Hello everyone,
First time visiting this forum; if any of you can help me out with this issue, I'd greatly appreciate it! I'm remodeling my basement and last night while I was scraping the floor I came across 2 two inch pipes that are imbedded in the slab in the middle of the room. They are black (I'm assuming ABS) and about 3 feet apart from each other. The top 3 inches of each pipe was stuffed with drywall mud and below that was styrafoam. I managed to get all of that out of each pipe and then I could see that the pipes go straight down for about 6 inches and then both make a 90 degree turn and head toward the general direction of the house's main drain. There was no odor coming out of either one. I should also mention the top of each pipe appears to have been broken off level with the concrete slab; no cap on them.
My first assumption was that it was a rough in for any future utility sinks or washing machines as it is about 10 feet away from our utility room. But I'm not sure at all and none of my DIY friends have been able to figure it out. The house was built in 1981.
Any ideas? Thanks!
