Once again, I appreciate all the information - I've learned a lot about plumbing! I've also learned that I don't need a utility sink that badly - the bucket and hose in the backyard will continue do just fine for washing paint brushes, etc. I won't do a project "wrong", but I'm also not going...

Thanks Wayne, WorthFlorida – great info! Let me see if I understand – responses and questions in blue Wayne’s comments: OK, two important points that are not reflected in your proposed layout: - Under the UPC, the laundry sink needs a 2" drain (Table 702.1, footnote 2) Rob: Understood – I’m...

OK, here are the pictures of the existing plumbing (Pics 1A and 1B), and what I hope to accomplish (Pics 2 and 3). Here's my best guess at how it all goes together - appreciate all corrections and suggestions!! Pictures 1A and 1B: Here's what's currently installed (or my best guesses based on...

Hi Everyone, Thanks for a great forum! I want to add a utility sink in the basement backing to an existing bathroom sink, but I'm not sure how to connect the drain pipes. I searched the forum and found great examples using a "double fixture fitting", but my drain pipe runs sideways, not down...

Thanks Mahuska - useful links, but the faucet stem/valve assembly is fine. I'm looking for replacement trim parts. Thanks HJ - I searched the net for "H44-12" (and variations) and found one hit on ****...

Hi All, New here, but this looks like a great forum! Started by surfing the 'net to identify my bathroom sink faucet, found a similar post here, then searched further here. Apologies if I missed it, but I haven't found an exact hit. I also searched Price Pfister's partner website, Faucet...
