I have used reolink for several places and am happy with it.

Washer Specialties?

They are a plumbing and hvac supply in Wichita.  I don't believe they do installations, but they will sell the equipment if you have the necessary license.  They are a great resource for parts.  

Sounds like the Rheem is the way to go since it gives him the room he needs and is the same width.  As long as the airflow matches the coil you should be just fine.

I bought one in May on the courthouse steps, was advertised on auction.com but conducted by county sheriff.  County tax records stated it was a 2 bedroom, so that's what auction.com stated as well.  However, they've never been in the house, and I had no way of getting in and finding out for myself until afterwards.  Fortunately I got it cheap enough and the condition wasn't too bad so I'll be ok on it, just one of the risks of buying at the sheriff sale.

I've insured a few properties through Fair Plan, I think availability varies by state.  It's for properties/owners that have been turned down by other insurers.  I've been turned down for asbestos siding and floor furnaces, and been able to insure with fair plan through my insurance broker.

Thanks, Joe. Ever done anything w/ Fair Plan specifically with knob and tube?

No but I get the impression they will cover it if you've been turned down in the open market.

They want to know how much they walk away from closing with.

I've had several houses that after sitting vacant for a period of time, the sewer will back up.  Seems the spots that could potentially back up go ahead and do that when the line gets used again.  I've had enough trouble with it that I just go ahead and have those snaked if the toilet is pulled during rehab, or keep a real close eye on it for a while.
