    Adding 2 sinks on 1.5" horizontal run

    Hey all! I need to add 2 sinks (stub out, p-trap, etc) in an office space that I am renting. There is an existing 1.5" pipe off the main stack and heading in the right direction. The crude sketch below generally illustrates my situation. 1) Obviously, venting is going to be a problem. Since...

    Wax Ring Failure?

    Please feel free to ignore my ramblings and look at picture and questions - pretty self explanatory. Good morning! After some kicking and screaming, I have given into my families demands to make the garage a more flexible and usable space for gaming and exercising activities. While I'm very...

    Pressure Test Leak

    Hi All! With lots of help from you all, I've prepped for my pressure test on the DWV rebuild of this 1938 house. With the exception of 2" and 4" threaded clean-out plugs, my only leak is a slow drip at the joint circled in the picture, at the base of my attic vent stack. Since this is the...

    Offset back-to-back bathroom sinks

    Hello, I've got a couple of questions for back-to-back bathroom sinks that have offset centers. I plan to bring the waste pipe (and vent), 2", up through the middle of both sink centers. When I split off, left and right, horizontally from that pipe, I will run in each direction (again...

    Couple basic DWV questions

    Good morning! I've got a master plumber coming out in a few weeks to help me with my install, but I'd like to be mostly prepared/supplied, so I have a couple questions: 1) In my crawlspace, does the soil stack (where my drains turn down to go underground) need to have a vent straight up from...
