    Do I need a flange extender

    How much does it have to squish? It looks like it'll go about 1/2 inch. Or should I maybe use a fatter wax ring to be safe? Can I stack 2 wax ring together?

    Copper or PEX

    I'm not asking about the quality. I'm asking about it's ability to carry the same amount of water. Will 3/4" PEX carry the same amount of water to my shower as 3/4" copper will?

    Copper or PEX

    I just received a price to upgrade the hot and cold supplies for my new shower. We want to upgrade from 1/2" to 3/4". The plumber says I can save about $600 by using PEX instead of copper. He tells me there is no difference between using copper or using PEX. Will 3/4" PEX give me the...

    Very confused about shower connections

    In a previous thread I questioned the size of the supply lines required for a shower renovation I'm planning. I was told to use 3/4" vs 1/2" for all connectins. Looking at the different parts the manufacture supplied with the system. I've noticed the connections on the values are 3/4"...

    What water heater for a limited space

    Actually there isn't a tub just a 60X34 shower. So I don't have to be concerned about tub filling. The shower head is rated for only 2.5 GPM. It's the 4 body sprays that are gushers and they shouldn't be used much.

    What water heater for a limited space

    I think the biggest demand will be from the 4 body sprays they're rated at 1.5 GPM. That's a total of 6 GPM at any one time.

    What water heater for a limited space

    I'm remodeling my bathroom and putting in a new shower spa system. It's a Moen 275 system. I've been told to run at least 3/4" supply lines for the shower systems. I've turned the water on with my current setup and seem to get plenty of water and pressure. I'm not a plumber just a DIY...

    Help with a shower supply lines install

    Here are the ratings of the fixtures. The handheld is rated at 2.5 GPM The rain shower head at 2.5 GPM The body sprays at 1.75 GPM each. If all are running it's a total demand of 12 GPM. I don't really think we will ever run all at the same time. So I think the potential max demand at any one...

    Colors of Toto toilets

    This may be a little off subject and it isn't a plumbing question but I'll ask anyway. Toto has two shades of white for their fixtures: Cotton white and Colonial white. What the difference between them? Cotton White

    Because my wife told me to. She seems to not trust my judgment on this and wanted a pro's view.
