    Greg,
    I have really enjoyed all your videos. I have only gotten permits where needed. But I sometimes watched a particular video 3 times to really understand. Then I asked plumber friends.
    Thank you so much. My home and my duplex rental.........

    would it be possible to add a 3rd fixture (washing machine) on top that double lavatory wet vent?

    Great video.,.
    However my idea is instead of back to back , (saniflo is what I'm using) and the next room is a closet that will be turned into a bath and toilet..
    How can I connect the vent and waste line .?
    Planning a walk in shower for both and change the tub on the previous bathroom..
    Thank you have a blessed day and be blessed

    I have a crawl space under my home. Am adding a new bathroom & will be 20' from main line. When adding fittings to main line, Can you use a slip coupling & mark the pipe for maximum glue area ? Your video is excellent, The part I am trying to understand how you got the fittings on the main line without movent of either end of existing main line. And the dimension for center of toilet drain from finished wall is12.5 inches ?

    Greatful for these videos, very helpful and easy to understand. Thank you. Based on your comment it may be a problem if you have a home with interior beams and perimeter footings, What is a good solution to get around this? Or workaround for adding plumbing with beam in the way? Or typically what is common practice used by professionals for this type of situation? Tunneling?

    • @gregvancom

      I don't have an easy fix for beams that might need to be relocated or floor framing modifications. You might find something helpful at our website in the crawlspace section.

    For the bathtub could you have done a double sanitary tee?

    • @gregvancom
      @gregvancom  Год назад

      Most plumbers won't do it, because it can create problems when trying to run a drain cleaning snake through on side and hoping it will turn and go down, but instead comes out the other side. Maybe a double fixture tee might work, but you would need to check local building codes to verify.

    Question why is the waste of the lavatories at an angle and not coming out straight out?

    • @gregvancom
      @gregvancom  Год назад +1

      Some times it works better for the waste pipe installation. You shouldn't have a problem hooking up the sink drain as long as the pipe angle is correct.

    Kind of a silly question, but are you going to put in a window for your new bathroom?

      Not silly and you can have a window or exhaust fan usually approved by most building codes.

I was actually referring more to the illustration used than any wording that you used. I noticed you used the wye fitting as well as a sanitiee next to each other with both being horizontal in the video (at 5:53), and just thought it was worth mentioning.

      ​@@gregvancom Hi Greg, KY code is really all I know but your reference to IPC 906.2 got mr curious. That 906.2 section is titled "Vents OTHER THAN stack vents or vent stacks".
      Your plan was for a 3" main waste drain, a 3" waste stack (serving 2 - 3" W.C's), with a 2" stack vent. Section 913.3 Stack vent says .......
      "A stack vent shall be provided for the waste stack. The size of the stack vent shall be not less than the size of the waste stack." ...... which is 3".

      @@bobrub I would think this section (913) is referring to more than one story with a vertical stack, like a house with a basement and one floor above or two story house where you might need the same diameter pipe for vent as waste. Every drawing I saw referring to a stack vent had all of the plumbing drains for a single bathroom on each separate floor going into one main vertical soil and waste stack, unlike my design that had three pipes going into the horizontal waste drain with three common vents. I have a question, would you need to run a waste stack if you had a drain pipe layout like this?
