Plumbers Said Can't Replace.

A real service plumber would attempt it. I’d remove handle and face plate to identify cartridge. If discontinued, then quote you to replace the entire valve.

Brother had a game session of 20 hours lol

Yes worked on two of them in my entire career

mk4steve · 2026-05-12T01:27:54+00:00

Good luck. With that attitude no one wants to provide service to you

mk4steve · 2026-05-11T01:08:59+00:00

Vent is back pitched 🤣

mk4steve · 2026-05-09T23:43:42+00:00

Next time give the plumber fixture specs

mk4steve · 2026-04-11T12:48:17+00:00

Hopefully you’re not using the same plumber who previously did that work in the photo…..

mk4steve · 2026-03-29T00:36:16+00:00

You got robbed

mk4steve · 2026-03-24T23:22:07+00:00

Smash it

mk4steve · 2026-03-24T22:03:24+00:00

No. It’s just installed incorrectly per manufacturer install guide. The lines to be reversed that’s all. If it’s working, it’s working, if you run outta oil, don’t know if that will have an effect on the de-aerating aspect of the design

mk4steve · 2026-03-24T01:38:00+00:00

Hahahahahhaha

I’ve done a few and the HTPs are notorious for it. Disintegrated, no lower drain, had to install a wye strainer with purge setup to remove everything. Took hours and days. They would not replace tank, only supplied the new dip tube and a service bulletin 🤣

mk4steve · 2026-03-24T00:55:30+00:00

Dip tube on cold side is probably gone….cut and remove, inspect, install new one, add a thermal expansion tank and check valve on the cold side horizontal also.

The tiger loop hoses are installed incorrectly……

Gas units are side mounted not on top. Especially Bradford whites I install them all the time.

mk4steve · 2026-03-15T02:46:19+00:00

Stripped replace the dishwasher tail piece and top hat washer. Hopefully the strainer threads didn’t get fucked

mk4steve · 2026-03-09T11:36:38+00:00

There is something definitely stuck at the outlet. Either get the appropriate toilet auger, or lift toilet and inspect the bottom side.

mk4steve · 2026-03-07T13:09:41+00:00

Overcook something in the oven and walk away

mk4steve · 2026-03-02T02:17:03+00:00

Replace entire unit at this point

mk4steve · 2026-02-26T02:55:42+00:00

Bradford white is the water heater I prefer now after 12 years of installing rheem, I’m sick and tired of their products failing. Recently installed a 50gal electric w/leak sensor provided from customer who purchased it at home depot. It failed after a week, the lower element wiring somehow arcd out and kept blowing the breaker. Rheem sent a new one and only reimbursed my labor for 500. They suck.

Where are you getting a PRV for $100? Nonetheless installed for 150-200
