    In my bathroom, the same electrical switch simultaneously turns on the vanity lights and the little fan in the ceiling. I'd like to rewire it so that each unit has its own switch - one that turns on the lights, and a second switch to turn on the fan. How do I decouple this single switch into two switches? Links and/or diagrams are much appreciated :) Thanks!
  • How do i wire my new thermostat? Ritetemp 6022?

    I'm replacing an old round thermostat with a new ritetemp 6022 digital one. The old wires all matched the slots that their letters were on.. R= Red, W= White, G=Green, B=Blue, and Y=Yellow. 1 thing that was odd, is that on the roof, the white and yellow are connected together. The Red wire deffinately has 24v on it. So, I'm not sure if I set this up for "4 wire Heat/cool" or for "4 wire heat pump w/o aux" So, I took a lot of pictures, and I'm hopefull that someone can tell me exactly. My guess is Red goes to RH, G to G, Y to Y, just not sure if that White to W considering the white and yellow are connected anyways, and then the Blue wire to B? says its for a change over valve? not sure if i even have that. Thanks for the help. Heres the link to the pictures http://picasaweb.google.com/damien59/Ritetemp6022?authkey=Gv1sRgCPyTypevqP6OdA&feat=directlink

    Additional Details

    We catch squirrels in out back yeard by trapping them in a cage and set them free in an open space a few miles away. But we notice the boy squirrels are almost always trying to get out while the girls just sit there quietly in the cage. Why is that ? LOL its really easy to tell on a squirrel. We think the boys are trying to solve the problem while the girls just sit there and cry.
