We bought a house with a 30ft x 18ft x 4ft above ground pool. When we moved in the water was green. We have gotten that under control and the water looks good now. I take a water sample to the pool store every thursday and all my levels are good except the chlorine. It should be between a 2 and a 4 ours is a 0. We shock the pool every Friday and always have 2 3 inch chlorine tabs in our floating basket. Why are we not able to keep our chlorine levels up? Any suggestions?

I just went outside to water the lawn and noticed that the bottom of the AC unit is wet and is actually growing mildew. The AC unit is in the side of the house sitting on a big square slab of concrete to keep it level. The other AC unit (for the 2nd floor of the house) is dry as can be, but this one is just went. This can't be good? How bad is this? Should I call an HVAC person ASAP?

We are looking at a house that has been lifted up and a basement has been poured underneath. There is a vertical crack that looks slightly like a J, on the north wall. I love the house but don't want to buy it if it is going to be a big headache.

Unit is in ceiling of kitchen in this condo unit. The amount of water that is condensing is just unbelievable. Service man blew the line with nitrogen but water is still collecting in the line. Next suggestion is to install a trap in the line; we noticed while we had the line taken apart at the unit that if I held a piece of paper up to the open coming out of the unit it vacuumed that paper, meaning it held it against the pipe as opposed to blowing it away. IServiceman also suggested to wrap all the duct and the unit itself in insulation. I just dont understand what is causing that amount of water to pool.

Suddenly my laundry smells funny, as if the clothes haven't been washed at all. Some items have a really foul smell; others just smell unwashed. I'm using the same detergent and the same techniques as always.. The only variable is that it has been a very HOT couple of weeks...
