Wolf appliances quality issues?
Comments (27)Canbon, here's what I would do: 1 - Stay far away from the dealer who told you that the Wolf line is rife with problems and that there is sabotage going on. The dealer is probably on a credit hold with the Wolf distributor and can't get product right now. I have been told that there are a bunch of dealers in the Clark region who are in this position. And the fact that they are giving you a 2 year old article from Associated Content (where anyone and everyone is an expert!) speaks volumes. 2- Yes Wolf/Sub has had labor probs at one of their plants but from what I've been told they are being resolved and in order for there to be some grand conspiracy to ruin products you would need ALOT of people involved...plus if we are talking about some grand conspiracy on GardenWeb right now, don't you think that Wolf would have known about this first and nipped it in the bud awhile ago? 3- If you visit any other dealer showrooms and you find them pushing you to one brand and disparaging another, take what they have to say with a grain of salt. Every line has plusses and minuses. A responsible dealer should illustrate both sides to you and then furnish you with enough information for you to make an educated decision. If they are pushing or badmouthing, walk. They are puppets to their spiff checks. 4- Amcook's advice about re-visiting the distributor showroom is solid. They won't push b/c they don't sell. Wolf appliances are expensive, but they are built like friggin' tanks, they perform wonderfully, they look nice and they make a statement. Bottom line is that I have 100% confidence in the Wolf brand. So much so that if my mom or my wife asked me for new appliances, and knowing that I would be knocked upside the head if I steered them wrong, Wolf would be my #1 go-to brand. They rock!...See MoreWater quality issues
Comments (2)Hardness leaves white, crusty depeosits, poor soap (lather) quality, dry skin, etc. Most of what you are describing sounds like iron or manganese. Iron leaves a variety of red, brown and tan colors. My guess is that your city is using phosphates (poly-, bi-) in their treatment. Get a MUNICIPAL WATER TREATMENT REPORT. Find out what's in their water and how they are treating it....See MoreWater Quality Issue
Comments (0)OK, let's see if anyone can figure this out: I recently inherited a wood frame farmhouse in SE Victoria county, Texas, that I grew up in, built in 1914. It didn't have running water until the 1950s from what I can tell, and a new water well was drilled to 140' deep about six years ago. I moved a new mobile home onto the property a few months ago to live in while I renovate the old house. Now here's the mystery: the water in the old house smells and tastes fine, and always has. But the water in the mobile home has a sulfur smell to it (tastes fine, but smells). The water to both structures comes from the same well through the same pump and the same holding tank. Why, then, does the water in the mobile home smell, and the water in the house doesn't?...See MoreHydroponics help - NFT system issue
Comments (2)I think you'll need another straight hose from your Tee pictured on the bottom, connected to the top portion. If you don't know what i mean let me know ill draw a diagram. The overflow valve if done properly won't affect flow until the pump is off. I would recommend not going with an overflow valve because if doesnt keep water in the lines, in effect pressure in the lines. Put some shutoffs for when you need to do maintenance....See Moremorb1lee
