    Carrier 58SS replacement?

    We have an old Carrier 58SS in our apartment and the pan below the A-coil has split leaking water. The unit is very old so we'd like to replace it. Would a Carrier 58CVA be a suitable replacement? The unit is contained in a utility closet beside the water heater so dimensions are important...

    Convert dryer vent to range hood vent?

    I recently replaced my gas dryer with an electric condensing washer/dryer combo unit so I have an external vent (3.5" vertical) in my apartment that I no longer use. Assuming it was appropriately cleaned could I use it to vent fumes from a range hood? I believe the current recirculating...

    220v dryer out conversion to 110v?

    Hi, I have recently replaced my old electric Washer/Dryer combo that ran off a dedicated 200v circuit with a 2 pole 30amp breaker and single NEMA 14-30R outlet to a new energy efficient LG condensing Washer/Dryer unit that requires a 110v 12amps through a regular NEMA 5-15R outlet and I would...

    Toto mods

    There seems to be a good 2 or 3 inches of headroom inside the tank of my Toto Drake, has anyone ever modified the system to provide a larger more powerful flush? Not sure if the valve can be screwed up much higher. If that were possible or it could be replaced with a standard mechanism and...

    Blocked sewage pipe (upstairs bathroom)

    The day before yesterday the shower in one of my upstairs bathrooms stopped draining and the plunger seemed to have little effect so we called out a local plumber. He tried using a powered drum auger to remove any blockage. He put in what looked like 15 to 20 feet of wire without much success...
