Rittenhouse Service & Repair Forum
I have a Rittenhouse intercom system that was installed in the 60\'s that worked fine until recently. Everything still works fine except the main intercom/control unit. Is there a replacement unit I can buy that I can use with all my existing speakers, etc throughout the house? Even a unit that only played music would be OK with me.

I bought a house built in 1950 with an old Rittenhouse door chime, Model #365. I have no idea if it can be repaired. I don\'t have the front door button. The inner workings are very dirty. Do you think it\'s worth sending to you? Thanks, Kathie

A Rittenhouse model 312 came with my home. It works but the chimes are not loud enough to heard unless you are in the room where the doorbell is mounted.I would hate to replace it because other than this it is very workable.
