Had a pro over to install a new water heater and just noticed this crimp (6 months later).....Looks not that great to me, but it's been like that for 6 months now. Does it look ok to leave it as is since it's been solid for half a year now?

Trying to figure out the best location to put in my 20" carbon filter. I know it needs to go after the softener and before the water heater, but there isn't much room directly above the softener. I'm thinking the best thing to do is put it to the left of my water heater so it will be easiest to...

My Zoeller M53 has been working great for 15 years, and my water level alarm was going off this morning. The float wasn't able to pull the switch up to activate the pump. Looks like I can get a new switch for about$100 or replace the entire pump for about $200. I'm sure the brine discharge from...

We installed a GE softener several years ago, and today I am having a water quality test done. They took two samples, one before and one after. The "after" looks terrible compared to the "before." It's very yellow-orangish in comparison. I know we have a community well with moderately hard...

*Edit: I'm not sure the leak is coming from the threads. I got another photo up close of what appears to be condensation on the sleeve that surrounds the valve. Original post: 15 year old tank with no issues until this morning. Found slow drip coming from threads on the TPR valve. Water is...

I just installed this Zoeller 508 backup system to pair up with my existing M53. The trouble is, my sump pit inlet pipe comes into the pit relatively low. If I follow the Zoeller install recommendations they prefer maximum float travel to minimize short cycles on the backup pump, but that would...
