Sorry I just disappeared a few months, 1 of my houses my mother lived in had a 20amp bleaker fail to trip and it heated the entire service entrance panel and meter box up like a heating eliminate.
I’m in the process of getting her settled into my grow room and I guess I’ll finally get to finish my basement and move everything downstairs.
But I want to try and run the setup one day over the next week or so, I just been in survival mode lately trying not to pull the skin of my head as the hairs been gone
But thank you both for the info, it’s nice to feel like I got a good deal with everything else so inflated these days
Yes it could have, I inherited the house It’s still in probate and with so much going on, I never eben thought about the insurance when my dad died.
So there was none
If the neighbor hadn’t saw it and risk his life spraying the flaming meter with a water hose till emergency services got there and cut the main line at the weather head.
I probably would have lost the home and everything dad left in it, with no insurance
I definitely learned an important lesson with this one

So I’m going to open everything up right now and see if everything I need is here and what condition its all in.
I highly doubt I’ll actually get to run it today but we’ll see how it goes.
I don’t really have a place inside to run it and it’s about 40°f outside today.
I’ve no experience with passive closed loop extraction though I believe I have a good understanding of it.
But I wanted to see what y’all thought.
I think it shouldn’t be an issue
I mean it is just basic thermodynamics isn’t it?
So the cold temperatures outside should help rather then hurt right
That will help with extraction, recovery you’ll be fighting. The temperature differences won’t make much difference for you running the first time.
If you have time, you’ll do fine.
Thermodynamics the butane will chase the cold. As long as you have enough dry ice, you won’t have any issues.
If you need any assistance, I’ll pay attention to my phone.
I do not have any dry ice though I can get some. I was thinking rather then cooling one side I’d heat the other side since it came with
2 heat wraps and a mat.
I don’t know what this is that came out of it, but there was alot if it and it’s super sweet tasting
Was passing one around and thought, “whats that ridiculous sweet taste in my mouth”.
Then noticed the powder every where that came out as I unwrapped it
This 2" section was packed full of powder and had a micro screen on top and a thick porus metal disk on bottom.
Not sure what it is or if i need the 2" section at all when the time comes
It looks and feels like talcum or maybe even corn starch.
Who knows really I’m thinking that section may be a good place for some cotton wading.
Im not tasteing it again but the accidental bit i tasted was super sweet and kinda tropical like pineapple.
Maybe it’s something to add terps or flavor
Maybe check with seller. I could be wrong but i don’t think this has a practical application for the extraction process. Maybe was placed in there for some other reason.
When purchasing it I tried to ask about a few things and the seller didn’t know much about it, said they just buy and resale industrial equipment mostly and this happened to be in a container he bought…
As far as used for extraction, I could be wrong but the fact the column still had weed caked to the sides, and the bottom portion of the power was kinda dirty, and more pasty than the top like as if liquid had flown through it.
And then everything below that section was still caked in concentrates I’ve never thought it could be unrelated to the extraction process…
It’s not alot of effect but it takes a fair bit to get the sections apart, if it wasn’t used for extraction then I’m really puzzled wtf it’s for
Why would someone take it apart and fill it full of powder and put it back together and not even clean it
And it’s clay of some sort, im sure he will let us know when he see this
I read something about helping preserve terps it’s got to do something good for what that section cost new.
Filter media would be trash. Lazy seller from reading further down.
Don’t need to worry about CRC and media for high quality source. If you skip the dry ice, then you would wanna run some to remove the cloro, otherwise, skip it and use the sinister disk for final collection and toss any larger micron Buna filters above with the 150um on column.
My recovery bath water is 110-120F for a subzero collection tank.
The wraps are for the Molecular sieve dryers used for hydrocarbon drying to remove dissolved water from hydrocarbon gases and liquids. The mat is for the vac chamber but I bet it could be used for the heating of recovery cylinder before running that through the mole sieve and into recovery tank.
