The bottom of the 1 1/2" galvanize pipe for the existing kitchen sink seems to be a threaded end but it goes go a CI hub (old house so it's CI main pipe). Not sure if it's in fact joined w/ lead to the hub. Attached photo: So the P-trap and the trap arm for the laundry sink needs to be...

Hi, I have an existing 1 1/2" galvanized drain pipe servicing the kitchen sink. I want to add a wall mount laundry sink in the garage that is behind the kitchen wall, so it would be sharing this 1 1/2" galvanized drain pipe. Is 1 1/2" galvanized drain pipe good enough to serve both sinks, or...

Hi, The line you crossed out is the existing main line where the rest of the bathrooms's drains (tub, shower, sink) come into, I don't think I can throw all that away. Here's the drawing hope this clarifies.

The main stack (2" vent) is about 2 feet away. I've updated the picture in the original post to include the main stack. A quick question: the max distance from a drain to the nearest vent needs to be within 5 feet. Does that refer to the actual horizontal run thru' the piping (in this...

I'm trying to find a way to keep from moving where the supply gas line comes up from the crawspace. As you can see the install manual recommends area height for gas valve/outlet to be between 7" to 15". I can at least lower the gas valve location to that level. However, the gas valve is...

Hi there, Just installed a gas range, but realize the gas shutoff valve is 3" out from the wall (26 1/2" height) so the gas range cannot be flush to the wall. Is there a way to modify the gas shutoff valve such that it's inside the wall/flush along the wall so the gas range can be...

I tried rotating the chrome pipe and it just cracked. Any suggestions? Heat it up a bit before trying it again?

Hi, Have a question about this spot in the bathroom sink where it seems the P-trap connection to the wall plumbing seems to be welded and I am not able to remove it. Two questions: 1. Is the current P-trap connection funnctionally workable (does it still perform adequately as a P-trap)...
