cheap in the short term No, checked all the toilets, its definitely the run going under the garage slab, wouldnt hold pressure when he checked that run

no unfortunately its all slab, which I had a basement, I called out a plumber since I was a bit over my head on this one, he cut the line that was leaking where it goes into the slab, routed it in the garage ceiling over to the manifold with PEX kinda wondering if I should have done it myself...

Thanks for the idea, but no such luck Went to the garage last night to look for more leaks, found a puddle by the wet wall Cut away the dry wall, felt around, no leaks/moisture Look down between my feet, and there is a little crack in the slab and water ever so slightly coming out.... Think...

Gents need some advice Yesterday I went to use the facilities in the middle of the night and I heard a hissing noise (generally I can barely hear myself think with my wife and daughters haha jk) I lumbered around and couldnt find a louder spot, I thought it might just be my sprinklers which...

Thanks for the response! The one we have is an HA series, but it has similar clearances "Recommended Clearances: 12 inches above and below the heater 6 inches in front of and to the sides of the heater CAUTION: Combustible materials should be kept at least 24 inches away from your water heater...

Are there code restrictions against mounting a tankless water heater inside a pantry or cabinet (under the counter)? I was planning on putting an eemax 240v water heater inside the sink cabinet or inside the back of the pantry? A buddy of mine (contractor) said that I needed 6'5" clear in...

ok thank you

Can you wet vent the clothes washing machine through the non-bathroom sink on the other side of the wet wall?

so another thing I just realized, the sink on the far side of that wet wall is for a kitchen, so that means I need to move it out of the wet vent line for the toilet correct? what do you mean by unwashed 3"? we hadnt installed any cleanouts as we were relying on the washer drain as the...

Thanks Terry, I appreciate it, Definitely going to vent the washer downstream of the toilet, that will be much easier to rework just in case, I have read that part of the IPC like 30 times, where would it say that about the washer?

Here is a quick sketch of our configuration: Thanks

its very similar to this: except instead there is no floor drain and the bathtub is a washing machine drain and the leg from the toilet to the main line is 4" and the entire common drain and vent stack are 3"

We are in a odd situation, we are under IPC 2015 and the inspector is not signing off on our design The system is designed like this 4" sanitary line out < 4x4x3 Combination Wye-1/8 bend < toilet 3" common drain (horizontal wet vent for toilet) that serves 2 sinks, washer, and a shower the...
