New homeowner with stinky water.
What about it?
Purchased the home 6 months ago. About 2 weeks back the hot water in my shower started to smell funky, and it will gag you at this point. After a little research I figured it was the anode rod, but the heater isn't a year old so that didn't make sense. I drained it to 3/4 full, cut off the intake, and went to check the rod, only to find a spray foam? Is it normal for a new unit to not have an anode? And if so, how do I get one in here? I really appreciate any help I can get 😕
Adding a second sump pump.
What about it?
The little 1/3 HP pump I currently have keeps getting overwhelmed (quite badly), I want to add a more powerful secondary pump.The second pump I want to add needs a 2" discharge pipe (as opposed to the 1.5" in the pic). I've thought of a few ways to go about it but I was wondering if there's an obvious option that you guys know of. Replace the 4" wye with a double wye? How would I go about removing the old fitting? Thanks!
Water dripping from underneath out of faucet screws
What about it?
Hey guys, not a plumber at all but my mom's sink is leaking so I'm playing the part. Looks like we've got these screws here holding the faucet from underneath, the sink is one of those shitty porcelain ones you have to get behind to work on. I'm gonna just take stuff apart and see if anything looks messed up, but I'm curious if anyone experienced here knows right away from that symptom. Water drips down from the heads of these 2 screws
Kraus filter faucet connector
What about it?
I’ve installed a Kraus single handle filtration faucet (KFF-161 and I’m looking for advice on under sink filters that are compatible. Is the filtered water inlet to the faucet (pictured) a standard type of fitting? I’m wondering if I’m stuck with the Kraus filter setup as well.
