My parents stayed at my house for a few days and couldn’t figure out how to operate the shower in our bathroom. It is a Moen where you pull the handle out to turn it on and turn left and right to change temp. It also has a diverter above to switch between the main head and hand shower. Now...

I am roughing in for a new 1/2 bathroom and am having trouble with venting the toilet. See the attached photo. The vent for this bathroom and a laundry room above is to the left of the toilet. I would like to have the closet bend go to the right under the toilet to stay in the joist bay all...

I am running plumbing in my unfinished basement for a first floor remodel. I am having trouble getting my mind around how to make a 90 degree turn in the drain pipes (horizontal to horizontal) but where one pipe is above the other. So turning down and right. I sketched a crude diagram below...

I am having a strange problem with my Toto toilet. If I flush the toilet and then turn on the shower/tub or sink faucet, the toilet will run until I turn off the other faucet. When I turn off the other faucet, the toilet immediately stops filling. The tank is filling and going in the overflow...

I shut the water off at the meter when out of town for Christmas, and upon returning and turning water back on I have low water pressure at the kitchen sink faucet and 2nd floor shower/tub. Other fixtures (basement utility sink, 1st floor bathroom sink and 2nd floor bathroom sink) are fine...

I have an 80 sqft bathroom and recently installed a 110 cfm Panasonic bath fan. If the furnace or AC is on, everything is fine. If not, moisture accumulates all over the ceiling, walls, the light, mirror, window, etc. There are now water marks on the walls where the moisture has run down the...

I am remodeling my tub area and the tub spout is currently located where the overflow would normally be. This end of the tub is an exterior wall. The faucet is in the wall on the long side of the tub. I would like to move the spout up into the wall, but that will put the pipe in the exterior...

Does anyone have experience with this Hansgrohe faucet? I am concerned with the 45 degree angle combined with the height of the spout that it might hit the side of the bowl and splash. I plan to install in a standard size vanity top and bowl. I want to make sure style isn't getting in the way...

I have an old bathtub with the tub spout mounted inside the tub where an overflow would normally be. I would like to replace it with something that doesn't stick out into the tub as far. It appears most of the tub spouts currently available are six or more inches. I have seen in some old...
