@@gregvancom just make sure that people understand that if you roll up 45 or 22 degree that fixture has to have a vent on same plane as fixture or your breaking vent.

You're welcome and keep learning.

I checked it out and it looks like I need to redraw the fitting or I might have grabbed the wrong one. I did make another video with part descriptions that might be more helpful. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/j7lopbWHzaepe6c.html I also appreciate the way you made your suggestions and let me know if you find any problems with my videos.

Welcome!

You're welcome and feel free to point out the other 4 problems:) Some one already mentioned the roll in the wet vent, which is the only problem I found after making the video and will be making a follow up video to correct it. As far as the san tee, it's a combo sweep, but I would appreciate any plumbing codes you have on the 2- 45 connecters instead of a long sweep connector.

Glad you enjoy it!

Yes.

Thanks for the visit

You can't connect drain to vent. See if this helps kzfaq.info/get/bejne/j96Tl8yixs7IeYU.html

how do you connect 2nd floor DWV to 1st floor DWV? Do you have to run a separate stack just for venting?@@gregvancom

Go for it.

I'm not sure what you're doing, but would suggest contacting your local building department for more information or email me a picture.

Not really, but I've made it work before.

@@gregvancom How else can the 1/4" per foot be met?

I made mistake, just connect wye horizontal to use as wet vent. If this is not what you meant, provide more details.

I would check with your local building codes first, but I've seen more than one toilet on 3 or 4 inch horizontal drain lines.

Yes, a 1/4 minimum is a good slope for all pipes. You should check with your local building department to figure out if long runs will be allowed. Most of the time they allow up to 75 or 100 feet before requiring a clean out.

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/j7lopbWHzaepe6c.html I made a video with parts list, just in case someone didn't like my parts. Thanks for helping.

its fine if its vertical

Oh yes and if possible, always run the snake in the same direction as the flow of drainage waste. I remember someone sharing a story with me about a drainage snake that came out of a sink and destroyed part of the bathroom.

@@gregvancom ooof that’s rough lol

The installation of clean outs usually have a few more rules.

Can you explain more of provide building code reference numbers.

I have some at our website. www.homebuildingandrepairs.com/home_building/index.html look for house building projects.

Not yet, I still think we need more votes in the comment area.

@@gregvancom oh wow, great thanks for all your hard work man!

If it's a clean out, then they can be used for testing.

Got it.

You would need to check with local building codes, but most minimum ceiling heights will be around 7 feet.

@@gregvancom Thanks for responding. I did find out, and it's a minimum of 8ft. Just found out by the plumber as I suspected that ceiling will now be about 7'5 inches at best. I warned them, so when the building inspector comes to assess the work completed, I imagine there will be code violations. Oh, and the landlord showed up to take a look. It's on him.

I don't have a video on that but put it on my list of videos to be made.

@@gregvancom could the toilets share same vent?

This isn't an easy question to answer, because is going to depend upon design and layout of the other plumbing pipes. However, I think it's safe to say that as long as you're not going to making it longer than 5 feet, then you might be safe for practically any situation with a 2 inch pipe. Check with your local building department for clarification on using longer pipes.

@@gregvancom So the reason I’m asking is because I want to add a bathroom downstairs and there’s an exiting vent that runs up to the roof. The exiting vent is capped off about 20ft away from where I want to add the bathroom. I was thinking to add a sewer injector pump and connect that to the exiting 3” drain and run 2” ABS to the exiting vent that is 20’ away before it elbows up through my upstairs wall to the roof. I guess I can install a new vent but didn’t really want to make a hole on my torch down roof. Any thoughts on that? Thanks!

Probably not. Email me a picture of what you're trying to do and I will provide an opinion. You can get our email address at our website.

Cap it, extend it up through the roof or try installing an air admittance valve. I would extend it if possible.

For clairification, at the 7:06 mark you state vents cannot be horizontal, you have to angle it up at least 45 degrees, but then shortly after that the vent pipe runs horizontal in the joist bay to the wall before going vertical again. I would like to do this exact thing on a second story bathroom remodel, but not sure if it violates the 6" above flood rim level for horizontal dry vents? Thank you for any help!

First, I would like to thank you for bringing this to my attention. What I should've said is that the vent pipes cannot come off of the drainpipe perfectly flat and will need to have some slope to it. As far as the 6 inches above the rim of a sink goes, this is usually going to be the standard for any situation where you have another plumbing fixture vent connecting into another vent pipe. The vent pipes can be ran horizontal and sloping 1/4 of an inch per foot towards the drainage pipe system.

@@gregvancom Thank you for the reply! I am putting in a bathroom (WC, lav, BT, shower) over my garage. I have 16" deep wooden I-joists so I have plenty of joist space, and I would rather not drop the drains into the garage ceiling space. I am concerned with the local inspector citing IPC 905.4: "Vertical rise of vent. Every dry vent shall rise vertically to a point not less than 6 inches (152 mm) above the flood level rim of the highest trap or trapped fixture being vented." Maybe there are exceptions ("structurally feasible", etc) that I do not know about, but I do not see how the dry vent can be run horizontally in the joist bay and still be compliant with 905.4. I think I can either run a wet vent from the lav or get creative in routing and get vertical dry vents run until above the flood rim. The problem is having a good vertical wall close by, so the drain pipes may have to have longer runs than I would want to accomodate the vents. I am not a licensed plumber so I want to be ready for any questions the inspector may have for me. If you can think of any code work arounds for horizontal dry vents below the flood level, please let me know. Thanks again, and your videos are very helpful!

Counted.

Noted and we're almost there.

Maybe not for all vertical drains, but for horizontal like those in floors.

Good question. I've seen them come out of toilets and open sewers, so maybe any opening in the plumbing drains would provide easy access.

Bummmmmer.

No it's a combo wye, I made another video naming the fittings and I am planning on updating this video.

I will consider it.

Sorry:)
