Maintenance & Repairs - July 2006

The water pressure in my bathtub faucet has been declining slowly for months, maybe even years. Now, it is at the point where it is only a trickle, for BOTH cold and hot water. I can hardly take a shower, and it takes about an hour to fill the tub at this rate. What can I do before calling a plumber and paying big bucks? The bathroom sink in the same room has excellent pressure, as does the rest of the house. I have the two-handle Hot and Cold faucet (not the single handle). Please help! I am a novice at plumbing. I've never even touched it since this is the first house I have owned. I have copper plumbing in the entire house.

I don't get it... everytime I turn it on, frost will form all over it within an hour... It looks like a huge ice cube then! What's actually happened with my AC? Can I still fix it?

If not, I want to buy a new Air Conditioner (AC)... how do I pick the good one according to its PK or BTU or whatever? What is the specification for Hi-Quality Air Conditioner? Since I totally don't understand about this Air Conditioner stuffs at all... help me, please?!

do you agree with me that you should be reimbursed for the costs of taking the item back for replacement/refund?? Our main TV broke down this morning (2 months old), and as it's too big to take on a bus, Im going to have to arrange transport.

Also, on a smaller scale, my husband bought a PS2 game yesterday, and it doesnt work, so he will be out of pocket to return it - not fair is it??

Barely a trickle of water is coming out of my bathroom sink. The shower and toilet work fine. I checked the knob under the sink and no matter how it's turned, the same little trickle of water comes out. Seems like less water is coming out today than ususal. Any ideas about what's wrong with it?

Our A/C stopped working. At first it sounded like it was trying to start the blower but it wouldn't turn over. We thought the capasitor needed to be replaced so I put a new one in and it sounded even stronger when it wanted to start for a few trys. Now I get no sounds at all when I turn on the unit. The breaker is not tripped.
