Front End Loader
The front end loader is used most efficiently when it is large amounts of earth.It is also good for smoothing out a lot of earth over a large area.This differs from a back hoe because its advantage is moving earth, not excavating it.
Gypsum Board
Gypsum board used in the ceiling before paint.
Gypsum wall board has replaced the old style of wall finish of gypsum plaster walls. Gypsum wall panels are durable, light weight, inexpensive, highly resistant to fire, easy to install, and they resist the passage of sound. They are made from the mineral gypsum found in nature.
Heat Pump
The evaporator in the attic in the picture is used for taking to compressed cool energy converted outside and truing it into cool air to be pumped through the house. It also contains a heating element to heat the house during winter.
The Compressor I’m sitting on is made to compress the colder outside air to cool the refrigerant liquid to be pumped inside.
Advantages: most efficient an easy to maintain.Disadvantages: leaks in duct work can severely affect productivity.
