    Nest Thermostat Power Supply and Boiler Problem

    I am not even sure I can fully express the issue I am having but I will try. A few days ago one of my 20+ year old zone valves had to be replaced by my plumber. The new valve apparently needs a c wire for the thermostat to work. My older valves did not require a c wire for heat only thermostats...

    New Lav Faucet Issues

    I just installed a new Delta Kayra two handle wideset bathroom faucet. I am having two issues. Issue #1 is the water pressure seems somewhat less than the faucet it replaced. There is still ample pressure and perhaps this model just has less overall pressure, or perhaps the pressure is less...

    Hot Water Heater Mixing Valve or Not

    I'm having my 38 gallon Bradford White HWH replaced Monday (under warranty). I am contemplating having the plumber install a thermostatic mixing valve at that time. I have a friend who says I shouldn't add the valve because it adds a level of annual maintenance to the HWH. Just wondering what...

    Toilet Hissing Even Though Water Turned Off

    My mother in law had a plumber over today to work on her American Standard toilet. He replaced the fill valve, and then tested the water pressure and said it was reading over 100 psi when it should be about 60 psi. He then replaced the pressure valve on the main water line. I got a late night...

    Lost screw in toilet

    I was disassembling the flush valve in a Toto Supreme toilet to replace the gasket, and one of the heavy nuts that hold the screws to the valve fell off and appears to have gone down the toilet (no pun intended). The other one fell off and stayed right in place, but the other one is nowhere to...

    Delta 17 Multichoice Disassembly

    I need to take apart a Delta 17 Multichoice shower control, and from the videos I have seen the first step after turning off the water is to pull of the front cap. I have played with it as much as I can but it won't come off. I don't want to end up breaking it, but am I missing something?

    Venting Multiple Fans

    I have 2 Panasonic fans with 4 inch ducts, which re both venting through flexible venting into a non-flexible 3 inch duct pipe out of the side of the house. In addition, one of the two fans is somehow missing the plastic damper, but to replace that I would need the entire damper assembly...

    Crown BWC Error Message

    My Crown BWC151 boiler keeps showing an error message of E19 - according to the panel it means return water temperature is too high. My plumber who installed the boiler 3 years ago has been at my house 4 days in a row and can't figure out the problem. We had a similar issue about a year or so...

    Panasonic Bath Fan Wiring

    I have a new Panasonic Whisper Green fan, model FV-08VKSL4 (an interesting side note when you call Panasonic they only have instructions for SL3). I wasn't expecting the wiring to be as complicated as it seems, but I am a little stumped. I was hoping to be able to put this fan in without adding...

    Toto Supreme E Max Leaking?

    I have a Toto Supreme E Max that was installed about 8 months ago. It is just starting to make loud whining noise intermittently, and when I take the top off the tank there appears to be a slow drip from under the top of the fill valve. The instruction manual from Toto is virtually useless. Any...
