    MH blowing timers

    Do you have seperate ballasts? If so try individual timers. Although you shouldn't be blowing a singe timer as the 175mh ballast is I believe a 1.7amp draw. You could try the heavy duty timer that HD sells. I also have seen people having trouble with GFI and mh's.

    JBJ fans and how to replace them

    I had a jbj pc hood. It is very easy to replace the fans. Radio shack sells the exact same fan. It is $9.99 each. Just snip the old wires and solder the new ones and snap back in place.

    Tap Water Filter for sale

    That, is rude. You could make a recommendation of what is the limitations of the unit and what are other available units out on the market but that blank statement may have ruined a sale of a basic unit in the for sale forum, not the for sale and any persons comments section.
