How do you install a thermostat downstairs when the original one is upstairs?
Snip the wires off close to the subbase so you`ll know which colors went where. Then snake the wire down to the new location and remount & wire it. In some cases it may be easier to run a new wire form the furnace in the basement up to the first floor rather than pull the existing one down from the second floor. Either way the procedure is the same. Just be sure if running a new wire that the new one has the same or more # of conductors in it.

Why is copper more useful than iron for building?
Copper is more malleable and can be formed easier. However, it is much softer than iron and doesn't carry weight well. Copper is more corrosion resistant than iron is and oxidizes very slowly.

No and it is up to you to decide. (You asked two questions in one, so you got two answers in one.)

Why did the women stay upstairs in a house in Nazareth?
They wanted to be there. Note: Upstairs, as is today, is more protected than downstairs where the entrance way of a home is.

Why is upstairs hot in the summer?
Because heat rises and obviously upstairs is higher than downstairs so the heat will rise to upstairs.
Why won't my upstairs AC unit cool?
Because hot air rises. As your A/C unit kicks out cool air, that cool air makes its way downstairs, while the warm air downstairs rises to the upstairs. You could try closing a door at the top of your stairway to prevent the downstairs warm air from making it upstairs. Or try cracking an upstairs window if it is located near the ceiling to let warm air escape outside. The brute force solution is to buy more A/C units. The most efficient solution is to spend more time downstairs than upstairs.
Choosing Between Upstairs and Downstairs Apartments?
Many of the newer apartment complexes are two-story buildings that have first and second floor units. There are some advantages and disadvantages to living either upstairs or downstairs.Easier to Get in and Out of Downstairs ApartmentsDownstairs apartments are ideal if you are not in any condition to climb stairs. It is easier to move in and out of a downstairs apartment. It is also easier to bring groceries and other items into your apartment when you don’t have to climb several stairs to get to your front door. The ease of accessibility makes downstairs apartments perfect for older individuals or people who have children that like to go in and out of the apartment often. Downstairs apartments are also a better choice if you have large furniture that will need to be brought in when you first move into your apartment.No Noise Above You in Upstairs ApartmentsOne of the biggest benefits of having an upstairs apartment is that you will never hear footsteps from your ceiling. Living downstairs can be a bit noisier, especially if the upstairs apartment houses small children who run around a lot. Upstairs apartment living feels more like you are in a private house because the noise from your neighbors is reduced to a minimum. As an upstairs neighbor you may get complaints from the apartment below you if you tend to walk heavily or make a lot of noise that could be carried through their ceiling.The Element of SafetyUpstairs and downstairs apartments each have their own share of security issues. A downstairs apartment can be more open to the parking lot and people who walk through the complex at all hours. When you live downstairs, you may feel like you need to keep your blinds drawn and windows closed more often. Downstairs apartments are easier to get out of if there is any structural damage to the property, however. In the case of severe storms or a fire, downstairs neighbors can leave the building far more quickly than upstairs neighbors. Each apartment has its own unique sense of security. It is up to you to decide where you feel the safest.

Why water comes out slowly from an upstairs tap than a similar tap placed downstairs?
The pressure of water in the pipes is called the 'head of pressure' and it is the difference in level between the water surface height (above sea level) in the nearest reservoir to the height (above sea level) of your tap. This 'head' will be higher for a downstairs tap than an upstairs tap and therefore the pressure and water flow rate upstairs will be less than for downstairs.
At what temperature should you keep your downstairs air to help cool the upstairs or does the downstairs air temperature have any effect on the upstairs if you have two central units?
I have two separate systems, one up and one down. The downstairs unit does nothing to cool the upstairs. It is probably because cold (heavy) air sinks and hot (light) air rises. To have any effect on the upstairs, you would need a very well insulated house with few windows, and you would have to make it extremely cool downstairs. Inversely, you can use your upstairs system to help cool your downstairs, for the reasons explained above. Since hot air rises, your upstairs system has a larger cooling capacity than your downstairs unit to take care of the larger demand.

What would cause a downstairs toilet to start running when an upstairs toilet is flushed both toilets keep running until a faucet or the washing machine is turned on?
the most likely answer to this question is a faulty washer, the reason it keeps running until the washing machine is turned on is cause the pressure is being withdrawn from the toilet. replace the washers to the toilets and monitor. if this fails you may have to consider replacing all the mechinisims inside
