    Horizontal double fixture, need help with code section / number

    So nutshell, GC that did my remodel years ago installed a double fixture fitting horizontal and capped the top. Line was used to drain side by side toilets. Well it clogged about 6 inches down the turn and no matter what could not be cleared. This was in a slab so you can imagine the cost of the...

    How long does your RO membrane last?

    I am crunching the numbers and have a couple other filters to test. Can find aftermarket basic carbon for 20 for two. Name brand for 25 and from culligan direct they are 35. Not horrible but will add up, the big cost is the membrane. I want to test the 110 to see how well it works but am also...

    How long does your RO membrane last?

    Seriously no worries i did appreciate the effort. For some reason the other pic did not show up here but showed in my email update. Yes the system i have is the one with aqua-cleer name on the filters. Those can only be had from culligan direct, there are a few aftermarket and other culligan ez...

    How long does your RO membrane last?

    Its interesting because ac does stand for aqua-cleer but it is not the "aqua-cleer" model. Wish it was that easy but block takes EZ line filters which are self contained and dual nipple on the top. This is the only membrane i have been able to fine, not exact match to what i currently have but...

    How long does your RO membrane last?

    I do have a tds and test every 3-6 months. The unit i have is a culligan, if i had'nt been able to find filters on amazon for half the cost of culligan direct i would have seriously already considering something else. Just wondering if its cost effective to swap out so something more universal...

    Soft water but still green buildup

    Very true, i have dealt with others and had no issue with stuff like this, however this company Vigo wants proof and thats generally isnt an issue but i couldnt readily find the electronic copy of my reciept. I know i have it but where i put it, no idea currently. Though the replacement part i...

    Soft water but still green buildup

    Good callouts all the way around, long story short they wanted 35 for a new head and being the frugal bastard i am, i balked at that unless last resort. So found some time today to pull it all apart. Was told it doesnt come apart and needs to be replaced, they lie. The corrosion and thats what...

    Soft water but still green buildup

    It is a kitchen sprayer that works the same as the link provided. Assuming it is scale of some kind, what is the best way to clean so i can do that then monitor how long it takes to build back. I tried, several different cleaning products including a clr kitchen and bath and nothing seems to...

    Soft water but still green buildup

    replacing not a bad idea but really not an option. I am not sure what the kitchen is but it wasnt cheap, the bathrooms are hansgrohe fixtures both sink and shower. Shower no issues but sink there is. Holes are not clogged just build up, i think copper may be playing a part as the discoloration /...

    Soft water but still green buildup

I rarely believe those publication as they say hardness is 15-18 and its currently about 10. (may have...

    Soft water but still green buildup

    time, good question it doesnt bother me so much so i dont pay attention to it. The wife on the other hand its to the point it feels like its keeping her up at night. Changing it isnt an issue as you expressed easy enough. I just need to understand the cause so i can explain it to her better or...

    Soft water but still green buildup

    yes just on the aerator (where ones are present) or on the end of the spout for the bathtub, basically wherever water dries (over time not just splatter and dry). What odd just faucets not shower heads or shower handhelds.

    Soft water but still green buildup

    Have softner thats working well, what i still have on faucets only is blue/green (mostly green) buildup. No issues in dishwasher, shower heads, washing machines or tankless. But on kitchen and bath faucets we have this buildup that is driving the wife crazy. I have tried to explain to her that...

I have fixed that where i could however most without tearing off the roof and sheathing to remove blocking that was put in place...
