I bought a new 40 gallon, natural gas, hot water heater today. I had to lay it on its side to get it home. The people at the store said it's best not to, but if I do then I must stand it back upright for the same amount of time it was on its side before I install it.

Our bedroom door is on the second floor. The door is facing the top of the stairs. The stairs' shape is an L. From the bedroom door, it's straight going down to a landing, turn right and it's the bottom of the stairs. My question is what are the implications of that situation and how can I correct it? Thank you!

My washing machine just leaked. It totally flooded my flat, and my downstairs neighbour who is seriously pi**ed off at me! I've managed to soak up the majority of the water, using every towel and sheet i own. The drum is still full of water and without opening the door and letting it all spill out i really don't have a clue how to get it out. Please help! It's 2am on a Sunday morning and a plumber is going to cost an absolute fortune!!!

I have developed severe skin allergies and have become a clean freak. And I noticed immediately that my vaccuum does not keep suction for more than a couple of seconds, and the filter clogs. Would it benefit to have a dyson? I saw a tv special on them today and was amazed by what I saw...but I want to know what you think!

How hard will it be to strip the paint and stain the entire bedroom set. Is it worth it to send the set out to be stripped and stained or is this something easy enought to do? The bedroom set is a great size for a nursery and we really love the craftsmanship of the set. How difficult will it be to strip the intricately carved parts of the dresser? Any suggestions on what to use? Thank you!

I recently WAY OVER sprayed for bugs using a product I *thought* I was familiar with-basically, I didn't read the directions. Dumb, I know. Anyway, the good news is that there are absolutely NO BUGS! It's a nuclear winter for those lil critters! However, I am a little concerned about lingering residue, etc. Is the most effective way to address this just to wipe surfaces with mild soap and water solution? Or just water? How worried do I need to be about this? (I do not have pets or kids and no children live in this entire apartment complex.)
