squonk 41,162 #3 Posted October 2, 2021 Looks like one of the many air handling units I had to deal with. When they let me spend money I installed Pre-Vent from Permatron. Screens with quick fasteners on the coils. https://permatron.com/commercial_products/prevent-model-u-and-model-bha# Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ri702bill 8,350 #5 Posted October 2, 2021 Wow!! Don't light a match!!! Reminds me of a Honda 4213 my son got for free years ago from a customer of his. It had a 13 horse 2 cylinder liquid cooled engine - I could not even cut 1/3 acre of 4" tall grass without the alarm light to clean the grille screen coming on! Checked it and sure enough, it was packed with clippings. Overall, it was a great machine - red with silver wheels..... Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

953 nut 55,325 #11 Posted October 3, 2021 (edited) Guess that could have been avoided if you got out there before they went to seed. Now you've seeded next year's crop of milkweed. Edited October 3, 2021 by 953 nut 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is why I wait until the milkweed has gone to seed. want to encourage more to grow next year.. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
