Smacked it out of the park Josh. HOME RUN! One of the many strengths to your vids ... is also the voice over that shares how you think through the project. That's a nice touch and the volume is good too. great work man

Glad I came across this video - starting this project and was going to begin with the outlet box itself. Immediately subscribed/followed and watched all "shorts" - lots of valuable information on your channel, THANK YOU!

Awesome video. Very detailed and no fluff

Good morning from Az. Thank you for sharing your videos. It's awesome to watch you put things together👍👍😎

Thanks for sharing a very informativo video!

Nice job.

Nice work. Everythi g is WELL explained. Thanks for the vid's.

All of your DWV videos are good EXCEPT for the fact that you never mention or talk about the under the floor component of the project. Be nice to see a video of the crawl space drain system that you must already have in place.

I was replacing our old broken outlet box with a Sharkbite box. The quality of the plastic is much lower and the box dimensions are significantly smaller, so it doesn’t fully cover the previous hole. I’m probably going to have to ge back and buy a better box.

GREAT VIDEO!

Saludos bendiciones Josh gracias x la información exelente video 🇬🇹🙏

By code the vertical pipe from the trap to the outlet box must be 18-24 inches.

Great inf

in my area these box need water hammer arrestor with the valve since 2018

Why do you need a trap if it is glued? Can’t clean it out? Thanks for taking the time to do these videos! I have learned a ton!

Gracias por compartir amigo. Saludos desde Tijuana, BC, Mexixo

Thanks for the video, only question I had for you, is can you run the drain line into an existing sink drain line, can they both share the same drain/wast line?

Thank you!

Thorough!

Great info!!!!

What’s the slope angle for 3” main drainage line? 1/4” every 1 ft? Is this a rule of thumb for all sized pipes?

I’m getting ready to install one of these as a retrofit on an older set up and I am stuck on the proper mounting height I’ve heard anywhere from 32 to 43 inches. Anyone know the reasoning to height. I get the part about not creating a siphon. Also the part about not wanting to see it behind the washer. Help???

Hi Josh, my builder left the washer drain opening sealed , what should I do to open it up ?

How can I add a box drain for a water filter system in the power bathroom ???

Why do you have the bottom of the pipe curving upward? Isn’t that going to make it harder for the water to drain properly?

So, I have a stupid question. I have this exact same sharkbite outlet box. How in the heck do you get the drain knockout out?!? There's a little hole in the middle that was no problem to pop out; however, to get the whole knockout out seems impossible! It's one continuous piece of plastic! They advise to glue everything together *before* removing the knockout, but now that I've done that, I think it's made it even more impossible to remove the thing!! How do you get the thing off? I literally think it's one piece, so do I need a special tool?

I have 2"x4" stubs. If I drill a hole in them for the 2" PVC pipe, I lose the structural integrity. Should I just run the p trap/drain outside the wall?

Lifesaver! Thanks Josh!

The hot water washer hose will not come off. Tried to loosen and tighten the hose to hopefully get some movement but it wouldn’t budge. In doing so, the whole valve assembly moved about an inch to the left and right a few times. It occurred to me that I was bending the copper tube below and behind the drywall. Should I be worried? Fill time for the washing machine didn’t change. Should I be worried? Is the copper pipe much stronger than I give it credit for?

Saludos Josh

Thanks for the video. Have you done any better methods besides the hammer for the 2 inch drain cap?

what about water hammer?

Which way is hot and cold?

Do you ever use the pex guage to confirm your crimps are good?

Hello. Nice video. Thank you. Would you have a rough idea of about what it would cost me to pay someone to do this for me? How much would a plumber charge to install the box and hook up to existing drain and water connections? I know there's a lot of things to consider, but just a round about figure. Thanks

👍👌

What size hole saw do you use for 2” pvc?

Is 43” height code?

Who in their right mind would install this to begin with? The repair is OBNOXIOUS!

I just bought a home with a new washer box installed already. Can I use a 🔨 and 🪛 to pop it out while it's installed already? I'm afraid it will fall into the drain. I saw a video and the guy said to cut it out with a razor. I tried and broke my blade. What's best way to remove it while installed? Thank you.
