Yep, some related DIY wisdom learned the hard way: start your plumbing work early and when you have plenty of time to deal with the inevitable unexpected issues. Never work on a holiday or close to closing time for the store. If you can’t shut off plumbing locally to the fixture/room you’re working, make sure everybody has a plan for alternative plumbing and don’t interrupt the laundry.dishes/etc. Basically, plan for the worst and be happy when things go better. There’s nothing worse than the feeling that everybody is waiting on you and you don’t have the solution in time…it only makes the job that much harder.

Studpack. I literally threw in the towel tonight as I too am installing an IKEA kitchen. I put that bottom drawer in and the metal back support hits my drain stub out by an eighth of an inch. Seeing you come up with a solution was the confidence I needed to cut that thing tomorrow. Thanks Guys
When I renovated a room in our home, I took the opportunity to route the AC coil condensate line through the ceiling and out the roof soffit, and down into rain barrels. I'm a few hundred miles north of the Stud Pack, but still with my local humidity, I get about 10 gallons of grey water every summer day in my rain barrels from my 3 ton AC, which we use to water the flower gardens. It keeps The Mrs super happy -- just FYI. Also, the first time I saw one of those waterfall style faucets I had to have one, so we bought and installed it in the master bathroom. After a couple years it started growing all sorts of weird stuff in the exposed portion of the end of the faucet opening. I couldn't get rid of it fast enough. It was neat at first though.
@@swdavis2306 Oh? I've heard that one other time, but then other people jumped in to 'correct' the person warning me.

I love that Rigid pipe cutter! Paul you find some of the most useful tools!! I’m in the Kitchen remodel trade and that is my next purchase for my plumbers bag:)
A trick I’ve learned over the years for checking leaks on plumbing is place a blue shop paper towel under the connections. I’ve had leaks that were slow to where I didn’t catch them after install initially. The blue paper towel changes to a dark blue when wet. I just lay it under the system and check back after 10 or so minutes to see if there is a slow leak. Can then use towel to wipe the connections and find the leaking one.
@@itigg yup! I always say to leave nothing under the sink for 2 days and use it heavy. And if you wipe a paper towel under the sink multiple times each day it should be bone dry if it's not, then let me know asap. I also recommend using under sink silicon mats. Amazon sells them. They have a lip and hold somewhere around 30 gallons of liquid or something based on the size. But working in houses even 5 years old, kills me to get under there and find the bottom of the cab destroyed. Cleaner bottles, drains, water lines, etc leak. The under sink silicon mats contain the spill or leak and no cabinets destroyed!!! Put a water sensor in it and as soon as it leaks, get an alert. I built my house 5 years ago and have 9 sink cabinets and got ones for each!! Life savor!!! My kitchen sink, I've had multiple cleaners leak and at one point the faucet that the middle pulls out and the back and forth caused a connection to come loose after 2 years. The mat and sensor saved me a weekend of work replacing a cabinet bottom. :D.
@@MikeHarris1984 yes those mats are great. Only downside is can’t use easily with under sink drawer systems typically because they bottom mount. Suppose I could screw right through it with some silicone around the holes to stop leaks.
Installing the cool sink dishwasher gives me a new appreciation for picking appliances before rough in plumbing and electrical, but even doing that I would expect other install problems will arise. Always enjoy watching you solve these problems.

I believe the dish washer uses cold water as opposed to hot is because, at least here in Europe, most houses don't filter hot water as much as they filter cold water because cold is usually made very safe to drink straight from the tap. Therefore hot water has more 'contaminants'. Where I live we have a lot of clay and dolomite and filtrating all that can get expensive when you're filtering for both hot and cold so we just do cold. All in all, the reason I think this dish washer uses cold is to have the best water possible so the dishes are cleaner and your pipes don't get clogged.
Im planing to get one of those in my condo when I re-do my kitchen, seen all the videos about this, this is hands down the best one and saved for future reference..
I feel like i joined you when you had like 15k subscribers.. a little before the "Sunken Chapel" Its been cool watching you guys grow and i love watching you teach and build.
Manufacturer most likely recommends the cold water connection due to the fruit and seafood washing feature of the fancy model and they just kept their instructions consistent for both models. You’re a legend for making it to page 12 Paul
@@keithfreitas2983most people in China are hanging clothes, but I think the younger homeowners are putting in dryers. Btw they have been using the combo units in Europe for a long time and have them in the us also , but they have their own set of issues, mainly they’re complex and slow. We did an 18” dishwasher in my brother’s place in New Orleans because it’s a small kitchen which I’d prefer over the counter model only for the ability for replacement when the time comes.
I had to do the same thing to our drawer under our kitchen sink a couple years ago. Seeing Paul do it makes me feel validated. You guys do a SUPER job.
I’m so glad to see you guys working on this project I intend to install this same sink/dishwasher and seeing you guys do this was amazingly helpful, and thank you for the advice on locating the rough ins after talk dealt with this
I love the combination dishwasher and sink, that is so effective. Definitely will consider that in any future place we get/build. One of the best videos on how to install all the connections/etc. before hand.
clever idea .. but what service person out there knows how to repair it? and where/how to get parts? and if it can't be repaired you have quite unusual space in counter to deal with. I'm a keep it simple guy - standard appliances easy to repair and if necessary, replace.
I'm from the Old Safety Engineer School...Wear both belt "and" suspenders, so anyone thinking adding extra pipe dope (the proper term evades me right now, but I'm sure someone will correct me) or plumbers putty "just to make sure," along with all the other "extras" a lot may think is unnecessary just for peace of mind. Worth its weight in gold for me. Peace of mind is a very good thing. And when Jordan said wait and unscrewed the support making moving the completed sink easier? As one of my bosses told me over half a century ago...Dammit...Don't work harder, work smarter. And...Y'All did just that. Great job and very informative video. While most of my comments were about the sink, I learned a lot from the vanity and bathroom sink install as well. I definitely appreciate all the tips and insight into how and why you arrive at the decisions you make. Bonus!! Helps me access things before just jumping in and screwing up. As another boss told me, there is nothing so pressing you can't stop and say "just wait a minute" and reassess the situation before charging in (as some would say, like a bull in a china closet) full speed ahead. Please keep the great videos coming!!
I think in stud pack 2 we see her and know whom she is in her interior designs and her love for the art of it, would love to see more of what she has done,
Remember water leak alarm for bathroom and kitchen. Nice if it can also shut off the whole house water supply. I have a few China Tuya wireless ones and a add on shut off motor for my main valve. Has saved my basement once when a pipe burst at night
Paul you are super! I was just telling my husband your like the dad that many of us didn't have - the handy guy who teaches us tips & tricks for this pesky home improvement or home maintenance projects! Thank you!
I want to thank you guys for bringing to light some interesting products that have helped me with a project I’m working on and for showing some of the issues that can come up so I don’t have to go through the learning process myself lol.
Looks fantastic guys! It’s getting there. Exciting when finishing pieces go in. Soon enough the Studpack LED Garondo will be complete! It’s been a long journey and a definite fun, learning experience.
Great video again!!! One note, be very careful to remove any flammable stuff from your shop vac before sucking up steel cuts. Found his out he hard way. Also, you can cook fish in a dishwasher. It's pretty good and cleanup is a breeze. thanks again!!!
I really like the way you did the cutout for the trap. I bought my house in 1998 and installed Delta faucets and I used clear silicone rather than plumber's putty when I install the drains. The aerators in the faucets corroded and I couldn't get them out without destroying the faucet so I bought two new Delta faucets in 2023 and installed them. Fantastic faucets and when I removed the drains from the sinks that silicone was perfectly sealed and lasted 25 years and was still good. Plumber's putty dries out and cracks and I know that from sinks I had to fix in rental properties.
Paul, great job narrating & explaining your tecknics about how you do things. Like the sink dishwasher combo. Waiting to see the finished apartment. Like the bathroom mirror Jordan.
Paul I’ve been plumbing for 30 years and I was proud of you to say you put pipe dope on the bottom rubber I also recommend putting it on toilet tank bolt washers because of the roughness of the porcelain
Looks good guys, when connecting the hose for the condensate under the lav sink, it's always a good idea to have grade on the tubing. Just roll the grey barbed fitting down and you have grade. Love the channel and everyone involved.
I bought Lexel after seeing you use it. Had to drive to a Lowe’s to get it. Used it on a roof to sidewall joint area that decided to leak in a rainstorm. Great stuff. Sticks to anything, dried pretty fast and you hardly see it. Pricey stuff but worth it ! 👍
They actually make a product called through the roof that is made for the roof(go figure) . its basically lexel with uv inhibitors I believe. its great stuff.
After foundation settlement (which required adding piers to re-level the slab) I had groundwater seeping upward thru the slab around the PVC toilet drain. I added a nice thick layer of Lexel around the PVC and sealed it off to the concrete slab. It has sealed it up perfectly. Now I believe I have the same upward seepage in a wall of the shower where the water lines come up thru the slab. Didn’t realize that groundwater may have been the source of the water when we had to rebuild the rotted shower studs and entire shower. Termites loved it! Now I need to open the wall to check and will likely have to Lexel around the incoming water lines.
So much effort and so many parts to install drainpipe and trap. They now sell a kit with a flexible hose you cut to length and kink to form the trap then screw into your drainpipes on either end. Easy peasy, one simple hose, no more messing around with angles and rings and fittings and cutting pipes. I used it on my last bathroom remodel and will never go back to the old way.
Cold water to the dishwasher, in Europe thats normal. I never heard of warm water to the dishwasher until i started to look at American Diy channels. Same as clear one component glue for drainage-pipe, we use only that. Anaway, i give it 10 more years and then you will al be using metric 😁 The build is going great, and the template for the router on the saw-table, why didn"t i think of that!!! That would have saved me half a day. Great tip from a pro, thank you again and keep up the good work!!
I wonder if they use hot water in the US because they are on 120V, so it takes a long time to heat water. It doesn't take us long to heat up water so we can use cold water
@@thelibraryismyhappyplace1618 Realy good poimt, sounds valid, i have no idea. The amps are more, i think, important to heat op water, but then again it could be the voltage.
Just incredible attention to detail. Paul is at a whole new level of experience these days. The painters tape, the cardboard, the pre-planning and building, the vacuum cleaner at the ready - all the tricks that come from years if experience.
another advantage of Delta is that any plumber can get you a replacement cartridge when it goes bad. Brand WTH knows, no chance, they are replacing the whole faucet.
That’s what I like about moen. All their cartridges are same for the type. I have my next 3 replacements already because the same cartridge is good for the vanity, the kitchen, and the shower. Easy swap.
Agreed! Just went through the replacement cartridge search for an out of production off brand. Finally found an open package one eBay. Luckily it fit and worked.
Doing a mock install first was a great idea for the viewers and for you. Beats doing it all on your knees. An extra step, but it seemed like it was worth it.
Whether I do the plumbing myself or if I have my plumber come do the job. I always lay a couple paper towels under all drains and stops for a few days, while completing the job. The towel test has saved me come backs I don’t know how many times!!
That first "P" trap on the dishwasher is not a P trap. It's a sweep to drain better. And it doesn cause an S trap where it can suction them both out is because you have that vent line that goes to the vacuum break and to the garbage disposal where most dishwasher connect to. So it's a neat design.
Great plumbing video. Thanks for showing the struggles during install. I have yet to do a project without any struggles. At the end of the video, I saw the mirror installed in the bathroom. Now I know why there was blue tape above the bathroom sink.
I use a 1.5” clamp on drain saddle with 1/4” female threads. Like you would use with a RO water system. Works good for me and looks clean and simple. BTY, love watching you guys. I get many good ideas.
Great content and progress on the Stud Pack Dream House! I truly appreciate the attention to detail and advice, around all topics but for this video - the sink drain pipe diameter - shows the true real world experience of always learning an adding to our (and ours!) knowledge!
Wow! If only I knew about a combo sink and dishwasher unit. That is so practical when you don't want to pile up and wait till the end of the week to wash dishes. A big dishwasher stinks while it sits with dirty dishes until you have enough of a load to run it.
I'm confused that they didn't go with a single drawer (eg. 17" tall) dishwasher. Uses up just a tad more under-counter space without the drain line hassle, and you gain back the countertop space for meal prep, etc.... Maybe this one they chose is less than 24" wide.
Great video as usual! Great explanation on the dishwasher/sink install! You need your own network TV show! Watch out world here comes Paul!! Need to share all his videos with HGTV and the Magnolia Network!
Never dealt with Delta, but I’m a huge fan of Moen. Lifetime no questions asked warranty on cartridges and they have GREAT customer service. EDIT: I also use dope on the rubber ring, I’ve had them leak and never had them leak when I do that.
In my experience, Delta is a little better built than Moen, dollar for dollar, and Moen is sometimes more....striking, visually? Something like that. I think technically that they have identical warranties, as well, but i've read that Moen is much easier to deal with in that regard.
Having been a GC for many years and recently did my own kitchen finally and regarding the DW we never used the old one so with the new kitchen setup I ran all the lines and cap them off, installed a cabinet instead. So if we ever sell I can remove the cabinet and install a DW. I find it more of a pain in the donkey to load and unload a DW than to simply wash the dishes. 👍🇺🇸
I live in the Netherlands and I have never heard about connecting hot water to a dishwasher. Maybe to a professional dishwasher in a restaurant but never for home installation. Love your videos
So nifty way i have found to deburr metal like that drawer. A wire wheel on the drill held parallel to the cut. Not 100% but in the 90s for how often it works. Smooths it out better then a file or even sanding. And generally depending on thickness and hardness even a brass wire wheel will work.
I am a DIYer, but I always purge the water lines by attaching an extra supply hose to the angle stop (shut off valve) and putting the other end into a bucket. Only after that purge, will I attach the permanent supply lines ... regardless of whether there is a removable aerator or not. This separate step makes sense because not all connection go to a faucet, for example the supply line to ice maker or the reverse osmosis system.
Really neat appliance - first time I've ever seen something like this. With all that extra weight on the counter over that sink opening I think I'd be looking to reinforce the front side of the cabinet under that little sliver of countertop.

I'm a big fan of Delta faucets and stuff because the finish is on point, but also because you can generally buy parts locally if you need to repair in the future install of just replacing.
What I usually do when a fitting is just a bit too small for hoses is to wrap some electrical tape around it really tight, that way you can slightly increase the size of it. I also usually do 2 hose clamps per fitting, rotated 180 degrees from each other because sometimes the seal they create has a little flat spot where the screw for the clamp is. This is mostly in higher pressure systems though, so for drainage 1 would suffice I reckon! Greetings from the Netherlands!
I always use 1.5” tee like the one at 22.:50 with a pvc 1’ coupling and then u can use the pvc reducer with female threads. The tee I use is the one u use with the dual drain type sinks This 1” coupling outside diameter is the same as 1.5 “ and u can use the rubber prints to make it seal like a p trap or trap adapter and also great with ac drain lines . Super clean
Good job on the sink. This is one of those projects where a 3d printer would have come I'm handy. You could make a cap with a compression fitting to hold the condensate hose. I had to do this for a similar project.
I agree with the other comments that the sink/dishwasher mock up is brilliant. But I noticed that the hose clamps will be facing the wall after installation. If you had to work on those hoses in the future its going to take more work to remove the hose clamps. 34:43
So my plumber mentioned that on kitchen sinks on new const or remodels he'll run 2" or 2.5" from the sink to the mainline and just adapt right at the outlet in the wall. Since kitchen sinks are usually the first ones to plug and that lets anyone get bigger rotorooter type stuff in there to clean it out and not get stuck on corners. (and hopefully never needed). I thought that was pretty genius.
As far as the electrical goes for the dishwasher, I would recommend installing a breaker lock-out at the panel instead of adding a switch under the sink, looks cleaner and is code compliant.
I like the in sink dishwasher! Cool to rinse and drop in the dishwasher. Will definitely miss a double well sink though. Good for bachelor life. Eat clean and walk away.
I’ll be curious if that wiring for the d/w passes code. In my area it would fail miserably. No shutoff at the appliance and the power needs to be adjacent to the d/w opening. Fingers crossed for ya!
Yes, I'm in Texas, and there is a switch over my countertop which turns off the dishwasher power. The disconnect has to be within visual range from the dishwasher, I believe. Putting a single outlet where the whip is now might be acceptable, as then you can unplug the dishwasher. It probably needs to be GFCI as well, it might be in the panel. I think the inspector may watch the videos, but perhaps not the comments.
When I was an apprentice I had a pretty much full small can of primer in some new cabinets. I had cardboard under it which ultimately led to my downfall. I got out to get something and my elbow was on the cardboard and pulled it and spilled the can. Another option so you don’t have to carry an extra can is to just use glue. According to the glue manufacturer, primer isn’t needed. We use it because it’s code and does make a better seal for understand, in wall stuff. Both methods are technically illegal but I’ve yet to meet an inspector who failed me for it. In the tailpiece, I never put pipe dope on the washer but it won’t hurt anything. I do however teflon the threads. I’ve head a few that water comes out the overflow and will follow the threads down. It also makes it easier to slide the washer up
This dishwasher is like inventing the paperclip, why didn't anyone think of this sooner for low capacity use/needs and the abaility to wash foods w/o splash mess as a bonus, what's not to like.. genius! Ray
Great program, at the beginning of this episode i could see the outside of the garage door area and it looks like it could benefit by adding a flat roof awning just above the garage door (a mid century design look). I'm not being critical of the design but for some reason it just looks like it should be there. Again the project looks great and the details you guy's address make it all worth it!
Saddle clamp/drain clamp for the condensate line. Easy push connect and install wherever is best on drain line. They make them in 1/4” and 3/8” (possibly more or metric?).
I think I read in the manual that every DIY plumbing job requires at least 3 trips to the supply store. It is a rule.
every home improvement project, no matter how small. AT LEAST 3 trips in the first day.
The pros have the equivalent of whatever aisle they specialize in already on their truck when they show up. They bring the store with them!
i was surprised when i took out my old sink yesterday all the old plumbing worked even though the drain was in a different location and i only had to go to the hardware store once! haha
My personal plumbing DIY rule is never start a plumbing project on a Sunday if you have to work on Monday. 😊
@@karenmitchell6814 you have to start on monday just in case. The weekend is to recuperate
That dishwashing sink is wild! Your technique of mocking-up the connections before installation is brilliant.

Years ago my boss showed me a trick. Use a pencil and go around the flange and the plumber’s putty . Works like a charm.
@@mikeinmarylandgenius, also I bet a tooth pick or nail set would work the blade could scratch the sink too, but he was careful
I believe the dish washer uses cold water as opposed to hot is because, at least here in Europe, most houses don't filter hot water as much as they filter cold water because cold is usually made very safe to drink straight from the tap. Therefore hot water has more 'contaminants'. Where I live we have a lot of clay and dolomite and filtrating all that can get expensive when you're filtering for both hot and cold so we just do cold. All in all, the reason I think this dish washer uses cold is to have the best water possible so the dishes are cleaner and your pipes don't get clogged.
Im planing to get one of those in my condo when I re-do my kitchen, seen all the videos about this, this is hands down the best one and saved for future reference..
I feel like i joined you when you had like 15k subscribers.. a little before the "Sunken Chapel" Its been cool watching you guys grow and i love watching you teach and build.
Manufacturer most likely recommends the cold water connection due to the fruit and seafood washing feature of the fancy model and they just kept their instructions consistent for both models. You’re a legend for making it to page 12 Paul
That little sink/dishwasher is awesome for a single person's apartment!
Japan is famous for those cause it saves space. Also washing machines and dryer.
@@keithfreitas2983most people in China are hanging clothes, but I think the younger homeowners are putting in dryers. Btw they have been using the combo units in Europe for a long time and have them in the us also , but they have their own set of issues, mainly they’re complex and slow. We did an 18” dishwasher in my brother’s place in New Orleans because it’s a small kitchen which I’d prefer over the counter model only for the ability for replacement when the time comes.
I had to do the same thing to our drawer under our kitchen sink a couple years ago. Seeing Paul do it makes me feel validated. You guys do a SUPER job.
I’m so glad to see you guys working on this project I intend to install this same sink/dishwasher and seeing you guys do this was amazingly helpful, and thank you for the advice on locating the rough ins after talk dealt with this
I love the combination dishwasher and sink, that is so effective. Definitely will consider that in any future place we get/build. One of the best videos on how to install all the connections/etc. before hand.
clever idea .. but what service person out there knows how to repair it? and where/how to get parts? and if it can't be repaired you have quite unusual space in counter to deal with. I'm a keep it simple guy - standard appliances easy to repair and if necessary, replace.
I'm from the Old Safety Engineer School...Wear both belt "and" suspenders, so anyone thinking adding extra pipe dope (the proper term evades me right now, but I'm sure someone will correct me) or plumbers putty "just to make sure," along with all the other "extras" a lot may think is unnecessary just for peace of mind. Worth its weight in gold for me. Peace of mind is a very good thing. And when Jordan said wait and unscrewed the support making moving the completed sink easier? As one of my bosses told me over half a century ago...Dammit...Don't work harder, work smarter. And...Y'All did just that. Great job and very informative video. While most of my comments were about the sink, I learned a lot from the vanity and bathroom sink install as well. I definitely appreciate all the tips and insight into how and why you arrive at the decisions you make. Bonus!! Helps me access things before just jumping in and screwing up. As another boss told me, there is nothing so pressing you can't stop and say "just wait a minute" and reassess the situation before charging in (as some would say, like a bull in a china closet) full speed ahead. Please keep the great videos coming!!
Paul, you can say super as much as you want.
I never noticed the “super” comments but an “alright, guys” count per video would be interesting!
I love how Paul narrates this channel. I wish we could meet Mrs Stud Pack because she has fantastic taste in design.
I think she’s been in a few vids
This whole house was designed by Jordan from what they’ve been saying the whole way along
She's loves center stage but hates being on camera. I'm shy by nature... go figure
I think in stud pack 2 we see her and know whom she is in her interior designs and her love for the art of it, would love to see more of what she has done,
@@quartzofcoursethey’ve mentioned a few times that she’s helped Jordan with some things
Remember water leak alarm for bathroom and kitchen. Nice if it can also shut off the whole house water supply.
I have a few China Tuya wireless ones and a add on shut off motor for my main valve.
Has saved my basement once when a pipe burst at night
Paul you are super! I was just telling my husband your like the dad that many of us didn't have - the handy guy who teaches us tips & tricks for this pesky home improvement or home maintenance projects! Thank you!
I want to thank you guys for bringing to light some interesting products that have helped me with a project I’m working on and for showing some of the issues that can come up so I don’t have to go through the learning process myself lol.
Looks fantastic guys! It’s getting there. Exciting when finishing pieces go in. Soon enough the Studpack LED Garondo will be complete! It’s been a long journey and a definite fun, learning experience.
I like it when you use the tape that has Metric on it as well. Gives me a way to understand dimentions better. Greetings from Europe. :D
Great video again!!! One note, be very careful to remove any flammable stuff from your shop vac before sucking up steel cuts. Found his out he hard way. Also, you can cook fish in a dishwasher. It's pretty good and cleanup is a breeze. thanks again!!!
That mock-up was genius.
I really like the way you did the cutout for the trap. I bought my house in 1998 and installed Delta faucets and I used clear silicone rather than plumber's putty when I install the drains. The aerators in the faucets corroded and I couldn't get them out without destroying the faucet so I bought two new Delta faucets in 2023 and installed them. Fantastic faucets and when I removed the drains from the sinks that silicone was perfectly sealed and lasted 25 years and was still good. Plumber's putty dries out and cracks and I know that from sinks I had to fix in rental properties.
i’m in the hospitality industry & deal with cleats all the time for installing furniture. that floating vanity looks awesome.
Paul, great job narrating & explaining your tecknics about how you do things. Like the sink dishwasher combo. Waiting to see the finished apartment. Like the bathroom mirror Jordan.
Paul I’ve been plumbing for 30 years and I was proud of you to say you put pipe dope on the bottom rubber I also recommend putting it on toilet tank bolt washers because of the roughness of the porcelain
Thanks Jason!!
In the bathroom cabinet, I would install a wooden partition in front of the water inlets and outlets to make it look neat and tidy.
Looks good guys, when connecting the hose for the condensate under the lav sink, it's always a good idea to have grade on the tubing. Just roll the grey barbed fitting down and you have grade. Love the channel and everyone involved.
You always look like you’re having a great time. Love it!!
I bought Lexel after seeing you use it. Had to drive to a Lowe’s to get it. Used it on a roof to sidewall joint area that decided to leak in a rainstorm. Great stuff. Sticks to anything, dried pretty fast and you hardly see it. Pricey stuff but worth it ! 👍
Great to hear!
I have also used Lexel based on your recommendations! Great results!
They actually make a product called through the roof that is made for the roof(go figure) . its basically lexel with uv inhibitors I believe. its great stuff.
After foundation settlement (which required adding piers to re-level the slab) I had groundwater seeping upward thru the slab around the PVC toilet drain. I added a nice thick layer of Lexel around the PVC and sealed it off to the concrete slab. It has sealed it up perfectly. Now I believe I have the same upward seepage in a wall of the shower where the water lines come up thru the slab. Didn’t realize that groundwater may have been the source of the water when we had to rebuild the rotted shower studs and entire shower. Termites loved it! Now I need to open the wall to check and will likely have to Lexel around the incoming water lines.
So much effort and so many parts to install drainpipe and trap. They now sell a kit with a flexible hose you cut to length and kink to form the trap then screw into your drainpipes on either end. Easy peasy, one simple hose, no more messing around with angles and rings and fittings and cutting pipes. I used it on my last bathroom remodel and will never go back to the old way.
Cold water to the dishwasher, in Europe thats normal. I never heard of warm water to the dishwasher until i started to look at American Diy channels. Same as clear one component glue for drainage-pipe, we use only that.
Anaway, i give it 10 more years and then you will al be using metric 😁
The build is going great, and the template for the router on the saw-table, why didn"t i think of that!!! That would have saved me half a day. Great tip from a pro, thank you again and keep up the good work!!
I wonder if they use hot water in the US because they are on 120V, so it takes a long time to heat water. It doesn't take us long to heat up water so we can use cold water
@@thelibraryismyhappyplace1618 Realy good poimt, sounds valid, i have no idea. The amps are more, i think, important to heat op water, but then again it could be the voltage.
This is my favorite channel on youtube! Thank you Paul, Jordan,and Rad!!!! Keep up the great work!!!
Wow, thanks!
Just incredible attention to detail. Paul is at a whole new level of experience these days. The painters tape, the cardboard, the pre-planning and building, the vacuum cleaner at the ready - all the tricks that come from years if experience.
Using the router was next level
The jig router thing was a really nice touch. Noted for the future...
another advantage of Delta is that any plumber can get you a replacement cartridge when it goes bad. Brand WTH knows, no chance, they are replacing the whole faucet.
That’s what I like about moen. All their cartridges are same for the type. I have my next 3 replacements already because the same cartridge is good for the vanity, the kitchen, and the shower. Easy swap.
Agreed! Just went through the replacement cartridge search for an out of production off brand. Finally found an open package one eBay. Luckily it fit and worked.
Nice job on the vanity in the bathroom. Pretty cool to see the dishwasher in the sink pretty neat.
I'm a HUGE FAN of having the sink plumbing off to one side in the vanity! Makes it easier to store stuff in it!
gonna wait on that few month review on that sink dishwasher combo cause that'd be perfect for my kitchen
Doing a mock install first was a great idea for the viewers and for you. Beats doing it all on your knees. An extra step, but it seemed like it was worth it.
Whether I do the plumbing myself or if I have my plumber come do the job. I always lay a couple paper towels under all drains and stops for a few days, while completing the job. The towel test has saved me come backs I don’t know how many times!!
Paul you are the best ! Love to watch you do what you do ! Stud Pack Rocks!😊
That first "P" trap on the dishwasher is not a P trap. It's a sweep to drain better. And it doesn cause an S trap where it can suction them both out is because you have that vent line that goes to the vacuum break and to the garbage disposal where most dishwasher connect to. So it's a neat design.
Cool, thanks Mike 👍
Great plumbing video. Thanks for showing the struggles during install. I have yet to do a project without any struggles. At the end of the video, I saw the mirror installed in the bathroom. Now I know why there was blue tape above the bathroom sink.
Love me some stud pack! Can’t wait for the house build. You guys are killing it! Paul you are SUPER!
Great installation. Really appreciate all the details.
Thanks for taking the time to create this very informative and interesting video.
I use a 1.5” clamp on drain saddle with 1/4” female threads. Like you would use with a RO water system. Works good for me and looks clean and simple.
BTY, love watching you guys.
I get many good ideas.
Great content and progress on the Stud Pack Dream House! I truly appreciate the attention to detail and advice, around all topics but for this video - the sink drain pipe diameter - shows the true real world experience of always learning an adding to our (and ours!) knowledge!
I recommend sealing those bare mdf edges where you cut the hole for the trap.
Wow! If only I knew about a combo sink and dishwasher unit. That is so practical when you don't want to pile up and wait till the end of the week to wash dishes. A big dishwasher stinks while it sits with dirty dishes until you have enough of a load to run it.
I'm confused that they didn't go with a single drawer (eg. 17" tall) dishwasher. Uses up just a tad more under-counter space without the drain line hassle, and you gain back the countertop space for meal prep, etc.... Maybe this one they chose is less than 24" wide.
Another great vid guys-looking sick! And the idea of a plumbing mock-up/pre-assembly is genius-that alone was worth the price of admission.
Great video as usual! Great explanation on the dishwasher/sink install! You need your own network TV show! Watch out world here comes Paul!! Need to share all his videos with HGTV and the Magnolia Network!
Never dealt with Delta, but I’m a huge fan of Moen. Lifetime no questions asked warranty on cartridges and they have GREAT customer service. EDIT: I also use dope on the rubber ring, I’ve had them leak and never had them leak when I do that.
In my experience, Delta is a little better built than Moen, dollar for dollar, and Moen is sometimes more....striking, visually? Something like that. I think technically that they have identical warranties, as well, but i've read that Moen is much easier to deal with in that regard.
Pipe dope on the lower gasket - brilliant.
Thanks 👍
Every step seems to have modifications! No problem for Super Paul! Way to go guys!
Having been a GC for many years and recently did my own kitchen finally and regarding the DW we never used the old one so with the new kitchen setup I ran all the lines and cap them off, installed a cabinet instead. So if we ever sell I can remove the cabinet and install a DW. I find it more of a pain in the donkey to load and unload a DW than to simply wash the dishes. 👍🇺🇸
You obviously don’t have kids lol. If I were to hand wash all my dishes each day, my water bill would be $1000/month 😂
@@remodz6385 Great point , it’s just myself and the wife now. 👍👍✌🏽✌🏻✌🏼🇺🇸
Can't wait for the garage to be finish. Keep out the great work 👍
I like that kitchen & dishwasher combo, nicely done.
I live in the Netherlands and I have never heard about connecting hot water to a dishwasher. Maybe to a professional dishwasher in a restaurant but never for home installation. Love your videos
So nifty way i have found to deburr metal like that drawer. A wire wheel on the drill held parallel to the cut. Not 100% but in the 90s for how often it works. Smooths it out better then a file or even sanding. And generally depending on thickness and hardness even a brass wire wheel will work.
Another great video nothing is easy when you take pride in your work great job guys
I am a DIYer, but I always purge the water lines by attaching an extra supply hose to the angle stop (shut off valve) and putting the other end into a bucket. Only after that purge, will I attach the permanent supply lines ... regardless of whether there is a removable aerator or not. This separate step makes sense because not all connection go to a faucet, for example the supply line to ice maker or the reverse osmosis system.
Really neat appliance - first time I've ever seen something like this. With all that extra weight on the counter over that sink opening I think I'd be looking to reinforce the front side of the cabinet under that little sliver of countertop.
SITTIN IN THE TRUCK PACK 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽 😂😂😂
Great video as always Paul and company killed it 🫡
I Love You Guys And Your Energy/Chemistry keep Up The Good Work...!! P.S. Custom Built-in 's For The Main House Is The Way To Go...!! Modifying Someone Else's Work Is Painstaking...!! Team Stud Pack, All Day All The Way...!!
I'm a big fan of Delta faucets and stuff because the finish is on point, but also because you can generally buy parts locally if you need to repair in the future install of just replacing.
Super sink installation, Stud Pack!
Saw that sink. Always wanted to try it. Cool.
What I usually do when a fitting is just a bit too small for hoses is to wrap some electrical tape around it really tight, that way you can slightly increase the size of it.
I also usually do 2 hose clamps per fitting, rotated 180 degrees from each other because sometimes the seal they create has a little flat spot where the screw for the clamp is.
This is mostly in higher pressure systems though, so for drainage 1 would suffice I reckon!
Greetings from the Netherlands!
I always use 1.5” tee like the one at 22.:50 with a pvc 1’ coupling and then u can use the pvc reducer with female threads. The tee I use is the one u use with the dual drain type sinks This 1” coupling outside diameter is the same as 1.5 “ and u can use the rubber prints to make it seal like a p trap or trap adapter and also great with ac drain lines . Super clean
Good job on the sink. This is one of those projects where a 3d printer would have come I'm handy. You could make a cap with a compression fitting to hold the condensate hose. I had to do this for a similar project.
He is definitely a legend in his own mind!
That combo is crucial. this is coming along awesomely!
Hands down the best construction yt channel.
Sink is a pretty nice set up. Great work guys!
I agree with the other comments that the sink/dishwasher mock up is brilliant. But I noticed that the hose clamps will be facing the wall after installation. If you had to work on those hoses in the future its going to take more work to remove the hose clamps. 34:43
Thanks but any way you turn them they're inaccessible back there😡
If a hose clamp is preventing you from getting the job done it may be time to call a professional 😂
I've not seen one of those dishwashers in a home before, they are used in some high end boats. Great idea for smaller spaces.
OMG you guys are so close. I can't wait to see the finished product.
So my plumber mentioned that on kitchen sinks on new const or remodels he'll run 2" or 2.5" from the sink to the mainline and just adapt right at the outlet in the wall. Since kitchen sinks are usually the first ones to plug and that lets anyone get bigger rotorooter type stuff in there to clean it out and not get stuck on corners. (and hopefully never needed). I thought that was pretty genius.
As far as the electrical goes for the dishwasher, I would recommend installing a breaker lock-out at the panel instead of adding a switch under the sink, looks cleaner and is code compliant.
I like the in sink dishwasher! Cool to rinse and drop in the dishwasher. Will definitely miss a double well sink though. Good for bachelor life. Eat clean and walk away.
I’ll be curious if that wiring for the d/w passes code. In my area it would fail miserably. No shutoff at the appliance and the power needs to be adjacent to the d/w opening. Fingers crossed for ya!
Yes, I'm in Texas, and there is a switch over my countertop which turns off the dishwasher power. The disconnect has to be within visual range from the dishwasher, I believe. Putting a single outlet where the whip is now might be acceptable, as then you can unplug the dishwasher. It probably needs to be GFCI as well, it might be in the panel. I think the inspector may watch the videos, but perhaps not the comments.
When I was an apprentice I had a pretty much full small can of primer in some new cabinets. I had cardboard under it which ultimately led to my downfall. I got out to get something and my elbow was on the cardboard and pulled it and spilled the can. Another option so you don’t have to carry an extra can is to just use glue. According to the glue manufacturer, primer isn’t needed. We use it because it’s code and does make a better seal for understand, in wall stuff. Both methods are technically illegal but I’ve yet to meet an inspector who failed me for it.
In the tailpiece, I never put pipe dope on the washer but it won’t hurt anything. I do however teflon the threads. I’ve head a few that water comes out the overflow and will follow the threads down. It also makes it easier to slide the washer up
Your attention detail is awesome 👍
This dishwasher is like inventing the paperclip, why didn't anyone think of this sooner for low capacity use/needs and the abaility to wash foods w/o splash mess as a bonus, what's not to like.. genius! Ray
Great program, at the beginning of this episode i could see the outside of the garage door area and it looks like it could benefit by adding a flat roof awning just above the garage door (a mid century design look).
I'm not being critical of the design but for some reason it just looks like it should be there.
Again the project looks great and the details you guy's address make it all worth it!
Good idea.
I had the same idea, it does need something
Saddle clamp/drain clamp for the condensate line. Easy push connect and install wherever is best on drain line. They make them in 1/4” and 3/8” (possibly more or metric?).
