Heavy duty drain opener chemicals do not work, nor does plunging. The
trap under the sink has nothing to unscrew to let me get in and clear
it out.
Should I buy an auger and go in through the top of the sink's drain?

My wife and I are interested in installing a Lopi wood burning insert
in our house (The Revere).  We live in a bungalow, about 1700 square
feet.  Would it be prudent or even necessary to buy the blower

I have a situation where there seems to be air in my cold water pipes.
When I get up in the morning and flush the toilet, or run the cold
water in the sink, the water burps and carries on.  After about a
toilet refill's worth of water, the situation goes away until the next

I frequently have problems with smoke backing into the room when using my
fireplace. At times it backs up when I first start a fire. Other times it
