    Best hose for AC main drain to sink

    We have two AC units which are each plumbed to drain into the top side of pee traps in bathroom sinks. I don’t have pics to show, but it’s a pretty standard installation from what I can tell looking for answers online. A hose with worm gear clamps on each end connects the main drain PVC pipe...

    Moen mini-wide-spread sink faucet questions

    Hey guys, We have a 12-year-old house that has Moen Kingsley and Monticello 2-handle sink faucets installed throughout. I just recently noticed that the assembly was loose at my sink in the master bath, and investigated to see how hard it would be to tighten it back up. I was shocked to find...

    Closet flange positioning relative to finished floor

    I have a two-story house that is 10 years old. Over the holidays one of the toilets upstairs leaked into the ceiling above our bedroom. When I removed it, I found the original flange was quite rusty. We had seen a wet spot on the ceiling sometime last year, but it never got worse. I (mistakenly)...

    Problems with Wellmate SP-series pressure tanks?

    Folks, In a different thread I posted a problem I had which was ultimately caused by failure of our pressure tank. We had a Pentair Wellmate SP-series tank which failed after 5.5 years, and only had a 5 year manufacturer's warranty. Just wondered if there were others who have any information...

    Off-color well water

    I have spent a lot of time searching online and found this forum to be among the best at providing answers to questions without fussing about "search the forum first". I have searched forums and cannot seem to see any situations that directly correspond to mine, but that may be a failure of my...

    How do I loosen (but not lose) the well seal?

    Thanks in advance for answering a newbie's question...I did a search but didn't find an answer to this exact question. I recently rearranged the plumbing around my well, and want to pivot the well seal about 90 degrees in order to accommodate the changed location of the tank. The piping...
