I think its the best video out there on this job! I wish more "Experts" would focus on the job rather than their channel and add revenue. Thanks SOOO much :)
I'm a pro, have my own plumbing business. Yeah this guy did it perfectly, wouldn't have done any better myself.
No plumbing putting?
@@humbertocardoso9247 I'm sorry.. what?
Don't put that washer under the strainer a leak in one year.
@@truth6600 where should it go? Under it or use something else as a gasket?
@@paultalanoa9513 the gasket goes under the sink then the friction ring goes on it . Always put plumbers putty under collar.
Canadian plumber here. I must say this guy did this almost exactly as I would. Cleanout is a super idea, saves taking the whole thing apart when you someday have to clean the drain. This coming from someone who does both construction and service work. A+ job
Great and clean job..professionally done.👍👍
@@marcazran2777😊😊😮
I would hire you if I have any plumbing issues. Your quality of work is a step more than the pro level.
Question if you pull the hose from the faucet hard will it leak up in there. Because a plumber did that to my new faucet and claimed that it was a factory problem he pulled the hose all the way out as hard as he could and had a hard time getting it back in I'm assuming he broke loose up in there
Professional just means you get paid. Expert is something entirely different. This guy is an expert.
Wow, that is the best kitchen plumbing installation I have seen. I didn't even know cover plates were sold for plumbing. A very professional, and clean looking job. The video was excellent, good visuals, and great articulate audio. Thank You
Thanks for actually explaining why some of the standard practices are standard. Understanding the reason behind things makes it easier to apply those principles to various scenarios. Perfect for plumbing since every situation is a little different.
Thank you so much for the informative, fun to watch tutorial with all of the logic you explained behind the best practices!! Will be following your lead in tomorrow’s sink drain install up here in chilly central Washington where my drain pipe is coming straight up through the floor!👍🏼🙏🏼
I am a complete noob who has never done any kind of plumbing in my life and thanks to this awesome video I was just able to completely replace my kitchen sink drain system to support adding a dishwasher. Thank you so much for the clear and detailed tutorial!
I’m just about to start mine too. And I have no experience. I plan to install the AAV on top of the sink back so it’s above the FLR. Only difference is that I’m using pvc rather than abs. Praying that it works without any leaks.
Clear, thurough, highly informative.
No BS. Extremely well made and very much appreciated.
I'm in Tennessee, working on an old house. I'm not worried so much about the freezing issue as I am about the weird way the house was built. Running a vent through the wall would be almost impossible without an exorbitant amount of work. The air admittance valve is definitely going to be the easiest way to go for me. Thank you for the excellent demonstration!
Good morning I want Know d tooled for Cleaning
@@alieconteh2298 I’m afraid I didn’t understand your question.
Seems like much better quality the black pipes than the white one. Also the plumber's job is superb.
Thank you telosfd! Both ABS(black) and PVC (white) have their pros and cons. I typically just install either what the current home is ran in or what the inspectors want.
Man!! wish all the RUclipsr were like you,, straight to the point, Thanks a million for the video.
This vid got rid of a lot of my concerns about the plumbing in my kitchen
Time to redo it
Thank you for your amazing simple tutorial , highly useful as I am sure it would help so many of us . 2 days ago, a plumber ( here in Central Florida ) asked me to pay him 475 $ to re-do the plumbing under my sink , as you have just demonstrated . I can do it myself and save the 475 $ . I am so grateful to you .
Thanks for the great feedback! Good luck on your project!
This video was absolutely brilliant!!!! Although the pipes in this video are a bit differently set up than mine, the end result is incredible and will definitely work exceptionally well for my kitchen sink. Thank you for the video!!
Congratulations on the installation. Although pipe patterns are different in my country, the working concept shown in your video will serve as an inspiration for my next works. Simple and efficient operation and maintenance!!!
You are a Pro. I know nothing about plumming, but I enjoyed watching it. Thank you.
This is a really helpful video. Thank you. What would make this video even better would be a quick layout and overview of all the components required for the job (maybe even including tools). I'd love to see each of the elements in one shot to hear the names for each part.
Thank you for the great video. It saved the day and my drain actually drains. You are my hero today!
Glad the video was helpful! Thanks for the feedback!
Thank -you for this video, very informative , done by a person who knows what he or she is talking about, very professional, unlike a lot on you-tube. Tks Wils
Thank you. This gave me the confidence to re unscrew my pipe and see that the rubber ring was in the wrong place after initially thinking I fixed it. Now it's fixed.
Just hard plumbed 2 sinks with PVC, cuz that's how we roll here in Tennessee. With union at the P trap, it can still be disassembled to clean the trap. By placing the P trap as high as possible, was able to include a Wye clean out at the deck. Worked out great. Thanks for the video.
Nice job on your installs! Cheers!
I thought this would solve my problem but it didn't apply, but I just watched the entire video anyway as it showed a real pro at work. Great stuff!
You man i thought the video is running with accelerated speed, then i realized you are so fast. 👏👏👏
You are my new best friend. I've been fighting my non draining sink all week until I came upon your video. Fixed mistakes in about a hour, GREAT instruction. Thank you!!!
Great DIY instructions. Very professional looking plumbing work.
My 61 year-old house and I thank you for this video.
I have watched many videos on youtube, and this is the best one for it's simplicity in showing how and why the plumbing for sinks are done a certain way.. Well done.
Helpful and very organized video. Easy to understand and follow. Thank you.
Wow....I followed your instructions to plumb out under my new kitchen sink and it came out fantastic! Thank you so much for sharing this!
Awesome! Nice job!
Very good video. I personally make my drains with main emphasis on creating space,since that's the most common issue under the sink(bathroom too).
I always make them from pipe and fittings,instead the short pieces that comes bagged,and with time tend to loose and leak,damaging the furniture.
More than a professional job, quite efficient and exasperating just to watch the installer! Bravo!
Outstanding video! Extremely thorough, detailed and informative. Thank you
Great video-thank you :) My 54 year old house has a crazy DIY disaster under the sink and it's leaking. I might tackle the repair this weekend... I'm 100% certain it will take me several hours to dry fit all the right pieces together, haha. You made it look easy, but I'm sure there's more to it :)
This was really satisfying to watch. Great work.
Wow, what a terrific demo. I am tempted to give up using the PVC /compression style drain fittings customary in the area where I work as a kitchen and bath remodeler. Many thanks.
Thanks John!
Good information. Yet, I sense a Canadian vibe.🤓
Hello from San Diego.
And you're right about the vent in my kitchen. Dig the cheater vent.
Thank you.
Thanks for making this fantastic video with clear explanation! Great work!
Thank you! Cheers!
From South Florida (Broward) and mostly all of our drains for the kitchen comes from out the walls, even for our island drains. Thanks for explaining that the reason why the drain is coming from the ground is for freezing purposes because I was scratching my head on that one. Clean work & great video.
Thanks Shannon. I learn so much from the comments as well. Some things that I would have never thought about because our plumbing practices are different. Like water heaters in the attic or water heater earthquake restraints. Take care!
Most thorough video I've seen on DWV. Thank you for your explanations.
OK - wow, very well done. --- loved the plumbing code descriptions as well as the pro tips - that level technique is the best.
Absolutely text book! Occasionally I browse these and I won't give my opinion on most but this gentleman is good. The thing that amazes me is using ABS. I know different areas etc but in the tri state area you would be tarred and feathered by the inspector, supply houses, union hall etc.
Both my tailpieces rusted through (40yo) and i was about to call the plumber before i found your clear and precise video. I watched this one and the other one a few times, did a home depot run and a few hours later i was all done. Thanks so much for putting this together and being concise, more than saving a couple bucks, i learned how to do a bit of pipes fitting and played with abs cement. Cheers bud!

You did an amazing job making this a very educational video for a DIY plumber like me!
Thank you for the video. Not sure how companies get away with selling thin wall piping for sink drains, your way is so much better and really less of a hassle to install
Great Job! I re-did my drain pipes by following your instructions. Thank you so much!
Glad the video was helpful! Nice job on your project!
Well redo it....
Can you safely say this type of sink dimensions is standard? I have same setup as like show from the beginning video, however not sure if i should change it like the final black pipe setup. I dont have any issues at the moment. However making me wonder if I should change it before it does causes issues. First time watching your video. Looks fantastic.
I recently replaced both basket strainers in the kitchen. 6 months later, both leaked. Your's is the first video that I have watched that used the rubber washer on the top instead of plumbers putty. This does make sense to me as the putty seems to dry and harden. Also, washing dishes and pans seem to deflect the bottom of the sink and further compromise the putty seal. Does your experience prove out the practice of putting the black rubber gasket in the sink and then put the basket through the gasket?
@@michaelhendricks7117 It depends on the model of basket strainer. There has been a lot of questions regarding the basket strainer installation. I created a video that will hopefully help clear up any questions. How to Replace a Kitchen Sink Strainer: ruclips.net/video/IKFYFcO0kv0/видео.html

Watched about 20 videos on my dog shit kitchen plumbing. Was considering ripping it all out from the basment and doing it again form scratch. This saved a big headache for me. Great detail video and the horizontal dish washer stem eased my issues, thanks.
I watched several videos on this, and this was the most helpful. Thanks.
Thanks for the very fine info. It was the answer I needed to fix my problem.
Thanks for delivering such an exciting video. I hope to see more great videos like this in the future, keep the good work going on.
Perfectly produced and clearly described as you went. This was exactly what I needed to replace old corroded waste pipe on my double sink. I hadn't thought of the cheater valve or cleanouts- added those to the setup for just a couple of extra bucks. Trying to do this in the middle of pandemic, and ordering parts online I had found myself stuck not knowing what "that junction thingy" would be called on an online inventory, so your description of each part really helped.
Thanks John. Nice job on your project! Cheers!

The original drain pipe was such a Hack job, looked like something Stosh would do out on fhe farm. The New finished drain piping looks so nice, professionally done.
Thanks for video. Been wanting to redo my kitchen drain and you have made it a simple and easy. Found material list in the comments 👌 😎
This answers some of my questions, such as how much fall and I need to connect a pipe that is 2x pipe diameter in length, plus I do need a vent.
Thank you for showing detail connection.
This video was really helpful. I appreciate you taking the time to make it!
Great video. I bought a home in TN a few months back that was built in 2004 before they had code here and I have S traps under all my sinks. AAV are legal here and this is a good solution. Thanks!
Thank you! Congratulations on your home purchase! Take care.
"was built in 2004 before they had code here"
Waitwut?
So professional and so clean and easy to understand ,thanks you are a pro !
Thank you very much for the quick lesson, very informative and detailed.
Thank you very much.
Thanks for showing us the correct way to do this. My drain did not have a vent. Now I know what to add!
Nice job, I like the basket strainers you have. The ones we have in the UK are different, plastic and held in place with a screw instead of a large nut.
But that’s a nice neat installation, I like to do nice clean jobs like that myself. It takes time and sometimes a bit of thought depending on the setup you are presented with but is always worth the attention to detail and being done properly.
Same goes for the copper pipes and any other parts you add, I like to have them clean and functional and as neat and out of the way as possible.
A well fitted waste should be able to drain when the cold tap is on full with no restriction.
I also like the addition of a clean out for service in case of blockages.
We’re eliminating a disposal in a double sink setup almost identical to your scenario. Great video. Thank you. If you lived nearby, I’d gladly pay you to do the job.
This is the most helpful video I've seen for this project. Thank you!
Man, this one is the PRO video ! Thanks for sharing and doing fantastic work ! 🙏❤️
thank you for posting, very clearly explained.
Just did this exact build except I had to add my own drain from under the house and it worked fantastic added a p trap with a clean out as well as the clean out 2 right from where the drain enters the base flow is excellent for doing this my first time what a breeze.
Great work. piece by piece instuctions and informative. I wish other videos were like this video.
Beautiful work!
Thanks for sharing. I will save this for my next DIY job.
Very nice! Wish I had watched your video much earlier. My 1st time I did almost everything like you, but left off the air vent. My 2nd time I added the air vent. Thank you!
This is an excellent straight-forward tutorial. Thank you. Well appreciated 💐
Sure nice watching a Master in action. Thanks!
Great job teaching visually and with your words. Fantastic job showing other scenarios too!
Thanks for the kind words Daniel! Take care!
Thank you, Good Sir! Cleared up some questions I had myself.
I bought a house (mobile home) a couple of years ago that didn't have a vanity in the main bathroom. The vent came up almost dead center of the area. I didn't think to put a cleanout on the final product, but I sure wish I had. It took some work to get enough distance on the trapper. At least I knew about the siphon issue, but didn't know exactly what the minimum length should be, so I just made it as long as I could. Thanks for the handy tips like this during the installation!!!
So glad I found your vid bud. Thanks for posting.
Awesome, professional job!
Nice and clear presentation.
Beautiful install!
I recently removed an old IKEA kitchen sink base cabinet made of particle board. The board had slowly disintegrated and was not very pleasant to look at. The new one I made myself as I had my own ideas how to use the space. I used marine plywood, an absolutely excellent material. When I disassembled the old cabinet, I got an unpleasant surprise. I removed the doors, the sink, and the plumbing. Now, I live in climate with fairly warm and humid summers. When I started to detach the cabinet itself and thus separated the back wall of it from the kitchen wall, I got the surprise, the space between the walls was filled with cockroach like insects, some twenty of them. I had never seen them outside this space, so no cockroaches (they like wander around and also have antennas). I redesign the cabinet and removed the back wall, I cleaned and seal all cracks and holes in the kitchen wall and painted it with a heat and moisture resistant paint,
Conclusion: Don't have a back wall of the kitchen sink cabinet. It can be a breeding ground for bacteria, fungi and insects.
Professional looking work.
Nice and clean Installation really professional Great work
Thank you very much!
Awesome job, about the air flow
fabulous video, exactly what I am looking for! Thank you!
You are a saint! We are in a house built in the 1940s by my grandpa. It’s a underground poured concrete and there’s no in the wall plumbing as it’s inside each cabinet, except for the washing machine which just has an open 2” y, down two feet to a p trap. All our waste lines share one 6” cast iron drain as well as one 2” vent pipe that goes through the roof. Sooooo that being said: all I need to do to avoid siphoning the trap is allow at least 3” long straight diagonal abs going away from the trap? Because this is a code nightmare and I can not pull a plumbing permit. (the municipality’s inspector suggested he not walk into the house as we would be required to pull permits which would require things to be up to code to have said permits signed off on) you just answered every issue we’ve encountered with in just one of your videos. I just wanted to make sure I have this right.
Well done helped me a great deal plumbing my kitchen
Gees..what an excellent presentation!
thank you for being detailed and adding in the little things
Glad to see you using ABS over PVC and it's a lot better. Nice job ,but I would have made a swing joint to straighten the crooked drain line and move it to the back or side of the cabinet. Would have replaced the sink and faucet while I was at it.
It kind of depends on what it's already plumbed in. Since the drain pipe was ABS I'm sure that's why he used it. Had it been PVC he probably would have done PVC... 🤷♂️
Thank you for your time and effort in making these videos
Thanks , never heard of a cheater pipe ….. today you taught me something 👍👍👍
Wow! That cleared up a lot of issues I'm having. Ours wasn't plumbed right and no venting at all. I really hate doing plumbing but this will make my effort much more rewarding. Thank you for a GREAT video!!
That job looks very good & clean 👌 👍, Thanks for this awesome video .
Very clear and explanatory. Thanks for that. 👍👍👍
thanks for your excellent video... cleared up some mysteries for me
Glad I could help! Cheers!
Thanks for sharing this helpful video 👍
Very nice job!!! I'll be doing mine soon!!
Very Informative, thank you
Thank for your tutorial. I was able to repeat the same in my house and saved lots of money!
Awesome! Nice job on your project!
It's great! I did the same thing, I learned some great plumber tricks, I saved a lot of money and the ventilation is so efficient that I can see the Coriolis effect in it!
Really good video. Explains many significant issues.
