    What size test-cap for an ABS 2" -> 1.5" slip joint adapter

    Hoping this is an easy question for the gurus here - but I've searched for a while and can't figure it out as my measurements don't seem to map to various thread dimension charts. I have a standard 2" ABS vent pipe that has a 1-1/2 threaded trap adapter coming out of the wall. I need to cap...

    Should I have put a 3”clean out here?

    Wasn’t planning on. We are on the softer side of spectrum for water. This is a relocate of existing laundry that doesn’t have softener and hasn’t been a problem. I did consider one of those ozone machine things to eliminate detergent - but decided it’s probably snake oil after watching a few...

    Should I have put a 3”clean out here?

    i think that is correct. it was whatever the right combination i needed to get the vent plumb. wish they labelled them clearly on the ABS - seems like I'm always trying to guess a 45 vs a 60 or something...

    All fixed. Thanks for the help! Btw - I’m blaming the concrete guys for the lean on my 3” coming out the slab

    How the heck do you stop the brushes snapping off the lid?

    Should I have put a 3”clean out here?

    If I understand this comment correctly I would install a 3:3:3 sanitee coming out the slab (with a cleanout), and then a 3:3:2 sanitee branching 2" off to p-trap and then a 3:2 reducer above that to the 2" vent. Is this any different from installing a 3:3:3 sanitee coming out the slab (with a...

    Should I have put a 3”clean out here?

    First time doing DWV work... Adding a new washer stub out. Even though I only needed 2” sewer - I ran 3” underslab to this location incase I ever remodel and want a toilet here. I reduce to 2” coming out the slab and then it’s all 2” from there including vent. Of course right after I glued that...

    1 1/2" exposed chrome p-trap to 2" ABS - what slip joint?

    Cool - thanks. I'll swap the sanitee - not glued up yet. My sanitee location already close to front of stud - so I'm not confident a reducer bushing plus 1.5 trap adapter would stay within the escutcheon. Was hoping there was such a thing as a 2:1.5 trap adapter fitting. thanks for the help -...

    1 1/2" exposed chrome p-trap to 2" ABS - what slip joint?

    Doing my first sink install... sink has exposed plumbing - and so will use 1.5" chrome p-trap. I have 2" ABS for drain and vent. This seems like such a basic question - but how do I best transition from the 2" sanitee to the 1.5" chrome p-trap. I was hoping for a 2" ABS slipjoint that has 1.5"...
