I have noticed that o my Toto drake and entrada toilets that if the lever is not pushed down all the way and held momentarily the water spot does not refill fully. Is standard flush procedure to make sure the lever is held all the way down ? They flush very well with even a lazy push. L

In my country city water supply is unreliable, usually few days per week there is no water, so most households have tanks which are filled from city supply which feeds a pump which pumps into house when city pressure is low or zero.

I installed the 1000gal tank in addition to the 2 400gal tanks that were there already. The 1000gal is about 4 or 5 feet taller. I put in a brass flapper type check valve at the base of the 400gal tanks where they join with the line from the base of the 1000gal tank(from left) and goes to the...

Hello, I presently have a property with 2 400gal tanks identical, they feed a jet pump and associated pressure tank to a house. Would like to add a 1000gal which is both wider and taller. Will simply placing a oneway valve at the base of the 400gal tanks prevent the height pressure of the...

Non CEFIONTECT is $221 I got drake CEFIONTECT for $221 earlier this year The next couple weeks, prices fluctuated between that and $330

Toto all the way, have ours a few months now and there is no comparison. Only issue is sometimes with big loads the powerful flushing out causes skid marks as the load moves out, lol.

As suspected, the line was clogged further down, snaked and all is well now. Aav was still put in there is a kitchen drain further down the line and no vent until after there. Line is also under sized at 1.5" which i am unable to do anything about.

Hello, I have a situation with no venting, shower and sink connected to same waste line. The shower drains slowly due to no venting and air lock caused by sink trap. Would adding a Studor AAV(green) in location on drawing help ? Thanks, L

Ok thanks, I found a supplier of your CSV in my country.

Hello, In my country water supply is sometimes irregular along with the water pressure. So typically most houses have a storage tank(800g+) filled from the mains and utilize a pump/pressure tank to pump water from tank to the house. Pumps are typically 1/2 to 1.5hp jet type. House...

Hello, I have a situation on a property where there are two showers next to each other with no traps and they simply join together below. There is no vent either. There is the sewer smell and if one shower is in use, there is often water backing up in the other. It is very difficult to get...

I ran some tests tonight with a pressure gauge, both with the water heater on and off. The heater is not the problem as the pressure creeped up to max on the gauge. Good thing is that the mains is split into two - one for a tank supply which feeds a pump in case water mains supply is off...

yes, there is no expansion tank, should I just have one installed nearest to the cold input of the water heater ? Also are expansion tanks the same as water pump pressure tanks ?

Hello, I have a house in a neighbourhood with very high water pressure 100+psi. A pressure reducing valve was installed and appears to work once there is water flowing, this was tested at various settings and looking at the gauge. However when there is no water used in the house/flowing...
