Hello,
I have a few questions about Copper DWV. I'm renovating a house that previously had all copper DWV. As needed I'm splicing in ABS with the Copper using Mission couplings.
In the current bathroom I'm working on I have 2 situations where I need to join to 1" copper. One is a drain from a sink to a 3" stack--all I'm doing here is capping the drain as it will not be used. I can't find mission couplings for 1" copper. I guess I need to use some other rubber type coupling but am looking for suggestions.
The other situation is where the drain becomes a vent, the copper changes from 1 1/2" to 1". I'm going to replace the whole line down to the stack with 2" ABS but I wanted to leave the roof penetration until I get a new roof. Is it OK to leave a small section of 1" copper at the top of the vent...If so, any ideas on how to connect 1" copper to 2" ABS.
Thanks for any help you can provide,
Mike
