Drain, Waste & Vent System | Off Grid Homestead Build Ep19Pt2 | The ShabinLife
Hey Everyone,
Hope all is well...
Here is Part 2 in the Off Grid Homestead Build Mechanical Series: Drain Waste & Vent System Walk Thru. Stay tuned for the PEX Video next. Thanks for watching!
ShabinLife RU-vid Channel:
Welcome to the ShabinLife channel here on RU-vid!
We’re Dayna & David and we're excited to share our homestead journey with you. We currently own a home on a 1/4 acre in a suburb of Pennsylvania & have been trying to maximize usage of our small plot to it’s fullest potential. In 2016, after dreaming for years of owning enough land to live a more simple and sustainable, self sufficient lifestyle, we acquired 18 Acres & began the journey of building our future homestead! Our land is quite far from where we currently reside which limits our trips to the property to once a month or so. For the time being we post new videos (or at least try, lol) once a month with updates on how things are moving forward, our pits and peaks as well as sharing all the priceless info we’ve learned from the amazing channels we subscribe to here on RU-vid. Please join us on our ShabinLife adventure as we continue Living Simple & Loving Nature.

I usually am NOT a fan of videos where the work is already completed and the person is attempting to explain what he or she did, HOWEVER, I have to say your video is, by far, the best "explanation after the work is completed" video I have ever seen in all my many, many years watching and trying to learn on RU-vid. I understand now, EXACTLY, how I will be plumbing my tiny cabin/house after watching this video. You are the FREAKING MAN, for real, for real! Thanks a million for this one!

@shabinlife Год назад

Keoni, thanks so much for the message and kind words, greatly appreciated... especially after a rough day of work off grid!! I'm glad the DWV video was helpful & wish you all the best on your build. Thanks again & have a great weekend!

@joshuagreen9458 Год назад

as a plumber u dont need that 3" vent for that water closet. u could have dropped the water closet 90 a little lower and rasied your main and go into a combo or wye 45 on its side and then used the vent on the shower vent as your water closet ventas it is close enough. also idk where u are located but in co u dont need 1/4" grade on 3" pipe you only need 1/8" grade.

@travelndan 3 месяца назад

Let’s say, you wanted to relocate a kitchen sink from closer to the bathroom plumbing to where you have the sink now. How would you get the sink drain line to the main drain (I hope I’m using the right terms) I think the drain line would be about 8’ from the wall where the sink is going to be Just cut, and insert a combo wye w/long sweep? Haven’t been able to find any videos that show how to tap into the main drain

@donho3617 2 года назад

The inspector made us insulate all red Pex whether in the crawl space or in the wall. Also would not all a horizontal line like he did in the kitchen. Also had to put clean outs on all drains.

@charliejohnston1978 Год назад

Thank you for the brilliant explanations. and no one else does such a great job of showing us and giving dimensions for each piping connection. The lighting is great and you don't whiz by something or skip over something. Very well done, please continue to show us amateurs how you are doing the waste lines, no one else even tries to do a good job, as you have done. Thanks again QED The only question I had was, it looks like you concreted the bottom of the crawl space , why was that done, it is nice though and you can stand up in there, not many like that..

@shabinlife Год назад

Hey Charlie, thanks so much for the message & my apology for the delayed response. I'm a bit of an amateur as well (at least in the area of plumbing, lol) so I'm really glad this video has been so helpful to everyone. We poured a slab in the crawlspace for a couple reasons... most importantly for ucc code when using superior walls as well as moisture control. However, it's been very helpful in regards to working down there as well as holding a small bit of storage. Hope this helps a bit & thanks again for the kind words. Have a great weekend!

@yanethczech9883 Год назад

amazing explanation and visual (as a teacher) I give t an A+++. I have plumbing issues, so I was researching trying to understand the plumbing system in a visual, so I can understand what the plumber is talking about. The plumbing industry has its own vocabulary so when a plumber explains with their vocab terms a regular customer, like me, has no clue what he is talking about. This video helped me to visualize and ask the right questions before I decide to spend thousands of dollars. Thank you!!!! God bless you and your family.

@glynismarshall9689 4 месяца назад

I really like how you broke down everything you were explaining and the time you took going downstairs so we could get a clear understanding of each part you were talking about before moving on to the next thing; even when they were in the same room. And... you did it without editing & splicing your video. I felt like I was walking around your house with you. I wish I was because I would've loved to pick your brain. My mom is having her drains redone & because I have work a little in construction, I was picked to be the one to talk to the crew. They put a 3" drain in for the kitchen sink. I thought it was supposed to be smaller. Because of what the head guy originally had told me about what was part of her original problem. But, the crew used the 3" anyway. When I asked about it, he said it would be fine. Please tell me what you think. I'm hoping to find out before the inspection & concrete for fixing the floor is scheduled.

@petergriffin1546 11 месяцев назад

Clean and nice work. Some ideas...They make a spacer for the toilet flange so you can set it to the floor height and install prior to finish floor. "Tile buddy". That LVL have screws or bolts? Seal up the holes. no cheapo fan for bathroom. I would run the vent in kitchen to near the top of roof. Perfect place for ice dam and if a metal roof could tear it off with ice or snow. cleanout near exit point.

@madman432000 6 месяцев назад

Nice crawlspace, sweep up that concrete and you can roll around with a shop creeper for doing any maintenance. Wish I could do mine that way. Oh, never mind, looks like you are standing upright in there.

@bobbenoit8470 Год назад

First of all, thankyou for taking the time to create this video. Secondly, in my opinion you did a good job on the plumbing layout and connections. I'm a licensed builder but not a licensed plumber but here in SC I am allowed to do all my own framing, plumbing, electrical, and hvac work on this new home I am building. I watched your video because I had a few questions regarding plumbing vents. Some of the comments were helpful but a few I disliked because they came across as condescending.... eg.- the one fellow that criticized your gluing and purple priming work. Basically, he was justifying the exorbitant charges to his customers because he could prime and glue pvc perfectly. I smell bullshit.... I'm sure he was a "union" plumber.... You are just like most people, wanting to save money- that's great! Nothing wrong with that at all! I've reached the conclusion that the differences of opinion are due to differences of code ( UPC vs International code), what region of the US you live, and if you are from Canada vs the US. Believe it or not, in SC, in most bathrooms you can put all the fixtures on a 1 1/2" vent. I know that for a fact because I talked to a local plumber who's been doing rough ins for 40 years. They go by international code here. Thats not to say I would do it that way, but thats the minimum ( based on the average bathroom llayout). I'm sure on larger bathrooms it would be 2 or 3 inch. I won't go less than 2 inch vent for a bathroom. If your on a tight budget though it would be okay

@shabinlife Год назад

Bob, thanks so much for your message, greatly appreciated!! Definitely comes down to some differences in code for sure (especially since we passed with flying colors, lol). Plus, I'd like to see those guys/girls applying primer to pipe in a dark crawlspace, in the middle of winter at 0 degrees outside... something's tells me theirs might be a bit messy too 🤣! Thanks so much for checking out the channel & hope you have a great weekend!! Stay well.

@vinnygoombatts1458 2 года назад

Where I live the toilet flange sits on TOP of the finish floor. Also the vanity drain requires a later line not a direct sanitary tee fitting. You have a "S" trap, like the kitchen sink line you did. Also you can vent the whole bathroom with the 3" line, you don't have to vent each fixture separately. Drain lines on a 3" vent can be 10ft away, 2" can be 6-8ft away, 1 1/2 6ft away or less. Great looking job though.

@shabinlife 2 года назад

Thanks for checking out the channel Vinny & thanks for the info, always appreciated.

@samteacheats7177 2 года назад

in Connecticut the same way .. that 3inch can vent the whole bathroom. toilet elbow should of been a long pattern 90.

@worldview730 2 года назад

Great tip. I have a stand-up shower that is approximately 6-8 feet away from my toilet and don't have a viable way to vent it. But with your advice I feel more confident that I can use the exiting toilet vent to do that, thanks.

@CookinwithChris86 2 года назад

In reality really your flange should be flush with your finished floor..or at least kind of considering tile installation...but really the flange should not be popping out considering every toilet from the bottom is not the same all the way so u have to be careful it rock

I am so very glad I came across your channel! My eldest son and I are starting the plumbing on my shed to home conversion (640 sq ft) and even though I have been learning everything I can about plumbing, it has been so daunting. I planned all of my plumbing fixtures on one wall to make it easier, but this project is so out of my comfort zone, I find it scary to actually start - but I will! Your video is the only one that I have found that walks you back and forth between the pipes inside and underneath, and you also go into the details I need. Thank you for posting!

@shabinlife 2 года назад

Thank you so much for your comment, it couldn't have come at a more perfect time. I'm so glad the plumbing video helped you out, (funny... of all the construction trades, this was where I was least experienced 🤪 as I've spent most of my life in electrical). I watched your latest video & we too spent many hours reading, watching & planning before getting started. If you have a professional inspector, don't hesitate to bounce questions of them as well... especially if you paid for permits, 😁. Thanks again for watching & wishing you all the best on your build!

Really explicit video, showing and describing what I need to know. When I check a look at the size of your washing machine water inlets I realize they were 3/4 of an inch, so I looked at mine and the bastards put a half inch hose on a 3/4 in line. When you buy a house that has been flipped, you can expect extremely cheap connections. I have to completely redo the entire bathroom because they cheaped out on just a few things that caused the addition to sag and split from the rest of the house. So I need to move the bathroom and destroy the addition and this video helps me to understand what it's like simply to redo a new bathroom

@jrandall5736 2 года назад

Good video but I did all my planning too ahead of framing in walls. I actually marked and drilled all my pipe holes in 5 1/2 bottom plate prior to framing that wall. That way once I framed the studs and top plate and erected and nailed in place, I was able to use my pre drilled pipe holes in the bottom plate as guide to finish drilling thru the floor decking. Also from past experience I did not leave any big gap around tub drain pipe. Doing so will invite mice to make a home under tub and to store nuts and such under tub. I had a pecan tree and I swear it used to sound like the mice were playing marbles under tub at 3:00am in the morning. If you do drill out to big just make yourself a couple of snipped out thin sheet metal with pipe size radius cut out in both pieces and push together around pipe in floor and screw down to floor decking. Doesn’t take much opening for a mouse to squeeze through. I like to tell people if a mouse wants in my house it’s going to have to have a key to the front door.

@shabinlife 2 года назад

Thanks J, all great advice & certainly not a bad thought at all. Funny enough, I just spent the last 3 days catching mice each night in my Silverado parked just outside the Shabin. Was a pain to clean out the crazy nest they made in my dashboard in only a day or two, lol. Hope you have a Merry Christmas & Happy New Year! Thanks so much for watching!!

@MightyFlux Год назад

the toilet flange should sit ontop of the finish floor or atlease 1/4 above the finish floor, the flange as is now will not allow for proper sealing between the toilet and flange with a wax ring as the wax ring may not reach all the way dow to the flange and compress to create the seal. you may need to get a tall wax ring and hope it fits , just food for thought for those of you looking to install your own toilet flange.

According to may plumbing inspector, you can't use metal straps on PVC or ABS pipes. You have to use the plastic equivalents

@erickwiseman9812 2 года назад

Varies on where you're at and what plumbing code your city or state adopts. Split rings are metal and are used all the time to stand off walls or ceilings when needed. Also have used 2 hole straps abd passed mine.
