Handy-Man Corner
I'm tired of bad Chiefs news.....


I thought it would be a good idea for a thread on the Handy-Man.

Do you have any Home remedies, gadgets you've made, advice on car repair, home maint, sollutions to kill weeds in your yard, bugs in your garden?

Use Coke to clean your batteries? That type of stuff.
Home made floor dry?

A tee fitting. The pressure going into the filter is good.

Any chance the filters are upside down?

This is the one to avoid. The water sure is good though.

It might be unavoidable when you're running it through that many filters. If you stack several micro allergen filters into your furnace you'll kill your airflow, don't see why it wouldn't be any different with water.

Is the water supply line one of those auto shutoff safety valve? Sometimes if the pressure is to good it shuts off the valve inside.

It could just be a turd.


I installed a WashIt brand detergentless system for our washing machine. http://www.washit.com It appeared idiot proof to install but I couldn't seem to figure it out. It was only a cold in warm in cold out line. I couldn't get it to work. Plug it in run cold water and it should go.

Short answer is I convinced the local shop that sold it that I didn't do it wrong after they came out. We replaced it with a new unit and it worked fine. That unit was just a dud.

We really like the detergenless system btw. Uses no soap and cloths smell good. Takes the sour smell out of wash cloths and towels too.

Also I would remove the supply line and reconnect to make sure it seated correctly. For some reason your not getting water to that filter my guess is its the compression fitting not seated correct.

It has the connections where you just push them in and it locks the tubing into a socket.

Maybe a defective device.

Have you gone to the manufacturers website? I look in support and any trouble shooting that sounds like your problem.

I know it seems crazy but most likely is something in a connection that is keeping you from getting enough water to the filter.

Can you disconnect supply line and turn water on and see if its getting good water pressure like into a bucket or something.

Oh yeah. It rebounded into my face.

I'm thinking I might just disconnect it and take it back. Lowes never hassles me on returns.

Unless you're on well water you don't need anything elaborate. Just buy a standard 2.5" x 9.75" water filter housing.

The housing looks like this and is Size 1:

http://www.purewaterproducts.com/standard-housings

The faucet looks like this:

http://www.purewaterproducts.com/ledge-faucets

This filter cartridge will filter out all the nastiness, including chloramines. It will last for 20,000 gallons.

http://www.purewaterproducts.com/products/fc020

I've been using a similar setup to this for years and it's been great.

You can buy the housing and faucet at any home improvement place, this is just the place I buy the filter media. The KDF85 media along with CATALYTIC carbon is the key to the purest water and long life.

I took that thing back. I didn't read any reviews before I bought it, which would have clued me in beforehand. Whirlpool says you should have a 2 qt per minute flow at 60 psi, and that's the max flow you'll get out of their filtration system. Supposedly because the epa requires the water to contact filter surfaces for a given amount of time. Anyway, I doubt I was getting a half a quart per minute, and it's a super common problem. Don't ever buy one of these piles of crap.
