Exit Strategy-BRRRR in 2024-Installing glass pane in garage door-EP.41

That place is looking fantastic!!! I didn't see anything except *maybe* the p-trap under the sink that could be a problem with the inspector. I don't know if the curves with the p-trap is an issue, but if the pipe coming straight down from the sink was a little shorter, you could add an adapter to it to connect it and it would be a perfect p-trap. Again, I don't know how picky he'll or she'll be with the inspection, but everything else I saw looks fantastic! You really have done a great job on that place.

Yeah that trap may be a problem…

@@es_the1 I'm glad you didn't take my comment wrong and get upset. I really am with you in spirit when you're doing that work and always am so proud of your work. But I am a Security guard, been one for almost 40 years, I notice every little thing... Sometimes that's a curse, I know. But after I get my garageominium built and move in, if I'm still in good enough shape mentally and physically, my plan is to retire from Security work and take the residential building inspection classes and get certified to inspect. When it comes to noticing small details, it seems to be my forte. So that's why I mentioned it. My solution to the p-trap situation is to shorten the drain pipe a couple of inches, add a connector to the flexible p-trap pipe and only have a single bend. At least that's what I have seen in many other builds and remodels and how I plan ok doing mine. Let us know how the inspection goes. And good luck with it.

@@es_the1 awe, bless your heart hun. You made my heart smile with that comment. Hey, I learned something today from another KZbinr DIY renovation guy, now this doesn't apply to the home you're finishing up now, but may be an issue if you do this kind of thing again. The DIY guy I watched had been adding a shower to a small area and got all the PEX installed and hooked up to his fancy shower and faucets. (He also had one of those waterfall sink contraptions and fancy faucets that were sent to him (free, I think) by a company to use.) I can't remember what the exact name of the company Lefton. Well, the cold water worked fine but for some reason the fancy programmable faucet in the kitchen and shower wasn't getting hot. He said he called them, checked the paperwork and realized that since he was using a tankless water heater it wouldn't work with the new programmable digital faucets and appliances. *Who would have thought, right!?!* I will be using a tankless water heater for my build, but I wouldn't use those fancy faucets and showers if you gave one to me. I like the 'old school' normal faucets and showers that aren't digital. They're easier to install, and troubleshoot if there's a problem. But the lesson is ALWAYS check to make sure whatever faucet/shower head ect will work with your existing water appliance, if you're using something that is unconventional.

@@MoonbeamAcres agreed! I like the basic normal faucets. not electronic faucets.
