    Kitchen P-trap leaking. What am I missing?

    Feel like I've tried everything. I even left disposer disconnected and only filled trap and it still had a leak after about 10 minutes from the threaded connection. Am I missing something, or could this part be bad? If I buy another, will I need to cut off and re-solvent connect? Would it be...

    Reasonable to assume I've got a clogged vent? (Video)

    1/2" copper main to 3/4" Pex main runs

    Hi there, Newer member here. I'm about to install a Pex-a system in my 70's ranch style, one-level home. This system will be replacing an old galvanized system. What I'm interpreting as the main line from the meter is copper. It appears that this main line bends up and forms a Tee with a 3/4"...
