Instead of hardwiring the doorbell transformer to your AC, you could put
that on a switch, or use some sort of X10 aplliance module to turn it on and
off.

Do any of you know whether there is such a thing as a doorbell that I
can
shut
off and on from the inside of the house? On weekend mornings, I'd like
to
be
able to deactivate the doorbell or switch the sound off. I've been to
several
hardware stores and haven't found what I'm looking for. Thanks for any
suggestions.


How about stuffing tissue into the bell to quiet it?
