Great video, better than most videos with clear instructions!

@T_Jonesy 3 месяца назад

Great video. As a DIYer who is always intimidated by plumbing, this was really straight forward and understandable. Thank you for making the install so clear and uncomplicated.

@TheExcellentLaborer 3 месяца назад

Thank you! That’s the great thing with shark bite fittings, any DIYer can do the installation. I think it’s important to make the videos very understandable. Stay tuned for more!

@@TheExcellentLaborer At some point, I'd love to see you install an Ikea Rannilen p trap on a sink. The Swedes have cleverly placed their p-trap parallel to the wall so you gain loads of extra space under the sink that allows for full use of sink drawers where you don't have to notch out the middle of the drawer for the p trap to fit. I've always called in a plumber for these jobs, but I'll bet you could explain how to do the install very easily.

Oh yeah, I always have trouble installing all new equipment in all new builds, so challenging. lol 😂

I try to remember to remove the faucet aerator prior to first time use. If there is sediment in the system, it will flush out...

@vicf6509 3 месяца назад

I believe they sell chrome sleeves to cover the Pex. It makes for a cleaner look.

@TheExcellentLaborer 3 месяца назад

Yes they do. In the video coming out soon, I use that for the toilet supply waterline. Stay tuned!

If you ever have to replace the sink pop-up drain, good luck with the silicone. I always use plumbers putty.

@ryanrents126 3 месяца назад

And I've had several issues with plumbers putty so I use silicone lol

Nice work, the detailed explanation is clear and to the point. Question though, why didn't you use Teflon tape?

@Dave-ld3dr 3 месяца назад

Just a question I want to use the Pex B but from other videos I saw that you should go with 3/4” if your going to use Pex B for a true flow.I seen that with expansion you can use 1/2” because the fittings will be the true diameter.Is this true or not necessary?I seen that 1/2” Pex B fittings are not a true diameter at the connections.

@jugheadjones5458 Месяц назад

Good video. I'm starting a bathroom remodel. Good to be reminded how to do the water lines. Do you ever use teflon tape on the threads?

@NSilver832 23 дня назад

You don't need Teflon tape on the threads since those hoses seal with a rubber washer included in the fittings. I have seen some people like using Teflon tape on those fittings but honestly I don't know why, some say because it makes it easier to thread those fittings and other because that gives them some peace of mind but at the end of the day the threads on the fittings are there just to attach and tighten the hoses since the seal is made with the rubber washer.

I live in a very old home in Indiana. Under the bathroom sink the top pipe that's connected to the sink isn't connected to the second pipe . There's a gap . I asked the plumber if it was normal and he said it's fine . It also has two curved pipe connectors and the last one connects to the floor of the cabinet. Should I buy another kit and completely connect them? I've never done it but I'm sure I can.

@TheExcellentLaborer You're a great builder and help us all with all that you share. 😀

@newanryland5656 Месяц назад

So with slip joints, you're not required to use primer and cement? I thought you always have to use primer, cement, or teflon tape at every joint in order to be up to code? Someone help me understand the exceptions.

@jackhodges1030 Месяц назад

Slip joints have a rubber washer that goes down with the nut on top and seals it, if you use any type of permanent securement like glue it would not slip hence the name. On your trap you can put Teflon tape on the threads and again a rubber washer and nut seals it, slip joint there's no place to put it only the washer seals it.

@jaimedpcaus1 2 месяца назад

What are the pipe (ptrap) sizes for this sink?

@TheExcellentLaborer 2 месяца назад

1 1/4” . I hope that helps!

@jaimedpcaus1 2 месяца назад

@TheExcellentLaborer Yes, it does very much. Have a great day.

@lisaperry491 3 месяца назад

Hi all! I have a question and I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction. We are converting our master bath from a tub to a shower. We want walls that go to the ceiling. I'm only finding 70 inches except for a select few, and they're white. Any ideas where else we could look? TIA!

You said you put the supply lines at different levels but I did not understand why. Would you please elaborate? Thank you.

@therealguru5126 3 месяца назад

Your videos are always so good but this is the only one I see a miss on. I personally think the pex stub outs are the lazy, unprofessional way to go. I run pex, pex A, to a pro pex drop ear. Then I can install any chrome stub out and place my pipe cover over them and they actually fit snug, not like was shown here. Just looks more professional.

Not going to comment to criticism it looks like, lol 😂
