    Move sink drain into exterior wall?

    Quick update - running a snake fixed the problem. 6 months inactivity was enough time for whatever crud was present to solidify. Blockage was further down drainage pipe but prior to mudsink. I did put the AAV extension back into place to prevent air locking.

    Hello Breplum - thank you for pointing out that the attachment is wrong. I don't know what that photo is. I didn't upload that nor own the photo. Strange. I have uploaded a new attachment and will check that it is what I am uploading. What is your rationale/wisdom on why to stay with 2"? I...

    Move sink drain into exterior wall?

    Hello All - Homeowner/DIYer posting here. I need guidance on if I can move this drain pipe for a kitchen sink and what my options are (in Tennessee). I'd like it go be hidden in the wall if possible. It currently comes up through the floor as a 2" PVC pipe. My thought was in the crawlspace...
