Sorry for the flood of questions this morning... appreciate all the help very much.
My washing machine has never had an issue, but the ptrap is just below the floor (in the crawl space). I looked it up and it needs to be 6-18” off floor. Mine obviously was plumbed wrong. Should this be addressed?
I’m sure there are more code violations throughout the house, but if it’s in place and been working what would be the risk in this specific situation. My kitchen sink is the same way with the ptrap below the floor and straight pipes in the cabinet....
I literally just worked on the washing machine waste last night(!) because that line had to be raised 6”. I’ll attach a photo of what it looks like in wall. I don’t think an inspector will be seeing the laundry any time soon.
As you will see in the picture (taken a few years ago now at this point) this house has/is undergoing every possible renovation and anywhere I can save time will be a blessing so thought I’d ask if this one can slip by. All of this has been drywalled at this point. That is an old picture. Only access I have is removing drywall, and in the crawl space.
