Too hot for a Cobra anyways...
Well...... Two 105 degree days with 80% relative humidity kept my robust arse out of the super-heated garage for the weekend. The only pressure testing that went on was blood pressure testing. I did manage to get all my materials together and fine tune the game plan. That pretty much was the extent of it. It looks like it's "to be continued" next weekend, assuming a bit more wrench friendly temps...
I did an air handler change-out in an 168 degree attic Saturday (5 hours worth) and that about did me in for the weekend.... whew

After this weekend a little 2 ton split system heat pump might be in order... It would be around $1500 in materials ... labor's free

Or just a cheap wall unit or floor standing unit, depending on how big your garage is. Well worth it IMHO.

I hated attic jobs. Im not sure what was worse...the heat or the insulation. You can come down out of the attic and cool off...you have to wear the insulation off. That generaly takes about 2 days...lol.
I feel your pain man.
