The drains installed on the wall behind you are not done correctly. You cannot connect a drain to a vent with a Y, it will not vent properly.
Why are you using a double combination wye and 1/8 bend instead of a 2 x 1 1/2 inch sanitary cross???
All drainage is wrong. All of it. Here in NJ inspector would red tag it and say rip it all out. I know people say armchair warriors but I’m a licensed nj plumber of 25 years and this just made my eyes roll Perhaps in whatever state this is it’s ok. But I highly doubt it
2 things I found funny, he contradicts himself. He talks about laying a sweep flat instead of a 90 but then lays a San tee flat which is the same thing. Then he talks about not stacking tees because the wet vent (legal and will work fine if done properly) will cut off the vent from the other lav but then puts a double y with 45s which actually cuts off both lavs from the vent making an s trap. The purpose of the vent is not only for flow but to provide air so the water doesn’t create a vacuum and suck the traps dry. The set up he has could very easily do this and will probably gurgle.
good information thanks!
Boo
The way that shower was vented wouldn’t pass in Texas at least not that I know of normally we put a sanitary tee under the vent with a p-trap connected straight into it & then use a 90 under the tee to take it through the main pipe
I am a licensed plumbing contractor for the state of California and I can say with confidence that there are so many mistakes in this video.
I hope no listens to this guy. He has some many plumbing code issues he not even aware of. He would fail in Illinois all day long.
