    Kitchen sink drain question

    We had a leak because of a really bad connection to the garbage disposal. Realizing how old the disposal was, I decided to get a new one. The old one had some kind of flex pipe to connect to the Tee that was a little bit lower (it is a double sink). I decided to try to keep everything level...

    Question about builder problems

    We hired a builder to remodel the master bathroom. We had him shrink the size of a closet, to make room for a soaking tub. The foot of the tub is where a sink was, so plumbing was already there. We then replaced the other sink with a new vanity (very little plumbing) and took out an old...

    tile height around a freestanding tub

    We are turning a 70's fiberglass shower/tub into a tiled shower. To replace the tub, we bought a freestanding tub ( http://www.anzzi.com/product/anzzi-maple-series-5-58-ft-freestanding-bathtub-in-white/ ) to put in an alcove in the bathroom. It's about 24" at the low point, holds 18" of water...

    Moen 2570 vs 2590?

    My wife and I are putting in a new shower and I think we want a Moen posi temp valve (especially after reading some things here). My question is which valve is best? I like how the stops on both. It looks like the 2590 is threaded. Is that better? Is there any other difference? Thank you

    WH heat trap interfering with Hot Water Lobster?

    I put in a Hot Water Lobster recirculating system and it doesn't seem to be working. After doing some research, it looks like my WH (5-year old Whirlpool Gold, 50-gallon) has heat traps that could be interfering. Is there an easy way around this? If not, is there a hard way around it?

    add 2nd water heater?

    I have a two-story house with a good, new water heater in the basement. On the first floor, we get hot water very quickly. Everything is great. On the second floor, it sometimes seems like it takes forever to get hot water. Once we get it, it's nice and hot (and stays hot). I'm assuming...

    Whole house water filters?

    Does anyone here have experience with them? I have a community well system with treated water, but there is a slight rust taste. I'm hoping that one of these would fix that. Locally, I can get systems made by Ace Hardware, Culligan and Whirlpool. The prices range from about $35 to about $60...

    Full tub leaks downstairs

    My wife and I just moved into a 1974 house. She has used the tub upstairs for baths (and I've taken showers) a few times with no problems, but she filled it really high this time to get a good soak. I was downstairs and thought I heard water -- and sure enough if was dripping down into the...
