Congratulations for your 100 videos you made ! Talk with completely plumbing language using all those terminologies, made us a better plumber , and you are the perfect pattern to fallow in the plumbing industry. Thank you for all your instructional videos especially the IPC whoever watch all those chapters , they will pass the examination as I did. Thank you for that.

Boss how r u. I am kashif. I am following your utube channel and i like i am working plumbing work 12 year. Now my program is to go outside the country please recommend me any international standard plumbing book so that I can prepare for the interview. Which contains the concept of all measurements of the washroom pvc or pprc pipeing hights ect.

Very Nice Thanks

I appreciate this message! For the record, people who are searching for God should seek the help of those who SERVE God. Any denomination of Christian’s can have people who serve the Lord

Why does UPC require water closet to be most downstream connection to a horizontal wet vent (and shown such in the video examples) but IPC does not indicate this requirement?

Tom, I’m studying for the exam in Georgia, I’m loving the videos and listen 2 a day to your code book videos. But we NEED a gas code commentary as well!! An IFGC would be amazing!!

Thanks Tom. Cleared up alot for me

Any reason why flared copper tubing is not commonly used for plumbing in the US except for gas flex lines? It's a lot more common in Europe. No soldering in involved. My background is mechanical engineering and we use mandrel steel tubing with JIC 45 degrees flared end connections all the time... 3000 psi is no probs at all. 50-100 psi in household plumbing would be cake walk.

Excellent instruction

Tks good job 🙏

Great, thanks

Excellent thanks

Excellent thanks, enjoying..great

See i sit here and self sabotage myself yet idk y

Just took my state exam today I have been watching your videos for a month to help me study and I passed! Thank you so much for your videos!!

The best explanation for this is that,. Thank you so much

Background music is so loud.

Tom you are totally right, but do not forget to pick your tools ones you done any project, so you don’t need to buy very often, lol , this is the story of my life , BTW Tom , I want to thank you , cause I got success with DC Master plumber examination,

I'm impressed by his one-handed teflon tape wrapping skills.

His left hand is the number one reason you should own gloves!

Im trying this now, having problems getting the flange off where its connected to sewr pipe, trying to make cuts and knock it off with chisel, but scared to damage main pipe, nice video, im scared

For a tee with same size ends but different size branch, like 2" x 2" x 1" wouldn't you just say 2" x 1" tee?

How do you come out with 5.83 from 34?

im trying to follow along but im getting confused on direction. the the 2nd drawing, is that west-east?

You forgot a couple of very important steps - 2.1 deduct 0.5 psi for each foot of difference in elevation, and Step 3 - multiply total developed length by 1.5 for pressure loss through fittings. Very important for the test.

Thank you for sharing information on this channel I am interested in taking my Connecticut P2 license test I have worked in New York City x local 2 trade worker really need help pacing P2 test in Connecticut thank you.

Ty really good stuff just got a plumbing helpers job I'm trying to get ahead of things as to impress big moe ! 😂😅

I’ve been to plumbing school. I never took my test and moved out of state. Just started Studying for the tests and this is an amazing recap for me. This is almost what I paid 6k for. Just no exams each week. Tom you seriously know your stuff and do a great job explaining it. I wish I had you for a teacher back in the day. I thank you for making such high quality content. I’ve been plumbing for 9 years. Anyone wondering what videos to watch about learning code… this is it. Seriously. He’s going through the history of plumbing and everything just like school. Bravo Tom.

How would you still do this rolling offset if you used 2- 90 degree elbows on 45 degree angles?

Hey Tom I just started my third week of a plumbing apprenticeship with a great guy that does mostly new construction/ remodel with a little bit of service work. I am 33 and live in Denver Colorado. No previous construction or applicable experience besides some woodworking for two years when I was 21. The videos you are providing here and fantastic. Thank you so much for the resource. I just picked up the 2024 IPC book/ binder. I am using your videos to study as well. I am not doing anything that requires much skill/ knowledge or responsibility yet but I am loving it anyway! Set my first two toilets the other day. Plumbing is just a dam cool profession! Thanks 🙏

Would this work for wyes to ??? Like if your doing a riser so everything is vertical if that makes sense

GREAT JOB! I will be sure to share.

You don’t have chapters on 11-Apendeix E?

Sooo I’ve had some plumbers tell me I have to add air and I’ve had some tell me you don’t! What’s the real answer

That recirc line works alot better, connected to the bottom of the tank. Fwiw

PROBLEM. Tom thanks for the best video ever. Tom, my problem is the 1/2” copper stub coming out from the wall feels loose. It will turn and I can’t tell if it’s screwed in or pushed in with some type of compression fitting and I can’t see what it looks like because😢 it’s behind the wall, any suggestions?

Taking my journeyman’s on Thursday! And these videos are kick ass because this ipc book can be worded sooo weird

Good video. Thanks for sharing. Question. Most expansion tanks that I have seen that are installed correctly ( my original was not installed correctly…) are dead headed (only has a cold water pipe going to it) and not mounted on a T fitting like you show… I was looking online after watching your video and found mounting instructions that show it mounted on a T fitting like your diagram. There are of course nothing showing a pressure gauge or shut off valve or any real instructions. Is it ok to dead head the water line into the expansion tank or is it best practice to Tee it off the water line? Thanks for your time! 😊

Awesome video!

I have an inlet pressure reducing valve pre set at 12psi. Yet my boiler runs 20 psi cold and almost 25 psi hot. The expansion tank also precharged at 12 psi. My home is only one story (with basement where the boiler is) and the highest piping point is about 8 feet from the boiler. The boiler was installed with the expansion upside down, meaning valve stem points towards ceiling. The circulator was installed right before the return into the boiler. When the maintenance guys come they always say that's ok. I don't believe it. Would adding or reducing pressure from the expansion tank help the problem because there doesn't seem to be any other way to lower the pressure?

Vent stack for bathroom vanity goes through top plate non load bearing wall need stud shoe.

Which IPC book is this

quick question: in my appartment the washer box has the drainage pipe coming through the box and is above the bottom of the box by 3-4 inches. also the drain pipe has no sealant around it as it is coming through the hole, so we had a mishap that a washer gasket was faulty and water leaked in the washer box and into the space between the drain pipe and and hole around it. Is this type of installation normal?

Do you have any videos about toilet tank screws and nuts rusted in place and how to remove?

Hey!! nice video really helpfull.. could you answer a few question i have... do we consider the pressure loss due to fitting, elevation, meter and backflow preventer? in code its mention to multiply dev. length by 1.2 for fitting. is it right? and do you get an accurate answer for service pipe being lesser than building pipe. Thanks

Thanks

Thats a dam good job!

Hi Tom. Very useful. I interest to see Chapter 11 Storm Drainage. Thanks

Hi Tom I do have a question maybe you can help how high should a laundry box be rough in ?

Hey Tom or comments section... With water savers being almost everywhere in the house, say on a 2 1/2 bathroom house, if you bring 1" into the house then 3/4" to water heater, and branch off with 1/2... would using extra 90s instead swoop/looping the PEX make a big difference when it's near the fixtures? There's some places that make it very difficult to swoop... I'm wondering -- since everything is ~ 2.2 gallons per minute approximately, if it's not near a hose bibb, washing machine, or water heater, will using extra 90s before the fixture actually affect the flow with a properly set PRV. I wasn't really sure how to even calculate this particular situation or if it even needed to be addressed with such low flow in showerheads and aerators. I couldn't really find it addressed anywhere in the book
