    2 yo. AOS 50g Vertex Heater; Power light on, but Control Panel/leds are NOT

    hello. As mentioned, I have a 2 year old AO Smith Vertex hwh, and noticed today that there's no hot water. look at unit, the orange lighted on/off switch is working, but when I push the hotter/cooler temp buttons on the control panel (which 'wakes up' the settings, lets you adjust temp, etc)...

    Multi Stage Iron Reducing System

    I'm no pro, but the one kind of filter you haven't mentioned is an IRON FILTER. Google it...lots of options/mfgs For a situation like this, (all new system), call out a pro to test water, look things over & make suggestions. And not to judge, but if you're ponying up for a freakin' new...

    How I flush my HW tank

    perfect timing; was just thinking that I haven't flushed my 50g Vertex unit since I got it almost 2 years ago!!! Anything special I should do or look for? Will I get a lot of gunk coming out if water was softened & 'iron-filtered' before hitting the heater? I just checked, AOS says I should...

    Need to Treat Sulfur; Peroxide v. Ozone v. Chlorine For THIS Scenario...

    Hi there! Been a year with my Iron Curtain; it took care of the odor issues immediately, been working fine. Those flushings/regenerations every day get a bit loud, but udder 'n dat, it's great. But my dealer said I need/want to get some parts on my ozone generator replaced/checked YEARLY...

    Repair or Replace Fill Valve on OLD Kohler Wellington (80's)

    I have an old Kohler Wellington; narrow/tall tank, quite wonderfully 'mod' in all the right ways (matching pedestal sink 9see below, that's my color, too). Need to keep it running for a long time ahead! But the fill valve is running & won't stay 'stopped' when I wiggle the float anymore. SO...

    rushing to finish install of a NG garage heater before today's rotator cuff surgery delayed this update, and it also means this w ill be brief (for once:))...and poorly spelled 7 punctuated (right shoulder/right handed) cut to chase, getting a single tank hellenbrand iron curtain ozone unit...

    Need to Treat Sulfur; Peroxide v. Ozone v. Chlorine For THIS Scenario...

    Thanks. Knowing this much is SO helpful going into an appointment like this! It looks to me like my Hellenbrand single-cylinder softener IS a Fleck/Clack type valve...and it sounds like ozone might be the leading contender (it also sounded like Jim was thinking 'ozone') ill let you know what...

    Need to Treat Sulfur; Peroxide v. Ozone v. Chlorine For THIS Scenario...

    Thanks, all. In no particular order, inside toilet talk, it's a reddish brown, and a bit slimy. odor is the same with hot AND cold water. I'm guessing that means the WH anode replacement won't be a full solution, but I'll look into if might till help (lab guy mentioned this too!) I'd prefer...

    Need Help on Several Well Fronts, Quickly!

    Any issues w/that PK1A getting clogged or damaged by iron in water? Do all (most) of you agree with Cary that this is a great option? Are there any other options similar to the PK1A from other mfgs?

    Need Help on Several Well Fronts, Quickly!

    Thanks, all. That Pk1A thing looks AWESOME, Cary...and the reviews are insanely good everywhere I look!! $500-600 barely buys you a good 46gal pressure tank...to get something that has the controls & the ability to perform as good or BETTER than traditional setups...and put it in my...

    What Color Is My Toilet? Wild Rose

    Thank you! Looks like Kohler still makes an elongated seat in that color, the K-4652-45 . Am I safe assuming that it the color itself hasn't changed over the years...that this new 'Wild Rose" will match what I have pretty well? It looks pretty darn 'rose' colored on their website...I'll try...

    What Color Is My Toilet? Wild Rose

    Thanks. i saw those samples, but none seem to have as much 'orange' or 'rust' as i see in my toilet and/or the photos I attached Roussillon Red seems the closest, but looks to dark. Ditto with Sequoia. Terra Nueva seems too brown/not enough red or orange. What is the mfg date...1988?

    What Color Is My Toilet? Wild Rose

    No, not the latest B2B self-help book. I have a Kohler Wellington and the plastic piece that connects the bolt-holes to the seat itself broke on one side. I'll remove/clean/glue/clamp this piece & see if that holds, otherwise I'll be back for advice on if/how I can replace that piece down the...

    'Loose' Toto SS204 Seat; Normal, or Not?

    Put in a new Drake recently, along with a Toto SS204 seat. The looseness I speak of has nothing to do with the attachment bolts, but rather with the hinge. There's a good amount of play in both seats, I'd estimate you can move it side to side about 1/4" in each direction (with little/no...
