dog stinks, along with
its bedding. The appearance resembles elephant hide—usually has little
hair because the hair can't grow.
With my dog, the feet were so swollen they looked like one big
blob, no distinguishable toes. They
itched and the dog chewed them until they bled. The symptoms can be mistaken for mange, and mange
could accompany it as well as a stress induced condition.
To preclude mange, skin scrapes must be done in several areas, at
least 4. Otherwise, we'll
assume mange is not an issue in this discussion: In rescue we usually get dogs with conditions that should have been addressed much earlier by owners were but ignored, so the stages are likely advanced. The skin scrape should be done as soon as possible upon receiving the dog. While it may be a bit nasty; I suggest that the dog get no more than a clear water rinse & hand scrub before this is taken. The vet has to devote more than a quick glance at the slides to determine the presence of a demo or Sarcoptic mite. A note here is obligatory; it is imperative to be dealing with a non-predatory vet in order to survive this first phase without paying the application fees for the kid's college. Allergy treatment in dogs as it is in humans can be very expensive. So after the examination, and back home, it is time to give the dog an initial bath to clean him up. Depending on the condition of the skin the dog could be a little sensitive, but will probably enjoy the relief with a lukewarm bath. If nothing else; it removes a bit of the scale "dandruff" and tones down the smell a bit. Yogurt reminder: Do not use : "Lite or Light" yogart based products, they have artificial (dog deadly) sweeteners. The most effective way to apply the shampoo is to
thoroughly wet the dog. Home depot sells an extended shower hose to make
the tub bathing easier. This
suggestion is the ONLY way to wash the dog and wash away filth
effectively. Mix a 50/50 solution of Maleseeb shampoo in a plastic bottle that a vet might give you a sample in. The shampoo with not get as wasted and can be easily applied all over the dogs body. Remember: oatmeal shampoo with a yeast infection may promote the condition, so in this case I've chosen to avoid it. It is expensive to test for allergies, (talk to a
human doctor familiar with allergies; one could spend thousands and not
get a definitive answer). My
vet says testing for grass, pollen, etc. is ok, but it is a waste of
money testing for food. The
best way is to start with potato based food and nothing else.
The worse thing we did while trying to get our dog better was
give her treats. Pig ears sent her into a wild scratching frenzy and can
also be dangerous to a healthy dog.
Milk Bone ® did the same. The
one treat we know doesn't bother her is "Dingo® sticks" that are
green—the red ones obviously have dye that bothers her.
This yeast infection seems to be part of the whole allergy deal.
We keep our dog away from most every type of meat but chicken and
lamb, and venison is great. She
loves it. Fish even seems to
bother her. IAMS® has a
lamb and rice type "milk bone" that doesn't bother her either. Go for the obvious get a dog food that has little
or no wheat, no corn, and no beef. Natural Balance Sweet potatoes
& fish, or Duck and Potato, I think Nutro has one and there may be
others. Make sure no pork
either. I saw something on
the internet at www.bluedognutrition.com--they
sell the type products we need for these yeasty, allergy prone dogs.
I haven't tried it yet, but that's my next bag of food. Get on one of those, no table food, no milk bone diet etc, stick with it may take 6-8 weeks for the "toxins in the body to wear out and the new diet to start showing," relief" but continuing with "normal" foods will untimely delay the progress. Some folks boil chicken and rice, But that diet may be lacking nutrients, so I would be feeding some Pet Tabs, which I try now in conjunction with the above. I have not experimented with the raw diet, and will leave that to someone familiar with those results. My dog will eat mashed potatoes with butter mixed in, sweet potatoes, and even broccoli. I also put a Vitamin E—punctured and squeezed on her food about 3x a week and Fish Oil caps done the same way about 2x a week. Notes: Assuming the vet is knowledgeable steroid (commonly
prednisone) use needs to be at a minimum low dosage and only for perhaps
five days to provide some initial itch relief. A prolonged use and heavy dosage of prednisone will
promote many undesired effects and can produce Cushings disease; another
common mistake is a long enduring Rx for antibiotics. While it is an older medicine ketikonizale in
conservative dosage, given with something oily like Velveeta and some
food 1x per day, followed by the regular meal at nite for a 60-90 day
duration, combined with the bathing should start to reap some noticeable
improvement. After my
dog started showing signs of improvement, I started giving her ½ pill a
day; however, to completely go off of the ketikonizale let the yeast
come back within a week. I
give the pill with a little butter smeared around it and it gulped right
down. Ketikonizale may promote some ill feelings at
first, it is important to feed some food with it, and after a couple
days, there might be temporary loss of appetite. Be hesitant to go with
too high a dosage to avoid multiple side effects. We found that not only did our dog have the yeast infection, but also had a low grade staff infection which kept the skin thick and smelly. Antibiotics have really helped. It took about 5 weeks of medication for that to clear up and the skin to get nicer. Additional notes: As one of the dogs involved in this "study" was
improving, I was given some Omega 3 fish oil tabs and a bottle of
Immugen (www.holisticpetinfo.com).
The improvement, while continuing the ongoing treatment was nothing less
than remarkable. I am thinking about increased use of the fish oil
gelcaps and the Immugen tabs as supplement for both healthy and ailing
dogs as well. The only other thing I would mention is that I
finally (after a year) got Allie some booties. These have a
non-skid bottom and velcro around the top so they fit snuggly.
Before that I bought baby socks and used rubber bands. When she
has those itchy days, I can put the socks/booties on her and it keeps
her from damaging her skin more and opening up old places. It
really helped her to heal. I got the booties from JB Pet for $4.95
a pair.

— A document has been finalized that controls what can and can't be done to historic buildings and property at Fort Monroe after the Army leaves in September 2011.The 570-acre post on the Chesapeake Bay is protected as a national landmark, which requires the Army to draft an agreement with the future caretakers. It provides protective measures for features ranging from the exterior of a building to the historic view from a casemate.
Future caretakers, the Fort Monroe Federal Area Development Authority, will refer to the agreement when making available buildings for lease as homes, shops, office space or some other purpose. More than 30 groups had influence on the document, including the state Department of Historic Resources and the Army, Indian tribes, the Buckroe Civic Association and others.
The authority's executive director, Bill Armbruster, complimented the Army for conducting the process in a careful way and including groups to protect the post for "generations to come."
However, Mark Perreault of the local grassroots group Citizens for a Fort Monroe National Park said that after the consulting groups commented on the agreement this past summer, there was little or no information about the documents until an announcement this week that it is being signed.
The agreement was discussed at a meeting Thursday of the Fort Monroe Area Development Authority, which will oversee the historic post after the Army leaves.
The authority also received an update on environmental cleanup at Fort Monroe. The post has a variety of issues, including old cannonballs and bullets in the sand, lead-based paint on buildings, pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs).
The Army and state Department of Environmental Quality are in negotiations for how far out in the water the Army should look for old munitions, said state DEQ chief deputy Richard F. Weeks Jr. The issue is how deep in the water can somebody practically dig up an old cannonball and bring it ashore. The Army says testing up to 3 feet of water depth off shore is sufficient.
Additionally, the state is looking for some guidance on what to do with a former landfill site near the north end, on the Mill Creek side of the road, not the Chesapeake Bay side. The former landfill is near a marsh on the northern end. If it is kept as a natural area, it could remain sand dunes, Weeks said. If it is a recreation area, the landfill might have to be capped with clay, similar to Mount Trashmore Park, a former landfill in Virginia Beach.
The authority also heard from a consultant regarding a real estate management strategy and goals for the fort. Authority members recommended the goals include beach tourism, heritage tourism, inviting tenants with environmentally-friendly "green" technology and better inclusiveness of minorities in the process.

Struggling SD hospital faces insolvency
Wausau Daily Herald / Associated Press, March 5, 2012
The South Dakota governor's office is brokering a deal to keep the doors open at Bennett County Hospital, an isolated critical-care facility on the Nebraska border that has been plagued by financial problems. But hospital administrators say the deal won't fix the underlying problems that have pushed the Martin facility into insolvency. The problem is twofold, hospital CEO George Minder said: Medicaid reimbursements from the state have dropped in recent years, and Indian Health Services refuses to reimburse the hospital for most treatment of tribal members.

Inspired by the Kids Count report, five Gazette writers picked one topic
each - banking, transportation, computers, education and recreation - to
explore in coming weeks in the Gazette's Community section.
This week, staff writer Susan Williams explores the trials of working

Poverty ties in with all kinds of social ills - low grades in school, poor nutrition, violence, even asthma and shorter life expectancy. But poverty is about more than money. Poor people can't get at the opportunities and services middle-class Americans take for granted. So the poor often sink into a cycle of day-to-day survival, which often ensures that their children will be poor too. In West Virginia, that's one of every five people.
This year's Kids Count Databook compiled a list of opportunities and services from which poor families are often excluded. Inspired by the Kids Count report, the Gazette chose five of these topics to explore in coming weeks in the Community section.

WBB: Poppens Shines, No. 25 Iowa State Rolls TCUBy Rob Gray, Reporter
AMES, Iowa —Fifteen remains Chelsea Poppens' magic number.
So far, anyway. The Iowa State forward grabbed that many rebounds in a game for the third time this season Saturday, which helped the No. 25 Cyclones to a 68-52 Big 12 win over TCU before 9,745 fans at Hilton Coliseum. "I think I just got on a roll," Poppens said. "My energy stayed the same. Nikki (Moody) got me the open looks when I needed it, Brynn (Williamson) got me the open looks when I needed it. They just saw me." Hard to miss. Poppens finished with a season-high 24 points, too, including six during a pivotal 13-2 run late in the first half that gave ISU (12-2, 3-1) the lead for good. The basket that put the Cyclones in front 21-20 came off a missed free throw, which she hustled to grab, then push through the hoop. It's her second such play in the past three games — and something coach Bill Fennelly finds particularly impressive. "It's timing, it's effort," Fennelly said. "It's, 'I'm going to go get the damn ball.' That's what it is. ... That is a hard thing to do and you don't see many people do it because most kids, number one, kind of stand there. They don't really make the effort to go get it. But that's the kind of thing that has endeared her to our fan base." It's also become the bane of opposing coaches. "She works her tail off every play," said Horned Frogs coach Jeff Mittie, whose team fell to 7-8, 0-4. She wasn't alone Saturday, but it took awhile for ISU to turn effort into anything but frustration. TCU controlled the game most of the first half, leading by as many as seven points. Then the Cyclones finally heated up and the Horned Frogs fell into a funk. ISU turned a 20-16 deficit into a 29-24 halftime lead despite losing 11 turnovers before the break. "You cant turn the ball over 11 times when somebody's sitting in a zone," Fennelly said. "That's just bad decision making. ... But we got to halftime, doing OK. We tell our kids, 'Just keep guarding until somebody makes a basket.'" ISU made 50 percent of its shots after starting out 4 of 19. Hallie Christofferson drained 4 of 9 3-pointers while scoring 14 points. Anna Prins added eight points and 10 rebounds. Poppens finished 8 of 13 from the field and became the fourth player in program history to surpass 900 rebounds (910). Not that she'd know it. "She's not that kind of kid," Fennelly said, "which is probably why she's good as what she does."

- Meanwhile, place the sugar, butter and cream in a small pan and gently heat together, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Pour the sauce over the muffin mixture and serve warm with ice cream.
Recipe from Good Food magazine, September 2010
Comments, questions and tips
Really tasty, simple and quick. Made one large instead of individuals though I'd probably make ramekins next time and use a muffin less as there was more than enough...I even had to eat a few chunks;o) Didn't soak the fruit but did dribble a little marsala over the sponge, only about a tablespoonful. The make ahead suggestion didn't work though...the muffins soaked up the sauce. Made another batch of sauce when we were ready for pud. Possibly a happy accident as the sponge was lovely and moist.
This was very delicious and quick to make, replaced the sultanas with chopped banana and it was perfect. Make sure you really crumble the muffins up though, if you just break it into 'chunks' there are too many gaps and the sauce just sinks through to the bottom. Loved the hot and cold combo when it has a scoop of ice-cream on top!

Law Firm Challenge
Georgetown Law welcomes Jud Starr (L'75) as its newest Law Firm Challenge chair!
As a partner at Venable's Washington, DC office, Jud focuses his practice on corporate clients facing serious and complex environmental contingencies. He currently serves as vice-chair of the Board of Directors of MedStar Georgetown University Hospital and co-chair of the Advisory Board of Georgetown Law's Corporate Council Institute. In addition, he has actively served as an alumni volunteer through the Law Firm Challenge since 2002. Venable has reached 100% alumni participation every year since 2003, which is largely due to Jud's dedication to the program, the institution, and their combined mission.
The Law Firm Challenge is an annual fundraising competition in which participating firms vie for the highest percentage of alumni giving and most dollars raised for the Law Center. In 2012-2013, the program involved more than 2,600 alumni at 62 firms.
Throughout the Challenge, volunteers (or "agents") at participating firms correspond with alumni colleagues and encourage them to support the Law Annual Fund. Gifts to the Fund provide critical resources for core programs including:
- Financial Aid
- Clinics
- Journals
- Centers and Institutes
- Equal Justice Foundation (EJF) Summer Fellowships
- The Edward Bennett Williams Library
- Student Organizations
It's important to note that any gift to Georgetown Law, made by an alumnus/alumna at a participating firm (between July 1st and June 30th), counts toward Law Firm Challenge credit.
At the end of the competition, the names of the firms that reach 100% alumni participation are engraved on a plaque that's displayed outside the Office of Career Services in McDonough Hall. The names of the firms that raise the most money for the Law Center (in their repective groups) are engraved on a trophy that's kept in the Law Alumni Lounge (Hotung Intl. Law Building). All donors are recognized on the Georgetown Law website.
For more information about the Law Firm Challenge, please contact Dave Stone, Associate Director of the Law Annual Fund at 202-662-9375 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Aaron Goldberg: Growing as a Band Leader
" Jazz is not about copying stuff that came before you. It�s about imitating, assimilating and then looking ahead and looking inside yourself to find out who you are. "
All About Jazz: What was it like growing up in Boston as a musician, has it helped?
Aaron Goldberg: Boston has a good jazz scene because of all the schools. Lots of young people come to Boston to learn how to play and basically it's a city of jazz pedagogy (we have Berklee and the New England Conservatory), and there are a lot of teachers who teach privately around Boston that also teach at Berklee, like Jerry Bergonzi, who I studied with. Some people move to Boston in order to teach and they also play around Boston in all the clubs. The club scene is pretty happening.
There are also people who move to Boston to study and obviously they never leave. There's a large contingent of people who come to Berklee from places like Portugal, and then they go back. Then there is another large contingent that comes to Boston from places like Portugal and move to New York. And then there is yet the third contingent of people that move to Boston to study and then stay. There are a lot of musicians in Boston. There aren't necessarily that many places to play, considering the huge number of musicians.
AAJ: Why is that?
AG: Boston suffers from the fact that most often the best and most ambitious musicians move to New York. The number of musicians is extremely high and the level of musicianship is extremely high compared to other places in the States, but not compared to New York.
There are two top-tier jazz clubsScullers and the Regattabar. They both had great artists coming to town when I was growing up so I was able to sneak in. I was too young to really get in legally, but I had some friends who worked at the door of the Regattabar. Actually, a good friend of mine, who subsequently got married to Ravi Coltrane used to work at the door of the Regattabar. I was sixteen and I would go there with my high school friends and she would sneak us into the corner. I remember sitting next to Tommy Flanagan and Kenny Barron, hearing all the greatest pianists. I was just a kid in the corner. They wouldn't serve many drinks but they let me in.
AAJ: So what you are saying is that growing up in Boston affected your attraction to jazz.
AG: I think if I hadn't grown up in a city with a sizable jazz scene I wouldn't have been fortunate enough to hear all those great musicians at such a young age and stay inspired. Also I never would have discovered jazz if I hadn't gone to my high school, because there was a guy who studied at Berklee, Bob Sinicrope, who was a math teacher at my high school and then started to teach jazz classes. I feel it is a great stroke of luck that I am playing music for a living and, if circumstances had been different, I might may be doing something completely different.
AAJ: You started studying piano when you were seven years old. What kind of piano?
AAJ: You weren't thinking about jazz by then?
AG: I didn't know anything about jazz, I had never heard a note of jazz. My parents liked classical music and they had a piano in the house. They both played piano when they were kids. The piano actually belonged to my grandmother, and my father played on and then when my mother's parents died they got their piano. Studying piano was just something like a little family tradition for two generations.
AAJ: And I guess you weren't certainly thinking about becoming a professional jazz musician.
AG: I know that my parents never imagined in their wildest nightmares or dreams that I would become a professional musician and I think it was just one of many things that I was interested in when I was a kid and one of many things that they were interested in me pursuing when I was a kid: sports and music and all the things that a lot of kids do.
AAJ: Were you a disciplined piano student?
AG: I was a good piano student but I certainly wasn't passionate about it. I practiced, my parents told me to practice, and that was the right thing to do. I think that I liked the feeling of accomplishment that came with learning pieces. At some level I think I appreciated the music but I surely didn't understand the classical music that I was learning when I was eleven or thirteen years-old. I didn't understand how songs were written, I didn't understand the relationship between symphonies and sonatas, I really didn't know anything about classical music but I knew how to translate dots on the page into sounds. That was a skill that I had acquired. It wasn't until I studied jazz in high school that the whole world of music opened up to me and I started to feel an emotional connection to the music I was playing.
AAJ: In Portugal we don't have jazz classes in high school. How does it work in the USA?

Does anyone have knowledge of how radiant electric ceiling heat was installed 40 years? Is the heat grid contained in the actual ceiling panels? Is it laid atop the drywall in some kind of grid? How is the electric service run to the grid? Can the ceiling panels be repaired (some are cracked and sagging) as drywall would be? Looking to repair or replace as needed. Thanks |

That was typically installed by first putting up one layer of 1/2" drywall, stapling the heating element wire to the drywall and then installing another layer of drywall over the wire. The wire was supposed to have layer of special mastic troweled over it before the second layer of drywall, but this was frequently omitted to pad profits of the installers. The mastic or plaster was supposed to improve thermal conductivity and omitting it probably contributed to burnout of some cables. Refer to NEC Article 424 for code rules. The second layer required extra long fasteners to reach the framing. I would plan to abandon the ceiling heat, install some conventional alternative to it and re-fasten the drywall to the joists. |
Sci Teacher, Did you repair your ceiling? I have a 1952 house w/ elec. rad. ht. and also have sagging and cracks. In the attic, I noticed that the upper drywall had pulled away from the ceiling joists (there's a 2" gap), the nails were still stuck in the joists w/ the nailheads still intact, like the drywall was pulled off! Any description of how you repaired your ceiling or any recommendations for repairing mine would be greatly appreciated (no one in the Norfolk area knows anything about older radiant heating). Thanks! |

You could be dealing with Panelectric (tm). The heating elements are actually embedded within the drywall during manufacturing. It's still on the market. More info @ http://web.irvineonline.net/panelectric/ |

Interesting to see a thread on this. I just moved into a home (built 1955) that has this type of heat but it hasn't been used for quite some time 'as far as I know'. My seller had only been here three years and didn't know anything about it and before that the history is lost. We didn't even know we had it until we started wondering what the little control dials in each room were. We dismantled one to look and husband said it looked like a heating control but beyond that hadn't a clue. I then spoke to the local HVAC guy (small town) when he was here servicing our other system and he said all the houses in my neighborhood had this heat but he didn't know if anyone was using it, or when they had last used it. Each individual room has it's own 220 circuit and all of these breakers were flipped off when we moved in and we haven't touched them. The home has a heat pump (although I am now heating with wood) so I don't need the radiant heat, but have wondered if it could be used or would be just too big a risk to take. The controls in each room just taunt me. I'm so curious to try it out but more afraid of burning the house down. My electrical panel is fairly new and I wondered why they even kept it wired and just didn't disconnect them all, especially seeing as it is 220. The individual room controls are labeled with a logo "Sunwarm". Ring any bells with anyone? |

don't know how old this house is but i do know it's old we have those heating wires on her ceiling covered with that stuff they blow on. The wire burned out in our living/dining room and we have been looking all over for that heating wire where can we buy this. |

We had it didnt like it the heat was all up at the ceiling,now we have heat in the floor radiant.nice. |
The idea behind radiant heating was that you'd feel warm (like standing in the sun) with a lower temperature setting on the thermostat. The problem was that most people robotically set the thermostat where they were used to having it, so it didn't often save any money or energy. To the contrary. Even with insulation, the losses from convection into the space above the ceiling were pretty egregious, especially on homes where that space was unheated attic. Ceiling radiant heat is an interesting historical anomaly. But unless you're really intent on period authenticity, Bus's suggestion is probably the right one - install something more maintainable and more efficient. BTW, I had something similar many years ago, 2x4 radiant panels that dropped into my rec room's drop ceiling grid. I think they were made by Armstrong - called something like "Warm and Safe." I still have one of the spares I bought for that system when the manufacturer discontinued the product. It hangs over my cellar workbench for those cold winter projects. |

I have a 1986 home with electric radiant ceiling. I was working very well and about 6 weeks ago, I changed the thermostat. About 3 weeks later the heat was spiking. I turned off the thermostat and it was still crazy hot. Then I turned off the breaker and it turned down. It ran fine for about 2 weeks, then crazy hot again. I replaced the thermostat and a couple days later, crazy hot. Any ideas? Could the thermostat be hooked up wrong? Could it be the breaker? What else could it be. I actually like the heat until this happened. |
What kind of thermostat did you install? I wonder if perhaps you bought the wrong type, one which can't handle the current your heating system requires. That might cause the thermostat's contacts to weld closed, so that the heat is on all the time rather than cycling on and off. Another possibility is that the thermostat was factory defective, or it might be incorrectly installed. You could try replacing it with a known-good unit. Probably the safest course of action would be to call an electrician to check it out. |

Thank you for your post, I purchased a 1987 home with Radiant Ceiling Heat and had a similar problem in one of the rooms. So I turned the heat off in that room. Would like to be able to use it a little. Let me know if you find a solution. I also like the ceiling radiant heat. I find it as economical as anything else these days. Including the heat pump in the 1994 home I had. |
- Posted by M Electrical Systems(email@example.com) onFri, Mar 18, 11 at 19:29
Most heating panels today are those located in the floor. They have different wiring and are designed to operate under safe conditions. (meaning it will turn itself off if there's an electrical issue). Heat travels upward, Your actually losing a great amount of heat from these wires.It's only convenient if you have a second story.. There is no typical repair other than to "tear out" these wires (and your plaster as well). Most have 220 volts so a qualified electrician should only put their hands on this system... My advice is to abandon the ceiling wires. Leave the breaker off.....until you sell or remodel the place... |

I live in a 1960's 2 story 3 bedroom apt with the electrical heating in the ceiling and i have to say i LOVE it! It is extremely efficient and cheap as you only heat the actual rooms you are in. I spend a lot of time in my office here so only put on that thermostat. Before we go to sleep at night we turn it on for about 10-20 minutes and then turn it off. I would recommend this to anyone trying to save on bills who only uses a few rooms at a time - better than cranking out heat for the whole house - and I hate those heating units that blow air at you from the ceiling - very dusty and annoying trying to close vents in unused rooms. |

does anyone know an installer or someone who can troubleshoot this type of heat? i have this heat and we just had a fire because of the heat wires in the ceiling. my electrician doesnt know anything about it and i cant find any knowledegable person who is willing to look at it. |
I have radiant ceiling heat in my 1965 home. Recently it was necessay to run plumbing through the ceiling in one room. I believe that i have lost the heat in that room. The electrican said it needed a new thermostat but I don't think that it worked. Has anyone had a similar experience and is there a way to correct it? Does going throught the heating elements in the ceiling cause a loss of heat? |
Does going throught the heating elements in the ceiling cause a loss of heat? I haven't worked with any of these systems, but it's a safe bet that if you break a cable it will no longer conduct electricity and thus won't produce heat. That said, I'd expect the cables in the ceiling to be connected in parallel. If you broke one the others should still work - unless the cable you severed was the one which fed the whole parallel array. (Again, though, I'm speculating here, I have no direct experience.) In any case, it sounds like you need to have a chat with your plumber. |

davidr IS WAY OFF BASE!!!! 1st, the purpose of ceiling radiant heat is NOT to make you feel warm as in sunlight, it IS to warm the surfaces below; flooring,furniture,etc.,therefore warming the living space fully from the bottom up!! It's NOT a heatlamp! It is the MOST efficient form of electric heat. Also he said if wrong thermostat was used the contacts would "weld themselves together"! Idiots like this harm people all the time!! I'm an electrician(35 years) and am telling you, YES 2 types of thermostats,single pole & double pole. The heat would be 240V (dbl pole).If a dbl pole thermo was installed, it would `correctly` break BOTH 120V legs of the power. If an `incorrect` 120V(single pole) thermo was installed, but not wired correctly, it could allow continuity thru the heat elements hence still heating BUT the contacts WOULD NOT WELD TOGETHER!!!! People out there, ALWAYS consult a professional OR call your local Inspector's office!! |
- Posted by dscottadkins (email@example.com) on Sat, Jan 25, 14 at 2:26
AGAIN, davidr needs to NOT advise where he could be dangerous/WRONG!!! He's using words like `parallel` when he has NO idea what the hell he's talking about! YES, if your plumber cut thru a ceiling heat wire you lose heating ability! It is a closed loop electrically. Contact a qualified tech (thru internet, etc) to come out and bypass the broken continuity.Also, in reference to other notes I saw, with electric radiant ceiling heat the ceiling DOES NOT GET HOT ABOVE NOR BELOW THE GYPSUM!! Educate yourselves!!! Either way Rickdig, check with professionals-be safe! Good luck!! |
