I want to install a sink in the laundry room of our new construction home. I opted for pre-plumb and the builder got paint all over the stub outs as you can see in the first 3 photos.
Luckily I snuck into another home still being built and took photos of the rough in as you can see in the last 2 photos.
I noticed that the water lines are PEX with clamps on the ends, but it also looks like a smaller PEX tube is sitting inside a larger PEX tube. Is this common?
If I want to add a shut off valve to each of them, which PEX do I cut off? The smaller end or do I cut off somewhere on the larger diameter PEX. If the larger, do I have to worry about the smaller PEX that's sitting inside the larger PEX?
Also are both of the larger stub outs below the water lines both drains? I'm assuming this are not PEX and instead PVC. How do I remove those caps? They look like some sort of solvent/glue is on there. Do I just cut them off? Not sure what the screw on one of them is either.
Any help would be appreciated.
