Why is my brand new PEX clear tubing turning green near the hot water heater? Tried to clean up this wall of text but got lost in several spelling/grammar errors that made no sense and didn't want to edit for content. Suggest you proofread your answers before submitting. |

what is beeping in my house? The dying battery sound of a smoke alarm or CO detector is not going to be as loud as when it's actually warning you. Check them. |

Will a PEX run freeze if it's in the attic above a foyer? Let me just say this bluntly - some very good friends bought a house with a pipe in the attic. Over Christmas, while they were away, it burst. Their whole house was destroyed. Every wall had to be redone, kitchen, living room where it rained - completely destroyed (incl electronics), all the flooring trashed. They were in a hotel for months. DO NOT run water lines OUT SIDE. EVER. |

Will a PEX run freeze if it's in the attic above a foyer? "What is the best way to keep the pipes from freezing?" - Don't run them through cold space. |

How to deal with abandoned wire? Yes, as long as the wire is deactivated (and follow gregmacs advice on shorting the wire as well), you can safely cover it up. With no connection on either end to electricity, its harmless. |

Can I paint over wallpaper glue? If you paint over the glue your surface will look uneven, like you painted over the glue. |
