When using the transition cement for use of ABS to PVC just use a cleaner and then the cement on both? Don't use any purple primer correct? I believe ABS you can't use the purple primer? So just clean thoroughly and cement?
TOO many codes lol. It's not being inspected so is there any problem with using it? Not gonna fall apart is it? lol. I never knew plumbing was such a PITA. They make transition cement but it's not allowed by code? They make S traps and there in my lavatory sinks and kitchen sinks but there not allowed.LOL This stuff is driving me nuts!!!
