    Thanks everybody! Chick, I am moving my kitchen and I wanted to tie the new sink into that 2" vent pipe and then re route the part of the vent that came out from the pump into the main waste pipe. But since ya'll said I can't eliminate that vent, I'm gonna have to run a whole new pipe beside...

    Ejector Pump Venting

    Thanks for the reply, but I know that it has to be vented. I just need to know where can i vent it? Do I have to keep the vent pipe running outside and up the side of the house or can I cut the vent pipe about 5 feet above the pump and just let the air vent into the basement air?

    Ejector Pump Venting

    I have an ejector pump in my basement in which a 1/2 bath and washing machine are tied into. I have taken the 1/2 bath out and moved it upstairs and now only have the washing machine tied into it. My question is, do I still need to vent just the washing machine? The vent pipe runs the length...

    Few questions on bathroom remodel

    i know you can use shark bites that join lines together just by pushing them in. i used them to join new pex lines to old copper lines. They have all kinds of fittings, couplers, etc. and they even rotate and you can buy a tool to remove them if you mess up. It is a little scary how easy it...

    Odd Sink

    S-trap to P-trap

    that looks like the vent that goes up and the drain that goes down. No problem there, right? As long as that's a sanitary tee, it should be easier to work with being that the pipe is exposed and easier to access.

    Odd Sink

    i bought a new galvanized wall mounting bracket that will work just fine. I already reinforced the wall where the sink will be mounted. There is a date stamped into the porcelain that I believe may read Feb 11, 1954, so I am sure it is old, but I can't believe I haven't been able to find...

    Odd Sink

    http://www.flickr.com/photos/36070636@N07/ I posted a thread a few weeks ago about this sink, but never heard from anyone that had really seen anything like this, let alone how to add a drain to it. We're trying to use this as a bathroom lavatory, but again, don't know how to connect a...

    basement sink pump/venting questions

    we have a waste pump in our basement for a utility sink, washer, and toilet which vents through the base of the house and then runs up the side to above the roof line. It's not the prettiest thing, but that's just how it is.

    Can I Make This Sink Work?

    Gardner is right it is a built in porcelain tailpiece. I could make this easier if i knew the terminology. I do know that in normal sinks, you put a piec down from the top with a gasket and secure it fom below, making a water tight connection. This sink, there is no large hole to put the...

    Can I Make This Sink Work?

    I appreciate your reply However, there is no single large hole where the drain is. The drain is integrated, all porcelain with small holes for water drainage. The entire basin is solid. Thus, there is no pop up assembly to pull to activate a stop to trap water in the basin. This thing...

    It's 12" W X 13 1/2" D. The faucet is integrated, that is, the faucet and sink are all porcelain, one piece. The hot and cold handles are seperate and can be removed. There are holes all the way around the under part of the rim, (like a toilet?). The drain is integrated, that is, it is...
