Hi,
Everything is PVC. Here is the current setup. The drain pipe coming out of the wall is 2 1/2". Then a reducer coupling to a 2" pipe. Then a 2" J-bend, and finally an adapter that connects the 1 1/2" tail piece.
I'm about to install a new double-bowl sink. I got two 1 1/2" tail pieces, a center outlet kit (1 1/2"), a p-trap kit (1 1/2").
Because of spacing issue, I don't think I can use any part of the 2" pipe. I'll need to connect the 1 1/2" wall tube (from the p-trap kit) directly to the 2 1/2" pipe.
Questions:
1) is there any problem to go from 1 1/2" (p-trap kit) to 2 1/2" ??
2) Are there slip-joint adapter out there ? will I need some kind of reducer coupling before the slip-joint ?
3) i have a dishwasher and air trap. Is it okay to use clear vinyl tubing (5/8") between air trap and the tailpiece ? Is this material strong enough ?
Please be specific what parts I need... I'm a newbie
thanks !!!
