You can save yourself considerable time by installing a hot water 'mixer' valve which is designed to solve just this problem. I tried the foam bit. It only lasted a couple of days, then the foamI had followed the directions very carefully. 'mixer' valve] will be more permanent.

I lived in a house that had already had one of those special mixerI had to run almost straight hot water to it, because it takes so long to get hot water through the line to the WC tank.  just got tired of paying the extra bucks for hot water and got one of those kits that go on the bottom outside of the tank which collects and drains the condensation off. I had the same problem, my tank sweated every winter.  swapped out toilets [for] about 200$.  This toilet has a pressure tank in it inside the water tank.   I solved the problem and got a nice toilet at the same time. The bathroom is the most humid place in the house because of takingDon't flush the toilet after taking a bath or shower. Try this and see if it works out OK. It is possible that the cold water going into the toilet tank while the air is moist in the bathroom is causing the tank to sweat. After a while the water in the tank should settle to the room temperature.

If you don't have a bathroom exhaust fan, maybe one should be installed to remove the moist air from the room. if you have a forced air heating system, and there is a register in the bathroom, open it wide and turn on the furnace fan to circulate the air out of the room. This should be done with the door partially open so that the air can escape from the room. It might not hurt to turn on the furnace also so that warm air can circulate through the bathroom and you will beHot Tub With Most Powerful Jets fairly comfortable upon exiting the tub or shower.Female Rottweiler Puppies For Sale California If you have a hot water baseboard heating system, then you will probablyCats For Sale In Dundee Area

Because of that, he was trained as a child to stick to the “if it’s yellow let it mellow if it’s brown flush it down” mantra. We’re married and live in an area that doesn’t have any water issues at all. In fact, we live near an immense reservoir. My husband still sticks to that same mantra, but now he claims it’s to save money. I can’t find any evidence one way or another when it comes to this concern. I can’t believe it would save much money at all.

I’m surprised how often I’m asked this question. It must be something that comes up pretty frequently in marriages and relationships. Interestingly, it’s almost always the guy who lets the “yellow mellow” and it’s almost always his female partner complaining and saying it doesn’t save that much. The big question, of course, is how much does it save? The national average for a gallon of water is 2/10ths of a cent per gallon. Many municipalities also charge sewer rates based on water usage, so to compensate for that, we’ll calculate it at a rate of 3/10ths of a cent per gallon. The average amount of water used in a flush has varied over time. Toilets from the 1950s use as much as eight gallons per flush. Over time, the total amount per flush has gone down drastically. Currently, the average toilet manufactured today uses about 1.5 gallons per flush. Since many people aren’t necessarily using brand new toilets, I’ll calculate the average at two gallons of water use per flush.

So, how many times does a person flush per day? A recent AWWARF study indicates the average person flushes a toilet 5 times per day. And a survey that I saw recently indicates that the average person has 1.5 “brown” flushes per day. We have our data – now let’s do the math. If Jennifer’s husband flushed every time he used the toilet for a year, that would be five flushes per day times 365 days, equaling 1,825 flushes. Each flush uses two gallons of water, meaning he would use 3,650 gallons of water in a year. Each gallon of water used costs Jennifer and her husband 3/10ths of a cent, so the total cost for a year’s worth of normal flushing is $10.95. Under the “if it’s yellow let it mellow if it’s brown flush it down” philosophy, that would add up to 1.5 flushes per day times 365 days, equaling 547.5 flushes in an average year. Each flush uses two gallons of water, so he would use up 1,095 gallons. Each gallon of water used costs 3/10ths of a cent, so the total cost under this philosophy for a year’s worth of flushes is $3.29.
