Well good luck with your projects. Let me know if you have any questions.

Get social with me.
I hope this video helped you. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for the work doing this presentation. You are right that there aren't many plumbing under slab videos on youtube. I'm doing something similar next week. This video and maybe a half dozen others have given me what I need to accomplish my task.

[joea]

Thank you so much for taking the time and giving us a walk through I'll be starting my project soon and this is helping me grow my understanding and getting ideas. ! Great Video.

[scottcped]

Thank you VERY MUCH FOR DOING THIS! Huge help!

[scooter]

Thank you for taking the time to teach us that are considering doing our own plumbing project😊👍

[guadalupeluna]

I like your green shirt.
Thanks for the video.

Future reference for others. Size, don't oversize in drainage pipes. If oversize or too much slope, the solids get left, as the liguids drain away too fast, or don't wash the walls. 3 inch will run a whole house up to 3 baths.
I should do a under slab video for the community.
So many savings that could be realized, by more combination drain and vent properly.
Great work on n a rough site with those rocks. Mostly right on.

for the powder bathroom I would have use one 4" y then a 4x2 y with an 8th bend to catch the sink....running one pipe instead of two

[deesmith]

Just a tour of someone else's completed job. Would be helpful to the rest of us if actual actions were reviewed. How did you dig? How did you put down the pipe? how did you level? How did you make sure the pipe was supported underneath so that when you replaced the soil, the pipe didn't bend under the weight?

Did all this plumbing pass inspection?

[radioguy]

be interested to see a diagram of how it all works, and how deep to prevent freezing in winter.

[ajlombardi]

Do you backfill these trenches or just pour on the plumbing directly

[brky]

Thanks so much for your videos! I know you reference YouTube videos for plumbing underneath a house. Is that how you learned plumbing, electrical, and other trades, from YouTube videos?

[shane]

Im a total amateur here. Is it ok to tie sinks/showers/floor drains all into the same drain your toilets use? I understand you use p traps but im just concerned about the possibility of sewage backflow into my non-sewage drains. Again, I know nothing about this stuff but welcome any advice. Planning on building in may and need to get this rough in stuff knocked out in April. Also, how do you know exactly where to center your toilet drains? Are all toilets pretty much the same distance from the back wall?

[adelecarvalho]

How much should someone expect to pay for rough-in plumbing for a new structure, connecting to a pre-existing well and septic tank?

[nursegilbey]

Do you have to get an inspection at this point before the structure and slab pouring?

[JasonEmery]

Very informative. How much did that septic tank cost? Where did you get it?

[crystalswaggerstick]

So you don't need p trap for showers?

[thekinginyellow]

First, thanks for making the video. Why did you choose PVC over ABS? Out here in my part of Nor-Cal, no one uses PVC for waste. Not sure if it's code or custom though.

[hoangkybactien]

The septic tank looks big. 3, 000 gallons?

[markrossmiller]

Why do rough in plumbing before planting poles and perimeter concrete forms? What are your references to line up water and sewer connections so they line up?
