Can you use two thermostats on one oil furnace?
The thermostat that is set higher will turn the system on if two thermostats are wired in parallel. You can use any number of thermostats on the system. What you probably want to get is a zone control system. Each room gets heat regulated as desired because the controller manages not only when the furnace turns on but also when dampers open to deliver heated air to the various rooms that are being controlled.

Labor is usually the major cost of installing trim..baseboard and chair rails are pretty quick and easy, crown molding is a bit more difficult. Painting and finishing often takes longer than installation.

Which paint is better sherwin Williams or Benjamin Moore?
It depends who's buying...
Benjamin Moore's primary customers are the RESIDENTIAL DIY's. To these customers, the main criteria in defining a "good paint" is based on the ease of application (how forgiving is the paint) and scrubability (washable as it is most often referred as... although they are 2 separate things... see below).
Sherwin Williams's primary customers are the CONTRACTORS. To these customers, the main criteria in defining a "good paint" is based on the coverage qualities of the paint and bond (how well the paint sticks to the surface being painted - the substrate)
The following are some of only a few different qualities you can look for in paint. And just like almost every other product out there, none has it all. So it's important to know what your needs are and ask a painting professional (someone who is neutral) which one can best serve your needs.
Different qualities of paint:
- Ease of application (the paint levels off easily to remove any roller marks or brush strokes)
- Good Coverage (ability to cover in less coats)
- Washability (the paint film repells the dirt from penetrating too deep making it possible to remove with water and a sponge)
- Scrubability (ability to scrub the surface whether it's by rubbing against it or removing tougher stains)
- Spread rate (ability to cover more area with less paint)
- Bondability (ability to hold on to a substrate better)
- Anti Mildew (ability to prevent to formation of mold)
- etc...

Will Wallpaper sizing work hanging wallpaper over wallpaper?
Will Wallpaper sizing work hanging wallpaper over wallpaper
Yes, but it has been my experience that you will never be fully happy with the results. I always remove old wallpaper prior to changing to a different wall-covering. It just makes for a better finished job. Note: If you decide to remove the old wallpaper I use white vinegar and warm water applying several coats, after removing as much of the "easily" removed loose paper.
What colors go with black and pink?
Black and pink, as you may have noticed, are natural colours that easily go together themselves. Without the help or need of other colours matching with these colours, it will go great together. If you want a colour going with PINK, there's green and yellow and purple and orange and BLACK and red, and maybe even grey if you like those old, dull colours.
With black, you can fit in almost anything towards the matching point of this colour - there's red, which matches up with black to make an outstanding popstar colour which all the celebs love. There's pink, yellow, white (if you like the old-fashioned stuff), green, brown, lilac, indigo, violet...all the colours you can think of probably goes with black.
Where can you find a website for decorating your home?
There are many, many websites that will help you decorate your home. Almost every interior decorator has a blog, or a homepage etc. Personally, I really like the way that the television networks like hgtv and TLC handle this. (Shameless plug in 10, 9, 8, 7.....just kidding. I am not trying to sell you anything). I work for a company that sells furniture, rugs, and home decor, and i really like looking through their pictures for good ideas. Also use their magazines or catalogues for the room scenes, or look in the decorating library that is at the bottom of the main page for some insightful ideas. Also, paint websites and catalogues have great pictures too, as well as a good description of how to choose the right paint colors for the effect you would like. If you research design ideas on line, you are sure to get some great results.
