Can you have the vent y 8 feet down the line from the 90 coming from the toilet?

Thank you am greatly appreciated

Amazing detail and easy to understand imagery. Very well done. Thank you.

I never understood why people install a cleanout under the toilet. If that line is completely blocked I am not opening that cleanout to let all that sewage pour out inside of my house. Just go through the toilet. Useless

Dylan, can you help plan out the upgrade of an historic house? I have unfinished areas and areas to be updated like the empty kitchen, and need more bathrooms, a real full bathroom, kitchen drains, laundry maybe on the second floor, well everything. Do you make house calls? I could use some help in the planning parts. I downloaded your papers many years ago and use the pictures often. I was planning on putting a laundry on the back porch once I finish cutting out the gigantic oil burning sheet metal vents because the HVAC guys won’t use them so I have no heat, or AC but Ned bathrooms and laundry. So then I thought why not put it upstairs…. Ugh help please.

I washed out my vent stacks on the roof using a garden hose. Seems to have fixed the problem of the toilet P-trap being drained when the washer would drain into the main sewer pipe and then stink up the bathroom with sewer gas.

Former Montana state plumbing inspector, it would be nice to see more videos like this. So many homeowners wanting to do their own work get it wrong and wind up spending three to four times the cost. And when in doubt, call your local inspector. They are more than happy to come out and look and it WON'T COST A DIME! Better to be safe than have a real mess in the end.

I’ve been a plumbing wholesaler over 30 years. This is the best introduction to venting a fixture I’ve seen.

Dude this is an amazing video wow

What software is in this video?

Why not put a joint in where the faucet can screw on in case of another failure down the road then the drywall would not have to be cut out

Thank you for referencing the code. Very much appreciated.

Has anyone used sharkbite for this.

Best plumbing videos I've found. Sad there there are not more.

EXCELLENT VIDEO!! straight forward and in plain English. Bravo

Thanks You

Insulate the copper pipe with foam so it doesn’t fail again

Bro--FWIW--I always use a big piece of white bread (no rust please!) to 'plug up' lines that have residual water in them before I solder. Like the line to your final coupling getting soldered. When done just turn on the water and the bread will liquify and disappear out the faucet when turned on.

would you not vent the toilet before the actual toilet drain inlet ?

Nice. New sub

Thanks

What if the toilet is directly above the stack and no horizontal run is needed? Then where do I vent?

That angle doesn't affect the join between the copper pipe and faucet when using shark bite??

Very well done video, thanks!!

4" slop 1/8

In Australia if homeowners performed their own plumbing work especially on sewer drainage systems, hot or cold water supply or gas fitting works they would be subject to prosecution by law. The only advice a Plumbing Inspection would give a homeowner here is to use a licensed Plumber for all of the above work and to ensure the Plumber provides a Certificate of Compliance upon completion of the work.

Thank you!! Sub!

Very good video demonstration

Thanks, very helpful!!!

I watched this video because I dropped something in my shower bathroom would it matter if I just let it go or should I try to save it?

Thanks for letting us know this knowledge from you.

Good work

I'm dealing with a Arrowhead hydrant with a leaky stem that is threaded on the inside as well as the outside. There is a 90 degree elbow attached to it with threads on the hydrant side and a soldered coupling to a copper pipe on the other end. Ideally I just need to replace the stem but there are no stem kits for the length hydrant so I need to purchase the whole thing. Theoretically I should be able to unscrew the old hydrant but it's tricky as I don't want to apply force to the elbow. Alternately I could just strip the stem out of the new hydrant and leave the existing body in place. I am still deciding what the best approach is.

this is really good. good work.

Im looking forward to your rebuild repair video

Just save my live New follower and like 🔥🙏🏼

I appreciate you identifying IPC/UPC codes!!

very good

Excellent video thanks 👍🏻

❤❤

Great video! Nice graphics also. How did you know it was a sweat connect vs threaded from the outside? I need to replace an outside faucet and cannot tell - afraid to crank it with a wrench to see and risk breaking it.

Wait....so....should you not try to future proof that as much as possible for easier disassembly going forward? As a homeowner, I feel as though you should have utilized a different connection method(if it exists) for if ever the home owner is in this situation again. Now if it happens, the cutting procedure has to occur all over again. Is there not a design that us as homeowners can use that can just unscrew?? I noticed that there is threading on the pipe of the spigot, so that hints to me that there is. How come you didn't use that??

I like doing things correctly. But I'll bet many homes, including mine have plumbing that isn't to code. And guess what, everything still runs downhill.

This is great, but how come there isn't a depiction of the water supply to the toilet?

For the vertical pipes that run up the wall where the toilet sits, does this apply for 2 story houses? What about 1-story homes, is that vertical pipe necessary? I’d think everything would flow downward, so why would there be a pipe going up?

Thanks a Bunch!

Nice video. Where did you get those adhesive heat pads, and what is the brand? Thanks

What is the app you are using? I need to build my bathroom from the ground up.

Great video. Any thoughts on quarter turn valves vs the style you've got shown in this video? Thanks
