Getting rid of smoke smell?

[Getting rid of smoke smell?]

I bought an ozone generator from Amazon to put in a rental house that was left stinking. Amazing how it got rid of the stank. I take my dog with me most of the time and my expedition was getting a dog smell. Put that in for 20 minutes and it’s gone. It was one of my better $75.00 investments

Sorry for your loss 

[Any corvette owners here?]

Had an 82, also still have this 92 with 7k original miles. Never driven in the rain. 
Wanna buy a vette?

Both were black and gold Bandit Trans Ams

 Very easy switching over. I switched my .40 to use px4 mags. I think it was a $10 part.

[HEATING & COOLING EXPERTS - NEW HOT SURFACE IGNITOR STOPPED WORKING?]

Sorry, just saw this thread. Do NOT buy anymore replacements of what you had. Order a couple Honeywell Glowfly universal ignitors.

I started using them 5-6 years before I retired 5 years ago and never had one go bad. 
About $30 on Amazon 

[freezer/fridge in garage strategy for winter]

We had a refrigerator/freezer in our shop for 30 years and never had a problem. Shop temp was kept just above freezing. I did hvac/ refrigeration for 45 years and doubt you will have any problems, if it did shut down it would restart on its own.

[Auction Homes]

Bought 2 short sales and a foreclosure, never wanted to get involved in a live auction pissing contest for something that expensive.

[Brown gunk in washer machine]

Try running some Iron Out through it once in a while to keep it clean.

[Car Towing Question]

Should contact the police right away to find out what’s up.

Had a few wrecks years ago and never had a problem retrieving items from the wreck.

[HVAC and consolidating thermostats question]

Any thermostat that has a jumper between R and RC can be used to control 2 separate systems. Remove the R-RC jumper, heat uses R and W. Air conditioner uses RC , G and Y.

Years ago you needed a special sub base to do this, most newer digital thermostats are set up for it.

The feds were giving big bucks to raise homes, not sure if they are still doing it though. I’m not sure if raising them was mandatory is this area but you definitely won’t be insured if you don’t. Hell I’d demo the house and park a nice mobile where the house was! Not sure the neighbors would be happy . 

Feds were only helping raise houses if it was your primary residence.

I have 2 rental houses in Mystic Island, no federal money for me.

1 house didn’t have flood insurance, other one did but no major damage. Still made good money on insurance. Rates started going up so high I paid off mortgage on house and dropped flood insurance.

both houses are 60’s shore shacks that all the value is in the lagoon front lots.

My son is considering buying a foreclosure with an UST. Following this thread.

Make the bank remove it.

If they want to sell the house they will.

I think it depends what side of RT130 you look.  I honestly haven’t looked too hard yet.  A friend moved from Mount Laurel to Riverton and loves it.

Riverton is probably the only riverfront town I would consider in Burlington Co. Not sure what high school they send to though, that would be a big consideration if you have kids in public school.

[This semi-old house]

Whether you can go tankless depends on size of gas line and having a way to vent the flue.

[How do you ck the furnace igniter?]

Switch it over to a Honeywell glo fly ignitor and you may never have to change it again.
