You guys were right about the fill tube. The clip had come loose and it was up against the outside of the tube. I had looked in the tank to check for a water level adjustment and just did not notice...

I did not mention my concern about the tiny water surface area to the users. Today after some real world testing they said "its ok but you have to brush it after every use". They have never had any...

Thank you for the responses.

I went ahead and finised the install. The quality, fit and finish are excellent and the Drake is very nice looking.
The flush seems to be comparable to the 1.6's.

I purchased a Toto Drake from a local plumbing supply. The Drake 2 was tempting but I decided to stay with the Drake 1 just for the 1.6 gallon Gmax. The bowl is a C744EL.

As I was about to...

The copper is almost 35 years old and would be disconnected at both ends if we replace the valve so I just thougt it would be a good idea to replace it while it is uncovered.

The PVC fitting where my service line transitions from PVC to copper cracked at the threads. There is approx. 12 Ft of 1" copper from the transition to the house. It is about 3 Ft deep.

What ever happened here?

I have the same problem. I have replaced the cartridge and cleaned the vent valve.

Is there a proper or recommended length that a bathroom faucet spout should extend over the sink? A lot of them extend 2" past the edge which seems too close.

Thanks

Thanks,
I have removed the rusted ring and sanded off the 1/4" lip on the inside of the 4". A new ABS flange with a SS ring slides nicely into the 4" solving both the height and rusted ring...

Concrete floor, 4” ABS with rusted steel flange.

ISSUES:
1. Top of flange is about 3/16” below tile.
2. Flange is rusted bad enough that it will not hold bolts much longer.
3. Concrete is not...

Just curious,

How often do professionals break either the tank or base? Which is more common?

If an installer breaks a new customer supplied Toto where is the liability? Are most licensed...

What a nightmare!
Stopped in at Winnelson on a Monday to get a quote on a Promenade 423SFG. $*** with a week to 10 days delivery. Ordered it on Friday and checked back the following Friday. "we...

So what are the known issues with the latest revision of the Champion 4? The HD guy said that they had nothing but problems with the older ones. However, he recommended Kohler which seems to be far...

We are looking for Round Front, ADA or Comfort height and a Sanigloss type finish.

So far the only Toto that has all three is the Promenade. It only lists a one year warranty?

I thought the...

So,
The Drake 1.28 is the Eco-Drake and
The Drake II is actually the Gwyneth?

Here are my final two choices:
Promenade 1.6, Round, ADA height, Sanigloss.
Drake II 1.28, Round, ADA height,...

Today my supplier told me that he could no longer order the Drake but could order the Drake II. This is fine because you can get ADA height, round bowl and Sanigloss. My only concern is that these...

I need to replace my Parents' standard toilet with a reasonably priced ADA height model. They would prefer a round bowl. An ADA Drake with round bowl and Sanigloss would be perfect but it appears...

I am installing a new bathroom vanity. The tail piece is 1 1/4 and the ABS at the wall is 1 1/2.

Is it best to use a 1 1/2 trap and adapt it at the tail piece or use a 1 1/4 trap with a 1 1/2 to 1...

I also have a Kohler about the same age. It is a nightmare to keep the bottom clean and never really has looked very good after the first month.
The two products that worked OK were ZAP (not sure if...

I need to order a vanity top from Crane Plumbing. Lowes is quoting full retail.
Can anyone recommend a source?

Thanks

Good point! Thanks. The trap only allows a maximum of three inches from center without an offset. This is why we ask before charging in.

Not sure what sink I will order. Does 20 - 21" sound right...

I am replacing an old 30" standard vanity with a 30" door/drawer type 33" tall.
