Reply to comment by MyMomSaysIAmCool in How do non electric heat operated fans work? by ranman12953

The Amish people who built the home next door to my in-laws in Iowa were able to use power tools as long as they were pneumatic. Didn't write make sense to me, but whatever. They also had a non Amish guy drive them to and from the work site in a van.

Its because grid electricity makes you beholden to the electric company....generators are usually ok for work use or pnumatic.
