I'm splicing a new clothes washer drain into my main stack - the stack is is 3" copper.
The stud may need to be notched depending on the solution here.
I may also swap the valve/drain position for more clearance.
anyway, our inspector requires 10lbs of air, or 15' of head as a test -
this is part of a much larger project - you've already helped with the others about a year ago, so i turn to you with this question.
How do i test this? - it only has 4 joints, and 2 banded couplers (? require testing?)!
do i build it, cap the ends and test it on the ground? -
i can't put 15' of head on the main stack, because of a WC just above the connection i'm making. There is access to the space below where one of the couplers will be.
Thanks
