Where to buy Fresh 80 air inlet filter replacements

4 Upvotes

I’ve checked all over town and seems no one stocks them. The only website they are available from does not ship to Alaska. Someone has to sell these locally since they’re installed in homes here…

If you return 30 times to get images and video of the same subjects/family you get .... lucky. Who knew? There is video to come but I'm waiting for the cygnets to get their flight wings.

$3000 for Septic Verification Inspection

12 Upvotes

That's the quote I got to do some sort of flow verification of my septic tank so I can refinance my home.

Does that sound right? I don't have the mental capacity to call another plumber for a quote so I figured asking here was at least something I can do to see if I'm getting scammed.

Edit:

Thanks everyone! I got my answer. Prospector Plumbing is the one who gave me the crazy high quote. I'm, uhhh, going to ignore all this now.

The state did a crappy job patching Farmers Loop

Patched a big section by the bend near Grenac, 10 feet away there is still a giant divot. The patches are also far from level or even, might as well have left it alone

Modular home estimates

2 Upvotes

We’re planning on moving back to Fairbanks once my husband is done with the army and are looking at some home options. One of the ones I’m curious about is the Modulars but i don’t wanna give my info out to a bunch of companies just yet. So, I’m curious if anyone here has any first hand experience with the process and if it is worth it. For reference we are wanting to buy land and put a double on it using the Va loan. Any help is appreciated!!!!

Using reindeer to stay warm for camping.

6 Upvotes

I want to purchase a reindeer skin with the goal of being able to sleep on the snow without waking up wondering if my toes are going to fall off. I have a r8 sleeping pad that's overhyped and not really trust worthy for winter adventures. I've slept in true -15 degree weather on a giant foam pad but am looking for something I can sleep at above 0 temps without second guessing weather ill have all my limbs in the morning. My goal is to be able to put my sleeping bag on the snow whenever wherever and go to sleep.

"We are winding down our firewood operation. This decision was not made lightly. Rising operating costs have made it difficult to operate a kiln-dried firewood business sustainably."
