Lots of respect for all the disciplines you rely on, Jeff. I've been an engineer on state of-the art high tech tools and instrumentation (diagnostics, fabrication) for 30 years and I've had to learn just about every discipline in the process. It's amazing how involved each discipline can be if you're good at it. When you have to combine all these skillsets in one job, with only one person, it's almost mental saturation. So again, respect for how you keep packing that understanding in and learning more and more about these complex disciplines.

Much respect.

Those Saniflo pumps are lifesavers *in the right situation*. As someone that has had to troubleshoot and replace parts inside of one, it is worth quite a bit of money, trouble and time to avoid using them. Worst thing (emptying the Saniflow) I have ever done in my life.

Minor recommendation, remove the price stickers from the plumbing if it is at any connection. While rare, it can interfere with the solvent making a water-tight bond.

@TimfromAlabama Год назад

In the city...I live outside in the country...where I live you must use copper for water...no pex allowed. If you use a metal electric box all electric wiring has to be inside conduit. On sewage/drainage you have to run a vent line up and out of either the attic or thru the roof...cheater air valves not allowed. Yeah. They're sticklers to things is outrageous. In the country out here...no building codes or inspectors to deal with. I still follow the old rules...do it right even if it costs more. I also still do all my electric boxes out of the thicker blue or black plastic except a junction box which is metal, with the little black plastic nut end things that when you tighten presses down against the wire stuck in the holes my wires come in thru, wires soldered, wire nuts on the ends, wrap a little tape, and covered...just to be sure. PVC for cold water, CPVC for hot. edit...forgot to mention in the city they don't allow wall plugs and switches to use the cheater push in holes. You have to wrap the screw, and the 3rd ground has to be up...don't know why because it doesn't really matter. And no 14 gauge wiring allowed. 12 gauge is minimum on 10 to 15 amp circuits, 10 for 20 to 25 amp, 8 on 30 amp...literally 1 step larger for each. Yep. They are weird.

@bluewindshield 11 месяцев назад

Why didn't you use 2" for the drain out the box? Most codes require it, and that is why the box is made for a 2" pvc glue connection.

@BenoitStPierre Год назад

46:17 Maybe take off the barcode sticker too if you really want the solvent to work 😆

@jeffweber8244 Год назад

Jeff, since you opened up the ceiling, why not run the wire through the joists instead of tacked under them? You seem to have room now to drill the holes. Would prevent you from having to build a box.

Washer hookups should have been put on left and dryer vent on right. Reason is that front load washers are all left-hinged and non-reversible. This won't matter for a top load washer, but it is a big mistake if homeowner wants a front load.

@andrewcarr2431 Год назад

Hi Jeff. In the UK the majority of DWV is outside of the home, attached to the side of the house. either cast Iron (old) or PVC (new). Plus We don't have the risk of freezing in the discharge pipes as our temps don't hit the same as we have in The Great White North. Most places don't allow ABS as it was made from recycled crap and subject to UV light. In our Province in Canada you cannot use PVC (Go figure?!) as the code is outdated. And electrical is 220v in the UK so getting zapped really hurts a lot more, don't ask me how I know this :-) just trust me. I can tell the tale if you really wanna know? Personally, I like having the 110v system in North America, with the advent of LED lights and low voltage electronic devices the lights no longer dim every time your run the kettle and the TV during Stanley Cup advertising break. Canada, a country based on Metric which sells lumber in feet and Diesel in liters. As opposed to the UK which was until recently part of the European Trade Union that sells lumber in mm (but everyone knows what you are asking for) and diesel in Gallons....

@thomasreedy4751 11 месяцев назад

2” P-trap - 6 to 18 inches from the ground. Stand pipe 18-24 inches from the ptrap. Ptrap at least 2*pipe diameter up to 5’ to the vent, depending on vent diameter. Slope no more than 4 “ to 1’. I really don’t think gluing and cutting is the hard part of plumbing. It is making sure that your doing it to code and choosing the connections.

@21:54 - You are not allowed to use a aav for a pump system. (I think you’re running a separate vent for the pump though.) Aav should not be buried in wall at least needs an access panel, best to put it right under the sink. @23:45 - Most pumps require the circuit be a dedicated run from the panel (should be mentioned so people don’t screw this up) @28:51 - Staple every 5 ft not required where drywall is already installed. @44:21 - should have the specs in pump spec sheet , the The Saniflo 0.3 HP gray water pump requires a 15A 120V GFCI protected circuit. You should not be suggesting people use 14-2 for 240v systems. Only 15 amp 120v!

@TwilightxKnight13 Год назад

True, but can you share what you learned doing yours?

@hank7982 Год назад

@@TwilightxKnight13 yes, basically what I learned is that the p-trap has a height requirement that it has to be installed above the floor level, and that it must be between 6-18 inches above the floor. The standpipe itself (after the joint of the p-trap) needs to be between 18-42 inches. If the stand pipe is too long, I learned that the drainage can cause excess sloughing of drainage out of the P-trap resulting in an inneffecive water seal. If it's too short, you could overflow your drain line. In my state, it is a requirement that all drain lines for washing machines are now 2" diameter.

@josephbohme7917 Год назад

You comment about water in the vent and cure it without finding a cause by adding too much slope.. Water in the pipe is not bad unless it can statically collect more than a 1/4" which means it is not using steady gravity. Too much and it can siphon a p trap. Even heavy winds can make a vent pipe evaporate a p trap on unused sink in a week or three.
