    Why is water coming out of this pipe from heater/AC?

    I started noticing some water on the floor in the heater room. I saw what appeared to be duct tape wrapped around a pipe with water dripping from it. When I took the tape off this is what I saw. Pictures 1-4.... What is this pipe? Why does it have water in it? And why is water coming out...

I currently have my solar panel mounted to the rear of the shed, and though I am getting about 12.5 volts, I am almost positive it needs to be mounted on the roof, in order to take advantage of the sunlight... SO...

    Caulking around door frame, remove old or caulk over?

    Can honestly say I've never had to re-do caulk on the exterior of anything yet... Well after the front door was installed last week I started looking at around the door and windows and this is what the door looks like. It's about 10 years old I would imagine. Needless to say I would like to...

    Anyone know anything about sealing Flagstone?

    It's been a couple weeks now since we had our front porch done with flagstone. I really like it, but noticed it was sorta hazy. I think from some grout, so I scrubbed it with a bristle broom then power washed it, and that cleaned up the stone quite a bit. The problem we have right now is when...

    How do I repair the tub of my wheelbarrow (cracked)?

    My neighbor gave this to me before they left. I think I threw something in it and it cause a crack in the tub. I'd prefer not to go buy a new tub honestly, as for what I use this for I can't see spending $50 for a new one. I have attached pictures of the crack and wheelbarrow. I went to...

    Recommendations on small electric log splitter?

    I just purchased a x27 splitting axe. Seems to be of decent quality for the money. Depending on how much splitting I'm doing I was looking at a small electric log splitter. 5-7 tons... I don't want a gas one and I like the idea of storing it in the shed and wheeling it out when it's needed...

    Help with deck stair rail connector? Confused on how this works...

    Masonry drill bit/fastener chart or guide?

    Just bought a flag pole that has a bracket. It came with what appears to be blue generic push in/hammer in anchors and screws. The anchors look like what one would use for drywall. I wanted to attach the bracket to the brick on our house. The problem that I am probably reading too much into...

    How do you hang a wind chime from soffit?

    Feel silly for asking but I've never hung anything from soffits before. I bought a wind chime and would like to hang it on our deck. Problem is it's not enclosed so there are no wood beams I can attach it to with a bracket. I know the spot I would like to install it so it won't interfere with...

    I have attached a picture I found online. It's not my garage door and this one is over exaggerated. However the concept is still the same. When I got the high track garage doors they had to push the doors back a little bit so that the handle on the outside would not hit the top part of the...
