Manibloc Vanguard in crawl space??

[Master Plumber Mark]

Got a fellow who wants to install a manibloc
vanguard system with the manifold in the crawl space
of a new home

2 1/2 bathrooms....and I cant talk him out of it...

except for th obvious problem of having to go
into the crawl space to turn off indivudual fixtures....

I have not asked an inspector in our town yet. but

are their any reasons that this could not be done??

I don't see any problem with sticking it in the crawl space aside from it being a crawl space. I assume he just doesn't want to see it for what ever reason. I'm sure he will hate it if he ever needs to turn something off.

thank you

well , the fellow would not let me do the job for him

and now I think that he regrets it...

I go out to his framed house and tell him he needs to at
least come up in a closet and give the place a main
shut off valve comming into the home...
its a pretty nice crawl space..and he intends to put shut
off valves at each fixture anyway...

so why install the mainbloc>>>???


now they want a price to do
the drain lines for them...

theya re not afraid of screwing up the water ines,
but are scared of the drain lines

go figure..

In Illinois, it doesn't matter where the manabloc is, each fixture needs it's own supply stop.
