GFI for a fuse box...
|
| |
We have a 1969 Fuse box, using 12 gauge copper wire, 100 amp service. Long story short We were told by our home insurance and home inspection people that in Ontario (Canada), there are no concerns with inspected copper wired fuse boxes until they reach 50 years.

What is the purpose of the "lockout timer" in a home heater/ac system?
|
| |
What does the lockout timer do on a 20-year-old Payne home gas-fired heating/ac burner?

Refrigerant pipe wrap

I want to cut some plugs to put under some flashings on a metal roof where the peaks and valleys are open. Then caulk the dickens out of them. Can I use some of that refrigerant pipe wrap?

garage floor paint
|
| |
My garage floor looks so bad, when the dog takes a dump in there, I have to look for it. I want to take a wire wheel and a chisel and take down some blobs of paint and concrete spatter that the genius who built the house left. I then want to paint it. I know there are epoxies and stuff with sprinkles.... more »
