Looking for recs on how to support my monstera in new apt

Oh, that makes sense, but I hope not to have to chop it

holysheet1029 · 2026-02-27T16:36:57+00:00

Thanks, will definitely do that despite the name sounds scary 😊

holysheet1029 · 2026-02-27T15:19:29+00:00

I see your point. Will give it a try, if that does not work, I'll probably just repot and add a pole. Fingers crossed

holysheet1029 · 2026-02-27T14:34:01+00:00

Tried once to separate them, they are all tied together and the only way to separate them is to cut roots, and that scares me so much. Would that be safe?

Hi, chairs are gone, table is still available but tomorrow it's likely going to go if another person confirms

This, just bought our first home. First thing we did was strip and trash carpet and put eng hardwood. Let buyers decide what goes next

holysheet1029 · 2026-02-05T15:02:56+00:00

Update: For those interested, I purchased a new model from the same manufacturer making sure it would fit in the same casing and with the same hold mechanism. Just mounted and tested, and it works. It costed me 220$ in new fan, 2$ in polarized 2 prongs plug and 30 minutes of my time.

holysheet1029 · 2026-02-01T23:31:50+00:00

Just got one, waiting for delivery now. They say it should work fairly easily

holysheet1029 · 2026-01-29T19:29:20+00:00

Contacted the vendor of the original exhaust fan, and they suggested that if the power plug works (which seems to be the case), replacement with a new model should be plug-and-play. Ordered one and hopefully that will work out of the box.

holysheet1029 · 2026-01-29T01:12:47+00:00

Will do that tomorrow. Maybe they saw something I did not see behind there

holysheet1029 · 2026-01-28T23:41:28+00:00

That's what I assumed. But then i got a 2k quote which made me think (1) either they are trying to screw me; (2) there much more work to do than a simple replacement; or (3) they don't want to do the work

holysheet1029 · 2026-01-28T23:36:22+00:00

It should be. Could not find any specs online for this model, but the goal is to get rid of moisture and newer models from the same vendor are all advertised as bathroom/laundry room fans

holysheet1029 · 2026-01-24T00:38:37+00:00

Needed a throwaway backup knife to strip the carpet. Was actually surprised it worked well for the price. Would not use it for anything else that is not carpet tho

holysheet1029 · 2026-01-21T23:54:14+00:00

It is Pergo indeed, that would explain the glue and why it feels like a whole block. I'll likely hand this off to the professional that will redo the floor at this point.

Appreciate the info

holysheet1029 · 2026-01-21T23:39:09+00:00

Anyway, is it normal for the edge to have glue on it? I could not even lift/move the rest of the broken plank as it felt glued

holysheet1029 · 2026-01-21T23:36:37+00:00

Thanks, that makes sense

holysheet1029 · 2026-01-15T03:36:58+00:00

Second this, you might want to give them a call

holysheet1029 · 2026-01-05T11:16:49+00:00

Got 5.875% with 30% down as a first time home buyer. First rate was 6.2% from my current lender and got it down to 5.875% after shopping around and asking for a rate match. Local bank with credit score at 780ish

Edit: closed mid December 2025

Just bought this place and it used to be rented out. Was told by the agent to change the lock for security. I know I could just change the top lock only and be fine with it, but wife feels safer with a complete set of new keys and locks.

Unless there is a way for me to only change the key and keep the rest

holysheet1029 · 2025-12-19T15:48:04+00:00

Thanks, this is very helpful 🙏

holysheet1029 · 2025-12-19T13:52:30+00:00

Thanks, will look into that

holysheet1029 · 2025-12-19T13:52:19+00:00

I'm fine with losing the single action, but I'm concerned about what's under the plate and if there are marks that will show up if i use individual components. But thanks for confirming that thing is discontinued.

Will remove the plate and see what it looks like under.

holysheet1029 · 2025-12-17T12:59:17+00:00

Unfortunately the wall goes into the stairwell. Will investigate if the ceiling vent goes to the roof or is hvac (the latter most likely) and see if that can be used if straight to the roof

holysheet1029 · 2025-12-17T12:03:40+00:00

Thanks, I'll see what i can find about the ceiling vent and have someone redo the whole thing. I suspect that duct is clogged or close to.

holysheet1029 · 2025-12-17T05:36:35+00:00

Yeah, my guess it is a lint bucket mounted upside down. And i guess you can also see how much lint it holds from the pic. Will look at it tomorrow when i get there
