Well...I tried to fire up the dryer last night to see if the ignitor was glowing, etc, and the dryer fired up no problem. So, it appears it's not a blown fuse. What could cause an intermittent problem like this??? :help:

Yes I did check the venting, thanks for the link!

Hello, I'm hoping for some help diagnosing a problem with our gas dryer! Symptom 1: We first noticed the dryer not heating after doing multiple loads of laundry back to back...i.e. it would do fine with the first load and if we started another load it wouldn't heat for long. If we waited...

Yes that is my plan. The house is holding steady at 64, but won't heat further than that...so I thought it could've been the stat...but I successfully jumped it with no luck. The furnace did not stay running. Still in search of ideas! One other thing I'm going to try is to check the exhaust...

Is there anything else that would help a newb distinguish these wires from the other bundles of wires in the compartment? :rolleyes:

OK...since cleaning the flame sensor...same as before. No change in behavior. Is this worth outright replacing (they're not too expensive from what I can see). I also tried changing the batteries in the stat...no change (figured there wouldn't be but we tried that anyways). Could this be a...

That's where I thought it was...but I wasn't sure. I located it, took it out and cleaned it with light sandpaper, and put it back in. I didn't notice any really significant buildup of crud on there or anything though. I'll post tomorrow morning on how it worked out. Thanks guys!

Sorry for the delayed reply...still behaving the same. Would really love some help! Is this a 80+ or 90+ furnace. 80+ Does it have plastic stacks? no What make and model is it? Mod#: n8mpn075b12a1 If you have a thing that looks like a nail by your burners, this would be a flame rod. They...

Hi all. Our furnace is doing this thing where it'll start up, run for 1 minute, then shut off. Then rinse and repeat. Sometimes it'll get up to the temp set on the stat, sometimes not. This is a forced air gas furnace, new in 2006. If I go downstairs and hit the electric kill switch on the...

That's what I figured. Should the screws be toenailed through a joist and up into the plank flooring? Not sure what kind of subfloor is under the wood but do the screws need to dig into that also? Thanks.

Hi all. I'm covering a large section of old hardwood flooring in my 1960s house with carpet soon (kids and dogs need something softer to run around on). Beforehand though, I really want to take care of some of the nasty squeaks in the floor. Naturally, they're prominant in the areas that are...

OK I'm just about to start the demo on my kitchen. My cabs are extremely old and have no back panels with screws attaching to the studs...they have no backs at all in fact. I looked for screws or nails and don't really see many...if at all. They have been painted like 8 times over so that may...

OK...finally starting on my kitchen remodel!! Here are the things we'll be doing: demo new cabinets/countertops porcelain tile floor moving gas line for range moving plumbing for sink moving electrical for disposal / microwave paint removing soffits/patchwork Since I'm playing...

I like the house but once a couple more years go by and the wife and I have to 2 little ones we're planning on having and they grow up a bit...we'll be WAY to cramped to stay here! :rolleyes:

Bins are a good idea...our mail is always scattered across the table...lol. Thanks for the input peeps. Any other opinions are welcome!

Hello all, I have sort of a weird question about kitchen design... Right now I have a short wall (maybe 50") in my kitchen where there are wall cabinets installed but no base cabinets underneath. The reason for this is that my dishwasher opens along this wall...which kills the space along...

I don't know the brand, but they're full extension glides.

I'm looking at ball bearing 75lb rated, full extension undermount glides with cushion close for all my drawers. I think they're just about the best available?
