Replacing a Doorbell - "Ding dong." If your doorbell is sounding a little sick these days ... or, worse, not sounding at all ... the simplest solution may be to install an entirely new unit. Here's how to install it.
Installing a Programmable Thermostat -
Troubleshooting Your Thermostat -
Installing a Cable TV Jack - You've probably seen cable-TV installations where the bare coaxial cable simply enters a room via a crude hole drilled through the floor or a baseboard (maybe you've seen them in your own house!).
Installing a Ceiling Fan - A ceiling fan will do more than just give your air conditioner a break in the heat of summer - it'll also take a load off your furnace in winter by recirculating heated air that rises to the ceiling.
Track Lighting - A track system is the most versatile of all ceiling fixtures.
Installing Low-Voltage Lighting - Low-voltage landscape lights � those that are 12-volt AC � literally are a snap to install. The lighting parts snap together, and the connectors snap into place. The cable looks like a lamp cord.
Installing a New GFCI - What's a GFCI and why do you need one?
Replacing a Wall Switch - A standard wall switch � technically, a single-pole switch � is a snap to replace.
Installing a Three-Way Switch - Three-way switches can be a little confusing because, unlike a standard switch, they have three screw terminals and do not have ON-OFF markings.
Installing a Dimmer Switch - A dimmer switch is one of life's little conveniences that, once installed, you wonder how you ever got along without!
Installing Specialty Switches - If you thought dimmers were about as fancy as switches could get, think again.
Testing a Receptacle for Power - There are lots of times when you'll want to test a receptacle for power --sometimes to make sure that there's really power present, but more often to make sure that there's not!
Testing a Light Socket - A light's out and you've already determined that a burned-out bulb isn't the culprit.
Why Wire Well? - Even if you don't operate a business from your home, plan some space for a computer center.
Choosing Receptacles - In most homes, there are a wide variety of receptacle types.
Selecting Specialty Switches - Of the many available switches built to suit special needs, the ones discussed here are some of the most common.
