Hello
I need to tap into a 3" drain and water line in my basement utility room to install a new washer. I was going to tap into it with a 3" x 3" x 2" sanitary tee. However, there is no flex in the 3" existing pipe for me to simply install the fitting. Do I just need to use a couple of 3" flexible rubber couplings to attach the fitting (with some 3" PVC) to the existing pipe? Something like this coupler (Fernco 3 in. x 3 in. PVC DWV Mechanical Flexible Coupling P1056-33 - The Home Depot)
I would put it right below the cleanout plug.
Would the use of these couplers be in accordance to code?
