I got lucky this morning. Was relaxing on the couch and the furnace cycled twice so I jumped up and grabbed the fluke. W and C was 24 volts. I looked threw the window and the burner was on. I stuck the fluke in the molex plug(while it was still plugged in) and the two browns got 24 volts. I unplugge...

Not sure if it's a good thing or not but the furnace hasn't turned off and come back on while I'm at home since I picked my fluke up. I did do the test while it was running in it's normal cycle and I got 24.xx volts on them all. I'm going to replace the thermostat with a programable one, more so bec...

Thanks Robert. I don't have a garage so only keep the basic tools here. I will pick up my fluke and test those. For the W to C test it should be running in the second cycle when I test right? That will be fun to try and get in there when it cycles twice since it doesn't do it everytime! Thanks again...

Hi Robert,

When it cycles twice the burner and blower come back on.

The model number is DGAT070BDF

Thanks, Scott

Well I checked today and it is a coleman furnace so maybe I will start a new post in that section?
Thanks for any advice with this

Hi, I believe I have an issue with my furnace. Everyone is sleeping right now so I don't want to make noise opening up the furnace door to see what brand it is so I will check tomorrow. The mobile home is a 2000 so the furnace is roughly 9 years old and it just has onr of the cheap thermostats that ...

I believe that my water heater is working alright but sometimes when we take a couple of showers in a row we will run out of hot water. Think it's just a small heater but wondering if there is anything I should check or do as far as maintenance goes? How often do you replace the elements and thermos...

Thanks Greg. So I should just use some rolls of r19 or something like that? The insulation that is in there now is just laying on top of the belly material so after I cut into the belly material to access the insulation what is the best way to support the insulation till the belly material is back i...

Here is a link to some pics since I can't figure out how to put them on this site.

Well I'm in the middle of a bathroom remodel right now and just cut a 2 ft section of the floor out around where the toilet was that was rotten. The bathroom had a back up and water all over about 2 winters ago. The floor bathroom was cold all winter and the water lines froze a couple of times this ...

I don't believe they sell them at the box stores. The home depot around me doesn't carry many pex supplies, I usually go to menards cause they have a much better selection. I did a google search and you can order the crimp rings online. If you buy the pex to poly adapters I don't see why you would n...

Thanks Greg. Glad I don't have to replace the wall studs.

I am in the process of redoing the master bathroom due to a toilet backup about 2 years ago. I got most of it ripped out and am going to replace the drywall that got wet and moldy. Some of the wall studs and the 1x bottom plate obviously got wet. They don't look moldy like the sheet rock but you can...

Thanks guys. So is it best to just start ripping the drywall out since I can't see if it has mold on it or not? Normal drywall you can see the mold on the paper face but since this has vinyl faced drywall I can't tell if it has mold on it or not. I guess if one peice has mold up 12" it probably...

This is actually my girlfriends trailer and before I moved in with her she had a toilet back up in the winter and had water on the floor. Had to tighten up the shower nozzle the other day and took the access panel off and saw some mold on the bottom 12" or so of the drywall when I took the corn...
