  • Fast Laundry Upgrade/Water And Waste!
    In today's video, we are taking you through a step-by-step process to upgrade your laundry drain, a project that's both cost-efficient and sure to boost the overall efficiency of your laundry room!
    We're going to guide you on how to choose the right size drain for your washing machine and other connected appliances, ensuring optimum water flow. You'll also learn the importance of correct drain slope, preventing any pooling or water trapping, with a guideline of a 1/4 inch slope per foot of run.
    But that's not all! We're diving into some plumbing specifics like the necessity for proper venting, which prevents gas build-up and promotes unrestricted water flow. And let's not forget the importance of having a properly installed trap to keep your home safe from unwanted sewer gases.
    To top it all off, we'll be discussing the significance of being code-compliant, ensuring your upgrade is not just efficient but also safe and legal.
    While we strongly advocate for professional installation, our video serves as an educational guide to help you understand the process. By the end of this video, you'll know exactly what's happening when your laundry drain gets an upgrade, making it easier to communicate with your professional plumber.

    Great demonstration and explanation. And, thank you for not having music, as is the case with other CZcams tutorials. Not having music helps me concentrate on what you are saying.

    I am just now repairing a damaged wall where the cheaply made washer outlet box allowed the water from leaky valves to drip into the wall cavity. The flimsy snap-in plastic pieces that the valves attach to have O-rings but don't come close to sealing water-tight, so water leaking from the valves dripped into the wall behind the drywall below over years (with no evidence looking at the valves themselves every day!) causing some expensive damage. Having lived through that, if I were installing in the situation here I would have run the supply lines over the top of the box and hanging down into the box, with the drain on the bottom. Any valve leakage would then end up in the drain, and more importantly be clearly visible when it started.
