Thermal Fuse and Whirlpool Dryers Repair or Toss
Comments (3)Thanks When he replaced the thermal fuse 6 months ago he also replaced part of the hose, said the new one was better than what we had and we removed the basket on the outside to let more air in. The bend is a soft one, no hard angles. Nothing is being crushed. The main problem seems to be that the hole in the wall for the vent was too low but since we have an old brick house, we do not want to drill another one. As for the temp control, we got an estimate on the part with our prior dryer, something having to do with temp regulation but it would have been about 280 a few years ago to replace the part, just for the part. The fuses then were around 7. Now for this one they are 17 with tax. This is for the part. DH used to replace the fuses and it was simple but it got tedious after a while. Plus the old dryer would break just as I needed something dried and DH was not home. I have a houseful of people so not sure if that makes a difference. I am tempted to get a speed queen or perhaps look into what they have in laundromats. Perhaps just get something that is not a whirlpool. Our old Kenmore/Whirlpool Washer had a plastic part on the bottom where the wash basket sat. It would break once a year. It was simply a design defect. I bought a TL without an agitator from another brand, problem solved! Although I am sure there will be new problems. Maybe the Whirlpool thermal regulator does not work well with my house?!...See MoreKnob and Tube � are these ganged fuses or fused neutrals?
Comments (4)The last guy couldn't figure it out either, that's why there's a subpanel - he left the old service in place because he was confused to heck. Find the smallest-value fuses you can. Replace all of them with that. 12.5A isn't a normal common value anymore, so I'm going to bet that one is the oldest. You should probably try to find more 12.5's and use them in all of the spaces. The problem you're going to find with your incremental replacement is that all of those circuits are going to tie into each other in ways that make no sense to you. A 'hot' wire is going to go up in the wall in one room but the neutral to the same circuit is going to be going the opposite direction in a totally different room. You're going to run a new circuit to one room and when you're pretty sure you're done with all of the k&t wire that goes to the old circuit you're very sure you followed, you're going to unhook that wire and three things you thought were completely unrelated are going to stop working. Been there. Done that. I enjoy the challenge, because this is a bit of a hobby to me - and the history of it is as interesting to me as the work, but if you're a "normal" person with a real life... I feel for you....See MoreWhat percentage of waste is typical when installing wall to wall?
Comments (4)How many seams are you willing to live with? Lower yardage means more seams. Higher yardage means fewer. Carpet only comes in 12' or 15' widths. If you have wide rooms, look for a carpet that comes in 15' widths. There is an art and a science to a cut chart for carpet. Unless you want a gazillion seams everywhere....See MoreSOS! Plumbing Budget - typical $$ allotment for fixtures and install?
Comments (29)11k for 3.5 bath and kitchen is very low for a high end home. I would suggest going to a Kitchen and Bath store and make preliminary selection of the all the fixtures. you can do it at build.com too, but it is better to see things in person, and try out few things. Doing the selection now does not mean you will cannot change later, all it means that, you now have a realistic idea of how much things cost and if you change something later it can be within similar price range. Doing just allowance without selecting anything is not very realistic (if you have a fixed budget). We met with all the vendors (plumbing, cabinet, lighting) and selected everything prior to our final bid, so the quote our GC used was "actual quote" not just an estimate. We did change few things but it was within budget....See Morebillscha1
