Just had some maintenance on toilet. Is this normal? We never experienced or had this issue but we are told this is new and normal because of the new valve but I feel air is being pushed backward instead of going out. P.S we had some strange thing happening as well. Overheating floorboards (some areas, toilet, bedroom), steam coming through floor cracks, rotten musty burnt wood, odor and steam was all over the apartment. Although they said they took care of it but never explained. Please advise. submitted by /u/mazxps [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Heard some buzzing coming from my laundry closet. Opened the door and found out my laundry detergent that was on top of my water heater started leaking a lot of liquid detergent all over the top of it.

So I would like to know what this is and if the detergent could have damaged any things inside there. I w ..read more

What is the best way or part to connect a gas tank less water heater condensate line (1/2" pvc or poly) to the 2" standpipe, which in my case is angled out of the garage drywall at maybe 22°? The washer drain, of course, still has to feed into the pipe beside the condensate and allow the latter to have an air gap. I vaguely remember seeing a plastic, crescent shaped part that filled a fraction of the standpipe and created an air gap below the tubing, but I can't figure out what to call it to search for it. submitted by /u/ShellBeadologist [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hi all. I just moved into a new construction home and am looking to install a water softener system for my fiancée. I have been informed that my house is in fact already plumbed for a water softener, so I got the aquasure harmony, this is the one I got. I have very basic plumbing knowledge so forgive me if this is a stupid question: As seen in the pictures, there are 2 1" PEX pipes coming from the wall. After shutting off my water, should I just be able to pull off that front pipe connecting them and attach my water softener connectors to these pipes easily or is there other work that has ..read more

During a freeze, a pvc connection came loose. Can I clean it up and reseal/cement it? or Should I replace? and if I were to replace it, just the right straight pipe, or the whole section? I am handy but I have little experience with Plumbing. Cutting and replacing scares me lol ​ This is a water supply from a Well, before the pressure tank. ​ Appreciate any advice! ​ https://preview.redd.it/r9btr9wh1jzc1.jpg?width=977&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=28d7720c01aa6fd7fbd011457ced6b9a8dec16dc submitted by /u/FlipThePizza [visit reddit] [comments ..read more
