Wow! THANKS!

Just brought it home today out of storage. Much better to have it in front of me instead of going off of memory. Yes there is this behind the lower drawer: R6R 1125832 A1741V. The A1741V is separate from the first set of numbers. Looking at it, my guess is that it is an ammonia...

This would be the one................ http://galleryplus.ebayimg.com/ws/web/380720070181_1_0_1/1000x1000.jpg

Thanks for the feedback! Unfortunately, there isn't a tag or label anywhere on the exterior of the refrigerator. I am going to have to remove the back panel to see if there is anything there. I will also check out the recommended website.........................

I recently acquired a 1937 Kelvinator refrigerator. It belonged to my grandparents. I have 2 questions: (1) Would this model still use ammonia vs freon for cooling? Or was everything switched to freon by 1937? (2) Where could I locate a repair/parts manual for this? Any help is...

OK. We redid our powder room. All new drywall. We wiped the dust off of the walls prior to priming with towels. Used many towels until no more dust was showing on the walls and the towles were no longer "dusty". I was afraid to use a damp rag over the bare joint compound. Primed the...

I am hanging 1/2" drywall in my 1st floor powder room. Between 2 studs is a forced air duct that goes to the 2nd floor. It sits flush inside the stud wall except toward the bottom where a seam is located to join 2 pieces of ductwork. This seam sits out beyond the studs by approx 1/4" ---- the...

Thanks! Do I need to leave any sort of "expansion joint" for the 3/4" plywood? I will be using only 2 small sections (roughly 2'x3') with a seam down the middle of the room....this will run perpendicular to the 3/8" plywood. I did notice that the 3/8" does not have any expansion joint where...

Thanks! Next question. The 3/8" subfloor that I mentioned goes under the wall plates. On one side of the room, the joist is located back under the wall plate. The next joist out is about 14"- 15" OC. But, from the edge of the bottom wall plate to the joist (the area where the 3/4" plywood...

Remodeling my 1st floor powder room. Gutted everything. The floor is 3/8" plywood subfloor. Wall plates etc built on top of that. Then there is a layer of 3/4" particle board. On top of that was 1/4" plywood underlayment that had the vinyl flooring on. I pulled the underlayment off easily...

Thanks for all of the info! My last question would be how does one drop an electrical line down for outlets and/or switches on the wall? Can I just "carve out" a small section of the foam and run the wire down through it? I shouldn't need to carve out the whole depth of foam, just enough...

I want to insulate my concrete block basement walls with foam board insulation, and use furring strips to install paneling. My question is 1) Iinstall the furring strips 16" on center and insulate between each strip? 2) Insulate the entire wall first, then place the furring strips on...

My gutters are sloping back toward the fascia. I put a level under the gutter and it confirmed this. The fascia, in theory, appears perpendicular to the ground, but in reality it isn't. Placing a level on the fascia board shows the bottom sticking out more than the top. Not a whole lot, but...
