Great job for the conditions you were working with. I would have loved to see the guys wearing safety glasses especially cutting out that old copper. Or just working overhead. Safety first 😎
Great job on the plumbing layout. You replaced the old pvc with black abs plastic. Look like some ABS fittings you used were CANPLAS brand. I’ve bought CANPLAS brand ABS fittings down in Kansas City out in Portland Oregon and down in Arizona. Lot of black ABS used in those areas 🙂
At the short pipe connection at the wall put what we old timers call a “ Dutchman”- a short piece of pipe that takes up the space between the new pipe and the stub at the wall. It will help to take compression of the clamp and make it stronger.
Sanitary t for the toilet really should be a Y connection Because of low flow toilets the old style connection gets clogged. Other than that everything looks good.
There is a coupling that is pretty short that you might want to look for its called a "cremco" on the west coast they're pretty rigid and handy in tight spaces for sturdy connections. But great work!
I just did a bit of research on them and they seem really neat! I’ve never seen one installed by us though, and I’m sure the supply houses by me don’t have them, but I may get one online to try soon!
I dont see a lot of long sweep elbows used in your work. In Massachusetts you have to use them for vertical to horizontal and horizontal to horizontal piping.
It may not be code where you are, it is done correctly here. The code differs from area to area. That’s common knowledge. Also, I have no idea what “heel venting” is, as it’s not mentioned even once in my code book. A “heel 90” is though , which is also allowed as a vent where we are, in certain orientations.
unless you work in New Jersey or Minnesota every state uses either IPC of UpC plumbing code- and for both this is a illegal vent for a wet vent connection.
If this wasn't a "wet vent" would this be considered proper venting? Heel venting on a horizontal is NOT a proper vet connection wet vent or not the vent connection is below the drain is never to code. im not trying to be a dick just pointing out this is not a proper vent connection, wet or not. Had you connected the tub /shower drain off the heel, the outlet of the wye would be pitched up creating proper vent. @@valenzaplumbing
@Jessedog11 Im sorry, but what is shown here is by the book correct. Above centerline for a vent connection is not required for a horizontal wet vent. Only for a dry vent. No hard feelings. Have a great day .
I don’t know who that is, but the teewye picking up the laundry drain is used correctly. It is not a “full s” trap because the vent is the 3” pipe is is tied into. They are okay to use vertically like shown here, or for certain venting applications on their back.
Looks like a fun day of work to me. Love plumbing!
That was a good job, I'm plugging your work on the socials...free advertisement, so I'm stealing your ideas!

Long sweet elbows are only required for 3” and larger piping. Thank you for watching.
iN MaSSaChUsEEts….lol. Them guys are still using the plumbing code Ben Franklin wrote
👍👍
Noice
Love seeing other guys I watch, watch the guys I watch 😂
Great work guys. Clean 🤙
Could have soldered a piece of that 3" copper to give yourself something nice to work from.
All of the 3” copper I removed was shot. Pinholes everywhere. If I had some type M I would have, but I’d have to buy a 10’ stick to use 4” of it lol.
@@valenzaplumbing I hear you good work!
the wet vent on the shower drain is not to code- you heel vented witch is not code.

@Jessedog11 I’m happy to learn something new if you can show me where this is incorrect in the 2018 IPC.
