Hi Dr Tom
I just happened to hear the compressor shut down & my fridge kicked into auto defrost. The temp shows -6 freezer & 33 fridge ( this is not correct as nothing in the freezer is frozen )....

I do have a 1999 fridgedaire fridge with 2 couplers off the compressor ( picture below ). Could this be used in any way for testing. Sorry just trying to save $$ any way I can.

Thank You

Rob

OK
Thank you very much for your Expert opinion.
I think I have enough info so that the tech can look @ the freon level as the problem.
Again
Thank You

Rob

OK. Thank You
The compressor is warm but not hot. I can hold my hands on it and it is warm but not to hot that I have to pull away.

Thanks
Rob

Sorry
Yes the back cover has been on. I only took it off to clean the condenser coils then put it back on.

Thank you

Very Interesting.
Is there Any way to test this or detect a leak ? Is it worth fixing ? I don't mind doing the leg work if it means saving my fridge.
Thank You

Rob

Thank You
I put the cover back on. Is it OK to leave the cover inside the lower freezer area off. It's the cover that goes over the coil & thermostat inside the freezer. I am trying to keep the...

I was playing around with the mykey settings & now my radio only goes to 45% volume.

Was thinking of using an ABS REDUCING COUPLING 2 X 1 1/2
( shown in pic ) about 1" from wye on 3".Hope that's OK

thanks

Ok that makes sense but where the drain goes into the wye @ the 3" stack the wye is only 1 1/2".Can I reduce from 2" to 1 1/2" @ the wye ?

Again thanks

Hi Mark

You said to run my drain into the 2" wye but the old sink drain is only 1 1/2".Can I reduce the 2" to 1 1/2" @ the wye or should I replace the old wye with a new one ?

Thanks in advance...

Thanks a million Mark

You saved me a pile of money & gained me a pile of experience.

Hi Mark

Don't know if this was forgotten or if you're still busy

Just a friendly reminder

Thanks much

Nice write up vaccarodm:
Was hopeing to get some advice like that.
Big thanks for that

No problem then.Just install it as you installed your hallway.

Thanks Mark

As it turns out I just heard I can use the AAV here so that's what I will do.To be clear do I run a 2" drain pipe?Where would I put the cleanout?I am asuming the AAV is now the vent?(I...

Again thanks Mark

Assuming that code permits the AAV ( I will find out) & all costs aside,what would you recommend.This is why I would like to plumb it myself (cost wouldn't not be the main issue)...

Have you tried Goof off ?
Might work

Hi Just Dahlia
Replace pad & carpet would be my choice.Under pad isn't that expensive & should be replaced @ the same time.

Good luck

Hi pacrat52
I would highly recommend using a plywood called "ulay".It looks just like good one side plywood but the inner layers are solid.That being said luan maybe cheaper & would do just as well...

I would have to agree with EZHangDoor Patty.
Get the pad with the vapor barrier & tape the joints with Tuck tape.This will acually make the floor feel a bit warmer as well.
Best of luck

Hi stewhil
I see no problems with laminate flooring on your landing unless there is something your not telling us.

Let us know
Thanks

EZHangDoor & ballengerb1 are correct.
Just besure not to over tighten the 3" screw or you will pull your door out of wack & or damage your door casing.You can also align your door with the screw if...

We do get a lot of soap suds coming up through the floor drain to the right of the big cleanout if that help at all.

Unfortunately no trap just an elbow... looks like it leads to a big cleanout (shown in pic)
Hope this helps
Thanks
Rob

Opened up the wall & here is 2 pics
Thanks
Rob

Ok thanks I understand.
I did forget to mention one more thing though... the drain for the washer is actually in the between the washer & dryer... Just to be clear should I vent into the 1 1/2"...

Thanks Tom
