  1. Great comment about the LP dust, when we use the LP the dust plumes aren't nearly as big. Maybe half the size, I need to take some photos of the two for comparison. I think that because LP is wood the dust and chips fall to the ground faster due to the weight of the cutting remains. At least that is what the crews that work for other companies are telling me, (I need to take some photos). We will see... We tried the sheers and the quality of the cut is not nearly as clean and is a pain when it comes to ripping a few inches off of a plank that is 12' long. Now, would not a wet saw be nice for JH?
  2. Thanks everyone and I appreciate the replies. Here in my neck of the woods it can be challenging to get subs to use proper ventilation and filtering procedures in 95 degrees and 95% relative humidity. We are looking at LP SmartSide as a possible safer option. Click to Enlarge 294.94 KB
  3. Hi! I am new to this forum and my name is Greg in Houston Texas. I am curious to find out what some of your crews are doing when it comes to the dust when installing HardiePlank Siding? Some have told me that they feel heaviness in their chest in the am when they wake up after a long day of Hardie installation often telling me that they have been wearing a dust mask. Any thoughts??
