I have a couple of office chairs that are about a year old. They do not stay elevated so we contacted Office Depot regarding the 5-year warranty. We were told the warranty is only valid in the UK and Middle East. There is no warranty if their products are sold in the United States. I closed...

It is the perfect tool for emergency escape from your underground bunker after the acid rain has stopped falling. WHAT??? You don't have an underground bunker?!?!?!?

Cap it lower if you want, just keep it accessible. Cleanouts are like HP on boat motors. There is no penalty for having too much but it really sucks to not have enough.

It is the cleanout access for your building sewer. Cap it and create an access door through the deck. Someday you will be VERY glad you did.

88, Just remember that YOU asked... That's a freaking travesty. :eek: You should have called a Plumber for that repair. Bury your torch and solder in the backyard and never touch them again.

At least you'll have the tank for the trip back.

@mildewman Your problem originated with your home warranty, not the Plumber(s). Seldom (if ever) do homeowners receive top notch service from companies hired by home warranty scam artists. And yes, all home warranties are scams. PERIOD. @frodo You are so wrong. I personally have given you...

There are no bad faucets, only bad faucet owners. **laughs hysterically at own joke** Post a pic of the offending piece of scrap brass, then the answer you seek shall be forthcoming.

I believe what you are describing is a Combination Waste & Vent, not a Wet Vent.

Maintenance. Sanitary tees are only allowed in a vertical position. The wye removes any risk of the water not flowing the right direction or a cable not going the right direction when gravity alone cannot be your helper. On a vertical fitting, gravity trumps all. On a horizontal fitting...

First place to look for a good career is in the mirror.

Skip... Re-read ^^^. A wye, not a sanitary tee. Cut it out and do it over.

Gawd da**** Frodo! Now I have BizBrew spilled all over my keyboard. :D

Maybe a homemade macerating toilet.

You're not going to get a shower plumbed in correctly the way it is now.

Do we even want to know what this is is doing in the bathroom? :eek:

No. No. You're best bet is to open the floor and go into the branch with a wye. Even then, you won't gain any depth to speak of after you put in the p-trap. You were going to do a trap, right?

River rock in custom showers is actually pretty common. Especially upscale outdoor showers by pools. Using concrete for the base is fine but doesn't serve any useful purpose. Use a Kerdi underlayment system, thinset for the rocks and then grout. Fun project, but when (if) you finish it...
