Cleanout or No?? (more questions)
I'm not sure whether I need a clean out or not.
I am rerouting my main sewer exit. Right now the line crosses at about 5', and it's a pain to duck under it. I am going to run it down the wall, bury it under the floor for about a 9' run. The joint pictured will be under concrete joining the main line to outside, and if I use the clean out I will have to make a metal lid in the floor. There will be a clean out at the other end of the 9' run that connects to the T. If I don't use a clean out, I'll just use a second 90 elbow instead of the T and bury it in concrete. Since it's kind of a double 90 compound curve, I thought maybe a clean out was necessary. There are no code issues, it's out in the country.
Thanks.
