I live in a small 2 bedroom apt and my gas bill was 300 for the month... my thermostat is set to 68 degees but only gets to about 66. if i turn it up to 72, it reaches 70. Would a new thermostat do the trick? ive insulated the windows and under the doors too. Please help!!!


Answer
If the thermostat is mechanical then that may very well be part of the problem. I would l suggest replacing the thermostat with a digital (which they wont pay for) then depending on your skill level you need to clean the burners. But it sound like the first problem not getting to the right temp is faulted on the thermostat. Ive seen more crappy apartments thermostats that are bad then I care to remember. Just dont get the stat at wally world they are junk. You need to get one thats for gas electric, dual powered (means it takes batteries and your covered either way for power)
Get a honeywell or white rodgers stat and call it a day. Also, make sure your furnace filter is clean and not plugged up. The apartment placed typically only change them twice a year and use the cheapest filter know to man, the blue or geen mesh ones. Get a pleated one, they sell a three pack lowes or homedepot by natural air for like 9 bucks. they are decent for what they are and a million times better than probably whats in there., LOL

Ceiling Fan Installation where there is no exisiting fixture?




Jessica B


My husband and I would like to install a ceiling fan in our bedroom. Only problem is there is not an existing light fixture in the ceiling. Would this be expensive to have an electrician install all this? Before we set up any estimates I wanted to figure out if it was too expensive for us to consider.


Answer
Installing a ceiling fan is not too difficult, even if you don't have a fixture. A local, residential electrician should be able to take care of the wiring and set up for under $300.00. The will have to fish the wires, install a mounting box and possible a new box for switches to control the fan. I don't know of any way to do it cheaper unless your husband is a real handy man.
