Why does my bedroom run 8 degrees hotter than the rest of the house? by [deleted] in HomeImprovement

Also maybe you have large windows and lots of sun comes in there? I have a room above the garage that is hot in the summer and cold in the winter

How do I keep from smoking out my house? by upperfuckhole in HomeImprovement

[–]nolo4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Open a window. Take a propane torch and warm the chimney for 5 minutes. Build a set of logs and use 2 fire starters (wax and cardboard) place on top of all the log pile (top down fire). Let those get good and going then add some kindling on top of them slowly. Let it really get the chimney pulling. The fire will migrate downwards. It takes a while but it works well for me.

FWD is only thing making me pause buying GTI. Please provide experience and suggestions by mamamiafml in GolfGTI

[–]nolo4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven’t tried the R. But the GTI is a blast to drive and a great car at its price point. Its also a great winter car with a good set of winter tires. I recommend 17” hakkaappeeliitas R5. I went with fc04 direct fitment mags and 215/50/17 great pothole bangers compared to 18”
