I just moved into a new apartment with a central A/C unit that uses a plastic filter measuring 12x21.5. I want to use regular box-type filters like 3M but am unsure what size to use. I bought 12x20 and 12x24 sizes, but neither match the exact size. Should I use the 12x24 size, allowing it to stick out a couple of inches for easier removal, or should I use the slightly undersized 12x20 filter?

I have a Fisher & Paykel top load washer that is 16 years old. It has recently started squeaking when the agitator bowl turns, becoming unbearably noisy. Is there a grease area easy to apply, should it be dismantled and fixed, or should it be thrown out since 16 years is near its age limit? The machine still functions properly otherwise.

I have a Frigidaire double oven (Model PLCF489CCA). The main oven door does not close tightly, and there is a little 'play' in the door when closed. Is this a problem for heat retention, and is there any adjustment that can be made on these hinges?
