I recently rented an apartment and have asked them to check this out a couple of times to no avail. Everytime I fill up the tub, theres sand in the bottom of it. What would cause this? Also, is this a health hazzard? What can I do about the complex not fixing it?

We keep having bugs coming up from our shower and sink lines. I've poured bleach down there and it didn't stop them. They keep coming up and its gross. How can I stop them from coming through the pipes?

So when I watch it flush with the tank lid off, the chain lifts the stopper from the tank and the stopper stays lifted. The chain is loose in there, and jiggling the handle does nothing. I have to reach in there and tap the lid shut, and my problems are gone. How can I make it shut on its own? There is no obvious way to remove it, the stopper has two "arms" that are attached to 2 "pegs" that stick out of the side of the tube the water runs into.

I just unrolled the rug (bought Overstock.com) and the edges are curled. Especially the edge on the inside of the roll.

I am trying to get more information about the internals of a backup
generator. Specifically those in the 3kw to 6kw range driven by gas
engines. I have questions like:

(1) What protections do they have against overload? I have been using DC power supplies for 35 years and they all have current foldback that comes into effect when overloaded. Do any generator manufacturers include a similar function?

(2) If the unit has the 240 volt plug, assuming the two hot wires, the
neutral and the ground, how well do they handle load unbalance? For example, if all the load is on one of the legs will that cause any problem.

(3) How do they implement the effect of a center tapped transformer so they "look like" the incoming power line? I have looked over a few in stores and I don't see any transformer.

(4) How do they control the amplitude and frequency of the output?

(5) How close is the output to a sine wave?

Thanks in Advance,

Pete

I want to increase the height of my fence by putting up a trellis. Trouble is, the posts are concrete. Anyone know the best way to do this? Can I just drill into concrete posts and use heavy duty plugs, or will the concrete crumble?

Thanks
