Go to HOME DEPOT and talk to the guy in the cabinet department, they carry all you need to build your diswasher cabinet. Extension, diswasher end base and countertop. Still you need electrical outlet, hot water line (Diswasher only works with hot water) and drain.

Shut off hot water valve and remove supply line. Slowly open valve to test for pressure, if not pressure, remove valve stem and see what you find wrong there. If pressurized, check supply line, blowing it to make sure is open. If line is open then you have to deal with the faucet.

If this new shower is going to be discharging to your actual sewer line, this part must be connected to a U or trap below the floor. Drain rules may call for all drains to be traped to avoid gases from surfacing.

Do you mean outside shower?. The shown PVC drain part look like a 3 inches one, more than enough for draining your future shower. Make sure it is flushed to the floor and pitch the floor toward the drain.

Why does this happen?....Low capacity water heater tank. Water heater temperature set too low, allowing you to open hot water side of shower full blast. Rise temperature of water heater or shut water off after getting wet when showering and on again...you got the idea.

Seek help from your city housing department.

Low price? I found good reliability in LAMOSA from home depot.

Also check the lowerflow hole, remove scrwed cover. Use a 4 to 5 inches piece of wire with a 1/4 inche folded at the end to remove hairs from these hole. This in addition to the overflow " as posted".

I wont recommend chemicals for drain cleaning, instead, if you own a wet and dry vacuum use it to sucks the troubling matters out. It is cheap, cleaner and safer. If that fails, you have a big trouble that requires a pro to deal with it.

Sure you should be concerned, call the plumber back...

There is not supposed to be flame at the base of the thermocouple or pilot line. It sounds like you have a leak in each case. Since thermocouple carry no gas, leak has to be located at pilot line bases. Make sure bases are not loose. If unable to do it by yourself, shut off gas valve and call...
