In this YouTube video, This is Carpentry shows how to fix hinged doors. Doors do not always stay adequately hung. Start by looking at the whole door and the jams. Determine which sides have wider gaps versus the sides that are too close. Video Source There are two ways to bend a door hinge: the squeeze and the spread. The squeeze will bring the door closer to the hinge jam. The spread will push the door closer to the strike jam. Before doing either method, it’s required to thoroughly examine the door to determine which direction the door will move within the door jams. A more significant gap will require less spreading to achieve the correct spacing versus a narrower one. Spread the hinge by taking a nail set to the center of the hinge, pushing hard against the centerpiece while gently closing the door on it. The combination of these actions spreads the gap a tiny bit. Don’t do this with shiny brass or soft brass hinges to avoid denting. Squeezing the hinge involves taking a crescent wrench to the knuckles of the hinge and bending it in one direction or another. Getting it right can be tricky for the beginner.

Your air conditioner performs a lot of functions. It removes some of the humidity from the room, traps some of the room’s airborne particles, and it cools the room down to a comfortable temperature. There are two coils inside it that have refrigerant fluid inside them that is always flowing. The condenser is the coil that is outside of the room being cooled. Video Source The evaporator is the coil that is in that room. The evaporator is kept at a temperature that is lower than that in the room. The condenser is hotter than the air around it. The refrigerant fluid that runs through the coil in the room will absorb some of the heat that is inside the room. It then takes that heat to the coil that is outside the room. There is a part called the compressor that is a part of this system. It changes the pressure of the fluid inside the system so that the hot temperatures run through the coil and are ejected through the condenser. There is also a fan attached to the condenser that makes the ejection of heat easier. As long as the system is working, it will keep cooling the temperature until it gets to the temperature you have set it on.
