Taco zone valve leaking water 

Steve lav is the best damn plumber on the eastern seaboard.. much love goes out to you for taking time out of your busy day to make these highly educational and entertaining videos.. from a fellow plumber it dont get better than this.. quality service

Sad to say, but my wife is more interested in Miss Molly than she is in your plumbing skills. Next level!

Lav is workin again yall

Nice repair Steve. That zone head is not a leaker anymore.

Steven, thank you for taking the time to create and publish this video. Your video allowed me to know what to anticipate and expect when considering the exact same scenario for my heating system. I was a little concerned about prying the bellows out of the Taco housing but after watching your process in the video, I got right on it with a little extra “umph” and bam everything popped out just like in your video. The process of replacing the internals of the Taco valve was a lot easier than soldering a new one in place. Thanks again.

81k subs!! Steve is a real working man yall.

That boiler replacement job might be a nice video to watch. Steve got 2 jobs. The day job and the RU-vid job. :-). Thanks Steve. God Bless.

Holy heck, I love watching these videos...

Thank you Sir ! I'm going to call you "Santa Plumber" I'm watching this on Christmas Day 2022 You just answered a question I had about replacement of the zone bellows that has been difficult to find the answer to , knowledge is one of the greatest gifts one can give and you just gave that to me , my utmost respect and thanks to you !

Good vid Stevie Boy ...I noticed Miss Molly doesn't work on weekends ... She's such a diva ... Lol ... Appreciate the time and effort you put into these vids ...

great work steve!

She's leaker Momma... Another nice job Steve! Give Miss Molly a biscuit for me!

Wow, was that a vintage green power head on the right? Old school mama!

Great job as usual!

Nice 👌 work my friend 🙊 nice work 👍

Good job

AWESOME VIDEO!

Nice to have a system where you can actually bleed the zones out. I’ve seen a lot of them that or not set up

4 chubby mama's boys thumbed this video down because they thought it was about taco bell. Thanks Steven!

How can anyone thumbs down? He is the best to watch!!!!!

Steve would it be easier on original install to put a ball vavle in before and after each zone valve so you don't have to bleed each zone? I like to do it on anything that needs to be replaced, circulators, zones vavles, pumps, ect. I like how you did this to show tech you can change the bellows in a situation if needed. Purge staion is good to have. Great video thank you Steve. HVAC ON!!!!

Thanks for the video. I've got one of these leaking as well. Tried to pull the valve seat assembly and just the stem came out. Can't figure out how to get the rest out. Please tell me I dont have to replace the whole valve. Lol. Very tight spot and would probably need to redo a section of pipe for it.

Hey Steve I bought a new water heater tune up kit n pilot won't stay on. I even bought a new thermostat n still nothing. What can be the problem?

Try to get us some shawts

Does the zone need to be drained, or will vacuum pressure hold back most of the water?

I have the same Valves and there calling for too much heat. Thermostat changes and still too much heat. Thinking a valve stuck open?

At 13.46 when he starts counting doesn't he sound like batman lol

The thumbs downs are because he didn't sell them 5 new zone valves, a circulator, oil tank, and an air conditioner. Oh I forgot new windows!

Taco Zone. sheesh. And I thought this was about a repair in the barrio.

How much would that set me back if I need that job done?

Hello .I have questions: today replaced taco valve head . The problem before I didn’t have the 24v coming to my thermostat after installation the new head I finally got the 24v and my nest t stat started charging but the valve looks like stays open and temperature on the t star is 78 F over set point 70 F and I think I need to replace the base valve now so the question is do I need to drain the water in the boiler room or can I just shut the service valve before the taco valve in my apartment and drain the radiators then replaced the valve?

Great stuff Steve but guy why you wear those damn blue gloves what's up with that?

….as you said....it would have been easier just to change the valve

She's a leaker folks

If someone can't fix it call on Old Timer's Plumbing guarnteed one day service or we won't charge for the repairs..

I see a reality show COMMING. This ones a real crusty shit show.

Yee Gads, what does it cost to run that battleship steam system?

Very interesting....My zone valves are up so high, I can never really look at that valve body while replacing the electrical units. But, have always wondered what would happen if it sprung a leak or the valve jammed closed/open....Nice to know the guts can be replaced without trying to break/resolder those joints...Is the retainer (square part that the screws go through) plastic or metal...Mine seem like they are plastic, hope not...Doesn't seem like the plastic could hold that spring loaded valve in place very well... Wish my system had the drains like that. I'll swear that most of my low heat output issues are probably due to air in the pipes even though it has been bled out a few times...

She's a leakah mamma...

No dog? I'm outta here. Just joking. Same valve, same leak. This give a good look at what's in there and potential cause of the leak (corrosion / poor o-ring seat). Thanks.

3rd again

What is he working on? Taco zone??? Why all the valves? What are the things on top of the valves? I'm confused. Is this some kind if radiant heating system??? Oopsy. Nevermind. Found this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jv2hRf9Zilc.html
