We just recently purchased my grandparents house and there is an old claw foot tub. But the finish is worn off, therefore a little scratchy on the backside when you take a bath.

We have a 3 year old Lennox Furnace and returned home to find the house very, very cold.

We turned the furnace main switch off then on, reset house circuit breakers, and pattern keeps repeating.

Furnace starts and can feel some hot air out of vents, stays on about two minutes, then shuts down. A while later, it may kick in again and repeat same 2 minute on cycle.

What's going on?

Theres nowhere to aim gutters, the houses were built too close together 'back in the day.' The previous owners illegally routed a downspout into the sewer line, going straight through the foundation. Its now leaking inside the wall. I don't have much money to pay the pros and there is not a whole bunch of options here, it's driving me crazy. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I have Robert H Peterson's vented gas log with electric start (no pilot light). When I start it, it start clicking and the flame is burning but it does not start the fire. Followed the instructions of waiting for few minutes before restarting. Does anyone have any idea what could be wrong. Called the support and replace the ignition assembly too without any result.

Our dryer comes on, spins, and the outside of the dryer feels hot. But the clothes are not drying. You can feel the heat when you open the dryer though. I moved the dryer recently because I was cleaning around it. You think I knocked something loose? Everything looks hooked up in the back, so Is it coming from the inside? And is it fixable? Thanks a bunch!

This is a deep freezer compressor. The specs on the compressor say that they want R134a@95psi on the low side, but with standard auto R134a cans I am only able to get about 70psi, which does not chill enough. I am assuming this is because the standard auto cans are only 70psi? Also, what is the best way to get the compressor to 95psi?

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!!

So, we got a whole house humidifier and was told we do not need to clean/maintain it except once a year by calling our heating company and they will clean it and replace the filter. All we have to do is shut it off once we shut off the furnace. But in the humidifers pamplhet it says it should be cleaned every 1-3 months? Everyone i have talked to just has their heating company take care of it once a year and I have been told by two different HVAC companies the same thing. So, now i am confused . What do you do?

We hired a contractor to pour concrete in our basement to level the floor this week, he finished the job okay. However we found out the next morning the bathtub in the basement is blocked. The contractor said they used the bathtub to get water but he claims no concrete should have fallen into the drain. I found lots of sand on bathroom floor and in the bathtub as well..

My husband and I tried draino but it doesn't work... Now i'm desperate...We just spent a fortune to fix the unlevelled basement, and now I need to rip off the bathtub?? What do I do? Is there anything I can buy to desolve the sand / concrete??

Please help me.... thanks a million...

I have drafty windows but do not want to replace all of them. Outside of my window is a tract that holds a screen. the screens are held in place by a couple of spring loaded pins. Do they make a window that would fit into the screen tract for winter use? I think this would look better than attaching plastic sheeting as my neighbor does.

I live in Trenton, GA and back in Sept. I filled our 250 gallon tank up for $1.75 a gallon. I called yesterday and the lady told me propane was $2.20 a gallon. And that is with a 150 gallon purchase.

Our home has a propane furnace. It heats up the home quick. We also have a wall propane heater. We try not to run the big unit because it will use up the propane a lot faster. We have to fill up about every 2 months. This is expensive. If propane prices continue to rise, then I don't now if we are going to be able to make it.

What is the government's excuse for climbing propane prices? How does the $2.20 per gallon of propane in my area compare to other areas across the US?

We have just moved into a new house and realised the water in the area is very hard and contains a lot of limescale. Over time this will affect most of our new appliances. We have seen various methods to combat this, including a water softner device that connects to the main water supply, what do people recommend?
