Disclaimer: The house and well are less than 5 years old. There was a hard freeze in February, some frozen pipes in the house but no burst pipes. I am not a plumber. Sorry for the large pictures. We have had a lot of rain lately so I turned off the sprinklers. I run the sprinklers late at night...

My house was built in 2016. Most of the plumbing is pex (or whatever the other similar stuff is). Above the water heater is a hot water recirculator that has copper on both sides including coming out of the wall. There is also a check valve on the water heater side that leads to the cold return...

I have a new to me house that is 4 years old this year. This is my first experience with an aerobic system. We have had some heavy rains recently. After the rain, my sprayers run a lot and often. I have checked the house for any leaking toilets and have not found any. The water softener has a...

Can I reverse a P trap? Instead of installing the way they are all normally installed, can I turn it around so it drops down farther? This is a replacement bathroom sink with a deeper sink than before. There is no more room to move the drain tap piece up. That piece is as high as it can...

So I had new counters put in to a 24 year old house and also put in a new undermount SS sink. I decided to tackle the electrical and plumbing myself since I have done some in the past. On the sink, there are three tubs and the center has a garbage disposal. The drain is close to the right tub...
