Hello,

I have a deep cycle marine battery hooked up to a back-up sump pump, and the battery doesn't last more than 30 minutes on a full charge. I may be misunderstanding the way it works, but it...

Hi,

I have some old parquet hardwood flooring that has gapped over time. I like the distressed look, but I don't like having to clean between the boards.

Is there a fast setting clear coat...

I do now. Thanks.

Thanks Speedball. That helps..

Yes.. the upstairs bathroom drains into the stack as well.

So I attached a before and after picture. The before is obviously a mess. So I framed a wall and am going to run the drain and water...

Hi,

I have a quick question about venting my kitchen drains. I posted here recently about other plumbing issues that came up as part of my remodel. I am trying hard to wrap my head around the...

This is one of a thousand units in this complex, and about 2/3's of the units have done the same thing. Two weeks ago I had a plumber stop by to give me a bid (on the recommendation of the...

There is no room for the washer box to fit beside the washer. This is old military housing, all concrete, and there is a bathroom directly behind the closet. My only option is to put it behind the...

Thanks Speedball.. That is the box. So from my diagram, does it look like I will need additional venting. Basically all I am doing is raising the drain line to the second floor..

Also, The...

Thanks Mass. So the two valve Oatley box I bought at Home Depot is not recommended? Also, the original 2" line is vented. Does my adding 12" of run require additional venting?

Thanks again..

I am moving my stack-able washer/dryer to a second floor closet and I am wondering if it is OK to put the shut offs/Waste line behind the machine with access from the back (via another closet)?

Can anyone tell me if there are any limitations to where I can place the outlet for a gas range with electronic pilot. I want to place it behind the range.. Does it have to be a certain...

Hello,

I am installing a new bath fan (without light) and I am wondering if it requires a 20amp circuit or is 15amp sufficient? I have read the specs and all they mention is a 110v line.

Hi,

I am new to Access and an hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I have two tables that are inner joined by FIELD_A. Both tables are have the same fields but the data comes from...

Thank you both very much for the response. I switched the white for the black in the switch. I also (looking back not very smart of me) attached the two black wires in the first light to the brass...

I am working on a three family home and need to add outlets to three bedrooms without disrupting too much of the place. The owner of the place replaced the service panels recently.

Hi,

I just finished replacing copper and galv pipes from the street to 2 baths, 2 kitches, etc.. So here is my 2 cents...

The ABS Warning light came on and the ABS does not work. The regular brakes are fine. There is also an odd clicking sound when the car is running and I step on the brake. It sounds like a relay or...

Well... my first reaction is to suggest you get over it. Chances are it won't be the last time you get your heart broken.

But having been there that advice isn't very helpful - actually it...

Not sure if anyone answered this part or not, but Yes, outlets and switches come in 15 and 20 Amps. It is best to keep the amperage consistent (20A breaker 12 g wire 20A outlet). 20A outlets have...

Hi Ballenger,

Gotcha. I was so focused on the panel that I didn't explain the big picture well. I am planning on running a new wire to a new outlet, and leaving the existing 15A alone or using...

I was thinking about where I could add the 20A breaker on the panel. I was planning on running a 12-2 (yellow I think) from the new breaker to the new outlet near the microwave. I was going to use...

OK.. so I reread your post and it sounds like I can take out the 2 30A for the A/C and replace it with a single sized breaker that is really 2 30A, and then put my single pole 20 for the microwave in...

Sorry about the poor quality picture. The panel is circa 1979 so it is the flexible metal cable running from the top of the box to the fixtures. 1&3 is a 50A to the range, 5&7 are a 30A to the Hot...

Thanks for the response. It is a condo so I am guessing its 100 but I will confirm. I have attached a picture of the panel. That may explain things better than I could..

Hi,

I need to run a dedicated 20AMP circuit for my over the range microwave but have a problem. There is no room in the box to add another breaker. On top of it, all of the single pole breaker...

Hi,

Does anyone know if there is a shop that sells Wirsbo/Uponor's AquaPEX to the public in the Seattle area? Thanks

Hello IMAGROWLER. In your answer above you mention Wirsbo's (Uponer's) Aqua-Pex as your preference which is why I am writing. From the research I have done, Wirsbo's (Uponer's) Aqua-Pex seems like...
