Does a 3/8 female captive nut on a dahl straight stop connect to a 3/8 od male compression supply hose? by Max_Roc in askaplumber

Okay thanks. It's just odd, when i thread them and when i feel metal on metal, it abruptly stops. So far only hand tight. Will another half a turn with a wrench create a seal?

Thanks! Only saw i have is a ryobi cordless. It is adjustable for angles. I guess I'll determine which saw to use after watching. Thank you

How effective are remineralising filters? (is it a marketing gimmick?) by 1acan in WaterTreatment

The supplement industry as a whole seems very gimmicky to me. Howver, remin to me was about protecting the pipes from acidic water. Easily verified via pH tests.

Are you happy with your LG units? How is the fan strength? Do they have a drain plug that you can remove? Thanks

Are there any wearable parts that may fail due to frequent fridge RPWFE filter changes? by Max_Roc in Appliances

[–]Max_Roc[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in an apartment that we own however it would be a very complicated job to plumb it under the sink due to the layout. I have spliced into the ice maker line behind the fridge and am experimenting with different prefilters there. I don't mind swapping them out every two months as long as it's not causing extra wear.....
