You can have it scoped to see if there are issues. They run a fiber optic camera down the line and look for issues. With old clay pipe you always run the risk of the pipe breaking and with root infiltration at the joints. You might look at having it lined, that would likely be cheaper than...
Cutler Hammer is now Eaton. And I believe these will fit.

You should be able to edit for some time after posting. But you can't post after some amount of time. Maybe an hour?
Edit to add: I hit edit right after posting. Edit is at the bottom left of your post.
My water meter is at the street, and the pipe between my house and the meter is plastic. The plumbing in the house is copper. The builders in my neighborhood went to PEX a few months after my house was built. As to the gas, I can turn the gas off at the meter if there was a problem with the...
Mine was taking forever, and it was the cover over the vent to keep birds out of my vent trapping lint. If the line is long, it could definitely be lint trapped in the length of the piping. For long runs you really want to use rigid pipe, with the joints taped (with foil tape) and no fasteners...
I'm curious about grounding them as well. My wife is a Realtor and often on inspection reports they'll have notes about the gas pipe not being grounded. Mine gas line isn't, house built in 1999. The gas main is some sort of plastic piping. Somewhere below ground it converts to metal piping to...
If the gas line is near your electrical service entrance you can use the electrical system ground rod. Those rods are 6' long, and now code requires two of them separated by six feet and connected together. That was not code when my house was built in 1999, nor was a gas line ground.
I saw it on the internet so it must be true. I've never tried it. But I'd think on a wheelbarrow or hand truck it would be OK. You can buy wheels for both that are essentially foam filled. They aren't solid rubber. https://www.harborfreight.com/13-in-flat-free-tire-with-steel-hub-61606.html
I saw another solution, I wish I had seen before I bought new wheels for a hand truck. You drill two holes in the tire big enough for a tube from a can of Great Stuff to slip into. Two to give the air a place to escape. Then you proceed to fill the tire up with Great Stuff from both holes. I...
Why not use thin-set? No or very little outgassing from a mortar based product. For a backsplash you really don't need to put tile backer board on top of drywall. It isn't going to be getting wet like a shower.
Typically they will put in a control cut to force the cracking into a straight line and largely unnoticeable. Either by striking a joint while the concrete is still plastic, or after it sets by cutting a joint in with a concrete saw. As Steve notes, concrete will crack, it is a matter of how...
My thought as I read your post was an open neutral, not an open ground. Looks like that's what was found. An open ground wouldn't cause a weird voltage reading, but an open neutral would.
Not all GFCI outlets have the line on top and the load on the bottom (with the ground pin down). They...
I would go the route that Bud described in his first reply. It will look cleaner and make the window units look like one unit. Putting in J-channel is going to fill most of the space between the windows. I wouldn't even do that narrow of a piece of siding with fiber cement siding let alone vinyl.
