    What did you use to hang the pipe? How did you attach it to the mobile home. Here in Michigan, I need to have a support every 4 ft. My underside looks like yours with the insulation. No boards to nail hangers to.

      @@888huckleberry you are correct, we recently installed brand new skirting on our mobile home as we are ready for our final inspection, we thought maybe that was the wire for the heat tape on the outside pipes but turns out it lead to nothing, it was the wire for the taillights from when they transported the mobile home.

    Hey Scott, it’s very frustrating to have to go back and fix what someone else was payed to do the first time around, I get those jobs a lot, it’s either fixing what they screwed up or finishing what they started, but that’s the world we live in now, I’m glad I was taught better than that, I grew up around old timers that were picky and want just so or it was wrong in their eyes and you did it again, nice job on the drain, enjoyed the video as always looking forward to the next one

    Scotty unfortunately you may have to redo your tie down straps when you relevel your trailer. Hopefully you will be able to still use it or won't have to unstrap it. Definitely should of poured cement pad or peers before blocking the unit PERMANENTLY there. That's ALWAYS code where I live . I just hope you don't keep having issues. If that was a double wide, that would of been a major mess.

    I totally feel ya on this job, I just got done a few weeks ago replacing half of the sewer lines under my double wide, got tired of the clogs from the kitchen due to poor pitch and under sized piping as well as lack of cleanouts. Just curious of a few things. What were you fastening the straps to, the steel frame or the wood floor joists?
    Also, I've never seen anyone connect the A/C condensate to a sewer line, is that legal in your area? If so definetly make sure you have a decent trap on it, otherwise you'll be pumping sewer gas through your vents.
    Just a tip, that kitchen line has way too much pitch, on horizontal lines that causes liquids to zip by leaving solids behind. it would have been better to extend the vertical stub down and put a long 90 or a combo wye with a cleanout on into the horizontal run to get a smoother pitch.

    It's looking good Sir!! If you move the blocking out to the side frame will you still get the skirt on? It's been 11 yrs since I've crawled around under a mobile mansion. Back in my plumbing days I spent many days under them as no other plumbing company in town wanted to crawl around under them. I got $91for the first hour and $61per hour after that to work under mobile homes and even more during the winter to do repairs when water and sewer lines froze and or broke. I miss that job. God Bless!!

      Depending on your ground service underneath it is everything I never seen a service as nice as Scotty had it all flat, up high enough to sit up plastic down, nice weather,plenty of light . That was dream scenario I NEVER had such nice conditions .. He made it look easy . You got to get that pitch correct, make sure you have clean outs on all your horizontals and strapping every 4ft is code where I'm at >> not sure how he got away with that and if that's the case it could present a problem under a trailer . But good luck if you didn't already do it. Oh most important Scotty didn't instruct either about heat wire. Depending on your area heat wire may need insulation and heat wire to keep from freezing .. also bees and wasps love nesting under trailers hopefully you don't have any of them as well.
