I have a small, one bedroom condo, and need to replace my 34 year old natural gas furnace and 19 year old a/c. How much should I expect to pay to have the old stuff taken out, and to have the new stuff installed? Or could I do it myself?

Thanks to HGTV I love the loud mix of colors. My home has dark plum purple on one side and a burnt orange/honey mustard on the opposite side. Everyone is shocked and then say wow that looks great, would never have thought to put those colors together. Bedroom will be wine and possibly a pale military green.

Can you get more freon (may be spelled wrong) put into a deep freezer chest? If so where do you get it and how much does it cost? Can you buy it and do it yourself or do you have to have it professionally done?

I've heard that you can't use bleach because it kills the organisms that are in there to help breakdown the gunk? What do you suggest?

I HAVE A 1" X 4" PIECE OF WOOD SURROUNDING THE DOORWAY ITSELF SO YOU CANNOT SEE THE ACTUAL DOOR JAMB.. i do not need answers that say with a ruler or tape measure. i believe i should measure from the inside to inside however do not know if the door is measured from the 1" side to the other entire side or if i measure it from the 4 inch part to the four inch part. when youre facing the door you see the 1 inch part all around the doorway.when you are standing in the doorway and look to the sides you are viewing the 4 inch part.of the wood.thanks in advance.

I'm going to be moving into a home soon that sits on approx 1 acre of land. About 75% of the land is bushes, brush, grass, and weeds. Can I pay someone to clear it, and who would I call? What sort of service?

Ive got a fire that looks like a real coal fire with an open flue. However when it is windy dirt comes down; and when its cold it creates a draft. How can I block this up yet remove the block when I want to use the fire; without the use of paper.
I would prefer something that looks ok and not a fire hazard. I understand that if this was left blocked if I lit the fire it would more than likely become a health hazzard but it will be removed.

I am looking at memory foam beds and have tried the 5.3 lb foam (store). I find it too 'hard' for me. Neither my husband or I are heavy and I didn't event dent the foam. When I tried out the sleep-number bed, I was about a 45 (which is medium soft) but the reviews weren't that great (lots of problems with air leaks, pumps, etc)

I have a local mattress company that will create any type of mattress I want. I was thinking of getting a 4.0 memory foam with a plush 'regular foam' topper. Will this defeat the purpose of the memory foam? I really don't like the 'flat' feel of the memory foam - I prefer a more cushy feeling.... or do you think going with the 5.3 lb (harder) with the regular foam pillowtop would be better.

Again, I don't think I'll like sleeping directly on the foam. I guess my question is, - will a buffer - such as a 'regular' pillowtop defeat the purpose of the memory foam? From what I gather memory foam is really personal - some people really don't like it -

sounds like someone is hitting the side of the ventilation shaft with a hammer, but it only happens once right when the fan kicks on. If you look at it, it looks fine. I get woke up all night long because my room is in the basement. I need sleep, need to be on time to work, I need help from someone who might have had the same problem, I don't want to lose this job!

There is only about half of a thread showing. It is in the bottom right where the side and bottom meet.
