in summer when turning AC on lights go off. Someone told me that I have low voltage wiring, but I had an electrician come over this friday and he said that my voltage wiring is pretty good. So I don't know what the real problem is. He said that I needed to check on the AC, that it might be somenthing wrong with it. I don't know, what's also funny that when lights go off, that MAIN cuircuit braker goes off instead of the actual cuircuit braker where the AC in conected too.
Can someone help me or refer me to someone that is really good to check if posible both Electrical and Force Air person? You know sometimes there are people that can do both things? I am in Chicago, IL.
Thanks :)

A bag of flour busted open and to avoid a mess I rushed it into my kitchen sink. I scopped up as much as I could but a lot did get into the garbage disposal. I washed the rest down with hot water but now it' stopped up. Tried drano and plunger but that didn't work. Disposal operates but just displaces water to the other side of the dual sink. Will a snake work? Can the flour harden into a tough dough and really case a nightmare?

The builder dug up one side under house and added more concrete footers. Everything is cracking again. I understand "settlement" cracks but just one side of the house sinks and makes the foundation and everything crack. He did the repairs about 3 years ago. My question is who is responsible for fixing this now the house is seven years old? I need to know before contacting him. My whole front porch has moved away from the house. It looks awful. If anybody knows how long the builder is responsible or am I????

I am moving in to a new apartment and I am trying to find the best way to clean and sanitize before I move everything in. It is clean I just want to make sure it is sanitized. It seems like there is a powder dust from painting and repairs made.

It seems to me that if Grass only grew up to say 2 inches in height then we could all do away with our lawn mowers!

Hi, my window air conditioner just doesn't seem to be cooling like I know it should be. I recently bought it, within 2 months and at first it wasn't a big deal but it's getting hot now and I want to know if the problem is fixable. The unit is just in my bedroom so it's not meant to cool a lot, small bedroom. The air that comes out of it isn't very cool although it is slightly cooler than what would come from a fan. I've got no idea what the problem is but the things brand new practically. I would have taken it back already but I lost the reciept at some point. Any help would be appreaciated, thanks.
