I bought a house that was built in 1958 and has a gas furnace that appears to be about three years old (I say 3 yrs because bought house as foreclosure so no one knows exactly--but it looks fairly new everyone says). I tested it and it sounds fine and the inspector before I bought it said it is fine. But the person renting the house from me claims the heater is so loud they cannot sleep. I am trying to figure out what I can do to make the heater quieter short of replacing it, since it is so new. The guy who remodeled the house for me says he also thinks the heater is good and he likes the set up as the heater is centrally located and he says the ducts are unusually large, allowing for quick heat distribution. But I am wondering if you could suggest anything we can do/look at to make the heater/distribution of air quieter? thanks.

Don't know what else to try. Some yellowing still inside too. Everytime I use the microwave now, it still smells like smoke coming out.

Our children have clogged up our toilet. I have tried plunging it, but it isn't unclogging. However, the problem is this... Normally, after time, the water will eventually go down and you can plunge and it will be fine. But right now, that isn't happening. It is staying full and keeps overflowing even though it isn't running. I have to keep emptying it with a bucket. Then it fills up again. Does anyone know how to fix this? I tried to turn the water to the tank off, but it started leaking.

I hope someone can help me!!!

Thanks so much!

God Bless!

I have hail damage and the insurance will be paying for a replacement roof. I am looking for a good roofing contractor in the Franklin/Nashville TN area. Also, if anyone has any insight on such things as drip edges. They seem to rarely be put on new houses yet the shingle manufacturers include them in their installation instructions. Are they really required? Any other gotchas or things to ask people that give bids to do work? Thanks.
