In order to clean the air duct in the house, does an openning ("access window") has to be cut out?
Q. I have a central a/c-heating system with a fan and a heat exchanger in the basement. I'd like to clean the air duct. Some cleaning companies claim it is not possible to clean it well without cutting out an "access window" somewhere in the duct body of the heat exhanger. Other companies say such a window once been cut, never seals. They claim the system can be cleaned well without cutting. Who is right? Thank you

A. The dust and dirt may well fall down into the exchanger, however, it should pass through the vents and fall to the bottom of the unit, then can be accessed from the port at the bottom ( Most have this ) if it doesn't, no biggie...When you fire up the heat, you WILL have a burning smell that will go away in a short time...so NO...I don't think it's needed

Should I attempt to redo the duct work in my basement by myself?
Q. My house is ~75 years old. The ducts are original, likely over-sized (they are HUGE), and the worst part is that I bang my head on them all of the time. Rather than have them running past the front of the cellar stairs, I will re-route them around back so I can stand up straight in my basement. Additionally, the basement is always very warm in the winter and cold in the summer (due to air loss from the ducts, not due to being a basement). Also, the return ducts are nothing more than tin sheets over 2 adjacent floor joists (seems I could do better ducting them properly). So, my question really is, do I need a professional, or can I do a fine job on my own with off-the-shelf duct parts? I don't have access to a break, so I would not be… [cont.]

Getting rid of a dead mouse in duct work?
Q. I entered my bedroom today after a few hours of being out and there was a god awful stench. I discovered a dead mouse in the heating duct, that sort of does and S-bend, then falls directly into the main duct that goes to the furnace. We tried getting the mouse out, but it ended up getting knocked into the main duct.

Ducting on a older home home remodel ... Can you simply block off a duct to a section of the house?
Q. I have a older house w/newer ducting for heat/ac. The ducting was routed under the kitchen counter and there was a section cut out of a cabinet (kickboard) to release the air. I'm curious if I can simply block off the duct work? or should I go thru the hasle of cutting out the new flooring? I've had to pull out all the flooring on 1/2 the kitchen to repair dryrot issues so access is still easy. I dont think having this one register out of the loop would really affect the house much but I guess thats why I'm asking. Should I have the ducting simply blowing into the bottom of the cabinet? and then putting on a grate or something similar on the front kickboard to release pressure?

A. don't worry about the pipe. but disconnect it from the main duct and put a patch over it so it doesn't reduce the efficiency of the rest of the system. if you ever feel like it you can go down there and pull the pipe out or just leave it there if you ever feel like putting it back

How to seal downdraft evaporative cooler to duct?
Q. I have a downdraft swamp cooler that sits on top of the duct that cool air flows into the house. I have recently moved the cooler and the seal was broken between the duct and the cooler. The duct goes up into the bottom of the cooler so it is difficult to access. The whole thing sits on a bracket that is attached to the side of the house.

Also look for "A" Frame homes...these could easily be adapted to run a porch or deck, even on the side. Since you have to build on piers, I would seriously recommend that you run all your ducts underneath the home, including plumbing... then insulate it. If you do this, you can go with a vaulted ceiling all the way up, if you like. Those same stores, by the way, sell the hardware kits to make sliding closet doors. Oh, by the way... if you look for some old home styles, this type of home was often called a "shotgun" house... you could fire a shotgun thru the front door, and not hit anything as the shot exited the back door, hehehe..

Removing Plantar warts with duct tape: does it turn white before it falls off?
Q. I have been keeping duct tape on my plantar wart for about 3 months. Slowly, my body pushed it further and further out, and every six days I would soak it, then scrape off any access w/ a puimice stone. Now, I have been puting salicylic acid on it, then wrapping it with duct tape and allowing it to work all day, until the next morning when I remove the duct tape. Peices of the wart are coming off in chunks, but it's a funky white color. I'm just wondering if I'm getting close to getting rid of this thing, as I have been doing this method forever, it seems.

A. When it turns white, it's dead skin. Keep using the pumice stone to smooth things out. When you get the wart pretty well gone, you'll want to make sure the skin is smooth regularly so that when you're finished it's all smooth. Once you think it's gone, use some of the cracked heal cream after washing and pumicing it so the skin heals and is smooth.

Q. I think my heater control unit is broken. I am able to get the driver's side heat to work by removing the blend door actuator behind the glove box and turning the white plastic knob that it connects to by hand. This works to direct the heat thru the driver's side system but the passenger side is still cold. I can feel the passenger side actuator if I reach up behind the heater unit against the firewall. No way of getting it off without pulling out the dash. From diagrams and the fact that there are 2 actuators, I am guessing that these blend doors are independent. Someone else wrote that they had a shop manually open and close BOTH doors without pulling the dash. How? My guess would be that they drilled some sort of access hole and… [cont.]

usually have to pluck every day?
Q. i'm going on a 2 week trip to alaska in june, and usually i have to pluck my "lady moustache" every day. i think we're going to be camping there so i probably won't have access to normal facilities and i dont know how to work out plucking there. also my mom won't let me buy any of those creams or waxes. is there anything i could do at home, or something quick i could do while I'm there? Does duct tape really work?

Basement bathroom shower vent?
Q. I am adding a bathroom in my basement. It just so happens that my main floor laundry room is just above the to-be bathroom. Can I hook my shower exhaust fan into my dryer ventilation ducts if I install flappers to prevent the dryer from venting into my shower and my shower exhaust from venting into my dryer? The run is about 16 feet. I do not have good access to run another vent.

A. I would definitely try to use an alternate method as the dryer vent tends to get clogged with lint and that would impact your bathroom as well. Also if you were running your dryer and bath vent the pipe would not be large enough to move the proper amount of air. Best bet is find another way out...just my experiance.

I need another vent!!?
Q. Can anyone tell me how to add another AC vent. I have a closet where I keep my cable modem, router and switch and unfortunately it is not air conditioned, I have attic access there and i can see one of those AC boxes with the ducts coming out of it. Can i just add another hole and run some more duct to my attic?

A. Yes you could - better idea would be to run a "cold air return" to that room - suck the hot air back to the AC unit. You can add a vent but with a closed closet, you will not get good airflow, have to keep door open. the negative pressure return would help but again, you need to get "flo" into the closet - or the push /pull will strain the ac pump. adjust door of closet to have larger space on bottom or take door off and cut bottom so there is more air flow. Good luck - careful not to fall through ceiling :) Jewells 29 months and still here
