can you put in link for the products used in video

Hello Tom, excellent interview, I have learned a lot from your videos. Can you maybe recommend similar pages where I could learn HVAC SYSTEMS?

thank you. you are an awesome tacher

Thanks this helped me

What is the brand of toilet flange. Please share the catalog

Why not put a the backwater valve / Cleanout at the main line outside of the house and close to the street to avoid the whole house having any issue whatsoever.

Thank you for your time and information. Mobile, AL.

My last tank, vertically mounted in copper pipe failed due to heavy rusting caused by galvanic corrosion between the copper and steel. The female copper fitting was so loaded with corrosion products from the steel that I had to replace it to get a good seal. I have a 3/4 F-M NPT PVC fitting that I'm going to install between the tank and copper to electrically isolate them.

very good video

"909.1 Distance Of Trap From Vent" is that applicable to wet vents or is that for dry venting only???

1:37 “If I know my [water system pressure] is at 66 psi, I should fill up the air chamber to 65 psi” What “water system pressure” is this referring to? I’ve seen videos saying you should measure the pressure using an outside bib. But both ChatGPT and an HVAC person I spoke to say that the pressure you should set the expansion tank to is the cold water pressure of the boiler system, not the water system of the house. This means the tank should be set to anywhere between 12-15 psi, not 50-60+ which is what an outside faucet would be. So I’m confused. Which one is it?

Day after christmas two years ago, I got a call from my wife at work stating that water was leaking down from the ceiling in our bathroom; our 2nd floor bathroom is right above our master bathroom. I called the plumber and he was PO'ed b/c he said that the flange extender on it was all wrong; house was built in 2007 and we bought it in 2019. We had our insurance people come out and take a look and they fixed everything, but the subfloor had rotted out. Most likely, during building, the flange had been cut flush with the subfloor and then when the tile people finished, the plumber came back and installed the toilet but then had to install the extender to make it sit right and eventually that failed. As things were finishing up on the repairs, I thought to myself, "well, if they installed that one wrong, what about the others...?" So I had the plumbers pull all the other toilets (three on the 1st floor) and all three were the same way. Our master toilet's subfloor was completely gone and the toilet was only being up the tile! I had them repair everything and then had the plumber cut the pipe way high. Then when the tile floor was done, I had them cut the pipe to the floor and then install the flange on top of the finished floor, as you're supposed to!

Why would you glue a pea trap on? I like to be able to unscrew mine and clean it out

Will this book benefit me in the state of Michigan?

Hey Tom! Your videos really helped me get my license. Thanks so much for what you are doing. Looking forward to an in depth review of the IFGC

You have also helped me out a lot too! Thank you again for uploading these awesome videos.

Hello, how is the flap attached to main body? Will it stay in place in a severely overcharged sewer system from torrential rain. I saw a Oatey brand, and it looked like the flap could be lifted easily up and off. Didn't seem like a good design ,if I am actually seeing it correctly. Thanks

Is the diagonal the roll???

Awesome video! Thanks!

Awesome video! Very informative. Thank you!

Your videos are the best! Thank you so much.

Your videos are the best! Thank you for the break-down of this information

Hi Plumber-Tom, thank you for blessing us with your knowledge through these videos. Your videos are truly amazing! I'm a visual learner so the fact that you include pictures with your presentations allows me to understand the information so much better. I am forever grateful!

So helpful, thank you!!

do you have gas fitting vidios ?

Michigan wont let you to take the test with your book if it’s been highlighted.

Well thats wrong, the toilet should be the most downstream fixture on a wet vent, use a 3x2 double wye to connect all three and do it right, the IPC is a joke

Toilet needs to be installed downstream of all the other fixtures on a wet vent

On a tankless it’s actually just a pressure valve. It looks the same. Not supposed to be a T&P

If slope is not given, how do you know by code what to do? Ran into this on my Masters test. No slope and it could of been 4" or 3" depending.

Hi Tom, thanks for everything you do for code content. I’m currently studying to become a building inspector, and your videos really help a lot. Do you still plan to do Code Mastery videos? Also, are you going to cover the IFGC?

When determining pipe size on building drain with 48.5 DFUs i see it should be 4”. But if i move past two branch lines that have 9.5 DFUs do i move to a 3”? Also if no slope is given what slop size should i use?

Keep spreading the word Tom!

OMG your music is so loud, so inappropriate, so distracting!

Hey Tom amazing content! I'm wondering if there is a limit to the maximum number of studs that you can drill through on a NON-bearing wall?

You has video the water gas west sizing

Hey Tom, are you able to do a video on hanger spacing for the different types of piping? Copper, xfr, cast,

Inquiry: Water heater closet located and access at exterior wall. I added drain pan for extra precaution, pan drains straight outside. With the pan installed, water heater does not touch back finished wall. I added two 2x4 horizontal bracing to back wall to allow water heater to contact 2x4 bracing, then earthquake strap. Okay with the use of horizontal bracing build up? Probably just make sure horizontal brace have multiple fastening point into the studs it spans across? Have not finished viewing all your videos, but hoping to see water heater insulation install instruction with earthquake strap. Unsure if strapping around insulation is allowed or strap needs to have direct contact with heater and having to cut insulation into 3 sections. Look forward to learning the terminology and plumbing code interpretation you convert into visual format. Thank you!

What country u from..beg u pls..send me like that...godbless

I badly nid...im from phil. 3" pvc backwater valve id ok for me

Beautifully explained,so helpful.thankyou

hi Tom

May I ask why in 9:41 the developed length does not start from the bottom level where the vent connects to the drain as the "farthest point"? To me that seems to include the entire length of the vent.

May I ask why in the diagram showing at 15:36 does not provide vent for some of WC? I can see some WC and UR are using common vent, but some WC do not seem to have their own vents.

Wow! One of the best hole drillers I ever saw! :) Anyway, seriously, good video.

Is the fitting allowance, the rest of the elbow compared to where the pipe actually is in the connection

Hi. In our box, there is water leaking from a hole in the upper box into the drain pipe. Is that normal? We just noticed today. I'm wondering if that's is why our laundry room smells like mildew . Thanks
