    Softener, humidifier, and AC drains - into trap or arm?

    I'm replacing a corroded copper drain line in my crawlspace that services the kitchen sink up above. Currently, the AC, humidifier, and water softener all connect together and drain into a hole somebody drilled into the kitchen sink drain in the crawlspace. The drain hose is just siliconed...

    Delta R10000 rough in question

    As the title states I'm roughing in a Delta R10000 valve with the dryden thermostatic valve and trim. I'm putting it in the opposing wall from the shower head. The supplies are in but I have a question about the positioning of the valve. I've heard that the tub outlet provides more flow and...

    Question about 3/4 S-Trap

    Would this be one? The trap would be that of a 2nd floor shower. The top outlet of the santee would tie into the stack vent in the attic, the bottom into a 90, then run parallel to the joists to the stack ~4 feet away. I know it would be if it downturned directly after the trap outlet, but...

    Washing Machine DWV Question

    Pex for shower only valve install?

    I know that valve manufacturers say not to use pex for valve to tub spout supply lines, but what about shower only installations? I'll be using the Delta Multichoice universal rough-in valve if it makes a difference. The valve is also on a sidewall next to the shower head wall as opposed to...

    Switch Wiring Nightmare Pictures

    The other night my girlfriend and I were trying to find a switched outlet in the bedroom of her new apartment, and upon being unsuccessful, I decided to take the cover off and have a looksee. I knew there was no point in having a switch if it wasn't going to control something. When I took the...

    Trying to figure out shower drain rough-in..

    As the title states, I'm trying to figure out the rough-in for my shower drain in my basement bathroom. I've already placed the toilet drain but the whole vent and wet vent thing is confusing me.

    Flange height situation.

    I'll be installing a new toilet in my master bath tomorrow after remodeling it. During the remodel, I installed some 3/4 OSB over the existing subfloor, Ditra, and 5/16 tile. My dilemma is obviously the flange which I neglected until now. I'm wondering which is the best course of action to...

    How much play in the Aquia's rough-in?

    I'm in the process of remodeling my master bathroom and have a Toto Aquia on order for the toilet. That's not an issue, I'll use that no matter what. The issue is that the rough-in is 12" and I'd like to install wainscoting behind the toilet. My plan was to put up paneled wainscoting but...
