Wayne I have enginnered 12" I-joists and I looked up holes and that should be an issue with the size hole. I will run a 2" vent for that left hand Lav, per the table I can run 1-1/2" but will run 2", that wall only i made 2x6. Also not in a cold climate, live in the desert. Thanks so much for...

Ok yes sorry about that. Last question, the vent pipes should be 1-1/2" up the stud cavity and then 2" when combined or should I run 2" vent pipe from the start? Thank you guys so much for the help. Really appreciate it very much!

Wayne, Amazing thank you so much! Joist running left to right so this will be good. The washing machine drain there, should I tie that into the Orange 3" branch and can I connnect its vent to the wet vent in the attic? Or should I runn the washer drain to the stack?

Thank you guys for the fast response. I will go with the AAV then if that is allowed. Good to hear combining the vents are fine, im good with two 2" vents out the roof, just didn't want four or more. So I have to fix the wet vents. Because of how my bathrooms are set up, picture attached...

Good morning All, I am looking for some input on my vent and waste schematic. I am building my own house, I am not a plumber so would like you alls take on what I would like to do. I have attached a photo of what I have. Just trying to get an over all picture before I get into the details. I...

Pex is very pricey. The line will be buried the entire way. I called a couple supply places and haven't been able to find some SIDR pipe locally. I can always buy it online and have it shipped but that adds a decent cost also. Seem like most people use pex for there supply lines here BUT they...

That SIDR pipe I should be looking at 160 psi pipe? Thanks for the help

Dropping 65' in elevation, gravity should give me about 28 psi and an booster pump to get to 50 psi. Looking to have about 15 gpm flow. I think roughly a 1.25" pipe will be 30 feet head loss, 1.5" pipe 12 feet head loss, and 2" pipe 5 feet. If that is right was thinking 1.5" pipe

Good evening, I am going to be running a 700' 1.5" water supply line from my storage tank to home. What type of pipe do you all recommend using? I see people using PEX PVC HPDE and others. It will be in southern Arizona. Thanks Ryan

Yes I didn't think about the emergency upside. I live in Arizona desert so diffidently want a storage tank. Seems like its not that big of a deal to have the well pump down low pump the water the additional way up the mountain to the storage tank.

Thanks so much for the response. Do you think running the addition 250' of pipe and having the well pump pump the water up an addition 100' elevation gain only to get 25psi from gravity and to need booster pumps anyway would even be worth it? Or should I just plan on needing booster pumps and...

Good afternoon, new here and already love all the info. I am building 2 off grid homes on my property and have a question on were to position my water storage tank. I am going to be drilling a well in a year from now but would like to put my storage tank in and run water to my jobsites while...
