hi all, hoping the more experienced can provide some feedback on my idea to include clean outs when i replace my bathroom sink as part of my bathroom gut renovation. i stumbled across this post here in the forums that inspired me to think about the clean out.
i want to add clean outs in my bathroom sink i came across two approache:
finehomebuilding has one with two cleanouts
(1) at the wall
(2) under the p-trap

matt risinger showed a second pipe above the sink pipe

if i go with the finehomebuilding example, i would be doing the following (with links for example):
1.5" sink drain --> 1.5" p-trap --> 2" wye
the 2" wye has two connections:
(1) vertical 1.5" waste pipe
(2) 2" female pvc with threads
i'm leaning towards what finehomebuilding shows since it'll take up less space in my small bathroom. i'm not sure if its overkill but i figure why not have two places to get at any clogs since both are different types of problems.
