Im planning on putting one of these in but i have a spare cold pex like that i could hook to but id have to run a new hot line..i dont really need hot anyways so i figured id just run cold to the sink but i want to find one that has just one handle for the water so it doesnt look screwed up having only cold. If i have a p-trap already on the wall do i need another one under the sink as well?
@Al_Z.Heimer2 жыл бұрын
Question: Did you attach the tub to the wall? Like you, I attached to floor. For me, I used diamond drill through tile, then used spax construction screw 2 1/2 inches with washer. I moved the legs a bit before drilling, easier on tile with starting at 45 degree angle. Mine was just fixing what an inspector found...advised that I attach to floor or wall. I had to put a new nut and gasket that went into the p trap. I have another laundry room downstairs, and I'll have to check it out too. Nice video.

@AndreaUrban-me4 жыл бұрын
I have that exact laundry sink that I am planning to install in my garage. My issue is the drain height. This will be a new installation. The drain was stubbed out at 24 inches off the floor, probably because I was thinking about a shallow sink at the time, but the utility sink drain is sitting at 19 inches. Essentially the drain would have to run uphill to make that work. And since I don't see gravity reversing in my lifetime I'll have to create a hack for this. I was thinking about a platform that could be stood on so that the sink would still be at a comfortable height when using it. I could just put the sink itself on risers but that would put the edge at 39 inches if I raised it to give me an inch of extra height for the sink. What would you do in this situation? I'm set on the utility sink and not switching to a cabinet sink.
@JoseHernandez-tz6xl3 жыл бұрын
They sell a pump that connects under the sink so you can pump the water uphill to your pvc pipes. That takes care of all your problems.
@chattsignal2 жыл бұрын
uh oh…. im about to use this exact sink for a temp kitchen remodel… my drain plumbing is in and now i wonder if im going to have a problem like u describe…. and… is it necessary to add the vent for the temporary set up?
@AndreaUrban-me2 жыл бұрын
@@chattsignal I did end up building a platform that raised the sink up to a height compatible with where the plumbing was. Not ideal but a workable solution. It was more palatable than tearing out the ceiling inside and core drilling through our ICF concrete walls. For your temporary sink during remodel risers to lift the sink might be a simpler option. So I would adjust the sink rather than the plumbing in your case. Good luck with your remodel.

I don't think the auto vent matter for draining Its code b/c flushing toilets will suck your traps dry. (they use your sink as a vent) Down the line from that wash tub there are plenty of vents, no air lock issues. .

@pida96693 жыл бұрын
He secured the four feet into the concrete floor using Tapcon screws, which should provide a lot of stability to the laundry tub. If that isn't enough, then maybe try using a couple of metal L-bracket with one side secured to the wall (using wall anchors if necessary) and the other side secured to the underside of the sink where you would normally put your soap and detergents.

@darksoulenvoy9323 жыл бұрын
The only reasons I can think homes would need one would be to drain a washing machine into it or to wash a dog. If you don’t need to do either of those then you probably don’t need one 🤷🏽♂️
@Idontwantone9502 жыл бұрын
It's basically just a sink you can abuse. I use mine to wash paintbrushes, soak dirty clothes which keeps my bathroom and kitchen sinks free to use, rinse off anything I wouldn't want to rinse in my kitchen or is too big for the bathroom sink, plus I don't have to hunch over the tub and it's right next to my washing machine so I don't have to haul wet items down to my basement. Do you need one? No, you could just use your other sinks/tub or a plastic tub.
