water leak in upstairs bathroom

by Jake

I have many times gone into the upstairs (near the shower) bathroom and found the hot water tap freely running. Every time I do, i turn off the supply valve from underneath, because the problem is that the faucet valve is not sealing and is likely continuing to run even when people shut it off. this is basic maintenance that's not happening. The cost of running hot water continuously is primarily energy, because the hot water heater is burning natural gas (or is it electricity?) to heat fresh drinking water that's then being sent down the drain. The solution is to re-valve or replace the hot water faucet in the upstairs bathroom so it shuts off properly. -jake ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Wed, 4 Apr 2018 23:26:53 -0700 (PDT) From: Jake <jake(a)spaz.org> To: discuss(a)lists.omnicommons.org, building(a)lists.omnicommons.org Subject: water leak in upstairs bathroom i feel like i wrote this email a while ago but i'm not sure. the bathroom in the corner of the upstairs bathroom (next to the kitchen) hot water faucet is leaking, flowing openly continuously, unless it is vigorously forced off. This does not happen. when i go into that bathroom (which is not often) i see that the hot water is just flowing. Because the seal in the valve is worn out. So i turned off the service valve under the sink to turn off the water to the faulty valve. But someone else turns it back on. and then people leave the water on. Omni has probably used thousands of gallons and hundreds of dollars in water alone, not to mention the wasted energy and money of heating all that hot water that's then flowing into the sewers. I am not going to replace the valve, but i'm here to point out the problem and hopefully someone will fix it. If not, i'll block off the pipe since it's something I know how to do, but it would be a waste of effort since it needs to be repaired properly anyway. will someone please confirm they'll take care of this? -jake

The reports are also being logged here: https://asylumseekerscaravan.org. Who is Jessie Sandoval? Jessie is a sister in struggle from Nicaragua, that I met and worked with during Occupy. She went to Mexico a couple days ago in support of the Asylum Seekers sisters and brothers, and she is already sending reports on her Facebook account. Her writing is blant, poetic, unapologetic, etc. I like her writing. Before I go.. a quote from one her post from last night.

Failed Payment Alerts

by Jenny Ryan

Lack of email reminders to members has been an issue for awhile now. It occurred to me that perhaps this was just a Stripe setting - seems it was! So now members will be notified by email when their payment fails, and notified 1 month in advance of an expiring card. https://stripe.com/docs/receipts#failed-payment-alerts Is this problematic to anyone? CC'ing some CCL folks who've mentioned this before.

Omni Commons wifi is unavailable

by Sierk

There was a (neighborhood wide?) power outage this morning. Unfortunately, after power came back online, WiFi did not. There is no Omni Commons ssid available (I checked in several locations through the Omni). Also unfortunately, nobody present knows how to resolve things. FYI, in case relevant, I believe that (internet access via) the modem came back online after the outage (because the relevant lights on the modem seem to be flashing correctly, as far as I can tell.) I've been told (but have not verified) that (at least some) wired connections here do have internet access. Sierk
