If you had paid attention you would have seen that I said in the video we did not want to use that method of using the internal slip connection and we in fact went with an external connection the hub adapter. Also we filled it up and tested it and yes you do still need to test for 10 minutes because if there is any leak at the we're connection it doesn't manifest itself right away we've gone to lunch before and come back and found it dripping. We have seen license the plumbers install P traps that look fine and the next day it's dripping at the weir connection.

Great video. I'm a carpenter and I've always been amazed at my how my plumber friends had the ability to cut, fit and assemble complex pipe assemblies and then glue them all together. Last time I did it, like you, I worked to "dry-fit" everything before introducing any glue. Problem is that fittings are tapered and work fine to assemble when glued (and slippery", but calculating all the sizes required is very challenging when dry-fitting. To solve this, I used "KY" personal (water soluable - yup- that stuff :) ) to lube parts so I could bottom-out all parts and get all the lengths just right. I marked the orientation with a paint pen. Disassembled all, washed all the parts and glued and re-assembled the complex mix of pipe and fittings. Worked like a charm.

TIP: for anyone who has/uses plumber’s putty. If want it to stay “good” for very long time, take it out if that plastic container it comes in, w/ plastic lid; AND store it in a glass container with screw on top lid (a lid that has a seal is best). Doing this will make it last at least twice as long than leaving it in the container comes in, if not a year or two. Examples of glass containers I/we use: old pickle jars (washed, rinsed, and 100% dry) or relish, etc… Another good jar is a mason jar with the metal ring and gasket sealed cap that you’d use for canning (this is my preferred, but a pickle type jar so much easier to find, imo).

That's not a good solution. A trap adapter is not the same as a male threaded adapter. While the male threads on the trap adapter are technically same as pipe thread, there are fewer threads to engage plus the wall thickness is less. You can physically make the connection but it's not recommended. Puts too much stress on the male threads. If you want to do this with adapters, use slip joint adapters that fit same as the P-trap tubing. In this case, cut a small length (2-3 inches) off the plain end of a sink tailpiece and insert into trap adapter, then use a slip joint 45 degree fitting, then insert your P-trap outlet into the other side of the 45. Done. All big box stores and hardware stores carry that fitting. 25 year pipefitter here.

Around 2014 I replaced my kitchen sink and faucet. The new sink was deeper than the old one so I went to the hardware store looking for inspiration. Oh yeah, there was a dishwasher connected to it also. When I saw one of those flex fittings I said "ah ha", then my inner voice said wait a minute, pull up on that thing. You see that? That's likely to trap all manner of vile stuff in it. I'm glad my inner voice is smarter than I am. I went back home, recut the pipes and jammed everything up as tight as it would go and wound up maybe 1/32" - 1/16" off so I was able to make that work. I've thought about putting the dishwasher fitting in the cross over pipe from the other sink but I had both knees replaced at the end of 2020 so I haven't even looked at it to see if it's even possible to do that.

I’m not a plumber but I am a professional home owner. Recently I replaced all my kitchen countertops, sink and faucet. I went from a double bowl sink to a single bowl with the drain being located now in the center versus off to the side. From the original PVC Marvel connector went a female to slip fitting, a wide sweep drain wye with a female slip threaded fitting for a clean out plug facing the cabinet front and then a a new Marvel connector slip fitting into the leg of the eye. This allowed my drain pipe P-trap to still exit rearward verse an angle which would create undue hindrance of storage space in sink cabinet. I used Oatey Fusion One Step PVC cement to keep the purple off my new work because I’m so vain. In doing so I now had an open bay on one half and room to install two new dovetailed drawers with bottom mount soft close slides in the other bay of the double door front 36” sink cabinet to step up my under counter game even more. My wife’s mind was blown when she saw her newly upgraded kitchen as the drawers were a welcome surprise for organizing and access.

I have a t-shirt similar to yours. I wear it when someone comes over to borrow a tool or something else. It says, "If Tony Doesn't Have One, It Doesn't Exist." A couple of things I do: When I use an extension, I always allow for the distance that my extension will fit inside the fitting(s). This prevents me from cutting the extension too short. Before I test fit the PVC, I remove any burrs. After I have my pieces test fitted, I mark both to indicate how they need to line up. I also use slow-drying glue to adjust the pipes before the glue sets up.

Personally, I would NEVER use a 1 1/4" p-trap under any sink. I would have run 1 1/2" pipe, fittings p-trap and trap adapter from the wall to the drain tailpiece ( grayish pipe ). I would then use a 1 1/4" x 1 1/2" slip joint washer and nut to connect the tailpiece to the new drain line. No need for a tailpiece extension ( another potential leak point ). I have also found drains that did NOT leak when checked by just allowing the faucet to run for a while. It is better to fill the sink with water, then allow it to drain all at once.

You probably have a clog somewhere between your kitchen sink and the street outside your house where it dumps into the sewer system. This is making the water back up, and it has to go somewhere, so it goes back up to the basement drain. Most often this can be snaked out. But if that fails, I've seen where tree roots have burst through pipes and are clogging the pipe now. Usually the plumbers need to snake a camera down the drain pipe to confirm it. This happened at our friend's house lasted year. hopefully yours is just a simple clog that can be snaked easily with their machine. Make sure you don't ever pour chicken fat down your sink drain, I try to avoid putting any solid foods, or anything oily or buttery that can congeal at room temperature or colder.

@@jeffostroff In California, Idaho, NH, Connecticut, and many other states, 1 1/4 inch traps are rare in modern homes. If the home is built in the 60s or before, 1 1/4 inch traps were more common but easily updated to 1 1/2. The code (IPC) does not specify 1 1/4 inch. There is no reason to install 1 1/4 drains and traps when 1 1/2 is the same price and more readily available. Pop-ups have 1 1/4 inch tailpieces but a reducing slip washer at the pop-up tail piece works fine. My wholesale suppliers have a very limited stock of 1 1/4 inch DWV.
