"It was time to retire our faithful 27-year-old GE 30” cabinet-mounted double oven. We chose a new GE Profile oven with left-hand swing doors. Owner Scott Elliot arrived on-time with his two experienced assistants. Their large trailer contained every tool and lifting aid needed for a complicated install of the 300+ -lb oven. They dealt with two surprises: a protruding electric junction box, way in the back to remove and re-wire; and the top cabinet crossbar required a Sabre-saw trim-up to fit in the new oven. Both expertly done. He took ( and showed us) inside-oven level readings to assure us that multi-layer cakes would come out uniformly level, not slanted. Scott was fastidious about installation of the stainless steel trim pieces, getting them perfectly level and aligned with the perfectly installed oven. Flawless work, done by polite and professional pros!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

A C-wire is typically blue, but don’t rely on colors to find which wire is which when it comes to thermostat wires. The C-wire may also be black, brown, or purple. Instead, if you’re looking for the C-wire, look at the thermostat panel for a wire connecting to “terminal C,” or call in a pro to help you look for a C-wire.

There are a few ways to reduce your electricity bills if you use window AC units to keep cool. Set the unit temperature at least 1 degree higher than it is currently to reduce costs. Keep the unit clean for it to run efficiently. You may want to hire a window AC specialist near you to inspect the unit once a year and keep it in tip-top shape.

Most new homes have coax outlets in every room. A home can require anywhere from one to five outlets based on how many rooms require internet, cable, or satellite access. If you want to mount your TV on a wall as part of a home renovation, consider installing a new outlet to avoid the need for a splitter or long cable that could slow down speeds.

Buying a house with aluminum wiring requires careful consideration due to potential fire risks. Ensure a thorough inspection by a licensed electrician to assess the condition and identify necessary safety upgrades—factor in these additional costs when deciding. While it may not be a total deal-breaker, understanding the risks and required maintenance is necessary. Also, you should consult your insurer about coverage for homes with aluminum wiring to know whether the house is insurable.

Outlets with only two slots have no ground connection. That’s more common on very old outlets, which means it’s more likely the outlet won’t be polarized. You’ll have to closely examine the slots to see if there’s a size difference indicating polarization. Keep in mind outlets this old are usually out of code and should be replaced if you’re doing any electrical work.
