    The garage did the sanding and refinishing, and also painted the hull again. There were around 3 bumps on the bottom hull. I will inspect the hull more closely going forward each summer, as these bumps may have been there on the bottom for years.....

    It has a pump on it to pump it into a sink. Can even elevate the pump hose up to 16 feet. Have put it on continuous for now to get it to 50. I do have AC ducts open, but it still only got level to 70. I mainly use AC at night to sleep.

    When is best time to run a dehumidifier?

    I heard that if you run it at late night, it is cheaper in terms of electricitiy. Is this true?? Because of electricity demand is low at night. And how long should it run? My walkout basement is at 65- 70 humidity and I set it to 50 humidity on the guage. It is a 50 pint dehumidifier with a timer.

    Question on fill time for a toilet

    Toilet and water pump working fine. My plumber did say this week the amount of water that leaves the fill tank depends on the model of the toilet. I think more recent toilets flush depend on quick or deep flush. My toilet up in loft is over 30 years old and all water leaves the fill tank even...

    Question on fill time for a toilet

    I will not use the tabs anymore. So my question now is: when one flushes a toilet fast, or slow, should the fill tank empty out completely? I am getting different answers from different people on this. Right now a small flush only takes down the water by 1/3, a full flush will almost empty...

    Question on fill time for a toilet

    Sounds good. I was gone the whole day and just got back and checked the water pump. No dampness or dripping at all, so it did not keep going off while I was away today. If the flapper was bad, wouldn't the water from the tank be lower and drip into the toilet bowl while I am away? The water...

    Question on fill time for a toilet

    That is a possibility. I am not going use the blue tablets anymore. This one is dissolved all the way now. I once had a sticker label on the toilet get stuck on the flapper and that caused the water pump to not shut off.
