I am a custom home builder, and our client selected an Elkay 3322 Harmony Kitchen Sink – Mocha composite (aka granite) sink. The home is on a private well, with water softener, and reverse osmosis filter at the Kitchen location of the subject sink. We are constantly getting water spots...

Thanks Jim. Many have asked, and we have installed "point of use", but this may be the first time we have installed whole house tankless. If seems you have provided the discovery I targeted. Do you, or any other readers have recommended tankless whole house units providing less risk and better...

What is the rating of the two tankless? With 5 baths, 2 laundry rooms....they better be big! A family home with guest rooms for the grown children - not living at home - normally just 2 adults living in the home. Holidays - family gatherings - may be the max use of facilities. We were...

I am a desing - build custom builder. We have been using pex systems and manifold distribution. We typically operate each fixture (H&C) with H&C manifold valves. One of our design - build clients has asked that valve controls (both hot and cold) be limited in scope to one room...

Thanks, I checked out the link. As they say "A pic is worth a thousand words." I can see how it works.

Does the adapter have parts that mate the drain exit (which is 8" off the floor in the rear of the toilet / exiting down) ) to the (typical) floor drain?

I am a builder, and our client (against recommendations) bought a display Toto toliet. It is a 2 piece, and appears to be a Vespin, but we have no ID as yet. The toilet came without boxing, instructions and nothing more than the tank and bowl (with all internal parts). The drain is in the...
