    White PVC bath drain kit connect to ABS p-trap

    Apparently it is not normal to have the drain right under the bath drain (it was hard to find the piece like mine) (thank you plumbingsupply.com). So now I have the correct parts...however now ironically I have so many parts that it looks like (to me) I have two valid ways to connect tail to the...

    Air Vent needs moved

    Thanks for the reply: dang it! I knew I should have bought a tub that could handle above the floor piping (like the old tub) (seems like most of the tubs/shower combos today are for below the subfloor piping). No, I was not planning on doing anything else in the bathroom.

    Air Vent needs moved

    Hello, The previous tub/shower combo that I ripped out allowed for the air vent to be above subfloor (as seen by pics). Of course :), the new tub Delta Classic 400 won't allow this. Any suggestions on what to do with this vent. This alcove is on 2nd floor of 2 story residential, Ohio. Thank you.
