Great for laundry tub
This works extremely well in my garage sink. The extended handles have solved my problem of trying to grip round knobs with oily or dirty hands to turn on the water. Installation was easy.

Good Sturdy Laundry Faucet
While remodeling our laundry room, I decided to replace our old laundry tub with a smaller one. The Danze Faucet was the perfect size and the paddle handles sealed the deal. The faucet was delivered timely, the installation was extremely easy and the faucet works like a dream. The hose thread spout has not been used, but it simply screws on the end of the faucet nozzle in place of the aerator. I would recommend this faucet to anyone, especially those looking for a more accessible faucet. (The paddles are very easy to move, but the faucet is very sturdy.)

Good utility faucet
Purchased for use on a utility sink in my garage. Faucet comes with two aerators; one of which has hose threading so you can hook a garden hose to the faucet. I've had it in use for about a month now, and have been very pleased with it.
Positives:
- level handles are easy to operate, particularly when your hands are greasy / slippery. - Excellent water throughput, good flow. - Easy installation
Negatives:
- Handles are easily moved, if you bump them it's easy to change the settings quickly
Overall, would recommend this to others.

Sent wrong item
The vendor was out of the faucet that I ordered so they just sent another without notice. 0 stars. The Amazon return process is awesome though.

Great Deep Sink Faucet
I've wanted this kind of faucet in my deep sink for years. I'd never seen it in a hardware store but thanks to Amazon, I found a faucet with threading on the spout and throws rather than twist handles. It's GREAT.

Customer Review :
Beware. Very poor quality. Do not buy "American" Standard products.
There was a time when American Standard used to be at the pinnacle of quality when it came to plumbing fixtures and products. Sadly, this is no longer the case. Like most American corporations quality is no longer the costly roadblock to massive profit. The faucet is manufactured in Mexico. It is made of mostly plastic material with very little brass in the faucet itself. The faucet I replaced was also an American Standard, made in the USA, and it lasted for 60 years. It weighed about 4 times as much, was solid, chrome plated brass, and could well work again if I could hunt down some small component for the cold water part of the faucet that finally wore out. I was really shocked at how cheap and flimsy its modern day predecessor felt out of the box. I truly felt ripped off and angry. I was tempted to return it but my mother had gone long enough without a fully working faucet in her laundry room. Also, with the free shipping, no sales tax, plus discount, I probably wasn't going to find a better faucet for the money. That is not to say it was worth the money I spent, because it wasn't. This faucet is JUNK.
I installed it, and it works fine, but I honestly don't expect it to last inside of 5 years. If you think products manufactured in China are low quality, Mexico is ten times worse. In fact, American Standard should change their name to "Mexican Standard." I am not singling out American Standard in favor of other brands, though some brands are in fact better. But this applies to American owned and controlled companies in general. If they want to build and sell junk, so be it. If they want to have integrity then they should build better products. But don't think a consumer like myself doesn't notice when you cut corners or send jobs over the border. You are not being competitive, you are being greedy. And someday that greed will catch up to you like rest of the American Economy. Quality and value: Two missing components from the majority of all American companies. The truth hurts as I am an American and a beneficiary of this trend as a consumer.

excellent product
This is my second faucet (that I am keeping) from Amazon.com. I bought the first one a while back and had to exchange it because the bottom plastic plate was all bent out of shape. After installation of the exchanged one, it worked without any problem. I replaced my old faucet because I was dripping water all around faucet in the process of turning the round knobs. It was the handles on this model that attracted me. Not only are the handles easier to turn (on and off), but you do not end up with water all over your faucet. I have one more utility sink and I will replace its faucet with this one as well. Highly recommended.

love this faucet
Easy on - easy off. A great laundry faucet. My old laundry faucet had standard knob handles that were impossible to turn on and off with wet, soapy hands. The new faucet solved the problem. Amazon had the best price and the delivery was free!

Great laundry faucet!
Have had this faucet on our laundry deep sink for several years already and it continues to perform as well as the day it was installed. Handles and spout are easy to clean. Faucet handles operate smoothly and are easy to adjust for comfortable water temperatures. There is no dripping when the water is turned off. Very pleased with this faucet - and the seller.

Questions & Answers
Question : i'm having a foul odour in my utility room. it is a new house and it is on a septic system.?
in the utility room there is a sewage pit that is not being used for sewage as the basement bathroom is not complete. the sewage pit is being used to collect condensation from the furnace/ac. the iron remover and water conditioner dump into it when flushing itself out periodically. there is a trap that is set up below the drain. the smell started about a month ago and occurrences were every 3 to 4 days. now it is every other day. the smell is mostly from ground level to just above ground level. it is heavily concentrated around the sewage pit. i had my plumber check it out and he resealed it and even applied extra silicone sealant but 12 hours later, the smell came back. i am baffled?!....and don't know what else to do. please help?!i've already tried to pour water in the trap. there is no odour coming from the trap.
Answer:
make sure that the septic vent pipe on the roof isn't plugged with leaves or a birds nest.

Question : can someone help me choose the right boiler for my house.?
i have had about 6 quotes and everyone is sugesting a different plan.the house currently has a potterton flamingo (old).open vent?system boiler.there are 4 medium sized double rooms on the top floor plus a bathroom with electric shower,bath,toilet and basin.on the ground floor there is 2 small lounges kitchen, shower room(thermostatic shower) +basin and also rear utility room, plumbed for washer etc.there are 10 rads throughout the house.NOW, do i need a regular boiler OR a combi?if regular ,which one?if combi which one?the reason i am putting this question out is:some installers say house too big/wrong shape for combi, so i need a worcester 18i , one said 18ri.the worcester website suggested combi worcester 37cdi,or 42cdi.one installer said i need a 30kw combi.i am confused.with all of this, once i recover from installing a new boiler ,i would like to convert the current attic into a room, so the boiler i think should be a little on the larger side so i dont have to replace it.also what happens if the boiler is too big for the house? is that possible?the house is in luton, built of bricks,i dont know what the u values are,there are lots of big windows!
Answer:
sounds like your hot water comes from your boiler so I guess one wants to separate the 2 from each other and install a boiler and a water heater and the other wants to keep it the way you have it now.I personally would want separate heaters and brake away from the combi. I guess the only thing about too big is the fuel cost,its over kill on the usage of fuel for your needs .

Question : Plumbing question - Hissing sound coming from water pipes?
I just bought a house that has been sitting empty for a few months. I had the water turned on today and when I turned on the "master" valves in my utility room, I noticed a hissing sound coming from the laundry closet. I think that means there is water running somewhere because the usage meter is slowly spinning around when no sinks or anything in use. The sound is kind-of loud. I checked back a few hours later and looked everywhere for leaks, including the outside fixtures, but I didn't see any. No moisture to be found. I don't know what else to do! I ended up shutting the water back off, just to make sure I don't flood the place.
Answer:
Sounds very much like a leak. They can very hard to find. Shut the water supply off and see what changes, and soon.Water damage is pernicious.

Question : My laundry room keeps slightly flooding when showers are take or washing machine is used!?
I'm not someone who is familiar with plumbing, so ill try to give the best description i can-bare with me.So, just as most laundry rooms, my washing machine drains into a utility sink. Underneath this utility sink is a square bowl-like mechanism which i have no idea what its for. At first, i thought the utility sink drained into this bowl-thing, but after watching the utility sink drain, and this bowl not filling up with the water, i assumed that it does not drain into this bowl. After discovering this, i became confused. I always thought that my slight flooding was because the utility sink was draining too much water in the bowl-thing, then the bowl-thing would overflow. So then I thought, could the utility sink drain into a normal pipe, and this square bowl-like thing is like an overflow for the pipe? I have no idea? So thats the setup of the whole drain problem. But now, ill talk about the problem exactly. So, basically what happens is somehow the bowl-thing gets filled (somehow), and then overflows on to the floor. This usually happens when a Large load of laundry is going, a long shower is taken, or when someone washes clothes at the same time someone is taking a shower. I dont know what to do! I've called a plumber to come out, but they're booked for over a week, and i just want to know what the problem might be so I can prepare myself for what the plumber has to say. Thanks for any help!Let me know if anyone needs more clarification.
Answer:
Sounds like the drain past the utility sink is partially clogged with hair from the shower and lint from the washer. You could buy something like Drain-o, or buy a medium sized bottle of dish soap like Joy or Dawn. Put a 1/4 of the bottle in the shower drain, 1/4 of the bottle in the utility tub drain. Don't mix it with water, just pour it in there right out of the bottle. Then let it sit there for about a half hour. After that time, pour a pail of water into the utility tub and let that drain. Then turn on the shower for a few minutes. See if that works. The dish soap will seep through any clog and lubricate what's stuck, so the force of the water can move the clog down the drain. Using a plunger can help this along too. You can also use a plunger. Close the drain or cover the drain to the shower and turn on the water. Let it build up a few inches. Then open the drain, and quickly use the plunger on the shower drain, using quick up and down motions. See if anything comes up through the drain, or if the water goes down faster. If none of that works then you may hav a clogged main drain outside of your house. A plumber will have to run a snake through the drain to clear out anything in there.

Question : What is a good price range estimate for completely re-plumbing/piping a house like this:?
The house has been vacant for 10+ years and has been stripped of its copper plumbing. Existing materials are also not up to code. Gas lines will need to be re-run, or if approved for an underground propane tank, propane lines will need to be run. We have not yet purchased the property, so it's difficult to get formal estimates. The home was originally built in 1920, and we plan on gutting the entire interior for a complete remodel.Columbus, OH area2300 Sq FtNew Floorplan:4 Bdrm, 2.5 Bath2-story, with finished attic; no basement; block crawl spaceAll Heating/Cooling Appliances on 1st Floor1st Floor: 28' x 36' (Kitchen, Formal Dining Room, Living Room, Formal Foyer, 1/2 Bath, Utility Room)2nd Floor: 28' x 30' (Master Suite w/Master Bath, Bedroom 2, Bedroom 3, Bedroom 4, Full Bath)Attic: 15' x 30' (Den/Office, Storage)Gas/Propane HeatGas/Propane StoveElectric Water HeaterCentral A/C (Electric)Electric Washer/DryerHome is a city-purchase in a Historic Restoration area for less than $10K.

Answer:
Get a few qualified General Contractors to come give you some bids. If you need to ask these questions, and you are not experienced enough to have an idea what these repairs would entail, then this may not be the best house for you... unless you are getting it for free!Talk with the Real Estate Broker, I'm sure they would allow you to schedule some contractors to come look at it with you... they would be interested in what the Contractors have to say, too.

Question : Can you hook a washer up to a clean out pipe?
Our house was built in 1955 so the current washer hook up is in the kitchen. The newly remodeled utility room has room for a washer but doesn't have the right plumbing hook ups and drains. A plumber told us he could run a pipe from the washer into a pipe in the ground right outside the room (I think it is the "clean out".) Is this kosher? Do I need to get a city building permit first to do this? Otherwise, can we just let our washer drain into the yard to water the grass? I've heard about that before...Thanks.
Answer:
no, dont run it into the yard......yes u do need to get a permit and tell the plumber u want one and yes he can go straight into the waste pipe.that is what goes into the sewer..lic. gen. contractor

Question : Plumbing problems in house I'm renting, what should I do?
Yesterday morning, about 12:30am, 3/5/09, I told the landlord that the bathroom in the basement backed up through the drain in the floor and came out into the family room by about a foot. He said he'd come over this weekend. This morning again at about 12:30am, it backed up again. I had started the washer before it started. This time it came out further into the family room, went into my son's room, so much that it splashes, and it went under the wall to the utility room. I couldn't get ahold of the landlord by phone, so I looked him up on msn.com and went driving to find his house at 1am. He didn't want to come over, but I told him I was upset and concerned. He came over, but he said he didn't have to turn the water off, if no one would use the water again until he gets one of his friends to come over from Roto Rooter or something. He says if it's my fault, we will have to talk. I didn't stuff anything down the toilet or anything. He told me that when I moved in that there were plumbing problems in that bathroom occassionally. I've lived here for 11 months with some problems with the sink and toilet upstairs, that's all. I've never had plumbing problems like this in my 49 years of life, most of my life I've been in rentals. After I signed the contract here, they told me they wouldn't fix a broken window, the circuit overloads and they refuse to fix it, when I moved in, the phone outlets wouldn't work, and many other small problems. What should I do? I don't think I owe him a dime and I've never been a day late on my rent and the house I've taken care of(keeping it picked up and all.
Answer:
the sewer pipe is clogged, It won't be your fault, there is probably tree roots in the pipe, that's what exactly happened to me , my house is about 50 years old the pipes are about 3 feet long and tiny tree roots get in and decrease the size of the pipe at those joints so when you flush tp and stuff it takes a while to drain. make a list of things your slum lord needs to fix, and talk to someone who is familiar with the landlord and tenant act in your area asap, that water that is backing up is sewer water. and can make you and your family sick,good luck and be assertive about the sewer not being your fault, it's going to cost him allot of money to get it repaired properly and a roto is a quick fix and it won't be long before it is clogged again maybe a few weeks. good luck p.s you can run your wash or use your toilets any time you want, even at 1;30 am your land lord needs to move his butt to rectify this prolom and shutting off the water for 2 days is not acceptable

Question : Who is legally responsible for the damage after plumbing incident?
Okay here's the story. A pump that goes with the bathroom in the basement failed to kick in and it made a mess in the utility room and basement living room: sceptic backup they call it. A plumber came in to fix it (through the company that rents my house out), a cleaning company was also called in to clean the soiled rug, all at great expense to me. Then I used my house myself for a couple of weeks but did not use the basement bathroom. Then new renters came in and immediately, sceptic backup again meaning the pump has to be fixed again and the cleaning company has to be called in again. Who is responsible for this 2nd incident?? I am furious. The rental company wants me to pay for the whole deal again!!Also, the renters had to be moved out and so I'm losing $1100 (minus rental fees) for that too.
Answer:
The owner of the house is ultimately responsible for any damage to a property not caused by the tenants. That means that you, or your insurance company, may have to pay now. But you can later sue the plumber and the property management company for the costs associated with the second incident, provided that you have proof of an inadequate repair. Be sure to get an affidavit from the tenants, backing up your argument, and you will also need photos for the damage caused to your property. It would be great if you could get some evidence of other botched jobs the plumber has done, but that may not be possible. Just as an aside: If it were me, and the repairs have already been done in the second instance, I'd find myself a new property management company, then let the original company go through the time, effort and cost of suing ME. You may find that they just don't want to go to the trouble and will "write it off". I'm sure the property management company has insurance for just such matters. Good luck.

Question : downstairs bathroom in utility room?

Question : Is my washing machine supposed to have a trap in drain like under the sink??
My washing machine drain pipe is like the one under my sink. Its not just a straight pipe, it has that trap thing on it, and for some reason, it keeps getting clogged. I rented a drain snake last spring and managed to pull w glob of thread/twine up out of the drain. Once again my washing machine drain pipe is clogged and running water all over the floor. Its like a swimming pool in my utility room. My dad rigged everything in this house and the washing machine drain goes into a concrete floor, but has one of those trap looking things on it. Is that supposed to be there? Dad did the best he could, but some of the things he rigged have cost me a fortune to fix right. Any suggestions on how to get this pipe to stop clogging. I already stuck a drain snake into the pipe but it is getting hung up in the trap or whatever you call that squiggly pipe and I cannot get it unclogged.I think I may have to hire a plumber today or hang the hose out the window to drain the washer. Help!
Answer:
Sigh,,, I know the feeling,,, Did DAD also install the MAIN plumbing,,,before the slab was poured? His intentions were all GOOD by the way. If the house was built by a contractor who used a PLUMBING contractor, then some type of P trap should have been inline at the time the slab was poured, to eliminate sewer gas back up. If the P trap is visible and accessable, measure the pipe diameter, get a piece that size from a home repair store, and a "collar" / fitting, to secure the new section to the old, straightened out. Is the plumbing PVC or ??? Insert the washer drain hose and relax.Rev. Steven
