I moved into a new construction home and am currently finishing the basement. I put a utility sink in and also want to add a small sink for a Bar I am going to build. I am attaching a picture of how I currently hooked up the pump I am using to drain the sink. My plan is to add a different style pump (pic also attached) and discharging out the same line I have tied into the main drain line. The thing I am questioning is venting. Do I have to vent? If yes tying into the vents in the attic isn't an option. Do I just vent out the side of the house? I could run pvc out like my furnace vents currently are. Or can I do a vent less cap on it since its just water I am draining and there shouldn't be any gas or smell. Looking for some feedback. Thanks.
My vent and washer drain trap tie into the main soil stack in the basement. The fit up was done poorly in my opinion and could be tucked tighter to the wall, which would allow me to move my washer/dryer closer to the wall and away from basement daylight entrance. It is all PVC so I need to cut and splice.
I am going to build the assembly first and then cut and splice last. I think there is enough play in the horizontal run to the stack that I can hard pipe everything, but if not, is it legal to use a fernco fitting?
Second question, is there anything i can/should do to keep escaping septic gasses from filling the basement while I am making my connection? Or just try to work quickly?
Hi all,
How do I fasten this tube that is going to my whole house humidifier? When i turn on the water, it came loose and spray water all over?
