Collins you solved my problem, handman installed vacuum break in bakward postion and water was leaking, will go myself to reverse n hope will work, thanks again
For some reason the supply on mine keep leaking. Do you have any advice? My husband and I love your videos! You make it so easy to understand! Thank you!
The vacuum hose simply transfers the water from the faucet to the vacuum breaker. A vacuum breaker, commonly referred to as a backflow preventer, is a device that prevents the potable water in your salon/home from getting contaminated. A great in-depth explanation of why a vacuum breaker is necessary can be found here: structuretech1.com/2009/01/why-do-i-need-a-vacuum-breaker/
i had a new vacuum breaker installed and since then it is very hard to adjust the water tempreture as well there is much less water pressure Any ideas Thank you in advance
The vacuum breaker is simply a pass through device. It cannot regulate temperature. As with adding any thing in a water line, it might have some restriction? The vacuum breaker has far less restriction than the spray hose. Johnny
@@johnnychaffin307 got the same problem Water pressure is much less now I’m getting complain all the time.Anyone knows how to Increase pressure???Thank you!
@@denisq6194 The vacuum breaker is just a pass through device. You can verify the VB is NOT the issue by bypassing the VB temporarily. Just connect your spray hose directly to the faucet outlet. Also confirm the stops under the sink are fully open.
@@johnnychaffin307 So I look better and the Vacuum Hoses adapter has a smaller Hose then Water ones! it’s Definitely decrees the Flown off the Water.I’m going to replace with bigger diameter Hoses.
