This is wrong on so many levels. Nonsense like this encourages people to get into trouble attempting their own repairs. Please stop posting.

[@robertcoleman9225]

I never use a tee on a drain ever Ys only

[@ryanbard8555]

They spent the same amount of money lol.. but then ruined the tee (which is not at all a plumbing tee..)

[@Stevenson_Solutions]

Zero plumbers apply this technique

[@j.darrel517]

For good reason I am sure, I am not a plumber but it appears to me that that would not send the test of time. Just my opinion.

[@Bigdog1787]

Ya that will restrict the flow pressure a bit as it's not a smooth turn. This is a bad idea it's best to cut the pipe and put it in place.

[@johnxie6472]

If you do this and you flood your floors, your insurance co. will not cover the cost. Don't do this unless you have more money than time and brains.

[@Dyingkill]

Immediately voided manufacturer warranty on fitting cut, inherited any future possible secondary damage liabilty caused by improper install, and could be fined a maximum of $1000 if found by plumbing inspecter. Could this work in real world? Possibly, but why would you with all the prementioned?

[@Dyingkill]

Sure right. No licensed Plumber would attempt this....at least not admittently.😂

[@charlesg63]

Might be fine for your downspout outside, but I would never hire a plumber that did this. It's a joke.

[@Wesmancan]

I prefer to do things right. Always

[@erikbradley3050]

Real plumbers wouldn't use this technique. Maybe hank the handyman. Then they end up calling a real plumber.

[@itsabe90]

I don't think even a handyman will do this. More like I'm a powerful woman 😂

[@lastotallyawesomebleach204]

This looks like something you would expect if you hired the tweakers from behind the 7/11

[@anthonio4376]

Hence why you hear the Austin powers music playing. Gotta be a sick joke

[@stash5537]

There is nothing wrong with that so long as the hole he cut with the hole saw doesn't restrict flow in any way. It won't leak. Therefore, a plumber who doesn't know this trick is going to replace the whole area with all new parts and charge you up the wazoo for something that could be cheap in a minimum amount of time.

[@xdcxmindfreakful]

Fair. My assessment hit with the fact there’s no primer anywhere in this video even on the other stuff. Told me all I needed to know.

[@angeg6065]

Great technique for real plumbers to drum up new work

[@mitchd9997]

Without cutting the pipe. First clip cuts pipe. And good luck with the blockages when everything snags on the over hang.

[@shaneteel3815]

😂😂😂 I can't think of a single real life situation where this is a good idea

[@ebinmaine]

What about if ya wanna make a video showing a terrible way to install a T ...

[@dillonradish1120]

Venting maybe....

[@patrickmarino1654]

Drainage

[@dillonradish1120]

@patrickmarino1654 Unless you wana snake that shit every 3 weeks idk about that one. Venting the only way id even do this and id have to be a thirdworld country with no home depots for 8 bucks in parts can do it right

[@techman42]

It's PVC. PVC is cheap. Spend the extra 5$ and do it the right way.

[@mikegalvin4655]

Yep if u pay a plumber at 100 $ hour to do this the amount will be high time is money

[@ItsMe-wf6kz]

It's solvent weld so it's ABS

[@JosephMancino-jp7en]

That's not even schedule 40, that's thin wall irrigation pipe. 15 year plumber here, never do this ever......

[@3beltwesty]

An old buddy would do cool stuff like this and it often worked OK.. but a few times there were interesting failures. None was ever code inspected at all. He once ran 450 ft of indoor Romex 12-2 outdoors to another guys cabin being built. Circuit Was not on a ground fault circuit since it would trip all the time. Wire nut splices at the 250ft of Romex roll joint on open dirt pine strawin the woods. All open in the rain with the Romex NM indoor wire crossing a dirt road. When you used a skill saw at the end of the 450ft of line the lights dimmed alot. This video shows a cool hack but be darn sure what application it is used for. Many times the cost of a leak far exceeds the cost of a few pieces of pvc. Knowing exceptions and risks matters

[@gilbertgarza3114]

Why do you guys give bad advice? Try getting that passed with an inspection.

[@Dyingkill]

Why? This is Clever clickbait. Introduce a improper method to the licensed trade field and watch the clicks roll in

[@Sullivanserves]

I think people should absolutely do this

[@kennethwilbanks6929]

YES! That way, when they call me to cut that bs out and fix it right, I get paid for my time to drive to and from the parts place and get the right parts to do the job correctly, cut out that and fix it for good.

[@dumdiversaspapalbull1452]

…and for good reason.

[@johnpeinado2726]

Go ahead and feel free not to do this, ever. Thank you

[@juanaranda5160]

Y por qué no hacerlo bien y ya?

[@losduarte2229]

No real plumbers use this technique. Handy man special. Do this and your customers will eventually have to call a real plumber.

[@lastotallyawesomebleach204]

Only a meth head tweaker would do something like this.

[@Igotcats420]

I’m at first year plumbers apprentice and this is an absolute hack job. Nobody should ever do this.

[@antonypickles442]

There's 350 people who this is a good idea!! They must be mental unwell.

[@Evnflw1]

Absolutely not. A plumber would never post this 😂😂😂😂

[@denverstewart8301]

As a carpenter, I fully approve. 😂

[@matthewgryskewicz3533]

The only time I do something like this is a gravity pressure drain line from a rain barrel. Just a bad idea to do this all around.

[@stash5537]

Great job. Best thing about this clip, though, was the music!

[@user-gw2ne2tl7p]

My question to this craziness is how do you plan on snaking this line if and when it backs up with clog. Each side has to be swept into the line for a reason and that reason is so it can be serviced in the future. The snake will just come right back up the other side. Plus you had all the parts in the start to just to it right, lol

[@desgoulding7154]

Great video. Excellent.😢😮😊

[@frostyquencher]

😂 try to get this to pass inspection.

[@techniclife4015]

Good ideas

[@magheranu]

it says in the title,few plumber or none use this technique,this is a proper cowboy job

[@Kenny-zi4qj]

Good idea

[@davefranco1473]

Genius 👍

[@1941392]

🧐

[@stevecondon6968]

Maybe for a shop vacuum, but that WILL NOT hold any positive pressure over a couple of pounds.

[@ThisIsSolution]

This channel has learned how to engagement farm

[@claytonhowell5499]

This is drain pipe thickness or thin wall irrigation, please show me this on schedule 40 😂 no way. Put pressure on that and it's no Bueno!

[@robertlam-qd1xb]

You can use it on sch 40 or SDR pipe. Spears and Lesco make saddle tees.

[@jerrydavis2608]

Yes, and saddle tee's are also illegal in the real world

[@robertlam-qd1xb]

@@jerrydavis2608 no they’re not. Maybe where you’re from

[@jasonvoorhees8545]

As a plumber I laugh at thee 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@Sulaco2089]

I am an HVAC service tech, but have spent most of my 25 year career working for plumbing companies and can say without a doubt if they caught someone doing this that person would most likely lose their job because if he would do this, what else would he do that is like this And by the way, this is totally unacceptable and would violate plumbing codes and would also void any warranties that came with said pipe, and as stated in one comment already, homeowners insurance would have an automatic out when it comes to payouts on an insurance claim

[@BBv9000]

No real plumber would even think of doing this. Emergency only with proper repairs to follow ASAP.

[@joshgilchrist8567]

There's a reason why plumbers don't do that lol.... Also what in heck would you use this configuration for in plumbing, you made a dang field goal lol

[@patrickkeating7342]

Zero plumbers would do this special trick probably because it’s against the national plumbing Code. I don’t think a plumber is gonna risk his license to save two fittings.😂

[@chadruff7690]

Real plumbers don't do this, because it is not legal. I like my license.

[@dartmoorkid4797]

I can't imagine what plumber would install the original pipework like that in the first place. Built to block and not a pipe clip in sight.

[@deletedacount9030]

Great way to guarantee a call back

[@scoottersamx]

Find the code citation in any state in the USA that allows this handy Andy hack!!!!! I’ll wait!!!!!

[@wilsonjames9981]

Go and buy 2x m/f elbows for the tee .... tight get

[@plumberfromdownunder5118]

Unfortunately in some cases this will pass by the Inspector because a lot of inspectors don’t do their jobs properly! But on the Bright side of things we Plumbers will be out there to do it right when this bad boy Breaks!

[@jarheadlife]

That wasted two minutes of my day really….

[@leonurban7704]

There is a good reason real plumbers don't use this technique. They don't want "call backs".

[@1941392]

3:00 am …….. ……do you here something, it sounds like running water.

[@daylannachor9546]

😅😅

[@EnlightnMe48]

I'm not even a plumber and I would never do anything like that. I rather a smooth continuous transition. Less places for debris to get caught on.

[@jobsheatz]

I feel like fixing this right now

[@pauldown2093]

There a good reason why few prof plumbers use this technique😂😂😂😂😂

[@totten330]

No professional

[@missanthrope2]

❤😮❤ i think it may work for a 4inch pvc vertical vent pipe clean out install to run auger to clear vent pipe. I am going to try it😮 just so I do not have to ruin the rain roof jack- but me thinks it will needs coated with more primer and glue on out side edges & two screw clamps top & bottom to add support and must be readily visually and physically accessible .. Running an auger through it should not be a problem. But my concern is that the vent pipe is black and the Wye clean out I found is white PVC. So will they shtick together or do I need to find a black plastic my guess abs type? Anyone know

[@francomartinez1153]

Lijaste el tubo ?

[@techwithdan2063]

Not only is inspection going to fail but you still cut the damn pipe.

[@Nightowl77tactical]

His wife bought him tools so now his a plumber lol

[@josecaballero6781]

In son cases that doesn't work,no aplica para todo,reduce la presion del agua to many turns,dependent para que.

[@billhaas598]

As a retired, a real plumber would never, ever use this technique. Can you say illegal! Some idiot had to much thinking time on their hands!

[@x-Chicken-x]

This is a joke right?

[@lastotallyawesomebleach204]

Yeah, It would be much faster, easier, and more effective to just do it properly.

[@ramsey633]

Looks good on a bench but under a sink forget it

[@RyanWright-jz9lx]

Job built saddle

[@PeteVowels]

This application does not meet the upc or the upc which states that no approved fitting shall be modified beyond it's approved design

[@carltoncopp3032]

Brilliant in terms of generating comments and getting paid more by KZbin!

[@tscarborough2196]

Maybe something outside. DEFINITELY NOT IN HOME.

[@Cptmoneymaker]

You do know drains require a directional fitting? You could never snake that line easily.

[@FrankAlbert-vq8rs]

You've changed the fitti g into a tee not a ty as it was intended. It will not hold as the cement needs a solid surface to adhere to. Good reason we dont

[@RowdyR3DD]

They make street 90's so that you won't have to change the width in a confined space. I hope this isn't for a drain either that set up reeks disaster.

[@michaelhartman4216]

And then two days later the basement is flooded

[@Sulaco2089]

This video right here and others like it on KZbin are a huge problem with KZbin. You have no idea how many service tickets I read that start off with customer states they watched a KZbin video. And yes, if reported to the manufacturer of the equipment that was worked on could void the warranty on that piece of equipment, not worked on by qualified personnel. I understand service calls, and such are expensive, but fixing your mistakes will end up costing you double at minimum if not more.

[@azariahzahar8929]

For emergencies and ONLY for wastewater pipes.

[@codysmackdown1]

This is so so much work when u can spend the money on all that pvc why wouldn't you just get the correct ones...

[@ed370zx3]

If poo can get through, it’s a wrap!😂

[@missanthrope2]

❤😮❤ who ever the plumber was that plumb my plumb did something wrong ? Because the toilet wont flush just fills with water . the bath drains fine fast the lavatory causes the toilet filled with water to bubble air if you dump a gallon of water in sink the toilet then drains but pulls all the water from toilet then gasps like a straw sound when empty slushy ? Anybody have a clue.

[@bockenfels2021]

Please help to inform code compliance with your specific application? I have provided the IPC 2023 link and can not find where this application will pass code. Thanks in advance

[@davidbyer9432]

Not even Bob the Builder would do that ..dam

[@afathersfight]

Probably because that's nit plumbing. That's being a hack, it's against code.

[@dmarynuk76]

Ya... there's a reason why it's not done lol actually many reasons.

[@stevemichaels3188]

This is the type of plumbing commonly used in restaurants by employees who can’t get their cheap ass managers to hire a plumber. I work in restaurants installing commercial equipment and I see this type of thing very regularly.

[@mahto54]

With good reason!! 😂

[@cristianhrvatin3543]

What happens when you apply air pressure to remove a clog.

[@stevewobig103]

For an air line maybe, but not sewage...

[@danielgarska3507]

Minimal exposure on the glueing surface.

[@nickgamble4544]

Without cutting the pipe lol. Proceeds to cut the fitting and drill a hole in the pipe. Granted this would work I'm sure but it will need so much glue and it most likely would hold up very long as it isn't a proper joint. They do make fittings for this application. Granted you'd almost never ever have an application like this. Yall don't do this

[@MegaReddevil71]

Quicker to put the t piece in the correct way that's horsecrap

[@74stang2togo]

Why would you do all of that extra work for a questionable result?

[@TryplJTriptz]

It's illegal in MA to use this technique

[@conaaron]

The T has about an 1/8” of glue surface at the edges of the cut. Apply this anywhere there’s high flow and you will have a leak. This is a poor repair idea.

[@brianaskey3164]

It's what a "Harry the Hack Homeowner" would do. Not a pro.🤭

[@creese2180]

So many internet plumbers..... 😂 yall funny af thinking this is supply or has pressure 😅 internet plumbers are great 😊

[@zachariusthethird6627]

I'm a tradie plumber and gasfitter and I'd say if you really really had to then maybe this would be okay on a vent. Maybe.

[@robertlam-qd1xb]

What he did was make a saddle tee. I have been using them in the irrigation industry for 30 years. Spears, Lesco and many other pipe fitting companies make them. I wouldn’t trust this for anything

[@sinongnanaymo1]

Another reason not to trust yt content😂

[@davidsimpson2547]

I wonder how much money this guy has made from doing it wrong and getting comments on it?

[@aburahaff]

It may leak after

[@Loafin2010]

Good for about 3 months in the Sun in the glue turns loose. 😂

[@Slipmahoney21]

If it does not leak immediately.. it will soon!

[@johntrue7113]

That is how nobody should do plumbing, ever. In fact, this method should be erased from reality, never to be thought of again.

[@Andri101]

Super

[@user-jv7zp9sc8q]

At the 50 PSI as the standard water pressure, this thing got blow out like a joke.

[@zebfischer6088]

You dont run 50psi through pvc drain ever. But this is still bound to fail and should never be done.

[@brentd2070]

Well theres a leak. Didnt even prime it.

[@user-ud8gg6rl1y]

Going through all that I done had their teeth cut in by now

[@manuelortiz5164]

There is a reason plummers don't use this technique.
