I can't locate my list of approved piping materials that connect to the inlet/outlet on the water heater but I don't think this one (photo) makes the cut. Please advise.

I am sure this is against the manufacturer's approved method but would you consider this acceptable (see photo)? This is a hose bib line with several such unions with yellow glue and several worm...

I inspected a 40 year old house with basement today and it had a laundry room in the basement. Washing machine discharged into a stack that was about 4.5 feet off ground, then it went down toward...

Thank you for the input.

Hey folks,
Is there a maximum distance a toilet can be from a wall behind the toilet? Is it the tank, base of toilet or neither? I know about the side-to-side and front clearances but wonder about...

I apologize if this has been asked before.

I have seen tanks that are loose, rock back and forth easily. Bolts are pretty snug. Appears the gasket is too tall and the bowl is not close to that...
