The push/pull type valves that are installed in the house in The Villages should be eliminated by code in new construction. Problem solved in the long run for the most part. What’s next? When you buy a new washer the delivery won’t include hooking up the washer hoses. Next they will leave the appliance on the front yard because they would be liable if they ruin your hardwood floors. Customer service is just about non-existent. The stores should include in their price whatever it takes to make the appliance useable or let you know upfront that you have to hire an additional person to finish the job. There are aged widows and widowers who can’t do these so called simple jobs.
