Hi Roger thanks for the awesome video. I have Covid and it’s not a lot of fun. I feel like a truck ran over me but hopefully it will go away soon. Take care of yourself Roger I’ll be seeing you.
My gag reflex was going off lol. Total utmost respect to plumbers 🫡. Thank you, Roger, I needed this video for both my bathroom sinks. Previous owner made a rollercoaster out of the drain pipes.
Whats better for the neck, plastic or metal? Most new faucets all come with plastic necks and connections. What can cause more smell from the drain over time? Ive replaced many, I always leave a paper towel under neath for a day or two. If its bone dry, I know everyhting is solid
Is it common to see the stub out and fixture outlet not line up nicely? Like you said this was offset at 22 1/2. Are they using a less common fitting angle to make up for it? I’ve been told that 99% of the time I’ll use 45 and 90s but would this call for the 22 1/2 fitting?
Roger, you left a leak where the pop up assembly gasket meets the bottom of the bowl. You can see that it has been leaking for a long time because of the grunge buildup on the threads beneath the nut.
What about retrofitting a P-trap with a mechanical vent where an S-trap used to be without opening up the walls? In my area, I think this is a more common problem than the accordion.
I did this not that long ago at my house. Got creative but it’s been leak free. When I was working on my vanity my dad dumped a bucket of water down the drain and onto my head.
Use your cordless shop vac while you undo the trap if its too low for a bucket! Why use tubular? Just a common thing for certain areas? Usually just hard pipe with a union trap.
They do make accordions with a liner so it doesn't do that.. it's really an only option use for me. I have on in my downstairs bathroom because of how everything lined up I just couldn't get anything to line up right
So my main question is are accordions not good to use at all? I’m doing a small remodel in my garage bathroom and I literally just bought one at Lowe’s.
The contractor, when installing the vanity, replaced the metal pipes and installed accordion lines and within one month they were black. Is this code compliant? They never returned to repair the leaks and the cabinet is already ruined.
They are illegal in North America. Drain lines must be a smooth surface. S-Traps are also illegal Should of just used a 1-1/4” p-trap and the 1-1/2 slip nut and 1-1/2-1-1/4 slip nut washer at the marvel adapter They had too much pitch on the 22-1/2. Trap on an angle. Should of cut out behind the 22-1/2 and repipe it Use your 1-1/2 p-traps on kitchen, and laundry tubs.
There is ALWAYS a way to make rigid pipe work. Takes a bit of work sometimes but usually not. Thanks Roger!
Intro is gold 😂
Nice, thank you for that demo
You're welcome! I hope it helps.

Good education🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤🇮🇩
its good you use the sevice one's, i find sum plumbers use the glue one so no one can service the system. I remove them and put the seviceable ones.

I replaced two of those accordion drains today. Those suck

Elite intro
I was hoping you would go full PVC

😢 scam artist
They are not code compliant. Contractors cheap way of getting house finished. All you need is a straight tail piece.
Accordian pipes are only good for pop up trailers, the sink typically folds down
P trap vs S trap ?
if you got paid by the hour that was a $600 job........ 🤣🤠

Roger have you wear mask not COVID but respiratory problems?
Yikes
Big yikes
10th comment. Yeet
You get a wooden metal!
Roger, I'm a fan, but I SURE could've done without the opening 20 seconds or so of this video!!
Don't listen to this one Roger. Your glorious!! Take that hefty dump. Blame the camera guy lmao
Lighten up
