Thanks, Cookie. I have already had the camera run. There was about 1/2" or less water in some parts but nothing was said to me about that being dips so I don't know what constitutes a 'dip'. Also...

I need to replace the 4" lateral on my 54 yr old house due to roots. Currently cleaning out every 3 months but sometimes that is not sufficient. Based on common building methods in my area I...

So check valve closest to WH drain. Thanks, HJ.

Last time I researched this subject this thread wasn't here. It's been helpful to me.
I'm finally ready to install this type of system and have a question.

In all the discussions I've read the...

Thanks. My install will not run a staight, constant slope. At the final 25% or so of the return I will have at least 2 elbows to drop below an electrical panel and then a 45 to get it to the WH...

I want to run a return line in my 55 yr old Ranch style house in order to use the convection circulation to reduce the waiting time for the hot to travel 50 ft to the far bathroom. My water heater...

I have several old brass angle valves that leak at the stem packing and where the bonnet fits to the body. I am unable to find a source for a rebuild kit. These valves are 1" & !-1/4", probably...

I'm planning on adding an ABS wye into an iron pipe sewer line (lateral) because my present cleanout is no longer accessable. It's 2ft below the surface of a lawn, just outside my foundation. I'm...

I'd like to thank everyone who replied for the helpful infomation and than Terry Love for hosting such a beneficial forum.

My neighbor was charged $175 for a video look-see. The city is redoing the water/sewer/street in the surrounding neighborhood. They sent everyone a letter suggesting we check our sewer line before...

Thanks, I didn't think they were stainless. Guess they sell better one due to the application.

>I would call a drain cleaner that will give a free video check.

Unfortunately, that is not the case here. My neighbor called around and the best price he got was $175.

My sewer cleanout is in a short crawlspace with less than 6 in. clearance to a furnace plenum so it's really not usable. The bell end with the brass cleanout (which is frozen into place) is on the...
