sanitary tee

I am installing a water softener on the side of my house. Almost directly below the loop, I have access to the sewer line with a 3" clean out plug. There is an 8" run from the plug to the side of the house where I'd like to run the PVC to air gap. Here is what I've come up with. Please let me...

Is there such double fixture tee with 1-1/4 inch on the side? I want to use a double fixture tee to convert single vanity to double vanity. But the stud width is narrow and only allow 1-1/4inch PVC pipe to penetrate through without disrupting the stud integrity. Obviously the 1-1/4inch will then...

I am trying to add a shower drain to an existing tub drain. The existing tub drain is 1-1/2'' and has a dry vent. I am wondering if I can use a horizontal double wye tee with a slope to merge the new shower drain to the dry vent and tub drain. I know horizontal double sanitary tee is not allowed...

First pic shows what I believe would be a standard install. P-Trap + P-Trap elbow, connected to a vent. Second pic shows using a sanitary tee RATHER than the elbow that came with the P-Trap, functioning as both the P-Trap elbow and as the vent coming out the top. Are there any issues with this...

Hi all, My question is: Is there an advantage or disadvantage to using a sanitary tee over a wye + 45 vertically for drain/venting purposes? Do wye + 45 fitting have any purpose in a stack application? I checked the forums and have never seen this discussed. I know sanitary tees are never...

I'm adding a 2nd sink, about 3ft over from the existing drain that is tee'd directly onto the vent. Can I simply glue a sanitary tee right above the existing one, and then run pvc over about 3 ft through the studs? If I remember correctly, 3 ft is close enough to the vent, just not sure about...
