I could not find my GFCI outlet, so I purchased a circuit tracker/tracer at H. Freight for $15. I took apart all the outlets that were not working; and ID the LINE wires for each. Replaced the outlets with GFCI outlets for each; and rewired. But still could not find the outlet causing the power outage to several outside and garage outlets! I finally used the tone generator, on each set of wires, and followed them around in the walls, until I had the right set of wires feeding the NEXT outlet in the circuit; and I followed them back, inside the wall, and there it was, hidden behind some extra paneling in the garage left over from a project. I had looked there many times; and missed it every time. My wife had looked there too. Neither of us could see that outlet, in that spot in the garage, and it was the master GFCI outlet for 4 other outside/garage outlets in the circuit, spread all over the house, front & back yard. Easy fix, I could not have found it without the tone generator/signal tracer. Didn't have to call an electrician! Best $15 spent this year! NOTE: Each GFCI outlet added to the circuit, creates dependency on the outlet in front of the next. A circuit diagram for the current owner of the house, helps future owners avoid such nightmares. GFCI on each end of the circuit helps with a trip in the garage when the user is in the back yard.. A breaker finder did not help in this case, because all the outlets I knew of, were powerless. Also attempted to replace the breaker which I was able to ID from labels in the box; but it didn't help, the breaker was ok. It all turned into a process of elimination, but it took 2 full days; had to buy tools, learn how to use them, deduce which outlets were where in the circuit, find the first outlet not served power, and follow it's LINE inputs via the tone generator, to the break in the circuit (a GFCI outlet in the tripped state). NOTE 2: IF you are adding a GFCI to your circuit in order to have more localized Reset and Test buttons close by; know that IF you do not wire the LINE and LOAD wires coming in and out of a GFCI outlet, the outlet will not work; and you must reverse the LINE and LOAD wires to get it working.

Wrong! Just vacuum the baseboards using your dust brush attachment then grab a microfiber towel and use a mixture of hot water and a non-foaming cleaner like pine sol, wet your towel and wipe down the baseboards. You don't want to use dawn, you don't want to leave water on the baseboards, and you don't want to waste your time with those worthless Magic Eraser things.

Don't do this if you have real wood baseboards; you'll wreck the finish.

why is your condensate stubbed so far out the wall?
