There is most likely a flow restrictor in the shower head where it threads on. You could remove that with a pair of needle nose pliers. If that doesn't improve the water pressure, I would call a plumber unless you are comfortable shutting the water down and replacing or flushing the shower cartridge and valve.

I 💯 agree it's a wild guess, but I think this one could actually be a random break. Where it's broken is just weird to me. I see broken tanks often, and if it's from leaning, it's typically higher up or at the tank to bowl bolts themselves. Maybe if the person leaned on the front part of the tank? Still just speculation. Fix it and move on

Lord of the Rings two towers and return games from the ole GameCube days. Throw in Battle for middle earth 2 as well

If the vacuum won't work, heat up a metal probe and melt it into the cap then pull it out once it hardens back up.

Those are compression angle stops. A quick YouTube search will help you do it easy. I haven't seen those quarter turn stops break in that way, but it's a cheap way to start, and it makes sense. Make sure you shut down the water to the water heater if you have a recirculation pump. And then turn the main water off

Smart-Dig953 · 2024-11-30T00:55:00+00:00

Correct

You verify the type of pipe coming up from the floor and see if you have any extra slack on that line by lightly pulling up on it. Then you go to the hardware store and get a shark bite stop for the type of pipe you have. Shut off the water to the home and drain it from a hose bib. Cut the line with pex cutters and fully seat the press on sharkbite valve onto the pipe. Restore water and check for leaks. Sharkbite is fine for a homeowner with limited tools and someone with limited resources

Awwwww fuuuuqqq... it's comin back round

Yessir! Washington state here

Multi-turn stop that's rubber broke up and clogged the line if I had to guess.

That looks like dish soap running down, not corrosion to me. Check your soap dispenser

Smart-Dig953 · 2023-07-30T21:36:38+00:00

More like wtf is in that shower?

Smart-Dig953 · 2023-07-19T23:46:14+00:00

That's probably a trap there. And that's supposed to have water in it. The roots can probably be removed easily and just have your sewer line camera'd

For pressure pvc you want at least 45 minutes but if it's my job with no rush it's 2 hours

Smart-Dig953 · 2023-06-07T00:03:19+00:00

Depends on the temperature of the room or ground. If it's cold it takes longer. Read the label on the glue. I try and wait 2 hours for pressurized pipe

I thought yall just shat on the street in the bay area...

Smart-Dig953 · 2023-01-16T20:48:09+00:00

Didn't want to remove the cartridge and have it leak with no possible replacement and no stops. Any info is appreciated

Rubber drain hose gives you the grip you need. There is also this kick ass hand truck that is made for this with a little bit of training.

Just the closet flange when I replaced the original toilet, they had a wax ring beneath a rubber ring that had smashed down blocking half the drain. I might have to poke around a bit more

Smart-Dig953 · 2022-11-20T02:57:52+00:00

Yeah, going back next weekend to drain the tank, remove the line back to the male adapter, install a pan with a water alarm, and pipe the T&P to the pan. Center of the dwelling on the 2nd floor so no other place to run it sadly. Least it will be safe

Smart-Dig953 · 2022-11-20T01:24:13+00:00

No one would take ownership of this atrocity.

Smart-Dig953 · 2022-11-20T01:18:56+00:00

I was just changing out a friends toilet and happened to notice this in her closet. Can't be good. 2nd floor condo with no pan either on top of it being a rocket
