I want to talk to you a little bit about plumbing riser diagrams and why they're so complex
0:17
And guess what? I can draw yours. Let's get started. So here I'm on a plumbing job here in Greenville, Maine
0:23
This is a four inch stack we had to put in. We had to tie in down here to the existing building drain under the building
0:29
the gravel. This is a 4x2 Y that's going to take care of boiler condensate. There's a clean
0:36
out. You come up the stack. You come around here. There's some Ys. We had to throw a Y off for a
0:42
sink in a breakfast area. This is the loop vent for the kitchen sink. Here's the washing machine
0:48
Four inch pipe continues. Look at this. We keep going down, keep going down, down, down
0:54
Look at this. Big 4x3 Y here. Because over here, we've been
0:59
pick up another bathroom here on the first floor. And then that stack there goes up right here
1:09
Here's a stack that goes up to a second floor bathroom. It gets better. All right. Here's a
1:16
three by two Y that services a master bathroom sink And then it goes over here to a sink way up on a second floor here is a Y that going to take care of the master bathroom tub and shower
1:31
here's the master bathroom toilet right here and of course this is the vent for the
1:38
toilet so see how complex it is you think you could do that you know the pipe sizes I doubt
