    Water Heater flex

    My question is this: I used 2 heater hose flexes from Home Depot to connect my new unit. I used brass nipples on one end, and they are difficult to seal. Do the brass nipples not mate well to these hoses, or are the hose washers lame? They hold when just over hand tight (for now).

    Price Pfiister cartridge

    Price Pfiister cartridge

    Price Pfiister cartridge

    That's the rub. The faucet has a short 9" or so factory hose, with screens in the nuts/ferrules you extend with hoses to the shut off cocks. The screen is always clean, yet the "cartridge" clogs only on the hot side. It is quite the mind blowing deal here.

    Not an electrical issue. I do not know if it is a plumbing issue.

    Water for Icemaker

    I use my RO to feed my icemaker also. When he said "soft water" I assumed he meant a salt water unit.

    Controlling under-cabinet fluorescent fixtures with a wall switch

    Is it compliant to the letter of the code? No. Is it safe and not endangering your daughter? I don't see a giant threat here. I bet we are talking 25-40 watts here.

    Opinions on what to do with house with low voltage lighting setup

    "Touch plate." I would just leave it alone, but the issue is unless you renew all the relays, which GE still makes for lo vo controls and energy management, you will be changing one here and there for years. Parts can be found here...

    I am not a plumber, but without seeing it, it's kinda like asking how long a piece of string is.
