Penn-Foster -HVAC plate 1 Question.

[Hondatek]

This has to be a typo. I will post the screen shot then feel free to leave comments. I will be E-mailing Penn-Foster shortly. Thank you guy for the help.

 

here is screen shot #1 window S is 6 foot long correct?

[Hondatek]

As you can see from the center line top of bathroom 1 wall to bottom center line wall it's only 5'-5".

The drawing from the school. Comments please.

Correcting to 1st post. It's 6' wide not long

It certainly looks like an error.

 

I wish I could say I was SURPRISED, but I'm not.

Perhaps if the installer has a REALLY BIG hammer, he can get it to fit.

In a case like that I might write what they say they want, then put a BIG footnote indicating quite clearly that there appears to be an OBVIOUS error in the information given. I would also suggest that the erroneous information be corrected, to facilitate the efforts of future users.

I checked the drawing I have access to and the center-to-center wall dimension is 5'-5" therefore a 6'-0" wide window would be out of the question. The student who's drawing I have substituted a 2'-0" wide window.

 

P-F is notorious for having project descriptions that contain erroneous information. I've brought some of these errors to their attention. A few have been corrected while others have not. I have no idea why. Poor quality control is my guess.

Remark I have another one for you. let me post it. OK i have circles the doors on this picture. NO where on the list on post #1 does it state the opening on the door leading to the master bedroom. bed room 1 excise me.

[Hondatek]

look at windows left side of post one. A is a 8' windows and the last one "S" they are calling that Bedroom #1 window is 6' wide. Not the Bathroom where they have it marked as "S" in the drawing.

I'm just getting back from a family emergency on the East Coast. I emailed Penn Foster about the Typo. The correct window size is 3'6". for window S. And both plumbing walls are 6" thick. They got their bathroom numbers confused if I remember right. I'm just getting started on this module. Glad to hear you did well Hondatek!

P-F is well known for being confused.
