Q & A:
- Noisy Pipes: Plumbing noises shake the house and faucets spit when Jason fills the tub! It could be excessively high water pressure, but he should start by checking for bad washers.
- Bath Remodel: Christine needs ideas for a window above the tub. We suggest options for windows that are designed for bathroom privacy but still let in the light.

- HVAC: The bedroom adjoining the garage gets very warm. Jeff gets tips for installing a smart thermostat with sensors to adjust the temperature in different rooms.
