How To Vent Plumbing Pipe - Toilet, Bathroom Sink, and more!

Published 2023-09-17
In this video, I show you how to vent plumbing pipe. I will show how to vent a toilet, how to vent a bathroom sink, and how to vent plumbing without going through the roof using an air admittance valve, also known as a Studor vent. I will be venting a utility sink in a garage as well. The outdoor kitchen sink drain will require me to use a air admittance valve to vent properly. #plumbing #diy

UPDATE: Regarding the height of the horizontal vent pipe from the bathroom sink shown at 10:35, it has been brought to my attention that it's currently too low. According to plumbing standards, it should be positioned at 42 inches off the floor or 6 inches above the flood rim of the sink. In my practice, I prefer connecting these vents in the attic, which is considered the optimal choice. I'm committed to providing the most informative content, and I appreciate your feedback. I'll make sure to address issues like this promptly in the future. Apologies for any confusion, and thank you for watching!

    Great video! You mentioned being careful not to use too much pressure when applying the glue, and I just wanted to note a trick that I've learned is to pinch the applicator rod instead of holding the lid during the application. That way you're not putting stress on the connection where the rod attaches to the lid and you're able to make it through an entire bottle of glue without the applicator breaking off! Thanks for you videos, always helpful!
