For our master bath remodel we are doing dual pedestal sinks.
The wall they are going on is small so we are looking at the 24" Kohler Devonshire sinks.
The faucets we are considering all come with a 1-1/4" drain. The rough in for these sinks is going to be all new, so I have control over alignment and drain size.
Questions:
Kohler has a nice chrome P-trap, but they all seem to come with a cleanout. Is a cleanout at the bottom of the trap even accessible in a pedestal sink? Without holding them together, I'm not sure I'd be able to tell.
Are Kohler and the other "nice" brands of p-traps worth the up-cost? I know it's just a drain, but if the metal is nicer and finish holds up better it will be worth it. But $70 versus $25 is a big difference (times 2 sinks).
Finally, 1-1/2" drain with a reducing washer (most seem to come with it), or 1-1/4" to the wall then 1-1/2 to the drain vent (which is 2" and already in place).
Thanks,
Anthony
