As always, a great video chock full of useful information and helpful tips. I started working with my dad, a master carpenter and contractor in the mid-1960s. After working with him for about 8 years, I worked my way through college and grad school by doing DIY-type jobs. I was cheap and available, so I was busy. The running joke among my faculty advisors was that they were going to see that I failed my exams so they could get more of their projects done. I have been doing this type of work on and off for about 55 years. Now to my point... Though I have a lot of relevant experience building, remodeling and repairing, etc., I still learn something new and useful every time I watch one of your videos. Every damn time. I really appreciate it. Thank you!

Using t tape on the ptrap unions and the clean out for the ptrap which is wrong its completely unnecessary.

@@manorhillmusic4285 yeah I could see pipe dope on those threads as a lubricant. I know guys who do this on compression fittings but tape doesn’t really do that. I’ve known plumbers who will tell apprentices to put tape or dope on every thread. The thinking is if they put them on everything then they’ll never choose wrong threads. I don’t like this approach. If an apprentice doesn’t understand which threads seal and which don’t they shouldn’t be working by themselves.

@@manorhillmusic4285 I'm a dyi with experience in the Jack of all box but by no means a trained master plumber, etc. I'm pretty good but know my place and show respect and admiration to pros and pro workmanship. I have enormous respect for people who made plumbing (or whatever constr trade) their life's work. But I couldn't even watch past the 8 minute mark. I've found copper crimp rings on pex better than copper and solder (which I love to do), why replace it? (ok to Tee it off I suppose) but when he started on about cutting out his 2 inch vent to make it a 1 1/2" vent for space.... well my marbles started rattling around and around... Doesn't seem like many are really calling him out on much so I'm probably showing my amateurishness or most pro's are bailing out early too. The only true plumbers watching this are probably into the horror show of it all....LOL. I can just imagine her rushing into the room exclaiming, "Whats the matter honey are you alright?!?! The ambulance is on the way, hang on my love!" Well, I'm always a critic (that screen name is still banned years ago for nothing really actually terrible).... So I behave for now. But I can't afford to learn this fellows habits. No way. It all feels just wrongish, spending money that normal people just don't have and all that... Best regards to all the pros. I'm always learning something amazing from you and fixing things that I can't afford to call you for, nothing personal but if I can't pay you I certainly am not going to humiliate myself and disrespect you by calling.... TTFN! Be ready. PS I'm totally open to hear any warning messages, hints, tricks, tips, etc that you pros and masters might have to say about copper pex rings. I would perhaps go with the stretchy rings and the machine but paid 80$'ish for the ring crimper and dies (different sizes) after the prices came down from the newness of it all.. Feel free to school me but please be gentle on my fragile plumbing confidence. 60 pounds of endless water always keeps me alert to every little thing (our pressure is at like 140-160.... I just bought a pressure reducer gadget (cheap, new, off of, you got it eb and ripoffpal but then promptly misplaced it but when I find it, snip snip, no more bursted water heaters....) (actually will need to solder that situation correct? Pex on that device doesn't feel appropriate but I'm just guessing and trying to inject what common sense I have into the sitrep. Research and messages from you folks and I'll be right on mission. I actualy got 2 of them and offered the people 24$ a piece just because I try things like that and got 2 brand new. In fact I have to go find them I have so much repair work to do to do on all levels and trades.... I'll be back, add me to your favs so I can ask you for advice.

The original "jack of all trades" quote actually goes even further than he explained. The original quote is from Robert Greene's middle english poem and it goes, "A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one." So it can be interpreted 2 ways: either a jack of all trades has exceeded the mastery of his primary trade so he becomes versed in another to try and fulfill his hunger for knowledge OR (this is the classically agreed on conclusion) he is considered more versatile than his specialized peers by the masses. I like both interpretations personally. Fun thought experiment Jeff!

Don’t do what he did or you’ll be making at least 2 trips because you’ll be reworking it after failing your inspection. If you don’t have an inspection then this way will probably work. The only thing I’d really be concerned about from a practical aspect would be the short 90 he glued into the tee. If you have a vent running flat like that and your drain clogs, debris could easily block off the vent there and you’d have no way to clean it out. That’s sort of what he was talking about with tying the vents in above the sink. He was wrong of course, you can tie your vent in wherever you want. What you can’t do is run a vent flat (in plumbing that means anything between horizontal and 45 deg) below the flood rim of the sink. The reason for this is what I said earlier, you don’t want debris from a stoppage blocking off your vent without a way ti clean it out. It’s extremely difficult to stop up a vertical pipe with debris because of gravity but with a horizontal pipe, gravity works again you. Sorry I get carried away with explanations. If you’re going to do your own plumbing, I’d recommend watch got2learn or Roger Wakefield. Of all the plumbers on KZbin they have the best instructional type videos.

Yep, he should have tied in below the existing San tee, pipe over, sweep up, tee out, then go on to the vent just like he did. He also reduced his vent between the two new tees. He had just made a comment about being short on 1 1/2 so why not use 2” there. If there’s 2” there, I would never reduce a 3’ section of it because depending on how the below floor is done, it might affect the venting

I enjoy these videos and I’ve learned tricks from them but I always correct the plumbing. People always say this is plumbers just butt hurt because this is taking money out of our pockets. Of course this isn’t true or why would we counter with the correct advice. If we wanted to stop DIY we’d just say wrong. I started commenting after seeing a couple of really bad ones. One was a plumber helping his buddy and he ran a lavatory drain over 90d up 1’ and then 90d out. Surely a plumber would know what an s trap is but I guess not. Another guy was doing similar to this, a double vanity. He had two trap arms but put a double combo vertical which again makes two s traps. I didn’t want people to see that do it themselves, then lose time and money redoing it after failing inspection. I guess no good deed goes unpunished. I’ve always liked this guy but if something I heard is true, he’s not as nice as he seems. There’s a professional fence builder who does react videos to other fence building videos. He seems fair. He applauds what’s good and corrects what’s wrong in his view. According to him old Jeff here didn’t like the criticism and copyright struck his video. You know most people could probably do it this way and it would work fine as long as there isn’t an inspection. However what bugs me is the arrogance. I’d respect him a lot more if he admitted his ignorance and told everyone to check their local codes but nope he talks like he knows everything about it even though most of what he said is bs. He even said you can’t attach vents below the flood rim which what’s he’s referring to is running them flat below flood rim and then he immediately ran a flat vent out of the right side of that tee. Then he said short 90s can’t he used on drains which is mostly true but he said that while running a San tee flat which is effectively the same thing. The cherry on top was saying they used to run drains in 1 1/4 galvanized pressure fittings. Not only did they never do this, they never used galvanized period for drains. They ran 1 1/4 galvanized for vents which may still be legal. Even as far back as 100 years ago they had cast iron and the fittings and how they were allowed to go weren’t any different than today. The only difference to today is the material used and methods for connecting it. Sorry for the diatribe, it’s been a long day and he really annoyed me.

I'm about to reno my bathroom. I've only done minor plumbing with sprinkler systems, faucet replacements, etc. What's your reason for using the tape for the p trap connection opposed to the solvent/adhesive you used on the vent/drain?

Well, then, tell us how to do it correctly and what code is. Is code the same internationally? And is there not more than way to do something?

I have a house almost done being built. Utility sink in garage stub outs with 2 inch drain line. I will be moving my washer and dryer to the garage next to the sink. What is the best way to connect the drain home from the washer? supply lines are pex and capped off. Should I do shut off valve first then the T to split for sink and washer?

Is it possible to do this with just existing plumbing? I've seen a video where split all lines including the drain.

Yeah just add a tee on the water stops and add 2 nipples to the end and add the flexies that's the water side done and for the drain you need 2 traps and then you can run the traps to the center and have a tee and run that tee to the existing pipe so yes you can convert it without pulling the wall apart

Those notch outs in the studs only work if it's no load bearing.

He clearly said that before he cut them.

Irrelevant if it’s load bearing. Plumbing code book defines boring vs. notching. Regardless of being load bearing. They have (2) pages dedicated to the proper distances for notching & boring.

Very informative videos by Jeff along with a good Canadian sense of humour! My dilemma: my drain pipe is secured in the concrete pad and the vent is fixed somewhere higher up. How to get pvc fitting in place when both ends are immovable?

Would live to see a video on how to move plumbing coming through the floor to inside a wall, have an exterior wall I'd like to use that is 6 inches deep well insulated so would like to re run the plumbing there so I can get a new vanity since all new vanities seem to only come for plumbing that is in the wall.

I plan to do this too in both my bathrooms. Should I get an inspection for the plumbing job? will one have trouble selling the house later if not? Thanks for the video, it is very helpful.
