We have a two year old home, two story. We have been arguing with builder since day one on ongoing plumbing problems. Need advice before another plumber is sent out. First have inspection report that states fixtures are set too far apart for typical wet vent system and that there are too many bends and turns in wet venting which temporarily blocks off the vents when draining. For example when you drain the bathtub it siphons water out of toilet. Or if you flush the toilet when bathtub is draining the bathtub quits draining until toilet fills. This occurs in every bathroom. Water also siphons out of toilets when washing machine drains. This is all on second story. Second all the abs pipes were fastened down to first floor ceiling rafters and pieces of abs pipe were used to hold pipe up in various locations. What is proper way to do this. Most of the cpvc pipes are free hanging. We have pictures. We have also been reading water meter and at present are losing a gallon of water every three days somewhere. Currently not living in house because of other problems so this has been easy to track. Would appreciate any comments.
