Re: washers for water supply

Well,

Bought a new faucet and it solved that problem. It was about 6 years old and used daily so I think the valve was shot. Thanks for all the help again guys! :)

Re: washers for water supply

Hey guys, So replaced the shut-off valves and the water supply connections to the hot and cold with the Brasscraft products JD recommend. Had a bit of a leak on the COLD shut-off but that was fixed by tightening a bit more. However, now my faucet drips when I shut the cold water off at the faucet. I...

Re: washers for water supply

THAT'S the final piece of the puzzle JD! You rock! :D Now, I just had a thought...wouldn't it be ironic (and just my luck since I already cut everything off) if the washer inside of the new supply line was the ONLY ONE to fit and solve my original problem??? :roll: :shock: :roll: I think my head mig...

Re: washers for water supply

Thank JD, I think I will try those due to cost reasons. One thing I still need to know. How to replace this valve? Is there a similar 'push-in" type I can use and could you link me to one somewhere so I can see it? Thank you.

Re: washers for water supply

Greg,

I ended up cutting it all off. There was no way I could get it apart any other way. Here is the aftermath...lol. Also, the shut-off valve was flanged, but doesn't really seem THREADED to me. As you can see, I had to cut it all of with my Dremel.

Re: washers for water supply

Greg, I'm not sure either, but what I need to know now is, can I take just the top piece (slip-joint nut I think. Is this what it's called?) out and replace THAT, or do I have to take the entire piece of pipe off of the shut off valve and replace THAT? Also, does this all come in one piece somewhere...

Re: washers for water supply

Ok, so here are my shut-off valves under the sink. Are you saying I just need to replace the pvc piping form the shut-off valve to the sink on both? Does all of this come in one piece (or is the sink attachment separate (3rd pic) as well) and also how do I do I remove the old pieces and install the ...

washers for water supply

Hello forum, I am trying to find proprietary washers for my bathroom sink water intake. I am having no luck. I am pretty sure they must be proprietary because every similar washer I have tried does not fit correctly. The first pic shows my 2 washers in front with others I have tried behind it. The s...

Re: Nordyne MIMB 070A BW maintenance

Hi, Your return air comes through the filter and it stops dust or anything that could clog up the furnace or a-coil if you have a/c. No other filters besides the door one. Regular maintenance would be cleaning a/c a-coil once a year, filters every 30 days or so, having an hvac tech clean and servic...

Nordyne MIMB 070A BW maintenance

Hello, I have a Nordyne MIMB 070A BW furnace in my mobile home which I purchased in 1999. 1) I have yet to replace the filter that resides in the front door because it doesn't seem like it needs replacing (I have cleaned it on several occasions but it never really seemed dirty). Could you explain wh...
