I am starting this project in the lower level of my raised ranch. You speak clearly and consciously and that's a skill set in its self., Thank you so much for taking the time to do this video. This is going to help me out a great deal!!
I am about to start almost the same project. I have to install an ejector pump also. The part where you extended your cleanout to add the pump discharge. This is exactly what I needed to know! Thank you!
I second this, trying to figure out how to get my existing basement shower drain moved and prevent sewer gas from coming out of the drain. Big help with this video.
this is one of the best videos i have seen. No bullshitting, no acting ALL knowledgeable,and keeping it real. Nice glue job. Id say that when you start laying pipe, if you leave a long piece in you can tell where you are going and bed it in as you go. Leaving the top of the pipe exposed, and holding the trunkline still. good job!
Thanks for posting this, looking to do about the same setup in my semi-finished basement. I saw your final video and the finished product turned out fantastic. Nice work man, if mine turns out even close to that good my wife and I will be very pleased!
Greetings from Malaysia. Great video, narrative and honesty. I like the way you solved the venting without compromising the layout. Takes a lot of thinking. This video has clarity. Helps me with my work, especially working on tight space. I give this video an A+
Thank you for that video sir. My concrete is out now and today was digging day. I wasn't sure for the shower part but looking at your installation and comparing it to mine well it reassured me. A plumber was asking $5000 for a similar job, but eh!, I've got time ahead of me and hopefully it will look just as good as your job. I love youtube:)
RUclipsr's are always so critical on trade job videos. Everyone's an expert on the internet. This video is great, I'm about to do basically the exact same job, great to hear it's working smoothly.
Great video thanks. If my back wasn't wrecked I'd be doing the work myself. Instead I'll contract out the rough in and then finish the job myself. I still wanted an understanding of the work and your video definitely gave me that. Thanks again.
To all the RUclips experts, code citing clowns, and Debbie downers: 4 years later (project was completed June, 2014) and I'm happy to report that I have had ZERO issues with this install. That's right NONE! So to all the BS comments I've gotten over the years (most of which I delete because it's just not worth my time) maybe you should just go have a beer instead of being a tool and striking the keys on your keyboard like you're some plumbing god. Or better yet, post a video of your install so we can criticize you as well, Cheers!

You're always going to have shit for brains commenting, just ignore them. Quite an undertaking for someone that doesn't do this as their day job. Curious what is your normal job?
Quick pro tip. Normally its not required but it is preferred, the shower should be put as the first fixture in your branch as the toilet when flushed it creates drag specially being in a horizontal Y that will vent toilet and shower that brings me to the next problem. This isnt a wet vent. It is still considered a dry vent as the Y 1/8 vent from the p trap shower will be dry which is illegal. If a blockage does ever happened and that portion of the pipe has blockage you will have problems with toilet and shower and now potentially running that trap dry when flushing the toilet by creating siphon. So remember to add a clean out on that vent as it is a must at this point since it's considered a dry vent. A wet vent is considered a a fixture that will drains and will as well as vent vertically. A clean out is always added in this. You can vent a restroom with a single wet vent. Now lastly. As i explain in the beginning, we dont use horizontal vents and if so it is required to always have a clean out. A better way should always be a stack vent that will vent vertically and catch the drain using a sand tee.
I've been a union plumber for over 50 years and I've never needed nor have I ever purposely plumbed a wet vent. If you use one in California expect to fail the plbg. inspection.
Everything moves differently when you glue it. Pipes go deeper into fittings, you learned that fact the same way we "pro's" learn it. Happens to us all once. You did a great job, neat with the primer and glue, looks great bud.
Hey zims thanks for your video, I liked the layout you completed, I have a question on the shower vent main connection, where you placed a sanitary T, would it be better for a combo T? Thanks again
great video.....been a plumber for whole Lotta years. awesome job.....believe it or not I was shaking my head no watching video when you started talking about fitting all fittings together before you glue it....until u debunked it. great job sir
For DiY'ers, be VERY careful drilling holes through floor joists. They support A LOT of weight and there is a maximum amount of material you can remove from joist before they lose strength and you have to start reinforcing the joists. According to code the hole's diameter is limited to one-third the depth of the material. For example, for a 2x8 (1-1/2"x7-1/4" actually), the maximum hole diameter is 2-3/8". So, technically, his 2-1/2" holes violate code, though it is VERY close and probably okay, but double check your local jurisdiction as it applies to your project. There are techniques for strengthening joists with cut out material.
Great tip! You also want to be sure to remove the material as close to the center of the joist as possible; I noticed several of his that were probably closer to the bottom of the joist than they should be, where there is a lot of weight and pressure that could eventually crack the remaining material. Here's hoping that doesn't happen to him!
This was a very well done video. Thanks for doing it. I got a new house with an unfinished basement that was stubbed for a bathroom and didn't know what all of the unused pipes were for. This was a big help.
I really appreciate your videos on this basement remodel, especially the slab plumbing - that is the part I've had the most concern with doing myself. I feel a lot more confident now. And I agree about the dry fit thing. Every time I saw someone do that, I always thought, how can you get it all back in the same place after you dry fit it? It just seemed like it would all shift and get messed up.
MidnightMoon Thanks, glad to help. Once you get going with this project, you'll soon realize it's really easy work, just back breaking moving all the sand, dirt, and concrete. I got a good workout carrying 5 gallon buckets up and down my basement stairs
Dry fit all the time I just put a sharpie line on both pieces in several places on same pieces. Never had a problem. Sometimes it’s a wrestling match getting them off but lining up after no problems.
Exactly Jared Foster. It's almost like they can't help themselves. I watch many a video on RUclips. The know it alls are everywhere in full force citing that they're self proclaimed "code experts" or the leader of the "safety brigade". Some people really need to lighten up and enjoy life a little more. Take a RUclips video for what it's worth. If I had 10 so called "pros" come to my house to do a job, you better believe they would have 6-7 different approaches to it with each of them calling the other guy a moron for the way he did his installation.
+zimsjeep Thank you This was great in so many ways, I am a master Electrician, And need a little help on this Plumbing. >??? you keep slope 1 in for every 4 feet is that the same on every drain pipe?? you use 2 in PVC for shower and 11/4 for sinks?
+Alton Labrecque Yeah, 1/4" per foot pitch. Check your local code for pipe sizing. Changes by location what is the minimum required. Generally speaking, if you're wet venting you'll also need to upsize as well.
zimsjeep good job man, very very informational . I'm going to basically be doing the same job for an in law apt in my basement. what pump would you recommend for what is going to be used for is bathroom and a kitchen? is 1/2hp enough? thanks for the video
Hi mate I did the same thing installing drains and storm water mocked it all up then glued it was a shit fight went down the store and started again and did it in segments. Nice basement, don't see them in Australia very often.
Thanks for the comment, appreciate it. Yes, mocking up PVC for an exact fit before gluing rarely works correctly if you need everything to line up 100 percent. I much rather "glue as I go" and work with a tape measure to get everything right. Basement has been great and by far and away the best improvement I've made to our house.
Excellent video, well explained step by step, I'm planning to do the same project and your video is one of the best I've seen so far, thank you for taking the time to make this video , I just need to ask you : do I need a vent for each point or is there a way to do just one vent for all ?👍
I always dry fit. But when you dry fit make sure you use a gold paint marker while you dry fit. Lay it all out exactly how it's supposed to be. Write A to A - B to B. That way when you reassemble and glue you just like your letters up.
Zimsjeep, nice job. I would like to add, only to help viewers, that some of the design wouldn't be legal in my state. Specifically: 1) wet venting a toilet, 2) the bar sink drain having more than 1 90-degree turn before the vent (2, 45's count as one 90). My important message is that not all plumbing codes are the same, especially between US Northern and Southern states, then there's California. I would recommend to DIY viewers (who are having an inspection) who aren't 100% sure to use the city inspector to review the design (at city hall, they usually don't make house calls) prior to doing the work. My state allows homeowners to perform their own work. Some states do not (ridiculous). I also LOVE that you showed you messed up, ripped it all out, and did it again. For viewers: plumbing is an amazingly simple, yet complex trade. Complex due to the rules, like, why a Y fitting and not a T fitting, like, how many traps per what size vent, like, your telling me a 3 inch waste line can service 2 toilets, but when I add a 3rd toilet I have to use a 4 inch, like, always add a backflow (backwater) fitting for the branch going from the main line to the new branch line and I have to have access to it when it is underground, like, pressure testing drain lines, etc. If in doubt, try and use your public resource...and don't let the inspector bully you out of doing it yourself. Amazingly, some inspectors develop a god complex. Sad but true.
Thanks for the comment man. I agree 100 percent with everything you said. Everyone definitely needs to check their local codes. What's legal for me or you might not be elsewhere. I think that's where a lot of the confusion and finger pointing comes from on a RUclips diy video.
plumber helper two 45 equal a 90 ? which makes it illegal? What the fak you talking about... 2 45s is fine its called a long sweep which is fine. Unless Im not getting what your trying to say....And his toilet is vented with the wet vent..Is it legal prob not with code. However whats the chance of him flushing the toilet and using 2 sinks all at the same time. For a homeowner job..Damn good job here ! Ive seen plumbers do worse work!
codes were written for reasons. other wise,,, i think you did pretty good. i could pick it apart all day... you had a vtr vent through roof.. luckily, the hardest part of a basement ad .. ( a subsoils system) is getting a vent through roof. much of the expence... the code use to be two vents.. plumbing and tank,,, thank god that changed. it was a nightmare.
Toilet needs vent .. in my area. Every fixture need individual vent. Except the doble vanity but. In this case I think u reached the minimum in the duty arm I think need vent as well . Is more than 4'3. The rest. All good nice and clean ..! 👍🏻
Nice job! If there is no vent at all to tap into, can you run a 2" vent through to an outside wall and then run it straight up to the roof? (run it up along side a downspout so its not as ugly as a pipe running up the middle of an outside wall).
Absolutely what I need, thanks!!! I am raising the garage floor about 12 inches and relocate the toilet , add two sink vanity shower and tub, all drain into one drainage. Can all use one vent?
Also for the ventilation can I throw the pipe threw the middle of my baseman and drive it outside the house so I will be able to connect the one for the pump toilet sinks etc in the one pipe that I will put in the middle of the baseman? Please correct me if I'm wrong. Thank you
Amazing. Question, having a hard time figuring out my venting. I’m only putting toilet and sink in the basement. Can I tie into the main stack that goes to the roof? Or do I need a separate dry vent that goes all the way up? Is the venting for your basement wet or dry?

this is what RUclips is all about.
Excellent. People helping people.
Well said!!
Thank you very much for the quick response! I purchased everything I needed at Home Depot thanks to your help!
I am about to start almost the same project. I have to install an ejector pump also. The part where you extended your cleanout to add the pump discharge. This is exactly what I needed to know! Thank you!
Grteat video! Thanks so much. I am just about to start a very similar basement bathroom project, and I feel so much more informed now.
Thank you for this! Helping my basement apartment project out IMMENSELY!
Christopher Peck you're welcome. Good luck with the project!
I second this, trying to figure out how to get my existing basement shower drain moved and prevent sewer gas from coming out of the drain. Big help with this video.
Well let me say I've seen plumbers do most jobs, I am just about to tackle a job similar to this I am so thankful that you posted this thank you
this is one of the best videos i have seen. No bullshitting, no acting ALL knowledgeable,and keeping it real. Nice glue job. Id say that when you start laying pipe, if you leave a long piece in you can tell where you are going and bed it in as you go. Leaving the top of the pipe exposed, and holding the trunkline still.
good job!
JR Stephens Thanks man, really appreciate it.
Just finished a very similar install using this video. Thank you good sir.
Posted 9 years ago and I still think it’s the best, easiest video to watch on this.

zimsjeep cool bro, farmers been doin it for years too.
You did it right. Besides the illegal vent. Didn't have a choice anyway.
My old friend use to say, "Some mf's will complain about free ice cream..". Good job!! Thanks
You're always going to have shit for brains commenting, just ignore them. Quite an undertaking for someone that doesn't do this as their day job. Curious what is your normal job?
Allot of illegal plumbing installed get permits your job wouldn't pass inspection in calif retired Insp tomy.
thats a lot of very hard work. looks like you've done it very well and explain it well

I think this is the best I have seen so far, thanks for taking the time out to bring us on board.
Thanks for the comment, you're welcome!
@@fixitwithzim guess what I'm back at it using the same video for my other house.
Great video. Gearing up to complete this project myself. Trying to fully understand the venting. I believe my local code allows for more wet venting.
Great that you took the time to make this video. Ty
You are a clever man good job thanks for the tips
Good clean job. Well done. The corrected mistakes are gold in the form of experience. Nice!
Dennis Crowley thank you!
Thank you this is really helping me on my project.
Everything moves differently when you glue it. Pipes go deeper into fittings, you learned that fact the same way we "pro's" learn it. Happens to us all once. You did a great job, neat with the primer and glue, looks great bud.
Victor Bingo Thank you buddy. Yes I learned the hard way but at least got it fixed before I moved on. Live and learn.
GREAT VIDEO - exactly the step by step info I was looking for. Thanks for posting.

Thanks for the compliment. Been almost 2 years that the bathroom has been in service. No issues or problems.
I don't know a thing about plumbing but for a guy who is not a pro, it looks darn clean to me! Hope it continues to not give you problems!!
+Clair Bear Thanks man...so far so good...not expecting any problems. Thanks for commenting and watching
For DiY'ers, be VERY careful drilling holes through floor joists.

Wow. It looks professional! Great Job!
Thanks for the comment!
Outstanding video very informative and well done.
Your instructions are great. Love your vide and learn much. Keep up the good work!

You are AOK my friend. Thank You !
Charles T. Murray thanks for the comment and for watching.
You did a nice job on this,
Hi I like you video helping me a lot just 1 question what pump did you use? I’m doing same thing but instead of shower I will be doing a tob
This was a very well done video. Thanks for doing it. I got a new house with an unfinished basement that was stubbed for a bathroom and didn't know what all of the unused pipes were for. This was a big help.

What you are supposed to do is measure your take out, glue lubricates and allows for you to slide your fittings in place perfectly.
Dry fit all the time I just put a sharpie line on both pieces in several places on same pieces. Never had a problem. Sometimes it’s a wrestling match getting them off but lining up after no problems.
Great video. Thanks so much.
Thanks this really helped

I installed a bathroom in my basement and used a Liberty upflush system. No concrete cutting and no problems with sewage backup.
Nice job. How much elevation can you get out of that pump? In other words how high will it pump the sewage before tying into horizontal septic pipe?
Easy install works great
Thank you. It is a very good video,

Nice Project!!!
Plumbers In Los Angeles CA Thanks
great video!!!
Absolutely what I need, thanks!!! I am raising the garage floor about 12 inches and relocate the toilet , add two sink vanity shower and tub, all drain into one drainage. Can all use one vent?
Yes, they can all tie into a common vent
Great job buddy thanks
Thanks, glad you found it helpful
Also for the ventilation can I throw the pipe threw the middle of my baseman and drive it outside the house so I will be able to connect the one for the pump toilet sinks etc in the one pipe that I will put in the middle of the baseman? Please correct me if I'm wrong. Thank you
Nice work brother 👏 💪 👍
Amazing. Question, having a hard time figuring out my venting. I’m only putting toilet and sink in the basement. Can I tie into the main stack that goes to the roof? Or do I need a separate dry vent that goes all the way up? Is the venting for your basement wet or dry?
Nice job 👍
Thank you!
Looks good
Clean work
