Simple, to the point, and you include some code requirements, which answers the why. This makes more sense than most other plumbing videos. Awesome job!
Besides being quieter in the wall, cast iron is more *fireproof* and won't give off *toxic fumes* when exposed to flame... that's why many high-rise codes specify only cast iron for DWV.
Also is this unversial for all state or does it differ state to state. Im in washinton state so is one inch every 4 feet up to par with washinton code and ive noticed in crawl spaces most plumbers use the metal pea tape not the plastic is that a actual code violation using metal pea tape in a crawl space
They perform the same. Regardless of the cost, ABS is a less toxic plastic. PVC is notoriously toxic it can even off gas in the air, so if you care about that stuff that can be something to consider :)
@@vroor32 I would guess that there is another reason but I'm really not sure... The plumbing code in my area actually has a line for ABS but I've not seen it used. PVC seems most common.
Yes, I also wonder. I need to replace a kitchen clean out section with a damaged plug cap. I can't understand why they used ABS that goes to PVC. And, I can't find the piece at any hardware store
Great video. Most people can't explain the basics. They start talking about personal abstractions.
Thank you! Down to earth and to the point!👍👍👍

Do the threaded fittings require any sealant or tape or washers
So for every 4 feet of run you will need. One inch total grade. Is this correct???

What is the cut allowance?
No chamfer needed??
Great video…clear and to the point….
What about deburring edge of pipe?
Optional when you are a plumbing for a job vs your own place : )
Which is better abs or pvc piping and fittings, or do they have different applications?
Is there more pipe fabrication for ABS and other plastic pipe?
thanks man awesome video
Try using that when underneath a house for 6hrs doing a 100ft drainage.
Screw all that! Just hand me the saw zall 😆
im gonna have to
What determents whether to use ABS or PVC. Cost?
They perform the same. Regardless of the cost, ABS is a less toxic plastic. PVC is notoriously toxic it can even off gas in the air, so if you care about that stuff that can be something to consider :)
@@Niklaosis that why PVC is to be used underground and ABS above ground? 🤔

💯💯💯
Is that ABS glue/cement a all in one or do you need primer also?
Good question. For ABS glue there is no primer but for PVC glue there is a primer and I recommend using it.
I'll take my Lennox ratchet cutters or my cordless sawzall, time is money
Who sells ABS pipe? Hardware stores don't carry it or carry very little of it
Yes, I also wonder. I need to replace a kitchen clean out section with a damaged plug cap.

Pvc better
You can't do that if you are working inside a hole.....
