How to Replace a Doorbell | Ask This Old House
Показать описание
In this video, This Old House master electrician Heath Eastman helps a homeowner solve an old problem: locating and replacing doorbell components and wiring.
Master electrician Heath Eastman takes us on a house call to solve a homeowner’s doorbell problem. After moving in, the homeowner attempted to fix an old doorbell, only to have it crumble into pieces. Heath uses his expertise to track down the existing wiring and transformer first before running new wiring and installing a new doorbell, chime, and transformer.
Doorbell Replacements Can Be Complicated
On the surface, replacing a doorbell might seem like a simple proposition. However, locating all of the components (inside the wall and out) can be more complicated than that. Here are the components to find:
The transformer: This is a square block typically located near the electrical panel, in a closet near the front door, or in the basement mounted to a joist under the front door.
The chime: This is the box that makes noise when someone presses the doorbell. It’s usually located above the front door.
The doorbell: Mounted outside the front door.
Once you locate these items, the job may move forward quickly. If not, there’s more work to be done. This guide will explain the latter.
Difficulty: ⅖
Time: 3 hours
Cost: Under $150
Where to find it?
Heath installs a doorbell using the old doorbell wiring. The previous homeowners disabled the doorbell and buried the old chime location in the wall.
