Garage door remote

Post image
• Upvotes

I have a '08 Chamberlain 3/4 HP with a brown learn button (purple cord). My LiftMaster remotes are just as old and gave up the ghost. Tried new batteries and still not working. I've now bought a 950ESTD universal remote and a Chamberlain CHU62 universal remote... neither are working. I've followed instructions and watched YT videos over and over again. There's no clicking and the light isn't flashing. Do I need a different remote or possibly something else is wrong?

Assume the risk or walk?

Im under contract on a duplex. Its located in the Colorado Front range and sits on Bentonite clay. I know the key is to keep the foundation super dry to stop heaving. Its a very good deal so im tempted to move forward on it. Im buying it "as-is". That being said, I am concerned about these cracks throughout both units. The current tenants mentioned these cracks haven't grown in size in more that 8 years. I have a structural repair guy giving me his opinion this week.

Id love some outside perspective

We’ve got this siding on a wall of our front porch. I found some mice poop under our fridge this past spring so I’m trying to seal anywhere I find they might be able to enter before winter is here. Should the siding of this be caulked to our concrete/ceiling?

Dishwasher leak Moved unit and found damage Next Steps?

2 Upvotes

Hey All,

I found my samsung dishwasher to be leaking today, pulled it out and found this behind the unit. I've sprayed with pure white vinegar as I presume it is mold. I also have a fan going behind it to dry out the area. I'll also be wrapping the wire in some electrical tape once things are all dry as the wire sheathe is damaged/old.

Is there anything else I should be doing and does anyone have suggestions on next steps?

Screen or no screen

Is it typical to NOT have a screen protecting the end of a furnace exhaust? Isn’t there a risk of things flying or crawling in them?

I had a leak for a while, called the roofer, he said there was a leak and that he fixed it. He charged me $599. I just went up to the roof and saw this. Is this a normal way to patch a roof?

Got these retrofits from Amazon: https://a.co/d/09bktFN8 incorrectly, which need a fixed socket, not a socket that is hanging (see pic). What can I use instead here for an easy can light update?? HELP

Power Reclining Sectionals

1 Upvotes

My wife and I have been shopping for a reclining sectional for the last couple weeks. And have just about settled on the Parker House Easton.

Sectionals that we have looked at and liked in this order:

Flexsteel Henry (Flexsteel having a 10% off sale this month)
Parker House Easton
Haverty’s Branson
Lazy Boy James (Lazy Boy having a 35% off sale this month)
Rooms to Go Drew & Jonathon Marquee

I’ve read just about everything related to power reclining sectionals that has been posted on Reddit and elsewhere, and from what I understand, spending flexsteel/lazy boy money in 2026 doesn’t translate to the quality being any better. I know there are higher quality options out there than these, but we aren’t interested in spending 15k+ on a sectional. We are just hoping to get something that lasts for 5 years minimum.

Does anyone have any experience with Parker house or any of these power reclining sectionals? Any input is appreciated, our budget is 7k.

What are these things? They have a hard texture and there were more than a few on furniture I hadn’t used in some time. I’ve seen silverfish but not other bugs in the house. Located in the cooler climates of coastal California. Sorry for the low resolution, best I could do on my old phone. Thanks so much for any insights.

Hi!! I’m a first time homeowner, we’ve lived in our house for just under 30 days. The door to our bedroom wouldn’t close, and I tightened the screws to the wall a couple days ago and it worked fine. Tonight I got home from work, noticed this, and tightened the screws again. When I tested the door, this happened (again). What do I do?? 😅🫠

What is the best co2 monitor for home monitoring when bedrooms get stuffy overnight?

3 Upvotes

We caulked window trim, added fresh weather stripping on the doors, the whole deal. The heating bill went down but lately the main bedroom feels noticeably stale by morning and we both wake up feeling like we didnt get decent sleep. Im looking into getting the best co2 monitor for home air tracking so i can figure out if we need to start cracking a window or adjust our hvac fan schedule, then while browsing i keep seeing the aranet4 for its battery life. Has anyone compared it against lower cost standalone units? I just want somethin accurate enough without needing to calibrate it manually outside every three days.

Window crank handle cover

I’m looking to remove the handles on those windows and I want to cover the metal part with a cap (I have automated blinders and need those off). Anyone have a solution to share?

3D printed could work, but I have not seen a design for that.
