People are crazy , the pee trap does come apart enough to clean , best underside plumbing job I have seen
Thankyou! Never would have been able to do this without you, and never would have unclogged my drain, without the video.
Thank you so much for this simple straight demo. Save my sink once and fore ever after!
Thanks for the tip about only pushing the adjustable handle, it wouldn’t budge before!
1:08 that was so crucial for me. lol. I was doing it the other way and thought it required the strength of Hercules to loosen
Good video

you always will get negative comments, don't pay attention, just envy people. i am so grateful with your videos, i finished myself installing plumbing on my kitchen sinks.
but one thing a had trouble is finding the ABS parts here in Virginia USA, had to ordered online but took long time instead, used 1 1/2 PVC followed your instruction, glued everything and its is working fine, no leaks.
thank you so much for your videos, keep up with the good work!!
Hi Joral River, Thank you so much for the positive feedback. Nice job on your project! Take care!
PVC or ABS really makes no difference. All of the fittings for the ABS also come in PVC.
I think he used ABS because that was the material of the drain pipe. ABS may also be cheaper but IDK.
Thank you so much!!! Love the tip on using the plier. I wished this video was easily searchable because it didn't come up on my search. May I suggest adding to the video title "p trap cleaning" or something similar? It would help many of us finding the video quicker.
Thanks Troy! Cheers!
Thank you, I really appreciate this video! 👍👍👍
Ur "yes, we break it" sarcasm at the end got me just a giggling. In the words of Mr. White... "you can't fix stupid" 😂
Omg you’re a life saver! Ty!!!!
I need to strip mine down to clean it. Thanks for the video
Hell yeah we break it. Hell yeah.
its a wonderful job. awesome . Thanks man.
Thank you for this video
My kitchen sink clogged and i tried to fix it but i dk how cos most of pipe in the video is the white one. Then i found this! Its not as hard as i thought it would be to fix clogged pipe lol i found wax blocking my pipe 🤦♀️
Thank you so much!
I actually did have that question on your other video. I can see that it's not really a big deal.
The number one thing I like about your install is that you use real sturdy piping so you don't have to worry about accidentally knocking something loose putting something underneath the sink.
I suppose if people had a problem with a p-trap issue couldn't they somehow add a trap adapter after the glued p-trap end?
Handsome man :)
Great video. Please keep them coming. One quick question. Would you recommend putting a bottle trap and then a p-trap under the kitchen sink? Or do you suggest avoid putting a bottle trap under a kitchen sink?
It is against code to use a bottle trap for a kitchen sink where I live. I know they are very common in European Countries. They are allowed on some basin installs where I live, with approval. I personally would always use a p-trap for a kitchen sink if you have the room. They are easier to clean and have better flow.
Side Note: Other traps banned in Alberta, Canada. Bell Trap, S-trap, Drum-trap. They're some specialty traps for specific installs as well. Such as traps for a hair salons that have a screen to catch the hair. Thanks for the great question!
@@PROSDIY Thanks for your response. Any idea on why bottle trap is not permitted where you live?
@@amardeep5821 I believe it's due to the restriction within the trap, similar to a drum trap. This would lead to more clogs since food scraps can be put down the kitchen sinks.
Very informative, professional. (UK). Thank you.
I have a double sink with no vent but the p trap is under the floor so I’m thinking I’ll put a aav under the floor on that pipe. Good idea or no?
I think you're under sink breathing apparatus should be as high as possible.
What do you do when you put it back together and the connection to the trap mysteriously shrinks about a half an inch😖🤦♂️😒
I can't find anything that addresses my pipe confusion 😒 . I have a clogged drain. The unions at both sinks are glued. The pea trap is glued. There is a piece no one I've watched shows. It is a part of the pipe running between the sinks horizontally. The top has a short slanted "Y" piece with a metal hexagonal screw? I need to know if that is how I can clean out any debris. I need to know what it is called and what it is for. Help an old lady please. 🙏
Hard to envision. Perhaps take a few pictures and take them down to your hardware store and ask a plumbing associate.
Tell them to use cast iron , take them apart and clean each piece every time
Do I need to turn the water off?
No, there's no pressure in that pipe. It's just plain drain pipe. Just remember not to turn on the water to rinse your hands when the piping is disconnected.
(Ask me how I know 😂😂😂).
how come they dont have the screw on connector near the trap on both sides so people can remove JUST the U-shaped piece for cleaning?? it seems rather stupid to have to remove the whole giant piece with the diswasher drain hose attached....am I missing something here??? thanks!
I had the same question ... At 2:55 I believe he mentions that with ABS you don't have double-union p-traps. The "unions" being the screw on connectors. My kitchen sink plumbing was designed the same way, one end with a screw-on connector and the other end glued in. At least we can now see how to gain access if we need to ... even though it's a small pain. We need to write to the ABS Gods and get double-union p-traps on the market :-)
@@Marcoosianism indeed!!! thanks!
I believe you could add a trap adapter just on the other side of the glued joint of the p-trap which would then allow the p-trap alone to be removed.
I really like the idea that there's less threaded joints because it makes for a much more sturdy pipe system so you don't have to worry about accidentally knocking something loose just because you put something under the sink.
Geez I really struggle when doing work, fml.
Oh. There are no slipnuts. Mine are glued
So you don’t need to shut off water line first
one of the nut is so stuck and i dropped a diamond ring down there 😩
I like stupid comments...you should tell them just never use it so no cleaning needed
RUclips comments can be amusing.
They're usually about a half step above 4chan and the like. With a few nuggets sprinkled in.

Great, but you don't tell us how to remove the pipe. My pipe is stuck, somebody wrenched the fcking thing on about 40 years ago. It ain't moving at all with pipe wrenches even
Not handy at all. Can a handyman do this or should I hire a plumber?
You can do this Net M! As a matter of fact, buy a six pack of beer and invite a handy friend over and do it together 💠. You'll have some friend time and you'll learn something. Next time maybe you can go over and help him do something. Either holding the dumb end of a tape measure for them or helping him do something he's not good at (cleaning, filing, financial planning, etc ). 👍
No actually the King James Bible is not the best Bible it’s the 1599 Geneva Bible because it also has some of the books that they conveniently left out of the king James Bible, and other Bibles to Please research more before you tell other people what Bible to read. Thank Blessings 🙏
Good video
