I usually only use cold water to wash clothes. Suddenly, it's barely a trickle, yet the warm and hot settings operate like usual. All other cold faucets in the house are working normally. The hot and cold water valves to the washer are wide open...what gives? Thanks!

It has taken many hours to even get my apartment to cool off a little bit. Yet, it never gets to the desired temperature. Too see if there was any cool air even blowing I checked the huge vent with filter and there is air...but there is no air coming from any of the other vents (in the cieling). I was wondering if anyone could help tell me what to check or do...my maintenence guys for this apartment are gone for the weekend and we are dripping with sweat right now!

Thank you :)

We are moving to a house with a propane heater. My question is: how much will it cost to heat our 2000 square foot home per month, season, etc. I'm also concerned with how far a cf of propane will go. Can I fill up the large tank (about 8 feet long) and expect it to last all winter? Thanks in advance!

A bag of garbage was causing a HUGE fly problem for me, and I missed garbage pick-up day, and I would have had to wait another 5 days for the next pick up. Now I'm not joking around. I wake up in the morning and I'll have 8 or 9 flies to kill. One hour later there is 4 more, and so on and so on. I couldn't believe how many there was and how quickly they showed up. I am assuming it was from my bag of garbage, that has flies sitting all over it constantly. Anyway, I bought some garbage tags, put them on the garbage, and disposed of the garbage in a school's dumpster near my house. Can I get into trouble if someone saw me do this? Even if I meant well and still bought garbage tags?

We have a single-family house with a walk-out flat roof (there's actually a sliding glass door). It has no railing, the roof is currently tar-covered (with some kind of silver patches). I'm getting it ready to sell, and we're considering changing it into a deck. Someone suggested I just paint the roof white and attach a white wrought-iron railing. Is this a good idea? or is there a better way to do this without spending a lot of money?

Is there such thing as too much condensation for the A/C unit. The condensate drain from the unit in the basement started leaking and I have been collecting the condensate in a bucket. I feel like there is too much. I get like 5 gallons or more a day. This seems alot to me. I wonder if this is a sign of a problem with the unit. I thought the evaporation of the condensation across the coil was what created the cooling and worry if the condensation is an issue. I live in NJ and it has been humid but we always seen to get alot of condensation.

Any suggestions?
