When you say no washers I was thinking it could be the o-rings on the cartridge that I see I can order. Or are you saying it is an internal component and that isn’t repairable?

I was able to get all the parts off and now left with this. The cartridge looks like a 47310 cartridge. Do you think I just need washers if it is only leaking? Are those shutoffs on either side? looks like a large allen wrench and inside I see what looks like a threaded opening.

I believe I have a Grohe 34.122 (see picture) and it has started leaking. I have no issues with hot or cold water etc just a leak on the valve. I assume I just need an O-Ring kit or do I need an entire valve? If so where do I get a kit? Any special tools to remove this valve? I also can't...

I am looking at purchasing a new home and the inspector scoped the sewer. He found some abnormality but wasn't exactly sure what it was and concluded it might just be extra material in the pipe. Here is a picture I wanted to see if anyone sees something that is concerning.

I have been in my current house for about 4 years and this issue just started. It seems when I turn off the hot water in just about every faucet I get a real bad water hammer noise. I checked the PSI at one of the sinks and they are at 60-65. I did try turning the water off and draining the...

Appreciate the help. Is this an uncommon issue? I see lots of discussion on sewer lines but not French drains

If there is no access I wonder if I wait until it grows long enough to get to the basin then let the ends soak in the basin would that do anything?

Is the only real solution to get rid of the tree? Any alternatives. If not what is the secret to finding the tree. I assume it is the biggest one closest to the area but that is just a guess.

Thanks. So I am just buying this house. I know there is some pipe that looks like that sticking out in front of the house. I assumed it was the sewer line. Would that make sense to have a sewer cleanout sticking out? How do you tell if sewer or French drain?

The basement is about 10 feet down and the pipe is another foot down. I don't believe there is a clean out. Is there usually one for French drains. If not how period you use the product. There is a large tree maybe 15 feet from the house in the location of the sump so I assume that is the tree.

I just noticed that I have roots in my French drain pipe feeding into the sump basin. I was able to reach in and pull out an arms length worth not sure if there is more or not. The water seems to move fine as my basement hasn't flooded. What is the best way to deal with this? How common is...

Can I put some sort of dye in the drain pipe in the ground to see if it goes into the sump pump some how?

Honestly I am not sure if the pump was working properly or not before. I have to play with the float to get it working again today it seemed kind of jammed shut. It is working better but I plan to pull it and clean it. On my sump pump basin I took a look and it is filling up with water...

I have a sewage pit basin that I assumed was connected to the bathroom in my basement and the drain in the utility room for the furnace and water heater. I haven't used the bathroom in the basement in many years and wanted to make sure everything was working right. I didn't pull the entire...

The only way would be the sewer pump but when the tub is on the pump doesn't go off.

I have a separate pump for rainwater. This sewer pump goes right to the sewage line.

I recently purchased a house with a full bathroom in the basement. It is about 10 feet from the sewage pump so I always assumed that it went into that basis and then was pumped out. Today I was bored and let the water run in the bathtub for awhile and I never heard the pump go on. My main...

Is it possible to vent out of the side of the house and not a soffit? I was thining they would just use one of the caps like for a dryer vent on the siding?

I was thinking about using a fantech in-line fan. Can one be used if just going horizontal and not vertically through the roof?

So I would just have to run it a little higher than the fan and use something to hold it up. Maybe some sort of bracket on the rafters.
