I'd like to try do DYI on a new kitchen sink and half bath that I've posted about b4
The #1 issue right now is cutting out some cast and connecting PVC there is old cast all on the horizontal run. I'd rather do the new hook ups to PVC
The 2nd floor stack I am leaving. it looks good in the chase coming down and it works well
plus I am not confident I can tear it out and re-do the 2nd floor bath I'm not confident to do that. But the stuff I would connect to PVC is pretty simple I feel I can
do it after getting advice on how to vent it from the forum experts.
I would Firnco PVC to Cast and this seems pretty easy. I also understand cutting cast can be tricky. The stack from the 2nd floor in the pic is not supported as far as I can see inside the wall coming down but the horizontal portion it is tied into has 2 U supports hung from floor joists on either side right near the connection. I may try to support the stack if I can in the wall it comes down in a chase and I removed the face not much room in there though.
if anyone has an caution or two and plumber experience advice that I should be on the lookout for I'd sure appreciate it. I am not going to try this until I am confident
I can indeed do it.
Thanks!
