    Hello and Happy New Year...

    Have been trying to find out the location of the front door doorbell transformer and can’t find it at all....does anyone know where it typically is located in the single family homes built by Van Metre???

    I’ve looked in the basement near the electrical panel, in the room where furnace and hot water heated is located and nada! Not sure where else it could be!

    In short, any help you may offer would be appreciated!!

    Our doorbell transformer is located above the metal box of the light in the basement room where the electrical panel, furnace, and water heater is located. You may also guess-timate where the transformer can be by following the wire that comes from the chime and follow it downstairs. Good luck!

    Yeah, ours is attached to a light box/socket in our basement (unfinished) near the utility area

    If you have a finished basement, it is likely hidden above the drop ceiling.
