thank you, i will replace it with cpvc.

I did not know that, it was already installed in the house when I bought it. What should I replace it with?

I have a 3/4" water heater pressure relief valve that runs in the wall to a drain. the pipe broke at the elbow that is coming out of the wall. I want to know how can I avoid opening up the wall to use that pipe? Right now there is still a piece of pvc glued in the elbow but it is broke off flush...

could a bad flow sensor cause the unit to make a banging noise when the water is turned off at the sink?

Thank you I will try this, i hope it helps

the water heater is the high spot in my house, i think. do know how i can get the air out?

Should I put a water Arrestor on both the inlet and outlet of a water heater? it seems that just the cold feed line is making the noise and shaking but was unsure if I need to put one on each line. Also the cold feed to the water heater has a ball valve to cut on/off water to the water heater...

I bought a home and the hot water tank was rusted out so I decided to install a tankless water heater. I installed it and it works but after about 3 months i started to hear a loud banging noise when the water was in use. I researched it and most people said it was jackhammering, i think that...

the tank was pumped out and the home is sitting empty with the water cut off. So when I looked in there there was a little water in the bottom but not even close to being filled up.

this is a foreclosure and sold as is. but i did have a second opinion and they said it is good to go and are giving me a written letter stating that.

yes it is a concrete tank. it has risers on it and the lids are about 3 inches underground. the guy said they people who installed it must have done it for the looks.

Thank you for the reply and the great link. I am reading through that information. I am in the middle of buying a foreclosed home and when I had the septic tank drained and inspected it was found that the one of the lids were half way put on and it had been raining for over 5 days. when he...

If a septic tank is pumped out and the house is empty and it rains for a day or two, should the tank fill back up with water from the field lines? Or should it remain empty until the sinks and toilets are used in the house? If it does the opposite of what it is suppose to do would that be due to...

This home is a foreclosure and is sold as is. So holding money in a escrow account is not an option. I was told that the spectic tank was drained not too long ago by the guy who came to do my inspection. He said he could tell because there was not that much sludge in the bottom. So I am...

I am looking to buy a home and had them come out and pump as well as inspect the septic tank before I commit to buy. The guy who pumped put the septic tank said that the tank is in good shape but could not tell me the shape of the field lines. He said he did notice that there were black marks...
