    Mystery Exterior Clean Outs

    Anything could happen in the question mark portion of my diagram, but from what I can see without a scope, they both bend toward the building. I'll be excavating the front yard at some point, so I'll be able to move them then.

    I suspect the same guy is responsible for this in the basement:

    Mystery Exterior Clean Outs

    Here's a pic. You can't see the other cleanout... it has only an inch clearance under the meter!

    Mystery Exterior Clean Outs

    Hi all, I've got a curiosity in my front yard, and I'm hoping that someone out there has seen this or can reason what's going on. Below is an illustration of two clean outs located just inches from the bottom of the gas meter (very convenient!). I took off the caps and I can see that both bend...

    Venting new main floor bath.. will this work??

    Unless anyone figures otherwise, it's looking like this is the way to go.. Or, of course, give up the extra space in this tiny room and run pipes through the walls behind the sink.

    Venting new main floor bath.. will this work??

    From your reply and the others, I see that a vent must take off from above the trap. I'd love to do something like you propose in green, but I'm hoping to avoid running pipe in that location. This exercise may prove that this is impossible, however. We'll see.. To answer your question, I'd...

    Venting new main floor bath.. will this work??

    Hi All, I'm trying to plan a new bathroom on our main floor that's directly below the one on our main floor. The pictures below say it all, but in essence I'm trying to vent a sink and toilet without running pipes up the wall at the fixture locations. I've got lots of space in the basement...
