    Tile detaching from Wedi shower pan

    Anyway-- They're coming to look at it I would like to interrupt this firestorm to announce that a Wedi tech is coming next week to look at my shower. After more investigation, I determined that the problem was that the black outer layer of the Wedi had separated from the inner blue layer...

    Tile detaching from Wedi shower pan

    The tile size issue could explain some things, but I don't think they were giving warnings about that in 2008. I am pretty good at following instructions and I put a lot of consideration into what kind of tile I used. But, maybe I did miss it. But now I think I have discovered a worse...

    Tile detaching from Wedi shower pan

    I wrote to Bastian. About the flexture-- what I mean is that since the Wedi is a foam, perhaps it compresses a tiny bit under a large load, causing a localized flexing. Anyway, I'll see what Bastian has to say. Thainks

    Electiric vs. Gas?

    We're having a lot of old pipe replaced, and the plumber thinks we should put in a tankless water heater while we're at it. I would like to free up the space in the utility room, so I'm good with the idea. Currently we have a 40 gallon gas water heater which works fine and we never run out of...

    Toto Carlyle vs. Toto Ultramax: Capacity?

    Hello-- A couple of years ago we installed a Toto Carlyle in our downstairs bathroom. I chose a Toto because my husband is a champion toilet-clogger, and chose the Carlyle because I had only a 10" rough in to work with. For the most part the Carlyle has worked well, but my husband still...
