DIY Kitchen Plumbing 101 | Connecting Plumbing & Mounting the Sink

[@michaelgonzalez8863]

I was trying to tell you that your hot water line was slowly sliding down the hole . Great video as usual !

[@denniscordova9920]

Hey jeff, love your videos. As a plumber, The only problem i can see with this is that you can't have a trap drain to a 90 without 1st entering a sanitary tee. This essentially creates an s trap which is against all plumbing codes. It can still be corrected, just cut off that 90, install a 2"x1.5"×1.5" sanitary tee, install an air admittance valve or a studer vent up as high as you can get it under the countertop. Cheers!

[@maceo2012]

Does the macerator cover the venting?

[@conradcoolerfiend]

@@maceo2012 no

[@aaronsheats3885]

i was thinking the same thing about the trap, im not sure but it looks more like a s trap than a p trap as it goes down then up then down again, that would pull everything form the trap and allow the fumes and smell to come up through the sink if i remember right

[@dylan-nguyen]

@@aaronsheats3885 ya there’s also no vent

[@christiansmanchannel1105]

Thank you Jeff for making these videos. This year I have switched professions and now I am renovating and selling mobile homes. There is a little handy man inside of me and it has been very exciting. Right now I need education on all the little tips and tricks that there are in the industry. Your videos have been a daily diet of mine to educate and broaden my skills. Thank you for your thoroughness.

[@EFFI-Spark]

I installed my kitchen sink by watching your video. much appreciation to you😀

[@robertintexas]

I had a new countertop/sink installed. The plumbing was my responsibility. The old sinks had the drains dead center. The new sinks had the drains more towards the rear, plus they were deeper, ;eaving less room to work. None of the old plumbing lines or connections lined up. I had to cut it off at the wall and run all new. I wish I coulda done it this fast. 3 or 4 trips the the hardware store and a few busted knuckles later, and I finally got it. You're an inspiration, Jeff.

[@kentonpope1757]

You are exactly what I've been looking for. Brother, the level of detail is exactly what I needed. I love your "tricks" of the trade, money saving tips, and your supplier list just tops it all off! You are the real deal! Thanks for all you do!

[@CurvedSlightly]

Jeff, it's the little touches like lining up the name that turn a good job, into an exceptional job. It shows you're thinking about every feature.

[@joshgust32]

As always, great info. I didn't see the part about adding the primary support for the heavy sink when silicone isn't enough adhesive strength. Is that in a different video?

[@aminal-selevani1875]

It happened that I was just watching your Shed A-Z 4 hrs vid “which is literally ur first Video I’ve watched” while you uploaded this one. I can’t describe how Joyful and Knowledgeable it was! without mentioning how respectful, honest, and humble person you are! From now on, I proudly considering myself one of your primary subscribers, and a huge fan of your knowledge and great work skills. Thanks a lot for your awesome videos Jeff.

[@amypatterson9491]

Thank you Thank you!!! Fantastic teaching! I actually wanted to continue watching your video, unlike most of the videos I watch seriously, thank you so much! Continue to post. Can’t wait to see what I learned in the future.

[@davidb6691]

Hey there Jeff. I watch this video and I thoroughly enjoyed all of it. I worked for a granite company a while back and the way we hung out sinks was by laying a 2 by on the counter just like you have them through the drain hole we ran two white zip ties that wrapped around another smaller 2 by below the sink. We would tighten the zip ties with one hand while positioning the already siliconed sink into place. We would also flip the board on the counter onto it’s rib to tighten the compression even more. I really liked your method as well I just thought maybe id help someone that’s in a pinch and didn’t have threaded rods on hand.

[@boydminer]

During my latest home renovation the granite counter top company attached my kitchen sink using a similar technique but instead of using threaded rods with nuts and washer to lift an hold the sink in place, they used 2x4 scraps in a way similar to what you did, but instead of threaded rods, they used a tie down strap with ratcheting handle to lift the sink into place and to hold it while the glue was setting. The tie down strap made it much faster to lift and hold the sink into place and it appeared much easier than using threaded rods with nuts which you used. Have you ever used tie down straps with the ratcheting handle to lift a sink in place? I would recommend that you give it a try, it eliminates the need to drill holes through the 2x4s and the length of rods would not be an issue. To use the tie down strap simply wrap the strap around the 2x4s through the sink hole and pull the extra strap material through the ratchet handle until the sink is lifted up close to the counter, once it is lifted close to the counter you can then start using the ratcheting handle to lift the sink into its final destination or for the last few inches. Thank you for you videos, I have learned so much that has helped me remodel my sons home during the last few months. you have saved me a lot of work by teaching me how to do things right the first time with the correct tools.

[@Gerard1to]

Dude, if only you knew.. there's more to plumbing than plastic and glue. Just like knowing how to nail two pieces of wood together doesn't mean you pass as a journeyman carpenter. I'm sure this was tongue in cheek but its disrespectful to those who actually dedicate themselves to the trade and are actually a skilled tradesman as opposed to a handyman

[@ceciliaross3830]

Jeff has made all phases of our remodels easier. What would Jeff do is our mantra

[@billvojtech5686]

Yeah, I was looking for the additional support info as well. My counter guys installed my sink with silicone and little clips that screwed into the underside of the quartz. I got a clogged drain and when drain cleaner failed, I got the plunger out. I tore the sink loose from the counter. When I got the sink, I bought a cable assembly that screws into the sides of the cabinet, but the counter guys wouldn't use it. Since I tore it off, I bought some rigid braces that bolt to the cabinet sides and angle up and support the rim. I have not installed them yet. The clips are still holding, but just barely. I sealed the gap with painters tape to keep the water from flooding the cabinet. The threaded rod/2x4 trick will be helpful when I finally fix my sink. Thanks.

[@SaltySeed]

Yeah I had to rewind the video twice looking for the "extra sink support" it's not in the video 😭

[@p0nzypilato]

Awesome video! Watched this a couple times and actually rewinding @ 11:25 when you mentioned about the "supporting rod".......Just a quick question, where did you put the "supporting rod" on top of using your favorite silicone NUFLEX 302. I was expecting there will be another "finishing rod" to be installed as an additional support for the weight of the sink/water/dishes. Or the silicone will do the trick to hold all that weight? Thanks in advance..... awesome channel!!!!

[@amazinazian55555]

Thanks for the education, this will help me in two different projects, one for upgrading my kitchen sink and second is to upgrade the steel pipes in my bathroom sink (hot water pipe is clogged), for that I'm going to go with the pex system instead of tearing down the 1940s plaster wall.

[@markjohnson9910]

Minor suggestion, when you tightened the large nut to the bottom of the sink, rotate the chanel locks 180 degrees. So the force is applied to the stationary part of the tool. Just like using the crescent wrench.

[@jamesfriesen6085]

Thank you Ernie. Very informative.

[@CurvedSlightly]

Tip Jeff to roughen the ends of the waste pipe with sandpaper, emery cloth etc so that the adhesive can grip to the pipe making a really tight joint.

[@Candisa]

It's a solvent, not a glue, so sanding doesn't matter since it's pretty much chemically welded together.

[@jerrygeorge3981]

My experience is i am a certified maintenance engineer through operating engineers. When you attached the elbow to the drainpipe, you essentially created an S trap which could allow a syphoning situation. I would suggest instead of an elbow , use a comby tee with a short riser to terminate a syphon possibility. UPC doesn’t allow an S trap. Great video !!!

[@jamesgarvey2090]

I believe you are mostly correct, there should be a comby tee with a short riser capped with an AAV valve if local code allows. The only thing that might make his setup different is the macerator pump, I believe some Saniflo products are considered "contained units" not requiring a vent themselves but I'm not sure if or how that might affect the pipe coming from the sink.

[@tredogzs]

Showing DIY... and creating S traps without vent.... not a great idea

[@Rebasepoiss]

Over here in Estonia (and probably elsewhere in Europe as well) dishwashers use cold water as intake, rather than hot water so the machine itself can regulate the temperature depending on the cycle being used.

[@tomaskot9278]

Exactly, how can the dishwasher use colder water for lets say a delicate programm if it receives always fully hot water. And also it can be more economical to let the dishwasher heat the water directly in place than when you heat it in a tank and then it goes several meters it noninsulated water pipes (seen in this video) where it completely cools down in few minutes...

[@conradcoolerfiend]

Not sure what to tell you. Our machines just use hot.

[@conradcoolerfiend]

@@tomaskot9278 water cooling down in the pipe is gone in 15 seconds, same as a shower

[@tomaskot9278]

@@conradcoolerfiend What do you mean by this? In your shower, the hot water in the pipes cools down in 15 seconds?

[@conradcoolerfiend]

@@tomaskot9278 no. I mean, when you turn on the shower on hot, but the water is cold, because it cooled down sitting in the pipes. That cold water only lasts 15 seconds until it gets flushed out . After that the shower is hot. So 15 seconds of cold water for a dishwasher who cares

Hey Jeff.. Really nice video.. I thought I would tell you that here in Denmark, we do not ever glue the drain pibes under the sink and we do not feed the dishwasher hot water.. We also always have the hot water on the left side.. other than that, we do plumbing the exact same way.. best regards Morten (a fan from Denmark)

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

we usually have the hot on the left as well. but since I was using the color coded pipe i put it on the same side as the dishwasher. that way the lines don;'t cross and cause condensation and risk damaging the cabinet over time. Cheers to Denmark!

For the small (13' x 12') kitchen, I'm considering saving floor design space by downsizing on some of the appliances. Namely, for the dishwasher, I'm considering installing an 18" wide unit...

[@conradcoolerfiend]

Not sure I agree with using teflon tape on those P trap union threads. For anyone confused, teflon tape is typically used on plumbing connections that rely on the threads to create the seal. If there is a rubber washer, or slip joint nut as in the case with a P trap, the threads are not what's creating the seal, ergo do not need teflon tape. However Jeff is using the tape in an unconventional way, to create more friction when bottoming out the threads. However, I don't think you want the threads to bottom out early and risk not fully squeezing the slip joint nut. And I have never had leak problems just hand tightening a P trap. Just my 2 cents, it's unnecessary. Although it's not a giant sin either way, both will function.

[@johnnywilkinson9736]

So the sink is just supported by silicon adhesive? I fit Ruvati sinks and follow manufacturers clear instructions to fit a pair of timbers left-to-right underneath. The sink is heavy and way heavier with a good depth of water.

A couple of questions: 1) Isn't the position of the P trap too low? It's nearly at the bottom of the cabinet which would make the cleanout nearly impossible to use without making a big mess. 2) How did you attach the hot and cold water lines to the cabinet so they wouldn't move around? 3) How would a garbage disposal fit into the under sink configuration you have there?
