    Macerator, sink, laundry and cleanout fittings on a vertical vent

    Also, can I use a no hub such as Proflex which has a shield and 2 bands, or do I need a no arc with 3-4 bands. Also, I won't be able to use the coupling with a stop in the center, due to the copper line in the back.

    Macerator, sink, laundry and cleanout fittings on a vertical vent

    I am having a bit of an issue adding a fitting in that vertical pipe. It is burried in concrete and there is a copper water line sitting right behind the ABS pipe. There was an old san-tee in the spot so someone probably patched the hole with concrete. I had to be really careful while cutting...

    Macerator, sink, laundry and cleanout fittings on a vertical vent

    Just wanted to confirm if the right way of doing this. I want to add the vent stack into main vent (inside concrete wall) so that I do not have to open up the wall too much and avoid short 90's. Should I use a Wye and a 45 fitting for the bottom of the stack, or a Sanitary Tee and 90 fitting...

    Macerator, sink, laundry and cleanout fittings on a vertical vent

    I didn't want to create confusion, since I am coming up with new ideas and questions. I will add a vent stack for these fixtures and tie the sink, from the room on the other side of the wall, into the main vent. This seems to be the best option and the least demolition. I am still not sure if...

    Vent pipe in exterior wall - tee/90 bend

    Thank you. How about adding a vertical stack just parallel to the main vent, so that it hides between studs, and drain the fixtures through that? Will this work?

    Vent pipe in exterior wall - tee/90 bend

    Hi. I am looking to frame my garage and separate laundry/bath area. The plumbing (vent pipe) is inside the concrete block wall. I want to extent a few pipes and hide them in the new wall framing but not sure which approach is the way to do it. Can I add a tee with a short 90 so that it bends...

    Replacing a section in ABS horizontal drain below slab

    Correct, it's nearly impossible to buy ABS locally in Florida but I've it online, along with ABS cement and ABS to PVC transition cement. As for the no hub coulings, upon doing a research, I ordered Mission Rubber Flex-Seal MR56 22 ARC, which seem to be stronger than Fernco but also much...

    Fitting type for vertical macerator waste downwards

    Thank you. I am just wondering If it won't create too much stress with a wye, it the waste will blast with 17 PSI. Also, would you put a cleanout below the wye or above it (below stand pipe's sanitary tee)?

    Replacing a section in ABS horizontal drain below slab

    Hi. I need to replace a a section of a horizontal ABS drain line that is burried below the slab, due to a cracked wye. Is it better to use an ABS pipe and ABS wye for that section, or can I use a piece of PVC pipe and PVC wye (with a transition cement)? Also, should I use a no hub coupling...

    Fitting type for vertical macerator waste downwards

    Hello. I am installing a Saniaccess2 macerating unit for a toilet to drain waste into a 2" pipe. I am just not sure about the fitting that should be used when Saniflo is draining into a vertical vent pipe. Unfortunately the codes IPC codes (Florida) do not address this type of drainage and the...

    Adding a small powder room to garage, in place of an old shower

    Hello. I am located in Florida. I got rid of an old shower in the garage which was already there when I bought the house. I am looking to build a small half bathroom with a toilet and sink, where the shower was located. It had a 2" drain under concrete slab which is most likely tied to the vent...

    Adding a sink drain into washer pipe

    Can't I do this if the sink is on the other side of the wall? Can i still have the washer hose inside the stand pipe or will it have to flush in the laundry sink?
