We bought a small (3 light) under-counter set that is plugged into an ordinary outlet and installed the set in our kitchen. We love it...but after a time, it just stopped working. My husband replaced it with a whole new set...and now that one has stopped working as well. We bought a meter to test our outlet, but all we could figure out from that is that the outlet is delivering the right amount of voltage. What are we missing?

Now, I know it depends on alot of factors such as what all is on the propane (in our case, water heater, and heat for house) and how insulated, size of house, and so forth, but we are moving to a house that has propane and that will be our first time ever using propane... Any ideas? If you use propane, how big is your house, what is all on your propane, and about hom much do you spend monthly on it? We are not doing a budget program at this time, but we are going to see how it goes then decide.. thanks

We bought the set in Villedieux many years ago, and they are now starting to signs of wear and I am concerned that the exposed copper on the inside may be harmful and/or start to taint food.

The dogs are medium and large. I'm afraid they will scratch the surface. Is there an indestructable wood or simulated wood product on the market?

Can any DIY buffs help me with this one.
We have had a new roof to our house which is a large semi and has one roof pointing NE and the other south-west (so it gets most of the sun). At about the same time I put some more insulation down (it was cheap in B & Q) which made the insulation over six inches thick.
The insulation was in rolls and in a plastic covering- one orange side and one silver. The silver side is supposed to be upwards.
Since then we have had heavy condensation only on the north east roof not the other.
We also had two windows fitted on the sunny side and so this does heat up the attic. This can really be the only reason why it is warm in the attic- the insulation is too thick for it to be leaking up from the house. Is it simply due to the sun?
Today I have reversed the rolls (orange side up) where sunlight lands to see if it makes any difference.
Has anyone else come across this and if so do you think simply installing blinds on the windows would sort it out.
