Greetings from a new user,
I have an early 60s home that I am currently renovating and am replacing the entire main stack and all sanitary plumbing as it is copper and has signs of corrosion.
My house has a main stack, where the upstairs toilet, shower, sink, as well as kitchen sink tie into. It also has a secondary soil stack from the downstairs toilet, which has the downstairs sink, kitchen sink tied into which then vents into the main stack when it reconnects upstairs above the flood level of all fixtures.
This secondary stack is a 1 1/2" copper pipe that runs directly into a cast iron wye with a clean out. After removing the copper, how would I connect a 1 1/2" abs pipe into the cast iron fitting? Is there a rubber bushing, or some product that works for this? Can I use 3" to 1 1/2" abs bushing, and if so, how do you secure it into the cast iron.
Thanks heaps for the help!
