    canada and showerstalls

    The Mrs and I have been watching a couple of Holmes on Homes and we noticed something that appeared odd to us. It appears that the shower stalls all have a tub filler in them. Anyone know why? I'm guessing it's code in Canada, but still can't figure out why. Mrs says it's for easier shower...

    What's the best way to "start up" a newly pumped septic tank?

    what i was told by the septic tank guy. My wife and I are approaching 60. He said let the grandkids poo in it, we do, he said that their bacteria was stronger than ours and would "seed" it better than any commercial product. FWIW

    hard to wipe my a??

    Is a bidet seat the answer? I have a toto drake ada and it works fine. But, permit the indiscretion, I have a spinal problem that is making it harder to wipe. I don't mean to be gross, can anyone recommend a bidet seat to fit a toto drake? I never thought that I would reach this point, but...

    drip from tank bolt, Help!

    thanks for catching my typos. I did mean nut and I never let a metal washer come into direct contact with Porceline/china/whatever. I always use a rubber washer either under or over the metal washer as appropriate. I did go to some hardware stores in the sticks where I live to try and...

    drip from tank bolt, Help!

    :confused: I just installed my second Toto drake. This one for the guest bathroom. The first one I installed, about a year ago in the master bath, went without a hitch. This one has a slight drip from the right hand tank bolt that I cannot seem to stop no matter what I do. I used the...

    How does electric sprinkler valve work?

    I am having a problem with what I believe to be a leak in my irrigation system. I called a professional to get an estimate for finding and fixing a leak. He proceeds to tell me how they check out all the wiring and solenoids and valves etc. "That's good" I think to myself, but the sprinklers...
