    Good job man.
    2 things I learned last year:
    1/4" rise is crucial - if you go any higher, you risk having the water run down the pipe faster than the solids do.
    That means solids will linger and eventually create snag points for further, snags and eventually clogging - possibly.
    Can reduce this by using the 1/4" rise.

      I haven't had luck posting sources so here's a quote that debunks that, you can google it:
      "Myth To Rest
      (...) Of course, I found out that the professor was setting me up. This lead to the presentation of a new equation. The equation calculated the minimum flow rate to keep solids in suspension in a sewer system. The inverse of the equation calculated the maximum pitch before the liquids ran away from the solids. Of course, the answer to the maximum pitch was infinity. In other words, you could never reach that point."

    Quarter inch rise because you start at the bottom or clean out and go up, not 1/4” fall. The vent on the shower is over pipe diameter for grade, will syphon out probably. And tough to tell in the video, but min 2” wet vent on toilets. Plus toilet is over graded. The poopoo will be sticky sticky on the pipes

    I’m a licensed plumber and this is mostly good advice. Just check the pitch on your pipe. 2in pipe should have 1/4” fall. 3in and 4in pipe should have 1/8” pitch. Also the location of your vent is off. If you’re going to be doing plumbing yourself you should consult with the local inspector before you run any pipe. Depending on your jurisdiction they should allow one free consultation per permit. Also if you need dimensions on the fixtures you’re going to be setting, you can request a submittal page from the manufacturer that should have the recommended dimensions

    Depending on state and city ..... some measurements and facts given may vary some....... for example, its ideal to grade trunk line between 1/8" to 1/4" of fall per foot. Any more and your liquids out run your solids leaving them behind which can build up and cause a stoppage. Good video ...... just check local and state regulations and codes.

    But you need to stay as closest possible to the quarter-inch fall per foot or rise, as you called it.
    Any fall that drops faster than a quarter inch per foot you will have liquid separating from solid, and that will create a clog!!!

    @AnimalFries Před 4 lety +2

    I always like when plumbing vids are recommended to me! This was a nice find. I'm seeing a bunch of "too much slope" comments though. This does not apply to plastic piping. Go look inside your pvc/abs piping. Notice it's really smooth and slick. Now wet it. Its gets really slippery, and will not catch anything. Your toilet flushes with a little over a gallon of water. All that water will carry any solids all the way to your city sewer tap or septic tank with proper pitch. Some codes say atleast ⅛" for 3", others say ¼" for 3". Now go look inside cast iron piping. It's not so slick, and actually quite rough on the inside compared with plastic piping. The "too much slope" idea came about with this cast iron piping. Inspectors were worried that with too much slope, water would flow faster than solids, leaving solids behind due to the rough surface of the cast iron. Just something you may consider next time. You're fine with the slope you have. I'm sure you've never had any problems with this rough in.

    The toilet is missing a vent. The shower venting will not work, you broke the plane. If the the 2 inch wye fitting was flat and not on a slant it would work. you do not need a 3 inch cleanout inside of a small cabin or house. The toilet is considered a cleanout since you can remove it. The overall look was good and layout looked straight. 12 1/2 inches from from framing to toilet center is perfect since most people forget about drywall when they say 12".

    • @mikecarney8023
      @mikecarney8023 Před 2 lety

      I believe the code states that vents must connect to a horizontal drain at a minimum 45° angle. Meaning you could not use a tee or a wye to connect a vent to a drain if all pipe connections are coplanar (flat). I think his layout looks good, but if the 2 inch wye were flat, it would be… not good.

    Your drain and vent going out need to equal the same area per code, minimum drain slope is 1/8" which needs to be engineered. You shouldn't use anymore than 1/4" because your liquid will flow past your solids. That way it will take it all down and not leave solids in your drain line.

    Enjoyeyed your video. But one thing wrong. The 1/4” rise is so that the water won’t run off and leave the waste. You always need to stay with the 1/4” rise.

      The main line actually continues past and the 3 inch line will eventually be made into the vent. In the video I just placed a cleanout fitting on it.

    What about a composting facility? It is quite a walk to your home from my vantage point of view. You know, once you start building even basic needs become 2nd place😄. Will you have a sink? Small kitchen counter? You know for coffee, washing hands or bricks. I would have a small cooler for refreshments. It promises to be quite cozy in the winter.

    • @BevinsBuilds
      @BevinsBuilds  Před 5 lety +1

      Its far but not to terribly far away. From the house im 164 ft :) and yes in the winter I am sure I will desperately want a bathroom lol. I do want a small full bathroom at some point complete with a shower but that will probably be a project that will wait until next year. But the ultimate plan when I can do it is with the shower it will be used as a washing station for lego and then I would also have a toilet and small sink as well. Possibly even a small wet bar/kitchen as well. Just big enough for snacks and maybe some plates and glasses. My priority this year is to get it wired and insulated so I can get back to building lego. Which is going to be a rather large task itself being I will be doing it all solo for the most part.

      @@makitagut2472 Thanks Makita I appreciate it. If you lived locally I would invite you over :) as for the electrical. I really wanted to have a new service installed but wow the price for new service is pretty expensive. The electrical wasnt to bad (1700) but the natural gas line was outrageous (4200) i still dont understand why it would be such a huge coat difference. As if anything the electrical should have been the most expensive in my opinion.

      It is funny I actually just responded to this on another thread. The thousand gallon tank number one I actually missed spoke it was 750 gallons but number to the price tag on that now is considerably higher. This was listed at my local Menards for $182 at the time of purchase and I only paid $182 but it's because they had it mismarked they actually corrected the price the day that I purchased it and now I believe they are between five and six hundred dollars.

    If you install a sand/cement shower or a Schluter shower there is an additional curb you may want. Their dimensions are larger than an acrylic shower base. That would likely be added onto the 30” dimension of the shower. And that would mean your toilet would need to be moved over another 4” or so.

      The clean out will end up being the vent. But this is just roughed in for the concrete to be poured and where the cleanout is placed will eventually be the actual vent and will be extended all the way up through the rough. The system will work though as is though even using the 2 inch line as a vent.
