Thanks Breplum, In this case the valve is for a shower only install with three diversions above. PMI, they state this should be the orientation with the bottom plugged. At any rate, I will pull the spooler and plunk in the new one. I was hoping for a definitive answer direct from Moen (no...

Recently, I had to cut in a new branch for a bar sink off my 3/4" copper mains that run from one side of my basement to the other. In addition, I have shutoffs and drain plugs for both the hot and cold mains. Further, I have shutoffs for every branch to each room/appliance. Last time I had...

Picture back from kitchen remodel with Johnston tee moving the air gap off the sink and outdoors. This also meant adding a trap to the dishwasher and into the sink waste/vent line. It was much cleaner afterwards. Second pic is the ugly Johnston Tee on the exterior wall. You can see the sink...

Oh yes Cool Blue Harley - it does. I have come to the conclusion that my 3" sewer main will be at 35 or 36 when it reaches the footing where I will eventually be adding the final waste line (with 2 to 5 DFUs). Since the Kitchen Sink and Dishwasher were actually the very first thing on my sewer...

So that withstanding...the kitchen sink is 2DFU's -period. So by extrapolation, does that mean the dishwasher is 0DFU's when attached to a kitchen sink but rated at 2DFU's when standalone (or additional DWs)? And can I have your opinion - do you think they wrote that "and/or" line when the...

Hello, I have a 3" sewer main with a number of branch waste lines that enter it. 3" lines are rated for 35 DFU maximum. I have added a few fixtures in my basement and elsewhere and am approaching the maximum DFU rating for my main. Recently, I was doing some careful calculation of every...

Hello, I own a home in Seattle (which uses the UPC) built in 1991. I bought this home from the original owner who had the house built. I am currently remodeling my master bathroom. While working below in my garage under the master, after opening up a ceiling rafter bay, I spied a 2" ABS...
