Hi, all.
Bit of a newbie but been using this resource for years. Thanks, Terry. The internet at it's best. Question - I'm remodeling the family kitchen and could use some guidance. I'm replacing the Sanitary T for the sink and planned on using no-hub couplings to mate new ABS to the existing galvanized vent and cast iron drain in the floor
I made the cuts but the remaining galvanized "stub" slid right out of the cast-ion hub. That was unexpected. I thought about cleaning out the lead and oakum, and using a donut to make the connection. But...it will all be covered and I'm not sure that meets code? Thoughts?
Or, is my better option to cut out, and replace the entire CI cleanout, replace with ABS and make my connection down stream under the house?
Insight always appreciated.
