The Grumpy Plumber gets pretty Happy talking about water splashing on his butt

Can you do a video to raise the water level in the bowl? We just installed an Ove bidet and the water level is too low.

[@leonardhandzlik6008]

Well, if cost is a factor, it is a bidet , hands down. I've got an add-on bidet on my toilet that I bought on Amazon for about $40. It works just great. It uses the cold water, but believe me, it doesn't feel that cold on your butt. As for the Toto Washlet, you are talking about $300-400 for the toilet seat depending on features. The Toto Washlet toilet is about $1400. As I see it, the object is to clean your butt, and my $40 bidet does just fine.

I use to work at Honda plants had bidets at head quarters

[@billy2bob63]

You didn’t talk about the prices of both of these! $$$$$$$$

[@urabundant]

Maybe the Grumpy Plumber is grumpy because he didn't have one growing up.

Hey Grumpy i just had the water shut off on my Delta SBS faucet. I was using it on hot filling the sink to shave and it just stopped. Lol No water at all hot or cold but definitely have water going to the valve. Can you please explain this problem so i can fix it?

Hi there Mr Jim, I brought a luxe 320 with need of hot water. I hooked the cold up from the toilet but hot is under sink and was so rusted the valve cracked at connection but shut off still works thank God. But I have to replace the hot water valve don't know how to cut off hot water tank flow to do it. Even if I find a key somewhere to shut off city to house isn't the hot water tank still full once I take the valve off? I don't have $350 quoted so I must do it myself. How do I shut off hot water tank???😢 PLEASE HELP

Are they the same thing as the three sea shells on the movie Demolition man? 🐚🐚🐚

Ok hot water heater girl from river Rouge again...both thermostats are set the same 125, (electric heater) we took the top element out it was fried, put new one in and filled it up yesterday after about 6 hours the water was hot I washed a load of clothes. the next day no hot water again...fried top element again. I have a well with a pump. My old heater was a whirlpool and it lasted 25 years...never no problems filling or heating..ever!! Wth is going on!! Now, another new element, filling tank and took one wire of the elements so they are not on (my friends Idea) I don't understand why the tank wouldn't be full enough to cover top element 😢 my old one filled fine 😞 crap!!

[@michaelfarris2556]

So, is this cold water splashing on your backside?

[@NorthwoodsPiper]

And you you don’t like either of those ideas maybe Ming Ling down at the Chinese restaurant can advise you better😉

Thanks for recommending a toilet closet auger for a clog. It worked great and no need for a plumber. But ouch ! $73 at Home Depot.
