Household Hints

Try using a wet wipe. I would first rub the wet wipe over an area, such as the seam allowance, or other place it will not show first, to make sure there is no bad effect of the wipe on the silk.

You have to use a thing called Seal All. It is a very sticky glue that will probably take the smell out. Make sure to rub it on all moving parts of the dryer because they are most likely the source of the odor.

What voltage?

The load is a little over 2kW, so the output needs to be rated no less than 2.5kW continuous (assuming the load is continuous).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The voltage is regulated by the number of field windings versus stator windings, multiplied by the voltage added to the field from a DC source. Phase factors and operating power factors will also affect the total kiloVolt-Ampere output of a generator. this is often factored in for household emergency generators and a generalized rating is given for a 220 volt output. for a 2049 watt load at 220 volts a single phase generator with with an output of 2500 watts or more should be used. The phase factor would be 1:1, power factor negligible (unless hooked to the power grid), and motor(generator) efficiency is about 96% typically. Adjusting for a 25% peak load (when items turn on and off) then:

(2049w/0.96)x1.25 = 2668 watts , a 2500 watt generator will handle it if not all things attached to it start at the same time.

This is equivalent to a 100amp circuit load at 220 volts or 200amps at 110 volts. (circuit breakers), most houses require a 200 or 300 amp service (add up all the circuit breakers in use in the box.)

note: single breakers are typically 110 volt and double breakers are typically 220 volts, when adding up breaker's amperage double the load for double breakers to compare the loading at 110 volts.

example:

Circuit box has 2 double (220v) breakers, stove/oven 30 amp, water heater 45amp, and 12 15 amp single breakers (110v) the total load for the service is:

(30 x 2)+(45 x 2) + (12 x 15) = 330 amps (@110 v) or 165 amp service (@220v)

165 amps x 220 volts = 33000 volt-amperes , because emergency generators are rated at 220 volts the kilowatt output needed is 1.65 x 125% = 206.25 kw @ 220 volts

For industrial generator ratings: volt-amperes = kilowatts x power factor x phase factor (3 phase generation phase factor is 1.732, power factor is adjusted by adjusting the field voltage) , these do not apply with emergency generators. {volts x amperes = watts}

Heating houses is essential to maintain a comfortable and safe living environment, especially in colder climates. Proper heating helps prevent health issues related to cold temperatures and also protects the structural integrity of the building by preventing issues like frozen pipes and mold growth.

To remove red chalk lines from clothes, you can try gently brushing off the excess chalk using a soft brush or cloth. Then, apply a pre-treatment stain remover to the affected area and wash the garment following the care instructions on the label. If the stain persists, you can try using a mixture of ammonia and water or taking the garment to a professional cleaner.

This issue is often caused by a faulty starter or ballast. You can try replacing the starter first as it is the simpler and cheaper fix. If the issue persists, it may be necessary to replace the ballast with a new one. Make sure to turn off the power before attempting any repairs.

When I got mine, the salesman told me I could. You have to use a lot less though. Since there is less water there needs to be less soap. that is one thing about the High efficiency appliances. Other wise you could have a huge bubble room.

A suction cup may stop working due to loss of pressure caused by air seeping in between the cup and the surface it is meant to stick to. Dirt or debris on either the cup or the surface can also prevent a proper seal from forming, leading to reduced suction effectiveness.

To remove hairspray from furniture, mix equal parts vinegar and water in a spray bottle and apply it to the affected area. Gently scrub with a soft cloth or sponge until the hairspray is removed, then wipe clean with a separate damp cloth. Repeat if necessary.

Silk is a natural insulator of heat, meaning it traps heat close to the body and keeps the wearer warm. This is due to its structure which creates pockets of air that act as a barrier against heat loss.

One effective homemade remedy for static cling is to mist a small amount of water onto clothes before putting them in the dryer, which can help reduce static electricity. Another option is to add a ball of aluminum foil in the dryer to eliminate static cling. Additionally, using a humidifier in the room where clothes are stored can help reduce static cling.

A whole house filter is normally a terrible waste of money as why filter water to be used for flushing toilets?

Ans 2 - The first answer does not have relevance to the question.

Your refrigerator has it's own inline filter. -It appears that it's time to change it. -This is generally quite simple and the filter can be bought at any appliance parts store. Be sure to have the make, model and ser # when buying this (or any appliance parts )

Two of the most effective substances and inexpensive ways are lemon juice and ordinary vinegar. Lemon juice is usually the best (and will also leave a lovely smell behind). Stronger pickling vinegar and lime juice are both even more acidic and can be used for really stubborn deposits.

It is not recommended to use a detergent that is several years old and has changed color, as the efficacy of the product may have deteriorated over time. It is best to discard the old detergent and use a new one to ensure optimal cleaning performance and safety for your clothes.

No, grey packing foam sheets do not typically contain sulfur. They are usually made of expanded polystyrene (EPS) or polyethylene foam, which do not contain sulfur in their composition.

bleach doesn't stain brown, something else is going on here, probably calcium lime or rust. get some CLR and go at the stain, should go away. Consider using a bathroom cream cleaner and a kitchen grade abrasive sponge NOT A WIRE WOOL TYPE!. Use teh plastic type and work in small areas to rub in the cream with the abrasive side. Test a small, area to see the effect. It might take several application to lift the stain out

Dirty residue on the bottom of a clothes iron is often caused by a buildup of mineral deposits from the water used in the iron. When the water evaporates, it leaves behind these mineral deposits that can stain clothes. Regularly cleaning your iron and using distilled water can help prevent this buildup.

There is no material that is naturally static resistent. The time for which the static charge is present on the material depends on its Relaxation Time. This is directly proportional to the ratio of dielectric constant and its conductivity. Thus conducting materials have very short relaxation time so we feel no static charge is developed on it. Thus for practical purpose most of the metals are static resistant.

In my opinion it is 'Formil'. Lidl sell it (don't know if you have that there). It works in any wash and it is very cheap and concentrated so it is enviormentaly good and good for the pocket. It costs around 2euro.

To remove lemon juice stains from marble flooring, mix baking soda with water to create a paste. Apply the paste to the stained area and allow it to sit for about 24 hours. Then, wipe it off with a damp cloth and rinse the area with water. Repeat the process if necessary.

Yes, laundry detergent contains various chemicals such as surfactants, enzymes, fragrance, and preservatives. These chemicals work together to help remove dirt and stains from clothing during the washing process. It is important to follow the usage instructions on the detergent packaging to ensure safe and effective cleaning.

According to the Idaho department of environmental quality the yearly use is between 8,500 & 9,500 kWh. Dividing by twelve yields between ~708 and 791kWh per month. CS monitor quotes 888kWh per month electrical use per month so {| |- | References: http://www.deq.idaho.gov/multimedia_assistance/p2/res_energy_home_fs.pdf http://www.csmonitor.com/2005/0616/p13s02-stct.html |}

Soap based cleaners, professional steam cleaning, and professional dry chemical cleaning are the options available for removing Methanol Gel from carpet. The trick is to apply whatever method you choose as soon as you can so that the substance doesn't have time to reach the padding underneath, which is the reason most stains become

permanent.

A mixture of vinegar and water can help remove cloudy residue like soap scum from the bottom of a glass. Simply soak the glass in the mixture for some time before scrubbing it with a sponge or brush to help loosen the residue. Rinse the glass thoroughly with clean water afterwards.
