34 year old woman who knows nothing about fixing anything, and ur few second video helped more than these 20 minute videos that had me swearing. Thank you. Can u do a video on y my belt on my riding mower keeps slipping next? Lol. Done tightened the spring and took deck off and can’t find the problem. Seriously tho, thank you for this cuz I was gonna take a sledge hammer to it 😂
This person is a true hero... after my 2 days of work and finally telling my wife "Babe, I think we need a plumber", you came in right on time with the Male Ego save...Yes!!!
That's the best video I've ever seen thank you very much.. it's about time all that talkin sucks.. it's good the way you did it I'm very impressed thank you very much..
There's probably a sanitary tee inside the wall, where the water flows down and the vent goes up and connects to a larger pipe that eventually goes through and vents through the roof
Why would you use purple primer? Clear primer looks much better. Purple primer is for the inspector to see that you used it only it isn't even a requirement on drainage. Good install though! Tubular traps are the best for home owners too because they can take them apart if they get clogged.
I'm surprised those gaskets worked that well. if they did. I don't know anything about this which is why I'm here but I definitely didn't expect the gasket application to be like that
DIYer here, I’ve been told by a plumber to always 1/4 turn glue joints to ensure adhesion. I’ve always done it ever since and it’s second nature now, but he didn’t do it in this video and it low key bothered me lmao. AGAIN, I AM NOT A PLUMBER!!!! Any plumbers here that can put this conversation to bed?
I know everybody hates when another plumber from a different area decides to tell a different way of doing it but if you put primer and glue on the face of the pipe and the face of the fitting it literally doubles the strength of your glue joint and if you chafe the pipe you don't get a squeegee effect as your inserting the pipe into the fitting it can squeegee the glue out of the socket and there are voids in the glue joint not really that important for a drain line.
Im serious, can you show how please :) I’m 60 and whiny to redo the whole thing because my builder led my new sink dripping:( I think I can fix it but want to do it right, thank you
Bro! Where is the escutcheon on the pvc? And been using purple primer my whole career 18yrs. And use a piece of cardboard under the primer and glue when using it. Didn't have no problems with a mess!!!
I am thinking about how much money the chemist made from creating that PVC cement. They need to highlight these types of creations in school so the children can understand that they can be successful using science and they don't HAVE TO PLAY SPORTS, RAP, ACT OR TIKTOK in order to be successful🤓😎
Okay just double checking. I'm a new apprentice and I did exactly what you just did 😂. My foreman had me doing pex and just boosted me up to finish work plumbing. Training with good teachers too!
I know it doesn’t matter in this setting. But we found that if you don’t prime and glue the end edges of pipe. We failed every pressure test on drains. But when we made certain to glue the edges. We pass every time. I don’t take time to concern myself with why. I just know the edges getting sealed helped hold pressure.
No need. The seal comes from the red gasket. It's shapped with a bevel and when you tighten it you should be water tight. Adding anything to the threads could actually interfere with the nut and not let the gasket seat properly
You could carefully cut around the drywall with a box cutter about 1/2 inch all the way around to gove you better access. I would then add a coupling and another short piece of pipe same diameter to have it come out of the wall by a 3-4 inches thus extending it... I'm not a plumber but this is what i would do. You can also add these metal plates around the pipe to cover the hole if you're worried about appearance but I doubt anyone's ever gonna be inspecting your beautiful plumbing job under the sink 😊 I hope this makes sense. Basically you're extending the pipe in the wall by adding a short piece of pipe and using the coupler to connect the 2 pipes together using primer and pipe glue/cement. Cutting the hole in the drywall around the pipe lets you get glue around the existing pipe and gives room to put the coupler on.
@@pjplumber2146 In Russia, this is called a "knee" siphon. the curved pipe is a siphon, aka a hydraulic seal. if you look closely, you can see that during assembly, the seal ring remains on the floor, it is not put in place.
Its tapered already thats y u dnt need a gasket on the weer of the ptrap..also they give an extra gasket thats y theres one left...its smaller inside for 1¼ grid strainer
It always beats me why the hell youd have all this crap under your sinks when you can just go straight out, then have all the gunk outside in your drain that you can easily clean up
