    The mass hysteria cracks me up. I honestly don't know much of the plumbing codes - that is why I hire a licensed plumber in good standing with the county building department. We have been rounds with the inspectors in the past over small details and everything we do is based on the inspectors interpretation of the code. The inspectors spot check the lines with a level for slope and are generally very happy with this plumbing contractor. Over the years, I've been a part of almost 100 homes that his plumber has helped construct and have had the opportunity to talk with many of the homeowners who have never had any problems. Every State, County, and City is different. We all know that in the end you do what passes inspections, meets budget, and produces a quality product - but that does not look the same on every build.
    I appreciate all the conversation this has stirred up and hope that overall it is making us all better at what we do. That is the whole point of community collaboration and discussion

      Daniel Heap , I want to have a bathroom put into my basement, the house is 10 years old, I'm learning listening to people talk that it is not a simple job. I didn't even know there were pumps involved, I guess I will keep taking breaks and going upstairs and using one of the two bathrooms I already have, plus it sounds pretty pricey, great video.

    I've been in the plumbing/pipefitting business for 43 years. I see 3 corrections there. The 2" should be 3" with a full size clean out. The trap arm for the lavy can only be 3'-6" on 1-1/2" otherwise it has to be 2" at 5'-0". Also the floor drain needs a separate vent. In a basement system you'll need a backwater valve to provent flooding.

    Thanks. This helps me as I'm adding a bathroom by using an existing room that's on a concrete slab. I know code is a little different everywhere you go. So the basics are what I'm looking for. My local code is 1/8" grade, but 1/4 sounds like a good idea, if I can make it work.

    A couple of comments. Slope on a drain line is very important. 1/4" per foot is ideal when flushing solids. Too little slope and you have sludge building up in your lines. Too much slope and you reduce the drainage capacity of the pipe. This is where your code comes in. If your overall slope exceeds the inside diameter of your pipe, you create a syphon that will suck all the water out of a nearby trap, or make your toilets/sinks gurgle. If you have a 4" ID at 1/4" slope, the max distance you can go without a vent to allow air in is 16'. An 1 1/4" ID is good for 5', a 2" ID is good for 8' etc. I don't have a fancy level like yours, I just tape a 1/2" block of plywood under my 2' level. From the looks of your basement from your main stack to your sump pit, I would say you might be pushing it a bit without an extra vent in that long run.

    • @arnelarsen4073
      @arnelarsen4073 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Agree not enough air in your system. Also if you consider from your toilet to sump that is your main drain, any Y connected there needs to have the branch higher then main. So 2” needs to be rotated up so it’s drops into main…Y’s are too flat. You wet vent the shower but toilet has no air.

    • @jasonn5530
      @jasonn5530 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I agree on the slope and vent issues… experience speaks louder than comments on an upload but for sure too much and it sounds like someone is gurgling water… too little and better have the clean out accessible and a snake handy! I tie a vent pipe in all trap areas even if they only vent out of a single stack accept the toilet. Works every time and always aim for 1/4 or just a little more for insurance and haven’t had a problem in 20 yrs

  • @say_goodnight7342

    In Kentucky this would be completely wrong, as Kentucky follows it's own plumbing code rather than international code, and is generally considered the strictest state in terms of plumbing code. Here, you have to have an independent vent for each fixture, and no wet vents or flat venting under fixture level rim is allowed at all. Also each fixture had a set trap branch length and fixture unit. (so a shower is considered 1 1/2 fixture unit with a trap size of 1 1/2 minimal, and can only be 3 foot 6 inches of linear pipe between the trap and the vent because a fixture has to hit a vent before it hits a drain.).Also the means of putting pipe underground or under a slab is much stricter (so All the plumbing underground has to be fortified with gravel, so you have to pour gravel all the way around the pipe to stop settling.That doesn't include if you run a pipe under a drive way, in which, it must be concreted around the pipe or it must be cast iron) It's much stricter for plumbers in Kentucky. We have to use much more pipe and fitting than other states, and therefore much more work.

      Kinton K as a 45 year old remodeler, the finished height of the flange depends on the height of the finished floor, there is variances in thickness of tile thin set, etc. I also like to anchor my flanges in the concrete and tile after the tile is set.

    Every state is different, but in my area of Texas this would be against code. Water
    closet too far from vent and water closet would need 4x3 90 with 4 inch
    stubbed up. Flanged should be installed after concrete pour. But Ive worked in other states where this would be pass no problems and would work no problems. Plumbers who post on youtube videos need to keep in mind that whats going on in a video might be 100 percent up to code in their area.

    • @joshcowart2446
      @joshcowart2446 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      That’s what I was going to say. I would think you’d have to vent the toilet directly out of the toilet line and wet vent it with the lav. Then maybe stack the shower or put it separately in a wall. There’s also no trap primer on the floor drain

  • @jefflucas7216
    @jefflucas7216 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    here in louisiana you can vent a toilet with 2", but when you introduce a shower, lavatory, or floor drain you have to run a 3" vent. the floor drain definitely needs a vent added, as well as a mechanical trap primer. your allowed to make a change of direction with a 45 but your second 45 should have been a wye with a cleanout out the back. we follow a different code than the yankee states. hopefully your plumbing works. its been two years...any problems?

  • @mikerose7375
    @mikerose7375 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    That is a horizontal wet vent system. See it all the time in Oregon. For this system, everything looks ok except for the lav trap arm...sounds too far away. What about a primer valve for the floor drain? Not sure if the floor drain needs a vent and not sure if an ejector pump system needs a back water valve.

    Good video but I would add that your measurements are "to center", for instance your closet, the 12in should be "to center" not just "12 inches from the finished wall" because some people might take that as the edge closest to the wall should be 12 inches and then you would be off when do your top out. I'm learning to be a plumber also so I don't know everything but I do know that.

    That is a horizontal wet vent system. It's funky as shit and I don't really like it but I've done it on multistory buildings. It. Ugh me every time I see it but we're all just used to conventional plumbing. Technically it's right though. As for traditional plumbing, technically the shower is fine. If your trap arm is twice the size as required then you don't need a vent (which technically I think it needs a 4" arm and trap)🤔. 2% required on all pipe less than 4" though and it's not permitted to test plastic pipe with air.

    See!!? This is exactly what I spoke of. Most of the items mentioned here dance around the UPC. But each municipal contingent has their own idiosyncrasies they feel need updating at further attention. Remember, the code is nothing more than industry MINIMUMS... Some jurisdictions address things further. They are the people you need to make happy. Not these blow hard plumbers prowling TH-cam dispensing their worthless knowledge.

    Old video but this is correct plumbing in Michigan. Master plumber myself and I understand codes vary geographically and I've done this 100's of times I'm sure it works 100% I've plumbed in Kentucky and this wouldn't pass inspection. The codes their are insanely overkill!

      Same in Texas. That would get a redtag (code rejection) here. Water closet too far from vent and water closet would need 4x3 90 with 4 inch stubbed up. Flanged should be installed after concrete pour.

    They way the plumbers roughed it out is very wrong and illegal here in Texas. Vent should be 3" and has to be above the plumbing fixtures thats considered a low vent

    this is typical in NC, minus the floor cleanouts. I would think of at least 2 being required in that long run.

  • @hyster2568
    @hyster2568 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    In Texas you have to roll that vent on a 45 and a sweep for the toilet!! Also, every fixture has to have its own vent!!

  • @harrisonsplumbing8555
    @harrisonsplumbing8555 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    vent cannot be ran flat or dry, the venting is illegal, and the floor drain must have a vent within 16 feet on 3" which i don't see that either, 3" pipe 1/8" per foot grade is required, anything below 3" is 1/4" per foot anything above 6" is 1/16" per foot

    • @harrisonsplumbing8555
      @harrisonsplumbing8555 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      if that were a wet vent tying into a lavatory it would be legal, but you just said vent, but im assuming thats for a vanity

  • @drewfaulkner3242
    @drewfaulkner3242 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    1. THIS WAY IS ILLEGAL IN NEW MEXICO. 2. THE PIPE WAS NOT LABELLED AS PRESSURE PIPE. MOST PIPE I RUN IS NOT FOR PRESSURE SO YOU CAN NO PUT IT ON AIR TEST. HAS TO BE WATER TESTED.

  • @TheNimshew
    @TheNimshew 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    They allow a vent horizontal below the slab/flood level? And 2" at that. What code is this? Big mistake putting the flanges on now. That's 1/4" per foot. No more, no less. Oh boy! You're in for a treat with an injector pump inside the building! Where's the protection(foam wrap) around all pipes going through concrete? PVC doesn't expand and contract? What's with the vanity drain. Where I come from.. maximum 42" from centerline of vent to weir of trap on 1 1/2" drain. This system is dumping 3 f.u.'s into a 2" vent for a toilet? Ah...no. While I'm at it,. What kind of 1/4 bend is that for the toilet? Not a vent ell is it? Sooo many questions!
