amazing explanation and visual (as a teacher) I give t an A+++. I have plumbing issues, so I was researching trying to understand the plumbing system in a visual, so I can understand what the plumber is talking about. The plumbing industry has its own vocabulary so when a plumber explains with their vocab terms a regular customer, like me, has no clue what he is talking about. This video helped me to visualize and ask the right questions before I decide to spend thousands of dollars. Thank you!!!! God bless you and your family.

Seal up the holes. no cheapo fan for bathroom. I would run the vent in kitchen to near the top of roof. Perfect place for ice dam and if a metal roof could tear it off with ice or snow. cleanout near exit point.

Where I live the toilet flange sits on TOP of the finish floor. Also the vanity drain requires a later line not a direct sanitary tee fitting. You have a "S" trap, like the kitchen sink line you did. Also you can vent the whole bathroom with the 3" line, you don't have to vent each fixture separately. Drain lines on a 3" vent can be 10ft away, 2" can be 6-8ft away, 1 1/2 6ft away or less. Great looking job though.

I really like how you broke down everything you were explaining and the time you took going downstairs so we could get a clear understanding of each part you were talking about before moving on to the next thing; even when they were in the same room. And... you did it without editing & splicing your video. I felt like I was walking around your house with you. I wish I was because I would've loved to pick your brain. My mom is having her drains redone & because I have work a little in construction, I was picked to be the one to talk to the crew. They put a 3" drain in for the kitchen sink. I thought it was supposed to be smaller. Because of what the head guy originally had told me about what was part of her original problem. But, the crew used the 3" anyway. When I asked about it, he said it would be fine. Please tell me what you think. I'm hoping to find out before the inspection & concrete for fixing the floor is scheduled.

#1 closet flange should sit on finished floor, this will eliminate the need for a thicker or double wax ring. #2 wet venting a washer box over a lavatory sink that sits lower is bad , you will condone getting water backed up into the sink. #3 your waste line requires straps every 4 feet. #5 for every 90 degree turn in the waste line, requires a clean out.

First of all, thankyou for taking the time to create this video. Secondly, in my opinion you did a good job on the plumbing layout and connections. I'm a licensed builder but not a licensed plumber but here in SC I am allowed to do all my own framing, plumbing, electrical, and hvac work on this new home I am building. I watched your video because I had a few questions regarding plumbing vents. Some of the comments were helpful but a few I disliked because they came across as condescending.... eg.- the one fellow that criticized your gluing and purple priming work. Basically, he was justifying the exorbitant charges to his customers because he could prime and glue pvc perfectly. I smell bullshit.... I'm sure he was a "union" plumber.... You are just like most people, wanting to save money- that's great! Nothing wrong with that at all! I've reached the conclusion that the differences of opinion are due to differences of code ( UPC vs International code), what region of the US you live, and if you are from Canada vs the US. Believe it or not, in SC, in most bathrooms you can put all the fixtures on a 1 1/2" vent. I know that for a fact because I talked to a local plumber who's been doing rough ins for 40 years. They go by international code here. Thats not to say I would do it that way, but thats the minimum ( based on the average bathroom llayout). I'm sure on larger bathrooms it would be 2 or 3 inch. I won't go less than 2 inch vent for a bathroom. If your on a tight budget though it would be okay

Bob, thanks so much for your message, greatly appreciated!! Definitely comes down to some differences in code for sure (especially since we passed with flying colors, lol).

the toilet flange should sit ontop of the finish floor or atlease 1/4 above the finish floor, the flange as is now will not allow for proper sealing between the toilet and flange with a wax ring as the wax ring may not reach all the way dow to the flange and compress to create the seal. you may need to get a tall wax ring and hope it fits , just food for thought for those of you looking to install your own toilet flange.

Really explicit video, showing and describing what I need to know. When I check a look at the size of your washing machine water inlets I realize they were 3/4 of an inch, so I looked at mine and the bastards put a half inch hose on a 3/4 in line. When you buy a house that has been flipped, you can expect extremely cheap connections. I have to completely redo the entire bathroom because they cheaped out on just a few things that caused the addition to sag and split from the rest of the house. So I need to move the bathroom and destroy the addition and this video helps me to understand what it's like simply to redo a new bathroom
