To answer some of the questions... the new roof it’s not rubber, but we put a more expensive and thicker underlayment(than the ice and shield one). Also, the old gutter had slopes in both directions and 2 spouts, one at each end and from what I remember was a one piece. The new one is one piece...

I think the gutter is 6” wide(more than 20 feet long) and the spout I think is 3x4 because it’s wider than a regular one. We just had the roof and gutter replaced, and no overflowing when we had heavy rain. It might have overflown before(with 2 spouts), butbecause of improper installation. (We...

There is only one spout now, the other one was at the front corner of the garage, coming down the wall next to the tall narrow window, and on the red mulch towards the tree. The roofing guy asked us if we wanted one or 2 spouts, we said one because we didn’t want the risk of the water after a...

I think the gutter is definitely more than 20 feet long, maybe if you look at the photo I posted.

We have a mid century modern quad home with a low pitch roof. To better explain my concern I’ll take a photo of the house tomorrow and post it. We just replaced the roof, which is basically 2 rectangle areas (the smaller area is about 1/3 of the roof surface and the longer area about 2/3. The...

I'll ask my husband to look at all the answers, thank you. What i can tell you so far is that the problem is not the tstat. We have 2 furnaces, so we moved the tstat from furnace1 to furnace2, and it works fine and we put a Nest at furnace1, and we got the same problem. So, the problem is at...

Why is the fan working with the AC but not by itself, or "on" option?

I just noticed the smell a couple of days ago, when we started the AC for the first time since we bought the house. I never noticed any smell in the winter when the heat is on, only now with the AC . My mom said it smells like rubber, i said it smells like something wet or humid!? Any ideas...

There are 4 wires, white, blue, green and red, all conected. White conected at W, blue conected at Y, green conected at G, and red at R. Was the blue suppose to be conected at B? I cannot try the fan with the heat, since the furnace is off, pilot is off too. But it seems the fan works with...

Trying to figure out why the "on option" for fan only on thermostat is not working. We moved in this house in december, so we only used the heating so far. The house is quad with 2 furnaces and 2 ac units. Since is not hot enough for ac i just tried to use the fan only option, so i put the heat...

The house Is a quad. I know we have air vents that go under the family room but no crawl space to get in there. Since the toilet is in the area that hangs about 5 feet outside the family,( there is an air vent next to the toilet!) my hubby thinks the pipe makes a turn from the bathroom floor to...

We just rented our house, after moving in a new one. The roof is about 8, 9 years old, a tearoff; and we changed the guters, added insulation, and vents in that overhang( are they called "sofit vents or gable vents"?). So pretty good condition, never had a problem until a couple of days ago when...

I've had this about 2 weeks ago, when the water was not filing the toilet tank and the shower was not draining(see my previous thread). It was probably a frozen pipe, because it was very cold. When the weather got warm, they both started working, without any problems, thank God. Now it's the...

They are both working fine now, without any help from us. The toilet started working with a flushing noise, then the tank and the bowl filled up with water. We had a little bit of water on the floor that was leaking from the pipe in the back, from a "valve" that my husband will change. About an...

You're right, everything was working until the cold started. It's weird thou that the shower has a draining problem, not runing the water, and the toilet has the problem with water not filling up the tank. Is it posible that they froze like that, the oposite, for one water coming in , for the...

We bought the house about 2 months ago and we are still learning about septic tank and all that. 2 days ago we noticed that after we flushed one of the toilets the tank was not geting any water( but there is some water in the bowl). My hubby checked something at the botom of the tank where the...
