Terms of use
Last updated October 6, 2026
By using Household Atlas you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
Information only
Our guides and calculators provide general information about household appliances and systems. They are not a substitute for the manufacturer’s instructions for your specific equipment, local codes, or an assessment by a qualified, licensed professional. Calculator results are estimates.
Safety
Work involving electricity, gas, refrigerants, combustion appliances or structural elements can cause injury, death, fire or property damage. Always turn off power or fuel before inspecting equipment, follow the manufacturer’s instructions, and hire a licensed professional for work you are not qualified to do or that local law reserves for licensed trades. If you smell gas, leave the building and call your gas utility or 911 from outside.
