I want to rewire my house. The wiring right now makes no sence and is inefficient. Can I use 10 guage ROMEX wire to rewire the whole house? I am looking at buying a 1000 ft roll of ROMEX wire for this project and would like to use only the 10 gauge ROMEX. Is their a code that says I cannot do that? Most 110 line is either 12 or 14 gauge wire. This is why I am asking.

We have 2 bathrooms in our house and everytime there is two people showering at the same time or if you use it right after someone, hot water only comes on for like 10 mins. Is there switch I can crank up or something? I should mention that, other wise the water temp is fine and lasts a lot longer.

This is a wooden exterior door that doesn't fit very well, so we are losing a lot of heat.

Hi,
I'm painting a ceramic-glazed plate using paints for fabric/ceramic & other surfaces. I wanted to test it...so I rubbed my finger against the paint; nothing happened, so I scratched it gently, and it started flaking off.

The paint instructions say that you have to blow-dry the surface after 24 hrs, which I haven't done as yet. Will that keep it from flaking?

If not, should I use a transparent varnish or lacquer? Can you plz recommend some names?

Also, I plan to use this plate as a serving dish....can food be safely kept on a varnished / lacquered surface or are there some other precautions I need to take?

Thanks.
