    Frigidaire Dishwasher

    1/4 diameter tube From the Frigidaire Tech Talk for this dishwasher: "As a precaution, a small vent tube connects the seal cavity to the outside of the motor. This tube vents the seal to permt any water to escape should the seal develop a small leak." Also, don't disturb the motor seal as...

    Frigidaire Dishwasher

    Gasket info I have a Spin Tube that leaked after sitting any length of time. I replaced the cork gasket with an original part, and cut new ones from sheet cork. Seemed like a leak would develop sooner or later. I finally got creative with closed foam material and had success. See the attached...

    "Phil's" (KA KDI-58) temperature problem

    "I have seen responses of a 20% increase in monthly electric/gas bills". Not sure about other areas but the change in our utility bill after installing the pump was barely noticeable. I have the timer set for a couple of hours in the morning, and 4 - 5 hours in the evening. We have utility...

    Dryer venting question

    Aluminum is the only way to go "Best of course is the lightweight aluminum smooth tubing, after that is the metallic size foil or plastic venting which you have now". New York State requires metal dryer ductwork with a smoooth interior finish. No plastic is allowed.

    Westinghouse Disposal

    Looks to be newer I checked my literature, and model JC200M should be from 1971, with the "M" signifying the model year. Also, I think the mounting bracket and sink flange are original too, as they look like what's shown in the lit. The ISE wrench threw me at first and I think some parts...

    Frigidaire Flair that didn't have a drawer?!?!?!?

    Twin 30 Flair The first Twin30 ranges had a "Flair" designation on the models that had the lift-up door on the upper oven. You can see the "Flair" label on Repairguy's pic to the right of the door handle. Models with a side swing door did not have that label. The lift up door only lasted a...

    Frigidaire Flair Removal

    Not sure about that I can get my Flair to tip forward by pressing down on the front edge of the burner drawer, and it's screwed to the base cabinet. I don't think I'll attempt standing on it.

    Frigidaire Flair Removal

    Be sure To check inside the cabinet as the installation directions required securing the range to the cabinet. There should be a bolt from underneath in each corner. This keeps the "top-heavy" unit from tipping forward when installed. Also, if you plan to move the range on its back or side, be...
